Venture into the bizarre 1955 encounter that became known as the Kentucky Goblins Incident, when the Sutton family and their friends reported being attacked by strange, small creatures at a farmhouse near Kelly, Kentucky. Explore the hours of frightening encounters, the creatures described as having unusual appearances and seemingly unnatural abilities, and the desperate attempts to keep them outside.
Ep 1:
A Farmhouse Under Siege
In 1955 Kelly, Kentucky, a silver object falls from the sky and a family finds itself trapped in their farmhouse, firing hundreds of rounds at silent, bulletproof creatures that won't go away.
Ep 2:
The Long Night Isn't Over
Police arrive to find bullet holes and no bodies—yet the creatures return before dawn, launching the Suttons into infamy, ridicule, and a debate over drink, hoaxes, and owls that never quite fits.
Ep 3:
The Paradox Beneath the Hills
If these beings crossed the stars, why peer through farmhouse windows? A philosophical detour into interstellar mischief leads to Kentucky folklore, a watched child, and a chilling 2012 email from Hellier.
Ep 4:
Emails from an Impossible Place
A mysterious correspondent vanishes after sending dermal-ridged footprints and blurry photos, and a second stranger's cryptic message ties two unrelated hauntings together in ways no hoax should be able to explain.

Level 4 · 1 week agothe part about the creatures never actually entering the house but just circling it for hours got me. like they had every opportunity and just... didn't. that detail alone keeps me up more than anything else in this story

Level 6 · 1 week agoThe owl theory gets too much airtime. Owls don't float inches off the ground or make metallic sounds when shot. That explanation collapses fast.

Level 4 · 1 week agoKelly Kentucky: where 11 people, 3 shotguns, and 100+ rounds couldn't stop creatures that apparently just wanted to peep through windows like nosy neighbors. Bulletproof goblins and they chose rural Kentucky. Bold destination choice.
