 5/29/2016 On the Trail of Ted Bundy with Kevin M. Sullivan | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7177

This week on BTE Radio, we return down the dark path of True Crime and back into the world of one of the most charming and notorious brutal serial killers Ted Bundy as we welcome back True Crime Author and Researcher Kevin M. Sullivan as we discuss his new book Trail of Ted Bundy. In the first half hour we welcome back Shawn and Marianne Donley from Dark Shadow Ghost Tours and Panic'D with another episode of the Haunted Spotlight. Then at 8:30 est, noted historical and True Crime Author Kevin M. Sullivan is back again this week as we discuss his new book the Trail of Ted Bundy. Kevin follows up on his widely acclaimed “The Bundy Murders” With the untold back stories in The Trail Of Ted Bundy. The new book is a look into the life of serial killer Ted Bundy, from those who knew him, to those who chased him, and from those who mourned his many victims… The Trail of Ted Bundy: Digging Up the Untold Stories, is a journey back in time, to when Ted Bundy was killing young women and girls in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. It’s told by those who knew him, and you’ll hear their revealing stories, many being voiced and put to print for the very first time. The friends of the victims are here as well, and they too share their insights about the victims, and some of what they tell here had been held back from the investigators, such was their commitment to their deceased friends. It’s also the story of those who hunted Bundy; those who guarded him, and those who otherwise were a part of this strange case one way or another. The book also offers fresh information from the official record in areas not covered in the first book. To have added these “extras” in The Bundy Murders, wouldn’t have made any sense at the time, yet they do make perfect sense here. And finally, for this book, I travelled to every state where Bundy operated except Florida to tell this tale, and I’ve added many of the insights I’ve gained from my years of study into this very elusive and diabolical killer. Join us this week as we welcome back True Crime and History Author Kevin M. Sullivan as we return down the dark path of the serial Killers and go further behind the scenes of Ted Bundy this week on Beyond The Edge Radio. Recent Post

 5/15/2016 Dennis Stoe and America's Stone Henge | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7162

BTE Radio is back this week and we're taking a trip north to a place known as America's Stonehenge. After a week off, BTE Radio is back and so are Eric and Marie. We welcome back The Haunted Spotlights Shawn Donley and Marianne Donley of Panic'D and Dark Shadow Ghost Tours with a new episode. Then at 8:30 we welcome Owner of America's Stonehenge Dennis Stone and we'll talk with Dennis about this mysterious location and what exactly it is and means. About Dennis, Dennis Stone grew up at America’s Stonehenge and has been involved with the site for the last 55 years, and has met a variety of researchers. Also a full-time airline captain, Dennis has traveled extensively around the world to other ancient sites in Europe and North America. He has been on numerous television and radio shows since 1970. When he is not flying, Dennis spends his time at America’s Stonehenge where his wife Pat manages the day-to-day operations of the site. Their son, Kelsey, who is an engineer, has taken an interest in ongoing research. The 4,000-year-old stone ruins of America’s Stonehenge command respect. The passing millennia, the elements, and the cultures that evolved and perished around this sacred megalithic complex have all made the series of stone walls, structures, and giant carved rocks on this granite hilltop in Salem, New Hampshire a historical enigma. Finding a stone wall in the forest of a small New England town is by no means an anomaly, but finding these stone walls joined with intricate man-made stone chambers and lining up with enormous arrowhead-like monoliths that mark lunar and solar positions during events such as solstices and equinoxes, makes this place an archeological and spiritual question to ponder. There is evidence pointing to the Celts as being the architects and builders of this site in New Hampshire -- something that would cause a problem for a lot of U.S. history books. Some of Christopher Columbus’s European ancestors may have beaten him in the race to the new world by as much as 3500 years! For more information on Dennis Stone and his familie's America's Stonehenge I strongly suggest you visit his websitehttp://stonehengeusa.com/ So join us as we're back this week, welcoming Shawn and Marianne Donley of the Haunted Spotlight and this weeks guest Dennis Stone of America's Stonehenge.

 5/01/2016 BTE Creature Features presents the Squatchdetective Steve Kulls | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7164

