    The Ghosts of Flight 401 - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E39
    Sep 25 2026
    An airline captain sits quietly in first class. He looks like he belongs there. Then someone recognizes him as a man who died in the crash of Eastern Air Lines Flight 401. On December 29, 1972, a routine flight from New York to Miami ended in the Florida Everglades. Bert and Nick follow the crew through the landing-gear warning, the unnoticed descent, and the rescue before turning to the stories that circulated afterward: reported appearances by Captain Bob Loft and flight engineer Don Repo aboard other aircraft, a face in a galley oven, and a warning about fire. We follow the disputed claim that salvaged components carried something more than spare parts into other airplanes. Could a haunting remain attached to an object? And why do so many of these accounts describe the men as still trying to protect the people aboard? The accident is documented. The hauntings are reported accounts associated with John G. Fullers The Ghost of Flight 401 and later retellings.

    Zanfretta: The Guard Who Reported a 10-Foot Alien - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E38
    Sep 18 2026
    He went to check a villa. According to the account, a ten-foot green humanoid was waiting outside—and his radio message was translated as: They arent men. Bert and Nick follow the Pier Fortunato Zanfretta encounters, beginning with an Italian security patrol in December 1978. The story moves through enormous reported boot prints, a car he said he could no longer control, other guards accounts of a luminous triangle, and a sphere he described under hypnosis that supposedly let him understand the beings. Then he goes back to work. Even a different route reportedly fails to end the encounters. For entertainment and discussion. The episode recounts reported experiences and hypnosis accounts, not established alien contact. Respect the privacy of those discussed; do not contact or harass them.

    A small green figure reportedly turned toward a former policeman and gestured for him to move on. He took a photograph—and later realized he could not account for roughly 105 minutes. Bert and Nick follow the Ilkley Moor account through the reversed compass, investigators photo timing, alleged visitors asking about the image, and a hypnosis account that placed the photograph at the end of something much stranger. Philip Spencer is a pseudonym; the episode explores reported experiences and interpretations.
