from Weekly Spooky | Scary Stories for Halloween · host Henrique Couto | Scary Stories & Horror Expert

Bat people on the Moon? The Great Moon Hoax of 1835 sold readers an imaginary lunar world, and Henrique Couto and Michelle follow the newspaper sensation that made fiction look like science. This August 2026 Monthly Spooky also checks in on reported Bigfoot sightings in Connecticut, unusual UFO reports from Brussels, and a haunted library story with a room the library says never existed. From lunar creatures to disputed encounters, how does a strange story become something people believe? Henrique's birthday wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wish...
