- Fortean 50: Idaho
The Fortean 50 rolls into Idaho, and this one gets weird fast.
Idaho may be known for mountains, forests, lakes, and some of the most remote wilderness in the country—but buried throughout the state are stories of creatures in the water, things moving through the backcountry, and unexplained objects overhead.
We start in the lakes.
For decades, people around Payette Lake have reported seeing Sharlie, a massive serpent-like creature described as having a long neck and multiple humps breaking the surface of the water. The story became big enough in the 1940s to escape Idaho entirely and make national—and eventually international—headlines.
But Sharlie isn't alone.
There’s the absolutely bizarre Swan Valley Monster, a creature reportedly encountered in 1868 that sounds like somebody assembled every nightmare animal they could think of into one body. Then there’s the Bear Lake Monster, another long-running Idaho legend with reports stretching back more than a century.
And once we leave the water, things don't exactly get more normal.
Deep in Idaho's Sawtooth Mountains, two experienced outdoorsmen encounter something enormous moving through the wilderness—something upright, athletic, and strangely canine before dropping onto all fours and disappearing down the mountainside.
Then we look up.
Idaho has produced its share of strange UFO reports, including an incredible 1947 case near St. Maries involving multiple witnesses who claimed to watch eight objects descend onto a mountainside, prompting searches of the area.
There are reports of enormous silent triangles over Boise, strange shape-changing objects gliding over Idaho Falls, and unexplained lights witnessed near the Idaho National Engineering & Environmental Laboratory. One witness—an Army veteran familiar with military aircraft—said simply that he had never seen anything like it.
From monsters beneath dark mountain lakes to something prowling the Sawtooth wilderness and unexplained objects moving through Idaho skies, the Gem State has plenty to add to our map of weird America.
Welcome to Idaho.
Stay Safe. Stay Weird.

Instead, they found themselves face-to-face with a silent object rising from a cornfield, missing hours of time, and experiencing a series of bizarre events that would change their lives forever.
Their encounter included a massive cylindrical craft, unexplained missing time, physical illnesses, glowing orange eyes, strange mental impressions, and one of the most detailed hypnotic regressions in UFO history. As investigators dug deeper, the case expanded far beyond a simple sighting, uncovering alleged onboard examinations, telepathic communication, mysterious government-like visitors, and a chain of events that ultimately led to what many consider the most chilling Men in Black encounter ever documented.
In this episode, we explore the David Stephens abduction, the investigation by Brent Raynes and Dr. Herbert Hopkins, and the extraordinary events that followed.

Standing nearly seven feet tall, covered in coarse fur, with the head of a goat and the body of a man, witnesses claimed the creature stalked the shores of the lake, leaped across rocky bluffs, and even hurled a tire at terrified motorists.
What started as a handful of late-night encounters in the summer of 1969 quickly exploded into one of America's most famous cryptid legends. Police were called, hundreds of people flooded the area hoping to catch a glimpse of the creature, and newspapers across Texas dubbed it the Lake Worth Monster.
But what did people actually see?
Was it an escaped animal... an elaborate hoax... mass hysteria... or something far stranger lurking along the shoreline?
This week we dive into the history of the Lake Worth Monster, examine the original eyewitness reports, separate fact from folklore, and explore how one bizarre series of encounters transformed into one of the most enduring cryptid cases in American history.
Stay Safe. Stay Weird.
