Nephilim Death Squad – Episode 209
"Paranormal Gaslighting & Pyramid Symbolism w/ Wesley Roth"
Date: September 6, 2025
Hosts: TopLobsta and David Lee Corbo (The Raven)
Guest: Wesley Roth (Dark Holler Studios, filmmaker of The Meadow Project)
Episode Overview
This episode dives deep into the interplay between the paranormal, biblical mysteries, and conspiracy theory, with a focus on "paranormal gaslighting," the symbolism and purpose of pyramids—especially the Great Pyramid of Giza—and how ancient structures might represent encoded messages from God. Wesley Roth returns as a guest, bringing insights from his documentary work and recent research suggesting the Great Pyramid as a monument to Yahweh, not simply a pagan or satanic symbol. The discussion is lively, critical, and rife with biblical, historical, and esoteric connections.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. The Meadow Project, Fieldwork, and Paranormal Gaslighting
-
Behind the Scenes at the Meadow (08:13–11:49):
- Wesley talks about the physically and mentally taxing fieldwork for his documentary, recounting nights of little sleep and strange, unsettling experiences.
- The Bigfoot Footage Debunk: What appeared to be “Bigfoot” was a trick of light and shadow—"the shadow of a log"—which was at first emotionally impactful for those present before being debunked. (08:13–08:39)
- Strange Handprints: "Their fingerprints [on the car] were twice the size of mine...something strange. It looks like fur matted down." (14:13–14:39)
-
Paranormal Gaslighting (20:03–22:41):
- The group discusses how prolonged exposure to anomalous phenomena often leads to confusion, self-doubt, and intergroup strife—akin to "paranormal gaslighting."
- Wesley: "It’s like paranormal gaslighting. It makes you feel crazy, so you act crazy. That matches the blueprint, the playbook." (21:16–22:17)
- Horror movies like The Ring and Smile are referenced as analogs for this psychological breakdown.
2. Trickster Phenomenon and the ‘Trickster’ Element in High Strangeness
(15:26–17:37)
- "A trickster kind of thing"-- referencing how unknown forces often seem to toy with witnesses (e.g., moving objects, leaving subtle clues).
- Phenomena, whether at Skinwalker Ranch or in biblical stories, are often “trollish,” inducing not terror, but calculated confusion and division.
- TopLobsta: "They want to create a strife or an argument…that’s the easiest time for them to insert themselves…"
3. Personal Accounts: Spiritual Protection and Trolling Phenomena
(19:03–20:50)
- TopLobsta describes a nocturnal encounter with a negative presence, deploying prayer as spiritual protection, resulting in a sensation of relief and the dissipation of the experience.
4. Connections between Physical Phenomena, Mold, and Spiritual Energy
(23:54–24:40)
- Discussion of black mold as a conduit for negative energies—connecting themes from Resident Evil 8, Archive 81, and folklore about mold, parasites, and demonic activity.
- David: "What if all demonic possession is just like, you know, mold sickness? And then I said, what if all parasites and mold are actually an energetic conduit that conducts negative spiritual energy?" (23:39–24:13)
5. Pyramid Symbolism: Ancient, Biblical, and Esoteric Meanings
(33:51–101:32)
Reframing the Pyramid
- Wesley: "I don't subscribe to the idea that there is any satanic symbol...symbols get hijacked and co-opted." (33:51–34:16)
- Argues the Great Pyramid isn’t a monument of evil or New Age technology, but "the original monument to Yahweh." (35:41)
Key Evidence & Biblical Correlations
- Isaiah 19:19-20 referenced as scriptural backing that the Great Pyramid is “an altar to the LORD… and a monument… at the border of Egypt.”
- Hebrew numerology of the verse (42:03): The sum of the Hebrew letters in those verses equals 5,449, “the exact height in pyramid inches of the pyramid.” (42:17)
- Locational Symbolism: Giza sits at the center of Egypt, on the border between upper and lower kingdoms; “Giza” means “border.” (41:17)
- Pyramid’s alignment with the equator and prime meridian (43:02), marked as the center of Earth's landmass.
Measurement and Mathematical Enigma
- The Pyramid Inch: A special unit (one inch plus a human hair) used for sacred measurements and encoding.
- Stones and features within the pyramid (notably the semicircular “boss” stone) encode biblical numerology, particularly the number five—a symbol of God’s grace.
- David: "That's a very peculiar unit of measurement." (42:41)
Spiritual Blueprint: Pyramid as a Physical Gospel
- The pyramid’s inner architecture symbolically maps to the timeline of biblical salvation history:
- The “downward trajectory” mirrors the fallen human state.
- Ascending passages mark pivotal events (e.g., Moses choosing his identity, the Law, and Christ’s resurrection).
- Intersection points correlate with key biblical dates (e.g., 1486 BC—Moses’ renunciation of Egypt; ~30 AD—crucifixion of Jesus). (67:20–69:19, 94:00–96:41)
Astronomical Alignments
- Shafts and passages align with celestial bodies/constellations significant in biblical lore: Tubin (Alpha Draconis), Columba ("Noah's Dove"), Sirius (Lion's Gate), Mizar ("Linen Wrap"), Ursa Major ("resurrection"), and Orion ("heaven’s light"). (65:23)
- The pyramid’s layout encodes the timeline and prophetic symbolism, acting as an astronomical marker and a prophecy in stone.
Names & Symbolic Layers
- Book of the Dead: The pyramid is called Pachanak ("House of Enoch"), Kuti ("Light"), and by Chaldeans as "Revelatory Measures." (49:35)
- The timeline within the pyramid mirrors "the entire story of the Bible told from start to finish." (49:26)
- The Queen’s Chamber: interpreted as a "holding spot for Israel," reflecting the church as the bride of Christ (96:37–97:39)
Capstone Symbolism
- The missing capstone symbolizes Jesus Christ—the "stone the builders rejected." (110:48)
- The pyramid as the “entire gospel told in physical form.”
6. Cultural Afterlife of Symbols: Inversion and Reappropriation
- The popular association of the all-seeing eye and pyramid with evil is a late, inversive development—a hijacking by occult or secret society symbology.
- David (reflection): "These are just symbols that are highly meaningful but co-opted and inverted—and maybe none greater than the pyramid, you know what I mean? The pyramid and the all-seeing eye has become the symbol of the...enemy." (99:52–100:22)
7. Age of Aquarius, Cultural Change, and Biblical Timelines
(80:42–84:15)
- The group reflects on the evolution of collective consciousness aligning with astrological “Ages.” E.g., Age of Pisces aligning with the Christian era; Age of Aquarius coming.
- Noting a palpable cultural shift post-2012 ("the end of the Mayan calendar"), they connect a sense of “barreling toward something big” to both cosmic events and biblical prophecy.
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

Concluding Thoughts
Wesley Roth’s scholarship and speculative insight challenge the trope of the pyramid as an inherently pagan or occult totem, instead arguing for its biblical origin and encoded divine messages—mathematical, astronomical, and spiritual. The pyramid stands, in this reading, as a literal “altar and monument to Yahweh” (Isaiah 19:19-20), and the “greatest surviving wonders of the world” may await a final revelation rather than the confirmation of the conspiracies stacked upon them.
The episode concludes on a note of humility about the limits of modern understanding, the dangers of simplistically inverting sacred symbols, and a sense of awe at the possibility that ancient monuments still contain messages for the seekers of today.
