What if your family barbecue was interrupted by a UFO returning your brother from an abduction? A surreal sighting triggers decades of suppressed memories, shared encounters, and chilling threats from mantis-like entities. The brothers recall walking through walls, mind control, and their mother’s abduction in 1959, revealing a dark, interdimensional agenda. This isn’t just another alien story…it’s the one they never wanted told.

In episode 220 we talk with Wendy who has had some of the most dramatic experiences we've ever had shared on The Confessionals! She has been tormented by pure evil throughout her life and she shares all with us today including a time that entities came into her room, told her that they were taking her soul as they shoved their arms into her chest. If the paranormal isn't enough, Wendy shares a story of when she first got married and her new husband went off the deep end and almost killed her and those around them.
Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

Paralyzed by fear, he knew something monstrous was just beyond the light. In this bone-chilling episode, Charlie relives a terrifying encounter with a massive, shadowy figure while working alone on an oil rig in East Texas. But that’s only the beginning. He describes chilling encounters with a ghostly Native figure, a seductive fire spirit, and the overwhelming sense that something ancient was hiding just out of sight. As he and Tony connect the dots through scripture, Nephilim lore, and spiritual warfare, this story becomes more than a cryptid encounter—it’s a warning.

In this gripping episode, Bo Kennedy returns to share the spiritual warfare that’s not just theory—but personal. From his daughter’s chilling attempts to summon Lilith, to his own battles with depression, addiction, and generational darkness, Bo opens up about the supernatural forces that tore through his family and nearly took him out. What started as podcasting strange stories soon became a frontline ministry of deliverance, exorcism, and uncovering the real enemy behind mental illness and trauma. With raw honesty and no sugarcoating, Bo reveals how spiritual warfare, self-deliverance, and the authority of Christ became his only weapons in a fight most Christians don’t even know they’re in.

Description:
In Episode 510: Dogman Interdimensional Portals, we are joined by Hunter. I believe Hunter holds a key to better understanding the depths of the strange topics we cover on this show. Hunter has dreams that he says are more real than the "waking world." During one of these dream experiences, he encountered a dogman that was targeting his family. When he stepped in-between them, the beast turned its attention to Hunter and started to rip him apart. When Hunter woke up, he was sitting up in his bed, but had scratches on his back and handprint bruises on his shoulder. One could say the dream was so vivid Hunter injured himself while sleeping, and Hunter would have been happy to believe the same thing. But he can no longer entertain that theory because one day, shortly after the dream, he was out in the woods with his son when the same dogman beast revealed itself to them and chased them through the forest. How can Hunter's dream beast appear on this side of reality? Are dreams more than what we are traditionally taught they are? Is the human mind a gateway or portal to a whole other realm that is as real as you and me?

Description:
In episode 765: The Woods Held Its Secret, Tony is joined by Damon, who recounts a harrowing seven-year stretch of childhood spent on a remote property in Missouri, land he believes was a “window area,” a breach between dimensions. What started with thrown chairs and eerie basement figures escalated into full-blown encounters with entities beyond explanation: a bat-like humanoid with white eyes emerging after he lifted an egg-shaped rock, a giant black beast that stalked his mother from across a lake, and shadows moving across windows where no one stood. Within the house, the atmosphere turned toxic, drawing the family into constant conflict, sleepwalking episodes, and emotional breakdowns that vanished as soon as they moved away.
Tony and Damon dive deep into what might have been feeding off the fear and negative energy within the home. From dreams they still have about the place to theories involving pyramid-shaped UFOs, covert installations, and fallen angel tech, the conversation explores the idea that this wasn’t just a haunted property—it was a supernatural operation. One that didn’t just observe, but manipulated, fed, and possibly marked those who lived there.

Description:
In episode 764: Dream Hacking Agenda, Tony is joined by returning guest Vicki Joy Anderson to expose a chilling truth most aren’t ready to hear: your mind is no longer off-limits. What begins as a conversation about lucid dreaming and sleep technology quickly evolves into a high-stakes discussion on AI, Silicon Valley’s hidden agendas, and the ancient entities possibly feeding humanity its darkest innovations.
From Silicon Valley elites receiving visions from shadow realms to the rollout of the Halo Headband—designed not for entertainment but to manipulate and prolong your lucid dreams—Tony and Vicki dig deep into the idea of “noetic sovereignty,” or your right to control your own thoughts. They uncover how new tech like Prophetic’s dream devices and REMspace’s real-time lucid dream communication are laying the groundwork for digital possession, mind mining, and the loss of free will—one click of “I agree” at a time.

