Icy roads, chaotic grocery runs, and somehow we still end up deep in cryptid country.

In this episode of Echoes After Dark, Monica and Sara recap their week navigating slick highways and storm-fueled errands before the conversation shifts into stranger territory. Sara dives into Yeti lore and the broader fascination with mountain mysteries, then pivots to the lesser-known, unsettling history of Wichita, Kansas—unpacking the darker stories that give certain cities a lingering edge.

Monica presents a detailed look at the historic Ape Canyon incident, drawing on the research of Marc Myrsell and placing the case firmly in its historical context. Together, they explore why the event continues to spark debate and how geography, witness testimony, and folklore intersect in ways that keep the story alive.
