From The Sinister District and the Great Beyond!
Welcome to our fourth and newest edition!
First Half: Joining Michael Paul & Mr. Curbs, Lena from Baltimore recalls her encounter with the Hatman when she was 10 years old. She left the experience speechless but oddly at peace. This encounter is like no other, she was not scared of the Hatman at all but rather felt at peace and comfortable.
Second Half: We go on to talk more about her encounter and her friend's encounter as well. The Hatman is famous for being a shadow demon that appears during sleep paralysis, or commonly under the use of drugs, but this case had none of those circumstances strangely. This lead to the discussion of other theories of what this might possibly be. Is this the Hatman? Is this a shadow person or demon? Join us as Michael Paul and Mr. Curbs dive deep into this case to try and find out!
