Paranormal Files

Paranormal Files

Every story begins the same way: “I can’t explain what I saw.” Hosted by Paige Carter, Paranormal Files investigates true accounts of the unexplained — hauntings, UFO sightings, near-death experiences, cryptid encounters, and supernatural events that blur the line between science and the unknown. Each episode examines the evidence, the eyewitnesses, and the patterns connecting these strange phenomena across time and culture. We don’t claim to have all the answers. We simply ask the questions others are too afraid to ask — and let you decide what to believe. Because sometimes, the truth is the most terrifying part of all. 🌐 Visit: www.theforbiddenknowledgenetwork.com 🔒 Subscribe on Patreon: Get complete video episodes, exclusive bonus content, and full access to everything on The Forbidden Knowledge Network. 👉 https://www.patreon.com/theforbiddenknowledgenetwork
