  • Aleister Crowley: The Beast, the Sex, and the Nazis
    Oct 5 2025

    He called himself The Great Beast 666, claimed to summon demons in the desert, and offered to psychically fight Hitler for the British government. It’s House of Weird’s deep dive into the life and chaos of Aleister Crowley — the poet, magician, pervert, and self-declared prophet who may or may not have started modern occultism by accident.

    This week, Andrew and Simon explore the bizarre career of the “Wickedest Man in the World” — from Victorian England to the sands of Algeria, from sex magick to Nazi mystics — and somehow still find time for inappropriate tangents, mystical euphemisms, and at least one unwise attempt to explain Thelema after a beer.

    If you like your history occult, horny, and slightly confusing, you’ve come to the right podcast.

  • Mothman: The Bird, the Myth, the Legend
    Sep 20 2025

    This week we flap our way into one of America’s creepiest urban legends: the Mothman of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Was it a giant bird, a government experiment gone wrong, or a harbinger of doom? Between glowing red eyes, collapsed bridges, and small-town hysteria, this one’s got it all.

    We cover the original 1966 sightings, the chaos that followed, and how Mothman went from local terror to pop culture icon. Naturally, we also wander off into nonsense, bad accents, and at least one AI tangent we probably should’ve cut but didn’t.

    If you’re into cryptids, curses, urban legends, and two idiots laughing their way through paranormal chaos, you’ll feel right at home.

  • Oak Island: Seven Must Die Before the Treasure is Found (Fun!)
    Aug 23 2025

    For more than 200 years, treasure hunters have been digging into a small patch of ground on Oak Island, Nova Scotia, chasing the promise of buried riches. What started with a depression in the earth beneath an oak tree has spiralled into generations of obsession: pirate loot, Templar relics, Shakespeare’s manuscripts, or maybe just a very elaborate sinkhole.

    In this episode we dig (pun intended) into the Oak Island Money Pit — the strange engineering, the endless theories, the six lives already lost to the so-called “curse,” and why people keep pouring money into a hole that never gives anything back. We also get distracted by the usual nonsense because of course we do.

    If you’re into unsolved mysteries, cursed treasure, weird history, and two idiots who can’t stay on topic, you’re in the right place.

  • The Westall UFO Incident – Melbourne, 1966
    Aug 10 2025

    We’re back poking around in Australia’s weirder history — this time diving into one of the country’s biggest mass UFO sightings. In April 1966, over 200 students, teachers, and locals watched a saucer-shaped craft land in a paddock near Westall High School… before the military turned up and made the evidence — and a lot of the witnesses — go very quiet.

    We’ll cover the frantic chase into The Grange, the sudden men-in-black style shutdown, and the mysterious scorched landing site that vanished within hours. We also manage to drift off into some questionable tangents, as per usual, because restraint has never been our strong suit.

    If you like UFO mysteries, Australian weirdness, conspiracy theories, and two idiots making each other laugh at inappropriate moments, you’ll feel right at home here.

  • The Gurning Man of Glasgow: Creepy, Bald, and Probably Not a Pervert
    Jul 27 2025

    We’re grimacing our way back into the weird this week with a lesser-known Scottish freak: the Gurning Man of Glasgow.

    Described as a bald, grinning figure who shows up in bedrooms, back lanes, and the occasional low-budget AI fever dream, this creepy entity plagued Glasgow in the late ’70s and early ’80s. Is he a ghost? A cryptid? A hallucination brought on by too much Irn-Bru and late-night Buckfast? We don’t know—but we’re here to butcher Scottish accents while trying to find out.

    Along the way, we get derailed by AI hallucinations, wildly inappropriate impressions, and an earnest attempt to figure out if “gurning” is a regional dance move or just something that happens when your face cramps up from fear.

    If you’re into paranormal encounters, cryptids, urban legends, haunted bedrooms, and questionable Scottish impressions, this one’s for you.

  • The Elevator Game – Press for Paranormal
    Jun 29 2025

    This week on House of Weird, we explore the viral urban legend known as The Elevator Game—a creepy ritual that supposedly transports you to another dimension via a specific sequence of button presses. All you need is a 10-storey building, an empty lift, and a questionable sense of curiosity.

    We dig into strange accounts from South Korea, vanishing TikTokers, and the ominous figure of the mysterious woman who may (or may not) follow you back.

    As always, we take a few unexpected detours—into design flaws, lift etiquette, and other areas best left unlabelled.

    🔘 Cursed button combos

    🔘 Stairwell breakdowns

    🔘 Urban legend sleuthing

    🔘 Vibes: eerie with a strong side of nonsense

  • Skinwalker Ranch: High Strangeness and Questionable Biology
    Jun 15 2025

    This week on House of Weird, we’re heading straight into Utah’s most cursed real estate listing: Skinwalker Ranch. It’s got everything — UFOs, poltergeists, cattle mutilations, giant bulletproof wolves, portals, and enough government-funded weirdness to make your head spin.

    We dig into some of the most infamous encounters from the ranch, including glowing orange portals, invisible monsters, and creatures that may or may not know how anatomy works. (Let’s just say the biology department got weird at one point.)

    Along the way, we—as usual—veer off into mildly regrettable discussions that may involve speculative creature design choices nobody asked for, but here we are.

    If you’re into UFOs, cryptids, haunted science experiments, and dumb jokes wrapped around genuinely weird stories—you’ve found your people.

  • They’re Fast, They’re Feral, and They Might Be Wearing Your Face: Skinwalkers
    Jun 1 2025

    We’re back with another barely-researched, definitely-derailed episode of House of Weird—the funny paranormal podcast that dares to ask: what if you saw a coyote on two legs screaming in your mum’s voice? Yeah. That.

    This week, we dive into the Navajo legend of the Skinwalker—a terrifying entity said to be a witch who can shapeshift into animals and mimic human voices. They’re creepy, fast, and often surrounded by the kind of silence that makes your stomach knot.

    We cover:

    • What Skinwalkers are (and why you shouldn’t say their name out loud),

    • Real-life encounters in the desert that’ll make you check your windows at night,

    • Whether coyotes should have knees that bend backwards,

    • And somehow… a side quest involving lube t-shirts.

    Is this episode culturally respectful? We hope so. Is it off-topic in parts? Absolutely. But it’s also a full dose of the weird, the spooky, and two idiots giggling through the dark.

    If you like ghost stories, urban legends, cryptids, and dry Aussie banter—you’re in the right place.
