Intro

In this episode, Tony sits down with Brian Jeffery from the Black Mass Paranormal YouTube channel, to discuss disturbing activity emerging from Appalachia, including feral people, unexplained disappearances, and strange encounters deep in the mountains of the Southeast. Brian shares new research into reports of a clicking sound he believes functions as biological sonar, allowing these beings to navigate caves and forests without relying on sight. They explore how cave systems, Native American lore, and missing persons cases may be connected, and why some phenomena appear physical rather than purely supernatural. They also touch on Dogman sightings near military bases, the possibility of engineered entities, and the personal cost of investigating these subjects. This episode challenges conventional explanations and forces a reexamination of what may be living beneath the mountains and moving just out of view.

Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!