Description:
In episode 763: They Escaped Ouija's Dark Grip, Tony is joined by Travis, a man whose teenage curiosity led him into a nightmare that wouldn’t end. What began as a harmless game with friends escalated into terrifying encounters with a spirit named "Non"—a presence that etched its name into their notebooks, manipulated the physical world around them, and unleashed chaos with every session. Travis recounts nights filled with static-blasting speakers, chairs moving on their own, and birds and wind responding to rituals performed in eerie sync. But the scariest moment came when the board claimed it had possessed one of them—and demanded a cross before midnight to save his soul.
This episode tracks Travis’s descent into spiritual oppression, addiction, and darkness—and the powerful moment of self-deliverance when he encountered the real authority of Christ. From face-to-face encounters with a grinning hat man to a whirlwind of invisible entities leaving his body, Travis shares a raw, redemptive journey that proves the supernatural is real—and so is the victory found in Jesus.

Description:
In episode 762: Holy Spirit: God Within You, Tony is joined by author and evangelist David Diga Hernandez, whose life has been shaped by the Holy Spirit. From shadow figures and whispered voices to a warlock in his family line, David shares how generational darkness targeted him from childhood. But it was a hotel room prayer at age 11 that shattered the grip of fear and introduced him to the overwhelming presence of Jesus. What followed was a journey through spiritual deserts, battles with striving, and the discovery that the Holy Spirit isn’t earned—He abides.
Tony and David dive into the layers of deliverance, the deception of performance-based faith, and why Gen Z is being pulled between witchcraft and revival. This conversation cuts to the heart of spiritual warfare and reveals how true freedom comes not from formulas, but from surrender.

Description:
In episode 761: Recruited By A Demon Prince, Tony is joined by John, a former occultist whose story begins with childhood encounters that defy reason and ends in a radical deliverance only God could orchestrate. At age five, John was approached by a crowned, eight-foot-tall owl—later revealed to be Stolas, a high-ranking Prince of Hell. What followed was a descent into the darkest corners of spiritual warfare, including being taken to a throne room in hell, initiated through rituals, and taught ancient metaphysical practices by both demons and secret societies like the Rosicrucians.
But this isn't just a story about darkness—it's about redemption. From casting spells into drugs and opening portals at festivals, to hearing the literal voice of God and building frequency-based technology meant to restrain the forces of hell, John shares how Christ shattered the chains of his past and put him on assignment to battle evil in a legalistic spirit realm. With shocking confessions, insider knowledge on spiritual contracts, and a prophetic call to prepare for the deception of the end times, this episode is not for the faint of heart—but it's exactly the wake-up call the Church needs.

Description:
In episode 760: They Lied to You About the Rapture, Tony is joined in studio by Pastor Alan DiDio, whose radical encounter with Jesus launched him into a lifelong mission to understand and teach the truths of Bible prophecy. What began with a powerful dream just days after his salvation, standing in a field as a storm brews and a clock strikes 11:59, became the catalyst for a 25-year journey into the most controversial and misunderstood event in eschatology: the Rapture.
Together, Tony and Pastor Alan confront the confusion, mockery, and division surrounding the Rapture, both inside and outside the Church. They tackle biblical patterns of supernatural disappearances, the reality of glorified bodies, the parallels between Enoch and modern believers, and why the disappearance of millions will be more than a sci-fi headline, it will be a tipping point for human history. They also address the dangers of spiritual apathy, red-pilled pride, and the false security many Christians place in end-times theories rather than the Word itself.

On Episode 176: Red Eyed Demons Dogs, we have Maria, a military veteran, on the show to talk about her lifelong trials with the paranormal side of life. Her experiences seemed almost inevitable since birth, when she was born into a lineage of witches that set the course of her life. She has many experiences to share, but one in particular that stands out from the rest is the night Maria witnessed a pack of red eyed demon dogs roaming her military base!

