Incoming Transmission from the Veil of Shadows Command
There are creatures on this planet older than fear itself. Predators that don’t haunt dreams, they create them. For the next several months, one of our weekly dispatches will shift its gaze from the skies above to the killing grounds below.

The Voshod 1 Sighting
Space is supposed to be empty... Silent... Predictable. But in October of 1964, three Soviet cosmonauts orbiting high above Earth reported something that defied all of those expectations. They didn’t see a meteor, or another spacecraft, or a trick of light. They saw something structured. Something beautiful. Something that shouldn’t have been there.

The Tina Resch Story
It all began with a flash... not lightning, not supernatural energy, but the harsh glare of a newspaper camera. March 1984, a modest home in Columbus, Ohio. A teenage girl sits on a couch, eyes wide with terror, as a telephone flies across the room, captured midair by photographer Fred Shannon.

The 1952 Washington D.C. UFO Flyover: The Night the Skies Went Silent
It started with a blip... Then another... Then seven. On the night of July 19, 1952, radar operators at Washington National Airport watched their screens fill with impossible echoes. Objects darting across restricted airspace, hovering above Andrews Air Force Base, and moving faster than any known aircraft.

The Mothman: The Winged Omen of Point Pleasant
It began with red eyes in the dark. Not glowing like flashlights, not reflecting like animal eyes... they burned, steady and unnatural, staring out from the abandoned TNT plant on a cold West Virginia night in 1966.

The Betz Sphere: The Alien Orb That Fought Back
In the spring of 1974, a Florida family stumbled upon something they couldn’t explain. It wasn’t a flying saucer. It wasn’t a creature from another world. It was a perfectly polished metal sphere, about the size of a bowling ball, lying in the ashes of a brush fire on their property.

Veil of Shadows Case File #27: The Brownsville Encounter
The last heat of summer still clung to the Willamette Valley when the sky opened over a quiet stretch of Highway 99. In 1954, there was no I-5 slicing through the fields, only a two-lane ribbon of blacktop winding through Brownsville, Oregon; flanked by stubbled farmland that had already surrendered its hay. The air was cool enough to keep the windows rolled up on the old 1938 Packard as three individuals made their way down the highway.

The Day the Navy Chased a Tic Tac: The Nimitz Encounter
They were supposed to be doing nothing more exotic than a training hop: a little touch-and-go practice over the Pacific, the kind of routine that leaves a pilot bored and quietly grateful for coffee. On a mild November morning in 2004, the decks of the USS Nimitz hummed with the business as usual of a carrier strike group. Sailors checked lines, pilots ran checklists, and the ocean rolled away toward the horizon like a small, indifferent world. Then a blip... tiny and inscrutable... began to rearrange the assumptions of everyone who saw it.

The Vanishing: Five Lost in the Bennington Triangle
Prologue — Cold Wind Over Glastenbury The wind comes down off Glastenbury Mountain like a long, patient breath. It moves through the black spruce and red maple, rattles the old logging roads, and combs the cleared lines where a town used to be. If you stand quiet enough, you can hear it whistle through things that are no longer here: clapboard houses, mill wheels, footfalls. Voices.

The Sounds From the Attic: The Hinterkaifeck Mystery. Content Warning.
I. The Wind Over Hinterkaifeck The wind still moves through the place where the farm once stood. A lonely patch of earth in Bavaria, swallowed by grass and overburden. Locals say the ground there feels wrong, like it hums faintly when the night grows too still. They call it Hinterkaifeck, though the farmhouse itself is long gone. All that remains is the story. And what a story it is dear readers...
