Summary

This is OBSCURA, a look back at the stories of Euphomet Season One - this time, With Monsters. It’s a tale that begins with a salesman named Woodrow Derenberger and a strange encounter on Highway I-77 near Parkersburg, West Virginia, and ends just over a year later, in Point Pleasant, West Virginia with the deaths of 46 people in one of the most shocking roadway tragedies in American history. I (Jim) came out to West Virginia with paranormal investigators Greg and Dana Newkirk a few times in the fall of 2018 to record stories for Euphomet. Those can be heard in Season One on this very podcast feed. In this Edition of Obscura, we take a look back at unheard documentary audio from our exploration, we hear stories of others - people, experiencers, who have come into contact with a now-notorious set mid-century supernatural lore. Mothman, Flatwoods Monster, Indrid Cold, and Men In Black. More from the Newkirks: You have to see their new doc series HELLIER. Go to Hellier.tv to watch now.
