Ep. 2251 John Olsen: Stranger Bridgerland

Tonight, Monday on FADE to BLACK: Author and investigator John Olsen joins us to uncover the true, chilling encounters behind his Stranger Bridgerland series. From UFOs and cryptids to shadowy beings and bizarre portals, John reveals why the American West is one of the most active paranormal hotspots in the country.

John was born and raised in Cache Valley. At the age of 8, he began to realize that the home he lived in was peculiar. His parents still own the old farmhouse, built in the mid-1880s. Strange experiences such as phantom knocks, loud boots running the stairs, and missing objects became commonplace for him as he grew up. With each run-in with what he called the "man in the hat," John's interest in the paranormal grew. 

Fueled by his own experiences with the unknown, John has spent the last 30 years interviewing and documenting first-hand accounts of those who have witnessed all kinds of strange and unusual phenomena in the western United States. The Stranger Bridgerland series contains firsthand accounts of ghosts, monsters, hauntings, glitches in the matrix, Sasquatch, and UFOs.
