The Unfinished Business of Manly P. Hall

This episode dives into the lonely Rosicrucian childhood of Manly P. Hall, his meteoric rise in 1920s occult Los Angeles, and the creation of his magnum opus, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, which cemented him as one of the most influential esoteric philosophers of the twentieth century. Along the way, we’ll talk about his years at the Philosophical Research Society, his legendary residence in Frank Lloyd Wright’s eerily iconic and possibly haunted Ennis House, and the still‑unsolved, sinister circumstances surrounding his 1990 death and contested will.

More than six decades later, her disappearance remains one of the most haunting unsolved cases in the Pacific Northwest, made even more chilling by its possible connection to one of America’s most infamous serial killers.

The Curse of Ötzi the Iceman

In 1991, high in the Ötztal Alps, a frozen body emerged from the ice, and what seemed like a mountaineering accident turned out to be Europe’s oldest natural mummy. Meet Ötzi, a 5,000-year-old Copper Age man whose remarkably preserved remains offer a chilling glimpse into prehistoric life, and possibly, death by more than just natural causes. From forensic finds to the strange and sudden deaths of researchers tied to him, rumors of a deadly curse refuse to melt away. Was Ötzi simply an archaeological marvel… or a mummy with unfinished business? Let’s dig into the ice, the evidence, and the eerie echoes of a curse that may still linger today.

The Mystery of the Oakville Blobs

In August 1994, Oakville, Washington, was the target of a strange, unexplained event: a shower of translucent blobs, not rain, fell from the sky. The gooey substance coated everything in sight, from windshields to grass, leaving residents and animals sick with inexplicable symptoms. Was it a freak weather anomaly or something more disturbing? Theories have swirled for years, from bombed jellyfish to secret military experiments. 

But despite numerous investigations, the true origin of the blobs remains a mystery. Now, with reports of similar occurrences just a few miles away in 2025, the question lingers: What really fell from the sky that summer? In this episode, we dig into the chilling details of the Oakville blob incident and the questions that still haunt the small town, and could possibly reveal a much darker truth.
