  • Tehran 1976: The Night the UFO Hit the Main Switch

    Tehran 1976: The Night the UFO Hit the Main Switch
    Apr 27 2026
    In this high-altitude installment of Ghost Bites, Mike and JT tackle the 1976 Tehran UFO incident, a case so well-documented by military sources that it remains one of the greatest challenges to conventional skepticism. On the night of September 18, the Imperial Iranian Air Force scrambled two F-4 Phantom jets to intercept a "brilliant and dazzling" object that was essentially the theater kid of the cosmos—demanding attention while performing a synchronized ballet with the pilots' instrumentation. JT notes that the entity’s ultimate power move wasn't using tractor beams or lasers, but rather acting as a celestial troll by hitting the main breaker switch on multi-million-dollar fighter jets the second a pilot tried to arm a missile. While skeptical debunkers later tried to claim the whole thing was just the planet Venus, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) disagreed, filing a high-level report on the "electronic countermeasure" that temporarily turned advanced interceptors into expensive, airborne toasters. Ultimately, the episode reveals the unsettling possibility that our best defense systems are completely vulnerable to an unknown force that can flip our "on" switch whenever it feels like showing off.

  • Bump and Grind Ghosts at the Penthouse

    Bump and Grind Ghosts at the Penthouse
    Apr 23 2026
    To kick off Season Three, Mike and JT head to Vancouver’s Penthouse Night Club, a venue so historic that the resident ghosts are likely still trying to pay the cover charge with Canadian currency that hasn’t existed in sixty years. Mike details the tragic 1975 murder of owner Peter Gianis, while JT argues that the haunting is essentially a "crushing volume of bad decisions" and poor accounting practices manifesting as a guy in a suit who refuses to vacate his upstairs office. The drama continues backstage with a 1950s showgirl ghost who flickers the lights to express her deep, spectral disapproval of modern choreography and the distinct lack of ostrich feathers. Between disembodied arguments and a sound system that spikes whenever the DJ refuses to play Sinatra, this episode proves that owning a business means you can never truly clock out, even in the afterlife.

  • HH03 Perchta: The Belly-Slitting Christmas Goddess

    HH03 Perchta: The Belly-Slitting Christmas Goddess
    Dec 15 2025
    Today on Ghost Bites, Mike and JT venture into the chilling, pre-Christian folklore of the Alpine regions to confront Perchta (or Frau Berchta), the dual-natured winter goddess. Mike details her terrifying role as the "Belly-Slitter," who roams the countryside during the Twelve Days of Christmas to enforce social and domestic order. Perchta's punishment for the lazy is grotesque: she cuts open their stomachs, removes their guts, and replaces them with straw and pebbles. JT critiques the sheer insanity of using organ-removal as a domestic punishment, questions the logistics of the required traditional meal of fish and gruel, and analyzes the extreme measures the Catholic Church took to demonize a goddess who was just a little too focused on tidiness and spinning.
