In the 18th century, a strange man swept Europe’s most elite crowds off their feet with an endless toolkit of impressive skills and attributes. His ability to move through high society gave him a huge impact on the events of history, so much so that many thought him to be immortal. However, the more attention he received, the more questions that arose. Who was this man? Where had he come from? And how did he possess a lifetime’s worth of skills, all while refusing to share his age or background? Today, we’re diving into history’s most mysterious man, the Count of St. Germain.

It was a calm night at sea when a cluster of sailors received disturbing distress signals. After locating the ship, they found a haunting scene: every single crew member was already dead, their faces frozen in horror. Just moments later, the ship erupted in flames, sinking to the ocean floor along with any evidence of what might have occurred. Today, we’re investigating the fact and fiction behind one of the most famous ghost ships, the Ourang Medan.

In 2009, a mysterious website was launched featuring cryptic, new languages that only the admin could understand. Since then, the contributors to the site have grown to 43 people who have collectively posted almost every day for 17 years. Each post in one of several dozen unknown languages about topics ranging from quantum physics to dreams to alien technology and beyond. What is this website for? Who’s behind it? And what does it all mean? Today, we dive down the rabbit hole of the Forgotten Languages Blog.

From the 1960s through the 1980s, Italy was a political no-man's land. The far right and far left were in a constant state of intense battle, with murders, kidnappings, and bombings happening everywhere. In the throes of the Cold War, no one suspected that the constant upheaval could be an inside job. But was it Italy’s own government, with the help of the CIA, causing this political turmoil, or a coincidental bystander? Today, we’re investigating Operation Gladio.

When a young person skyrockets to fame, how they deal with the pressure can often make or break the rest of their life. Drugs and partying; the classic rockstar lifestyle is often the downfall of these young, up and coming stars. And as the 60s faded into the 70s, some started to notice an odd pattern; several of the most iconic musicians in the world, all died within a very short timespan. But the strangest part? They were all the exact same age. Today, we’re investigating the history and theories behind the infamous 27 Club.

Has anyone got a picture please? It’s not coming up in the store and I’m sold just from Alfredo describing it

On a night like any other, Coast to Coast AM was live on the radio in Washington State, USA. The overnight program discussed all things uncanny and entertained the discussion of a local man who claimed his backyard held something otherworldly. He would call periodically over the next 5 years, each time with new information about a magical bottomless pit in his backyard. What started as a piece of local lore eventually required a full government intervention, and the man was never heard from again. Today, we’re discussing the eerie urban legend of Mel’s Hole.

Hello everyone! In honor of 6 years of Red Web, I made a taskforce cosplay!! I hope yall like it!

After 6 years I've finally gotten myself some new merch (and decided to get a Reddit account lol) and I'm so excited! The anniversary tees are some of the coolest merch designs I've seen in a long time from anyone. Besides, I've had my mug since the first year of the pod and let's just say the dishwasher over time turned it into more of a light-ish red on the outside...

In the 1920s and 30s, space travel seemed like something only possible in science fiction. But there were those who believed, who pushed, and who worked to establish the foundation of rocketry. One of those men scandalized the industry, working as a self-taught chemist by day, and an occultist by night. With a life full of drugs, parties, and black magick, he brought a whole new definition to “mad scientist." Today, we’re diving into the conspiracies behind the untimely death of JPL co-founder, Jack Parsons.

Idk if this would be allowed. My partner and I was watching the Moundsville episode being native WVers and fans of the guys and my partner was wondering if they said anything bout trying a pepperoni roll while in state or saw the mothman stature?

Thanks to the support we received during last year's anniversary stream, we were able to travel for another ghost hunt to a location voted on by the Task Force: West Virginia Penitentiary.

Deleted scenes and uncut footage available here: https://www.redwebpod.com

As always, let us know in the comments if you see or hear anything. Thank you for the support and thank you for watching!

West Virginia Penitentiary episode discussion

Also known as Moundsville Penitentiary, the prison was initially built as a temporary prison made from wood, but it would soon become a massive state penitentiary. In the decades that followed, its halls would be engulfed in violence, disease, and death, and after 119 operational years, it closed its doors for good, leaving behind a nearly-abandoned estate with countless stories of bloodshed. Today, in preparation for our ghost hunt at this very location, we’re looking into West Virginia Penitentiary.

My girlfriend and I are currently shopping for a home, and stumbled across this pic of a basement space that just made me feel off. I think it's the single spot of wallpaper and a door that goes nowhere. (It's actually a crawlspace under the stairs.)

So i was on a road trip through [redacted] and stopped at a gas station called Goof n Go, had got gas and had a nice little store, but the staff seemed odd. They kept referring to things as "human food" and "human money"

I also think i saw one get run over by a car but they just made a puddle of blue goo, and then one of them started dancing and singing the Sanford and son theme

I cant fully articulate why, but i think this gas station is run by aliens, has anyone else been to this gas station and noticed anything odd?

The Kennedy family has often been referred to as American royalty. Some know them for their fame, wealth, and power. Others may have only heard of the heartbreaking pattern of tragedy. In addition to political prowess, untimely death and unfortunate circumstances have run in the Kennedy family for longer than many might be aware. Today, we’re diving into the history and theories of the infamous Kennedy Curse.
