Mac
Some crimes are solved. Others leave behind questions the evidence can’t explain. Dead Air Files is a true crime and paranormal podcast hosted by Mac, alongside his investigative partner and cousin Smash, and lead researcher Ang. Each episode explores true crime cases with a paranormal twist, our own firsthand investigations, and folklore and unexplained stories from around the world. We examine witness testimony, historical records, and documented anomalies to uncover patterns where logic alone falls short. Grounded, atmospheric, and research-driven, Dead Air Files focuses on the details that linger—unanswered questions, strange coincidences, and the quiet moments where something feels off. If you’re drawn to unsolved cases, global folklore, and the unexplained edges of reality, you’ve found the right frequency.
Dead Air Files| 33 Listener Round-Up Vol. 5
This week we skim over three wild listener accounts — a reported haunting at the Shanley Hotel in upstate New York, a strange late-night stop near a remote U.S. military base that didn’t feel quite right, and one of the more unusual reports we’ve received… a possible “fairy” encounter involving a sudden sting to the neckThree quick stories. Three very different settings. All unsettling in their own way.**Join the conversation over on X **leave a Tip to help support the showhttps://x.comdeadairfiles?s=21check out our YouTube Channel https://youtube.com/@deadairfiles-pod?si=e60NUBJPADjKYNDMFor Coffee that Fuels DAF https://merlinsmunchiescoffee.comuse code DAF10 for 10% off plus it lets em know we sent yaFor our favorite gummy supplements https://go.goli.com/dafpoduse code: dafpod for 25% offhave a personal encounter with the paranormal and wanna share it send it our way to be told on our next Listener Round-Up [email protected] Become a member of the Static Order an keep up with us on our socialshttps://linktr.ee/Dead_Air_FilesThanks to our Sponsors and all our Deadheads for there support!

Dispatch.Ep. 31: The Dogman Sightings
Reports of a massive, upright canine creature have circulated for decades — from the forests of Michigan to the deep woods of Appalachia, and even echoes in European wolf-man folklore.In this cryptid-focused Dispatch, we examine modern Dogman encounters and the patterns that continue to surface: towering height, glowing or reflective eyes, unnatural speed, and an intelligence that suggests something far more than an animal.Witnesses describe being stalked. Followed. Watched from the treeline.Ang uncovered historical newspaper accounts, regional legends, and similarities between American Dogman sightings and Old World wolf-entity traditions.Is Dogman a misidentified predator? A relic hominid? A supernatural entity tied to land and bloodline? Or something that doesn’t fit cleanly into any category at all?Because whatever it is…People who see it never forget the eyes.And they all say the same thing.It stood like a man.**Join the conversation over on X **leave a Tip to help support the showhttps://x.comdeadairfiles?s=21check out our YouTube Channel https://youtube.com/@deadairfiles-pod?si=e60NUBJPADjKYNDMFor Coffee that Fuels DAF https://merlinsmunchiescoffee.comuse code DAF10 for 10% off plus it lets em know we sent yaFor our favorite gummy supplements https://go.goli.com/dafpoduse code: dafpod for 25% offhave a personal encounter with the paranormal and wanna share it send it our way to be told on our next Listener Round-Up [email protected] Become a member of the Static Order an keep up with us on our socialshttps://linktr.ee/Dead_Air_FilesThanks to our Sponsors and all our Deadheads for there support!

Crossroads: Ep 20 special. Appalachian Omens of Death
In this chilling episode, we venture deep into the folklore of Appalachia to explore the mysterious signs said to foretell death. From phantom knocks at the window to spectral black dogs, strange bird behavior, prophetic dreams, and the eerie “death crow,” Appalachia’s mountains hold centuries of superstition that blur the line between myth and warning.We dig into the history behind these omens, share firsthand accounts and family stories passed down through generations, and examine why these beliefs remain so deeply rooted in mountain culture. Are they simple coincidences, remnants of Scots-Irish tradition, or something more supernatural?Join us as we unravel the grim—and surprisingly fascinating—ways Appalachians have interpreted death’s approach. Just be warned… once you know the signs, you may start noticing them everywhere.For Coffee that Fuels DAF https://merlinsmunchiescoffee.comuse code DAF10 for 10 percent off plusmitlets em know we sent yahave a personal encounter with the paranormal and wanna share it send it our way to be told on our next Listener Round-Up [email protected] Become a member of the Static Order an keep up with us on our socialshttps://linktr.ee/Dead_Air_FilesThanks to our Sponsors and all our Deadheads for there support!
