  • 74. From the Vault: The Legend of Northfield, VTs Pigman
    Apr 28 2026

    Hey Gang! We're having a bit of a squeeze and some health issues have popped up, preventing us from recording this week.


    We decided to play one of our favorite episodes from the vault! We hope you enjoy revisiting this hilarious/lighthearted episode! Catch you next week.


    In the shadowy hills of Northfield, Vermont, a mystery has haunted locals for over half a century. They say he’s part man, part beast. When he's seen, he's naked, feral, and wearing the severed head of a pig.

    This week on Weirder After Dark, The Gang dives headfirst into the terrifying legend of the Northfield Pigman. From the strange disappearance of a high schooler in 1951 to decades of chilling sightings that followed. Is it all just backwoods folklore?

    During the winter of 1977, something very strange happened in Wakefield, NH. A local horse farmer woke up to find a perfect circle carved into 18 inches of ice on the pond he used to feed his horses. Even stranger, as he inspected the perfect circle he could see a small black cube at the bottom of the ice. Within hours, local officals, government officals, even the National Guard were on scene. But what exactly was found at the bottom of this Wakefield farm? Listen today to find out!

  • 71. The Jumping Frenchmen in Maine
    Apr 7 2026

    Imagine you're deep in the woods of northern Maine. It's the 1870s. The air smells like pine and cold mud, and you're living in a bunkhouse with thirty other lumberjacks, miles from the nearest town. You've been swinging an ax since before sunrise, and the only entertainment you've got is each other.

    Now imagine one of the men in your bunk, a quiet French-Canadian guy, a little jumpy, a little shy, suddenly gets a sharp shout in his ear. And he loses it. He leaps off the ground, screams, throws whatever's in his hands, and then here's the wild part if someone shouts a command at him mid-jump, he just... obeys it. Without thinking. Even if that command is to hit someone, punch himself, jump into a rozen lake, or spill his food. He does it. Then all of a sudden everyone in the camp seemed to get this ... affliction.

    This wasn't a prank. This wasn't a bit. This was documented medicine. And it's one of the strangest medical mysteries in American history.

  • 70. Taken: The Betty and Barney Hill Incident
    Mar 31 2026

    It was a quiet September night in 1961 when Betty and Barney Hill made the fateful decision to abandon their honeymoon and drive home from Montreal to Portsmouth, NH. What should have been a smooth 6-hour drive turned into America's first abduction stories.

    Join us as we dive into 3 hours of missing time, a strange craft in the sky, creatures that poke and prod, strange markings on their car, and all the REAL EVIDENCE that suggests this could have happened. We'll walk through it all as we try to get to the bottom of what really happened that night. Don't turn off the lights, gang.... cause this one will get under your skin and have you thinking for a while!
