👻Hitchhiker Prevention👻

First off— What are hitchhikers? Essentially, they are ghosts/spirits/entities often found in cemeteries and graveyards that tend to follow people home. In a way they are a type of parasitic entity. However there are some methods that you can use to easily protect yourself against them as they don't exactly attach to you, they follow and stalk you, often maliciously.

Preventing a Hitchhiker:

Firstly, it is best to preemptively work to protect yourself against such spirits by veiling / heavily protecting yourself prior to entering the burial grounds. It helps to be fully clothed, doing things like covering as much skin as possible. Wear gloves, high socks and boots, and a mask if you can to obscure yourself.

On your way home stop at no less than three stops. Typically, public spaces are preferred. Stop at places like Taco Bell, a park, or the parking lot in front of a store. Hang around these places for a while, walking around, not just remaining static.

Prior to entering your house take off as much of your clothes as you are comfortable with before entering your house and leave it outside until the next morning. It can help to wear layers so you can just shed the outer layer, whilst retaining your privacy. It also really helps to shower the second you get home with the intent to cleanse the entirety of your body and energy, allowing any negative energies and entities to slip down the drain.

"chucky did one with the cardinals not too long ago did you reach out to him any advice?" "i didnt... yeah just going for it we'll see what happens 😃!" (proceeds to be consumed by the spirit that haunts loan depot and airmails the ball)

"Have you thrown a first pitch before? And just your nervous level for tonight?" "I have never thrown a first pitch... a little bit of nerves! You always wanna throw a strike but I think I'll be alright!" "Did you play baseball growing up at all?" "Just a little bit, just when I was younger. And then started to kind-of get into hockey a little bit more and—so just when I was, you know, up until I was 7 or 8, I think?"

In 1969, the enigmatic Jim Morrison of The Doors strutted into the ancient city of Teotihuacan in Mexico. There he stood, nonchalantly posing next to a stone serpent, likely lost in a concoction of thoughts about the mysterious allure and gripping history of this pre-Columbian civilization. What a scene—rock 'n' roll royalty juxtaposed against the profound echoes of a lost world. Can you feel the tension?

New Mexico State Penitentiary

The New Mexico State Penitentiary is notorious for its violent history, including the 1980 riot. Due to overcrowding and an abusive staff, the history of this prison is covered with blood and violence. Today you will not see the conditions that led to so much upheaval but there is a chance some say you could see New Mexico State Penitentiary ghosts.

The prison was first opened in 1885, after construction was completed. The design of the penitentiary was based on the same blueprints used for other prisons, such as Sing Sing. In 1903, NM became the first of the western states to employee prisoners in highway construction. By 1922, the prison was overcrowded. The convicts began rioting due to the poor food and excessive force by the correctional officers. When they refused to go back to their cells, the guards opened fire. By the end of the riot, one inmate was dead and five others were injured. In the following investigation, the officers and guards were blamed for the riot due to lack of experience.

This wouldn’t be the very last of the rioting. In fact, it would only get worse.

In July 1922, the prisoners rioted again. They claimed that they were tired of the excessive force used by the correctional officers and decided to hold Deputy Warden R. Tahash and several guards hostage. In the resulting fight, two inmates ended up dead and many others were wounded. This riot ended to the abandoning of the original building. A new facility was constructed in 1956. It would come to be called the main unit of the prison.

Unfortunately, there would be yet another riot in the main unit. This would become one of the deadliest and worst prison riots in the US. In 1980, the inmates rioted over a two-day period. Twelve hostages were held hostage by some prisoners who managed to escape from their cell blocks. By the time the rioting was over with, some 33 inmates were killed. Some of the inmates deaths were rather violent, as they involved a blow torch.

The main unit would remain open for another 18 years before it was finally closed. It was shut down for good in 1998. Today, it’s referred to as The Old Pen. It has remained empty since except for the occasional New Mexico State Police and National Guard training. It was also the location for the remake of the film The Longest Yard.

Since it has such a violent past, it’s no surprise that the prison is allegedly haunted now. Some of the paranormal activity claimed is an apparition of a man in green convict apparel walking through the hallways, icy cold spots in random places throughout the prison, loud disembodied voices and cells doors opening and closing on their own.

Island of the Dead Dolls

After leaving his family, Don Julian Santana Barrera resided on an Island South of Mexico city. Not long after relocating, he made a chilling discovery on the shores of his island: a young girl, drowned in the lake. A doll came floating down the canals shortly afterward, changing the course of Santana Barrera's life and the shape of the island for years to come.

Barrera took the doll and hung it from a tree in order to appease the spirit of the dead girl. But, at least in the eyes of the man who now considered himself the island's caretaker, the one doll was not enough. For the next 50 years, Santana Barrera would scrounge dolls from the trash and from the canals, and hang them from the island's many trees. Some he'd hang whole, others in various states of disrepair — headless, torso-less, or taken apart in other ways.

Many believe that the girl never existed, that he completely made up the story or had some type of mental disorder that caused him to hallucinate it, due to there being no proof of the child actually existing. However, he devoted his entire life to her.

And the creepiest thing of all, in 2001, Don Julian Santana Barrera passed away. His body was discovered — you guessed it — drowned in the canal, in the exact place he always said he'd seen the little girl. In response, tourists began flocking to the island to pay tribute. They brought dolls of their own, and to this day people honor both Santana Barrera and the girl (whether she was real or not) by hanging up dolls in tribute. What do you think? Would you visit this creepy doll island in Mexico city?

Episode 196: The Disappearance of Jacobo Grinberg *IS LIVE*! Image 01: Jacobo Grinberg was a famed Mexican scientist, neurophysiologist, and psychologist who dedicated his life to studying an unseen reality or “Lattice” which existed at the intersection of psychic ability and shamanism. Image 02: Jacobo in the lab. Image 03: One of Jacobo’s experiments tested psychic ability by instructing children to meditate, after which he would blindfold the child and ask them to describe picture books without use of their eyes. Image 03: The experiments led Jacobo to publish his “sintergic theory” about the existence of an unseen reality, or “lattice”, we can tap into with meditation. Image 04: Jacobo theorized that Mexican Shamans were able to tap into the lattice and began observing a Mexican healer known as “La Pachita.” Image 05-08: La Pachita was famous for performing psychic surgeries using only a few bandages and a rusty kitchen knife. During these surgeries, Pachita would connect with a spirit she called “Hermanito” who had been a powerful Aztec ruler known as Cuauhtémoc. Image 09: As Jacobo’s controversial research began revealing things he was “unable to explain with modern science”, Jacobo found himself at the center of political upheaval and was ostracized from the scientific community... until he went missing altogether. Some people believe Jacobo actually transformed into someone else entirely named Shiva Shambo. Image 10: Shiva Shambo. What do you guys think? Where did Jacobo go? Is Shiva Shambo and Jacobo the same person?!

Island of the Dolls

Laguna de Tequila, Mexico

The stuff of Chucky nightmares, Mexico’s Island of Dolls—known as La Isla de las Muñecas—amid the Xochimilco canals south of Mexico City is known for hundreds of dolls displayed throughout the island. The sad history goes back a century, when Don Julián Santana Barrera (the former owner of the island) came across the body of a young girl floating in a canal. A doll was also found floating in the canal, which Barrera hung on a tree in memory of her.

The dolls have appeared on this Mexican island since 1950s.

They put the little alien corpses in tiny coffins, for dramatic effect and respect. Which is by far the goofiest thing I've seen in a long time.

Then we find out the alien corpses are made out of a hodgepodge of chopped up human and animal remains.

This unboxing went so wrong so fast.
