Phantoms & Monsters Radio - UNEXPLAINED NEW JERSEY: Pine Barrens Monsters, Mantis Men, & Garden States Nightmares
from Para-X Radio · host neghostproject
Tonight on Phantoms & Monsters Radio, we return to the Garden State for a rebuilt and expanded presentation: UNEXPLAINED NEW JERSEY. New Jersey is famous for the Jersey Devil and the Pine Barrens, but the state’s unexplained history reaches far beyond one legendary creature. In this episode, we examine reports of a Dogman or Wolfman-like creature near Manchester, UFO and orb activity in Cumberland County, the controversial Fort Dix/McGuire AFB alien body retrieval claim, a winged humanoid at the Old Essex County Jail in Newark, possible Bigfoot activity in Belleplain State Forest, a terrifying Black-Eyed Kids encounter in Atlantic City, a Fairview UFO abduction account, and the bizarre Musconetcong River Mantis Man. These reports suggest that New Jersey may be a concentrated zone of overlapping phenomena, including cryptids, UFOs, humanoids, dimensional anomalies, and high-strangeness encounters. Please like, share, comment, and subscribe to Phantoms & Monsters Radio for more eyewitness accounts, investigations, and unexplained case files. 👤 I'm Lon Strickler, creator of Phantoms & Monsters, and I’ve been a paranormal researcher and intuitive investigator for over 45 years. My work has been featured on numerous television shows, including Ancient Aliens, Paranormal Witness, Monsters and Mysteries in America, and Unsolved Mysteries, as well as on radio shows such as Coast to Coast AM.
