• The Kelly–Hopkinsville Goblin Siege: The Night Little Green Men Came to Kentucky

  In August 1955, a terrified Kentucky family burst into a small-town police station claiming they’d spent the night under attack from “little men” that bullets couldn’t hurt. What officers found at the Sutton farmhouse would become one of the strangest and most controversial cases in UFO history. In this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime, we head to rural Kelly–Hopkinsville to walk hour by hour through the so-called “Goblin Siege”: the glowing craft in the sky, the strange metallic creatures at the windows, the 20–plus officers who swore the family were genuinely afraid, and the investigations that followed. Were they besieged by aliens, fooled by owls, or swept up in a perfect storm of fear, folklore and bad timing? Settle in as we unpack one of the classic foundations of the “little green men” legend.You can get early and ad free access to this show and more here Hosted on Acast.

Known in Gaelic as Am Fear Liath Mòr — the Big Grey Man — this phenomenon has baffled experts and terrified hikers for more than a hundred years. In this atmospheric deep dive, we explore the folklore, the eyewitness accounts, and the science behind one of Britain’s most haunting mysteries.You can get early and ad free access to this show and more here Hosted on Acast.

• The Vanishing family

  When a pickup truck was found abandoned on a remote Oklahoma mountain road, its doors were unlocked, wallets untouched, and a family dog barely alive inside. Bobby and Sherilynn Jamison, and their six-year-old daughter Madyson, were gone. Inside the truck — $32,000 in cash, phones, IDs, and a note that hinted at despair. For years, searchers combed the wilderness with no trace… until four years later, their remains surfaced just miles away, and with them, only more questions. Murder, accident, or something stranger? This is the story of the Jamison family — a modern American mystery that refuses to rest.You can get early and ad free access to this show and more here Hosted on Acast.
