The Wandering Crow: An Exploration of the Supernatural, Paranormal, Strange, Occult, and Mysterious

Welcome to The Wandering Crow, a thought-provoking journey into all things supernatural, paranormal, high strangeness and often spiritual: realms of entities and spirits, monsters, demons, cryptids, occult, misunderstood religions, mythology, extraterrestrials, death, the veil and the afterlife. Learn about historical legends, lore across cultures, myths, supernatural encounters and paranormal phenomenon as our panel of hosts, Mandy, Abbey, Cameron, and JT, research and share. We learn and discuss topics with an open mind, offering diverse perspectives and a safe space to consider all sides of the conversation through different spiritual and religious lenses ranging from animism, paganism, shamanism, mainstream religions, to cautious skepticism. Listen in as if sitting around the campfire with us as we share many true ghost stories in a relaxed conversational talk-show manner. We do our best to make new connections and revive old traditions of spiritual lore. Through open curiosity and genuine respect, we hope to expand our limited knowledge of the world and maybe even alternate dimensions beyond our tangible reality.
