This week we're taking a look into the darker side of Ayahuasca in our first installment of Bad Trips—where visions turn violent, entities hijack the mind, and hours stretch into eternity. In this episode, we explore real experiences that went far beyond “spiritual healing”: encounters with predatory spirits, looping insanity, shapeshifting shamans, and the terrifying aftermath that left people questioning their sanity, their safety, and their place in the world. These aren’t your typical retreat stories. These are the ones nobody wants to talk about.

From clown phobia turned hellscape to Tetris-brain thought loops, Tim Burton creatures crawling from the void, and a chilling cultural warning about who Ayahuasca may truly be meant for—these firsthand accounts paint a picture of a medicine that can heal… or completely unravel you. If you're fascinated by psychedelic horror, spiritual misfires, and mind-bending supernatural encounters, this episode pulls back the curtain on the shadow realm of Ayahuasca.

We'll see you on the inside..
