Otherworld

Gabi Abrão grew up with a Brazilian father who believes everything in the physical world is connected to the spiritual. When Gabi and her sister would lose a toy, he taught them to call upon a deity that commands "the souls of the spirit children" for help finding the item. In high school, she had a health teacher who secretly did psychic experiments with the students.

She has a lot of strange stories from her unusual childhood and eccentric father but the real reason I wanted to talk to her was about something that happened very recently involving Astral Projection. Gabi started experiencing this as an adult, and after having a very vivid and specific astral projection journey, she ended up meeting somebody who had been to the same place.

If you want to hear more stories from Gabi, I am putting lots of bonus stuff and a video version of the entire interview on the Otherworld Patreon later this week. This one was edited down to focus on Astral Projection but she has lots of crazy stories about Ghosts, Witchcraft and her dad's adventures in the spirit realm.

Last week, Alex told the story of his encounter with what he believes to be Bigfoot.

In this episode, we talk to Alex's roommate, Julian, about what happened when Alex got back from his horrifying trip, and what happened when they decided to go back into the woods where it all started.

Here is the thermal video taken very close to where the guys were camping.

A man named Alex had a prolonged and terrifying encounter with what he believes to be Bigfoot. But this story is very different from what most of us are probably used to when we think of the infamous Cryptid, and it raises questions about what Bigfoot could possibly be.

During the Covid-19 lockdown, Alex needed an escape and decided to go camping in the Uwharrie National Forest by himself. The park was closed and off-limits, but he found a very isolated spot and hiked in all by himself to set up camp. Upon entering the woods, he described an electric static feeling coming over his body—a sense of crossing over a veil—and started to experience what can only be described as telepathic impressions. Over the course of the day and night, Alex experienced a series of bizarre and terrifying events that left him confused and traumatized. Only later, after researching what happened to him, did he learn that these things are all connected to the sightings of Bigfoot.

Everyone interviewed in this series signed a document stating that they are telling the truth, and not being deceptive in any way.

Stay tuned for Part 2 of this episode.

During his childhood, Alec experienced a peculiar phenomenon where he would find himself outside of his own body at night. Upon awakening, he would observe his sleeping form before embarking on a journey to explore his own home. Initially, this activity was enjoyable, but he was apprehensive about entering a specific area downstairs, sensing an ominous presence beckoning him toward it. Eventually, he mustered the courage to venture into that area, only to be tormented by an entity for several hours, a haunting experience that persisted into his teenage years.

Alec now believes the entity that tormented him in his childhood was The Night Hag or The Old Hag. This is a supernatural creature that shows up in almost every country and culture around the world, going back very far into history. In fact, the word nightmare even comes from folklore about this entity!

This is part one of a two-part series.

Terra sees a pyramid-shaped UFO above her swing set in Tucson Arizona. It may have been a vision, a dream, or real life. Afterward, she begins to experience prophetic dreams and unusual abilities that she believes might be connected.

This episode is the first of a few interviews I have done that feature strangely similar aspects. Things I wouldn't think too much about if I didn't notice them repeating between people that are completely unrelated. And of course, I wouldn't be pointing all this out if I didn't already have something it was leading towards.

Also, on Patreon this week I have an interview with an Oxford Biologist about miners in South America who worship Satan, aka "El Tio" who they believe protects them while underground. Watch and Listen to that by signing up for the Otherworld Patreon

Robert, a self-described Atheist, was diagnosed with CIDP as a baby. CIPD is a rare and incapacitating disorder, which confined him to a wheelchair and left him living in children's hospitals throughout his childhood. Despite medical professionals deeming it impossible for him to walk, Robert defied the odds and achieved a miraculous recovery. His family believes this recovery may be linked to a vision of the Virgin Mary that Robert experienced shortly before.

This episode delves into Robert's extraordinary journey growing up with significant challenges, and the paranormal events he encountered during this time and continues to experience to this day. Additionally, it explores how these phenomena affected the beliefs of his family members in various ways, and how despite witnessing what many people would consider miracles, Robert remains an Atheist to this day.
