A skeptic walked into a haunted infirmary determined to debunk every sound. By the end of the night, he wasn't so sure anymore — and that was only the beginning of his story.
Our guest, John Fike (also known as John "Methencamp"), hosts Myths, Monsters, and Mullets, covering paranormal encounters, cryptids, and UFOs, often alongside guests from the indie horror film world.

Guest Spotlight: John Fike

How a fake mullet and a factory joke turned into a podcast persona
A paranormal investigation at the Randolph County Infirmary that turned a skeptic into a believer
An EVP session that left a grown man sobbing and convinced he'd left his body
A wall of putrid smell on a horse trail that spooked two seasoned trail horses
A nighttime encounter with something bipedal crashing through the woods
The "Ohio Howl" he heard as a child, years before learning others reported the same sound
A roadside encounter on a dark Indiana highway with something he still can't explain
Comparing notes with other researchers on "pale crawlers," "rakes," and similar folklore
A cross-cultural parallel between Blackfoot and Filipino folklore creatures
Why he believes every personal encounter deserves to be taken at face value

Stories Discussed:

John recounts an Estes Method session at the Randolph County Infirmary where a fellow investigator broke down, convinced he'd had an out-of-body experience.
He describes a knocking sound that answered his own knock in an empty kitchen, with no metal object nearby that could explain it.
He recalls a wall of overpowering odor on a familiar horse trail that caused two calm trail horses to bolt without warning.
He shares a childhood memory of a long, rising howl at 2 a.m. that he later recognized from other researchers' accounts of an unusual cryptid call.
He details a roadside sighting of a pale, faceless humanoid figure on a dark Indiana highway, and the marks later found on his vehicle's door.

Memorable Quote: "If that exists, Bigfoot has to exist, because what I saw shouldn't."
