'GLIMMER MAN' - CLOAKED HUMANOID, CRYPTID OR ALIEN? JOIN US LIVE in Chat - Lon Strickler (Host)
Welcome to Phantoms & Monsters 'Personal Reports' - cryptid & unexplained accounts directly from the archives of Phantoms & Monsters, and the Phantoms & Monster Fortean Research team. Narrated by Lon Strickler. Join us in the chat, discuss, and ask me questions about the accounts. Featured in this edition: It's interesting how some phenomena that are depicted in films & television are later seen by eyewitnesses. Is it a 'tulpa' effect or did the original creators have a similar encounter? In the years since the original 'Predator' film, there have been many sightings of the 'Glimmer Man' throughout the world, but more so in North America. The 'Predator' franchise was originally created by brothers John and Jim Thomas. I have attempted, over the years, to gather insight as to how they came up with the cloaking concept. So far, I still have no tangible information. Several of the Chicago Mothman witnesses who have talked to our investigative team have described the winged humanoids as being like the 'Jeepers Creepers' creature as well. Do these memes or tropes from films, the internet, and pop culture influence what witnesses observe? What are your thoughts? In this episode, I will describe the reports and incidents in detail and answer all questions from the chat room.