Back to Back Creature Features just in time for the PA Bigfoot Camping Adventure! This week we welcome back long time Bigfoot Researcher, Paranormal Investigator and Author Steve Kulls. Steve is one of the speakers at the 2016 Pennsylvania Bigfoot Camping Adventure and joins us a the week before to talk with us about his research and findings over the past twenty years. Joining us in the first half hour are Dark Shadow Ghost Tours and Panic'D's Shawn Donley and Marianne Donley with another episode of the Haunted Spotlight. Then Steve joins us at 8:30 to talk all things "Squatchy" About Steve: Steve, a professional investigator, has had a lifelong fascination with the Bigfoot phenomena since an early age. In 1998 after reading "Monsters of the Northwoods", Steve like many of the general population had believed that sightings were exclusive to the Pacific Northwest, learned that there were numerous sighting reports close to his residence in upstate New York. Steve began his quest first in 1998 seeking knowledge from other researchers in the field. In 2003 Steve met two of the authors of Monsters of the Northwoods and was invited to apply for BFRO membership. By that time Steve had his own small grass roots organization and website. After Steve had talked to the lead investigator, Steve conducted picture analysis on the videographer's website where it was determined the time line did not match the photos at all and Steve declared the Sonoma video a hoax on that premise. Several months later it was revealed that the video was perpetrated by the comic duo of Penn and Teller for their cable TV series. Picture Steve exposed the "Georgia Bigfoot Body" hoax and attained information which implicated SFBI CEO Tom Biscardi as being part of the hoax and not being duped as he claimed. Steve also exposed a blog by the name of "Bigfoot Ballyhoo" as a hoax as well, coordinating the tracking down of the real people the site used on the site, to prove the site's claims were a hoax. Steve firmly believes in a "boots on the ground", methodology of obtaining evidence for or against, evidence regarding the Sasquatch mystery. Steve has had three sightings in the last ten years and a handful of what he describes as "most likely, close encounters" with the creatures, after initially entering the field quite skeptical. Steve has appeared on numerous local news programs around the country and national venues such as Fox and Friends, and interviewed in print in over 100 newspapers over the last ten years. Steve has appeared on the History Channel the National Geographic Channel, featured on several programs. He is also the host of the long time running internet radio program Squatchdetective Radio. Steve is a former Licensed Private Investigator, in New York, and retail investigator of 19 years. To learn more about Steve visit his website www.http://squatchdetective.weebly.com/.

 4/17/2016 The Ghosts of Ohio with James Willis | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7265

This week on the show Eric and Marie welcome Author, Investigator and Ohioan Jim Willis as talk about his dozen plus books, some of the haunted locations in Ohio and his research into the paranormal Not since the Headless Horseman went charging through Sleepy Hollow has something come out of the Hudson Highlands of upstate New York as thrilling and chilling as author and paranormal researcher James A. Willis. Fueled by a steady childhood diet of Boo Berry cereal, Creepy magazine, and late-night Vincent Price movies, Willis soon developed a taste for the unexplained and quickly began seeking out all things strange and spooky. When he wasn’t trying to coax the boogeyman out from under his bed for a photo shoot, Willis pondered such eternal questions as what happens to us when we die, is there life on other planets, and what possesses someone to decorate their house with 1,001 milk jugs? In 1999, after spending more than 15 years chasing after ghosts and visiting crybaby bridges, Willis moved to Ohio and founded The Ghosts of Ohio (ghostsofohio.org), a nationally recognized paranormal research organization. Willis has grown the organization to well over 35 members in three divisions throughout the state: Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. In 2004, in what seemed to be destiny, Mark Moran and Mark Sceurman, the brainchilds of the Weird US series of books, approached Willis and asked him to contribute to their latest volume, Weird US . To date, Willis has been involved with 6 books in the Weird US series. He is the co-author of Weird Ohio (2005) and Weird Indiana (2008) and was also a contributing author to Weird US (2004), Weird Hauntings (2006), Weird US II: The ODDyssey Continues (2008), and Weird Encounters (2010). Willis’ unique and offbeat writing style was officially recognized in 2006 with his induction into the Grand Order of Weird Writers. In addition, Willis has been a contributing author to several books in the Armchair Reader series, including Weird, Scary & Unusual (2008), Armchair Reader Goes Hollywood (2010), and Haunted America (2011). In 2012, Willis struck out on his own with the publication of Haunted Indiana. For 2013’s The Big Book Of Ohio Ghost Stories , Willis crisscrossed Ohio to bring readers over 75 of the Buckeye state’s most famous (and infamous) ghosts. Willis’ latest project, Ohio’s Historic Haunts: Investigating the Paranormal in the Buckeye State , was a joint effort with Kent State University Press. Released in late 2015, the book approached hauntings and ghost stories from a historical perspective and chronicled Willis’ personal experiences when locked inside of some of Ohio’s most haunted locations. A sought-after public speaker, Willis has given presentations throughout the United States, during which he has educated and entertained tens of thousands of people of all ages in crowd sizes ranging from 10 to well over 600. He has also been featured in more than 75 media sources, including CNN, USA Today, Columbus Business First, Midwest Living, The Canadian Press , and even the Kuwait Times . Willis currently resides in Columbus, Ohio, with his wife and daughter, a Queen-loving parrot, and three narcoleptic cats.
