Those Aren't People!

Deep in the shadowed heart of Alaska’s Copper River Valley, the wilderness holds more than silence—it remembers. In this chilling episode of Sasquatch Odyssey, the haunting folklore of Alaska comes alive through vivid accounts passed down by those who’ve lived closest to its mysteries.From the whispered warnings of elders to the trembling voices of witnesses, Killers in the Valley explores the eerie boundary between legend and lived experience. We journey through tales of monstrous “killer monkeys” stalking the riverbanks, and the Harrimen—dark, elusive figures said to roam the fog-laden forests where few dare to tread.But the most unnerving of all are the shape-shifters: sea otters that rise from the depths, transforming into towering, humanlike beings cloaked in shadow and dripping river water.Agatha, whose quiet day of berry picking turned into a nightmare of strange sounds and unseen watchers; of Ms. Carroll, whose property became a beacon for ghostly lights and inexplicable disturbances; and of William Williams, who faced a creature so horrifying it blurred the line between man, beast, and spirit.Each account carries the pulse of Alaska’s untamed wilds—a reminder that isolation, fear, and ancient belief intertwine in the frozen frontier. These stories are more than folklore; they are fragments of memory, fear, and reverence for a land that is beautiful, merciless, and deeply haunted.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
