The Tales We Tell
A podcast about spooky stories, unsolved mysteries, and local lore. Join Hannah, Katy, and Jarek as they mask anxiety with humor, and explore the dark, macabre, and downright creepy side of life, with a different story each week.
The Tales We Tell
Ep. 72: The Abduction of Antonio Villas Boas
Is it a planet? Or a weather balloon? Or perhaps an extravagant hallucination due to toxic pesticides? Judge for yourself, this week when Hannah tells Katy about the abduction of Antonio Villas Boas in 1957: the young Brazilian farmer who claimed to have been taken up into a space craft in the middle of the night by alien beings. The girls make a strong bid to hit every single point on the Tales We Tell Drinking Game, and have a little too much fun discussing their theories and ideas about this strange case, so make sure your cups are full!
