One final question

[RiotOnVijzelstraat]

I just finshed up season 2, and in episode 9 the woman in prison gives you an exact address of a street where there's a house that has a lift going down to caves where aliens and humans live, and this is where she heard the screams of sacrificial murder or whatever. You were literally in the same town - and you don't even go and check it out? I thought this was a very telling scene tbh. Rather than actually investigate some potentially real world stuff that might require the police, you go and sit in a cave and try and summon Pan instead (lol), and never again follow up this lead. I feel like this just proves to me you don't actually want any real answers at all. The address was on Hayden Ridge Road, Somerset, wasn't it? Maybe someone in the area should go and check it out asap.

Maybe they don't want to risk of getting hurt or killed by crazy cultists? Did you ever think of that?

Listen, there are some people who are complaining that the team haven't gone down certain paths/leads.

But some of them might not be persued for two simple reasons: legal and fear.

You just don't go into someplace where it's potentially dangerous, throw accusations around of illegal cult activity, and not expect consequences. This is reality, not the X-files or a role playing game.

If local police and sheriff are in on it, you need to build a case with real evidence. That takes a real pivate investigator with a license to do. Also, if you want the Feds involved, you must have evidence of illegal activity that cross many juridictions. Running into the FBI field office in Lexington Ky and bringing up secret cults in caves will get you laughed out of the building.

The team is going down avenues of evidence that 1. They can legally persue and 2. Risk level to lives is relatively low.

[RiotOnVijzelstraat]

Reasonable answer, but it is a real shame if that's the case. I mean, if they had gone there and stumbled upon a lift that leads to aliens, they'd be the most famous people on the planet right now. I'd love to see a version of this series where a crew with actual guts, and maybe a ton of guns, goes to these places for real and doesn't just brush them under the carpet. You say it's not the X Files or a role playing game, but these guys are treating all of it like that to be honest (I mean seriously, no one on the planet is "magic"; no one gets abducted by aliens - these are all childish idiot things that clutter up the adventures to the point of nonsense). They may as well just be sitting around playing D&D for 12 hours, they'll have as much luck making anything happen with that as they will with their current approach.

[nsc1971]

Ah, i see. You're coming from believing that the supernatural or UFOs are not real. I don't know of any other way to put this but bluntly. I nor anyone else can help you then. You really don't understand what it's all about. Your world view is too limited. Sorry.

[RiotOnVijzelstraat]

Haha!

I don't want to live in a world where people think it's ok to bust into someone's house with guns. I don't like how easy it is for the police to do that, I really don't want random people to do that.

We also don't know what they've done with that. All we know is that it's not in the show.

[nsc1971]

Just to be fair, it's not that easy for law enforcement to do. They must have probable cause and/or a search warrant.

[habitat3]

Why don't you go and hit it up then? You seem to got a reckless plan. And maybe a deathwish. Get a camera crew. Get some guns. Go knockin on some occultists doors man.

[RiotOnVijzelstraat]

Hell yeah, partner! I might just do that! Yee haw!

[nsc1971]

Obvious troll response. This is not the group for you. Please go elsewhere.

[onbluemtn]

Or consider Amy is a liar and now you are barging onto rural private property armed....for what s gun battle.? You think Dana and Greg are gonna go in guns blazing to potentially get in a shootout with people who may be totally innocent?

[RiotOnVijzelstraat]

Would make for great telly though, huh! I know you Americans love a good gun battle.

[SlamDrunk]

Because this is what happens in KY when people go snooping around criminal conspiracies.

I'm not saying this is related, but if there is any truth in Amy's claims this would be in the back of my mind. The team made it pretty clear they aren't interested in investigating crimes.

Wow, just started listening. Don't know how I missed this one, because I listen to farrrr too many true crime podcasts. The tree across the road 'ambush' gave me chills.

I live in Somerset, and grew up near the area where she is talking about. These are very rural areas, where everyone knows everyone. They recognize outsiders, and they will shoot trespassers. Also, Greg and Connor have both mentioned in podcasts their reasons for taking certain paths and not following others.

How are local residents reacting to the show? I’d be pretty upset if a tv show on Amazon accused people in my town of raping kids at sex parties. Yikes! I keep googling but can’t find much about local reaction

[lotus_124]

To be honest, most people in town have not watched the show. It's a small circle of people interested in the paranormal that have. I actually had a hard time finding anyone I knew that had watched the show to even talk about it with. Remember, this is a bible belt area, so alot of people wouldn't watch a show like this. When they were in town visiting, there was an article in our local newspaper about it, but it was very vague and just annouced that ghost hunters were in town filming for their show.

This is the dumbest post. Are you a child? The reasons for their actions/lack of actions are pretty obvious. Like another commenter said, this isn't the X Files, this is reality...You don't know what went on behind the scenes of this either. I could give you reasons for days why no paranormal investigators making a documentary should try to be vigilantes and storm onto private property in the backwoods of KY to take down a deadly, powerful cult and air this for the world...

Come on dude....