Description:
In episode 759: The Frequency Trap, Tony is joined by Dr. Simeon Hein, a former university professor turned paranormal researcher whose lifelong skepticism toward mainstream science began with a childhood UFO encounter. From studying fractal geometry and chaos theory to exploring the suppressed edges of reality, Dr. Hein explains how remote viewing, radio frequencies, and quantum mechanics reveal a world our institutions refuse to acknowledge. He unpacks how phenomena like solar neutrinos, bleed-through realities, and fractal irregularities explain remote viewing accuracy and why Bigfoot might be both flesh and blood and something else entirely.
This conversation ventures deep into cloaked entities, frequency modulation, and parallel dimensions where cryptids, orbs, and shadow figures operate beyond our limited perception. Dr. Hein shares firsthand accounts of psychokinetic masters in Japan, electromagnetic anomalies tied to cryptid sightings, and why the scientific establishment deliberately avoids high-strangeness data. From government suppression to a changing cultural tide, this episode rips open the hidden architecture of reality, and calls for science to confront what it’s been running from for over a century.

Description:
In episode 758: Secrets Inside The Temple, Tony is joined by Heidi Luv from the Unfiltered Podcast, a woman born into the royal bloodlines of Mormonism who spent decades devoted to the faith—until a cascade of truth shattered everything she thought she knew. Raised in Utah’s Mormon stronghold and married in the temple at just 17, Heidi ascended through the ranks of spiritual rituals, secret oaths, and Masonic rites, believing it was all in service to God. But what began as devotion became a deep unease, and when she set out to prove her born-again mother wrong, she stumbled into a world of secrets the Church hoped no one would ever expose.
In this episode, Heidi unpacks the disturbing symbols, oaths, and occult echoes within the temple ceremony itself, rituals she once participated in, now revealed through a lens of spiritual warfare and painful hindsight. From secret handshakes and fig-leaf aprons given by Lucifer, to kneeling between mirrors she believes served as portals, Heidi peels back the spiritual deception she once called sacred. But her story isn’t just about uncovering darkness, it’s about deliverance. After losing nearly everything, her health, her family, even her daughter, Heidi found God not in a building, but in the quiet places of suffering and surrender. This is more than an exposé of religious control; it’s a testimony of awakening, courage, and redemption.

In episode 757: Trapped by a Dream Demon, Tony is joined by Kurtis, whose childhood was overshadowed by silent evil and secrets no one dared speak aloud. Raised by a stepfather who rejected him and surrounded by a family that vanished without explanation, Kurtis later discovered he was the target of a generational nightmare, one involving satanic rituals, Masonic rites, and brutal human hunting games in the woods. These weren't random acts of abuse, but orchestrated events tied to secret societies and soul-binding covenants, designed to fracture identity and hand down spiritual bondage.
Kurtis recounts being stalked by dark entities, manipulated through mirror portals, and haunted by a cloaked figure he calls the “Dark Man.” But even amid the trauma, the grip of evil begins to break. Through visions, spiritual warfare, and divine intervention, Kurtis fights to reclaim what was stolen and expose the system that tried to destroy him. This episode isn’t just a tale of survival, it’s a war story from the frontlines of generational deliverance.

Description:
In episode 756: Second Heaven Soul Hunters, Tony is joined once again by Dan Duval for a mind-bending conversation that rips the veil off the unseen realm, and what’s bleeding through it. This episode dives headfirst into the mystery of the second heaven, the spiritual dimension that lies between Earth and Heaven, and the ancient war that still echoes into our present. Dan unpacks the biblical concept of Arche, the realm of beginnings, and how our spirits existed in God before conception. But with that revelation comes a stunning possibility: many are born already in bondage, tied to soul trades, pre-Adamic trauma, and cosmic conspiracies that predate Eden itself.
Together, Tony and Dan unravel real accounts of soul hunting, time travel-induced soul fragmentation, and the second heaven’s connection to extraterrestrial phenomena. From hidden labs and off-planet abductions to spiritual generals fighting pre-Adamic wars against counterfeit creation templates like the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, nothing is off the table. They explore how rituals, timelines, and interdimensional warfare all collide in the effort to break cycles of trauma through the blood of Jesus.
This isn’t fringe—it’s frontline.
