Who hunted them? A mysterious “Valley of Headless Men” serial killer in the Nahanni National Park area caused such intense fear during the first half of the 1900s that stories flew. Some whispered of fearsome creatures, mysterious fogs, and cannibalistic tribes. Others claimed “gold fever” after numerous bodies were found decapitated with unexplainable circumstances around their deaths. It’s clear that SOMETHING hunted down and killed the explorers and miners in northern Canada, but who was the culprit? Rob Counts conducted deep investigative research to sift through the repeated stories everyone tells about the Nahanni Valley and went to the source: He found the original newspaper articles that detailed the real circumstances. Simultaneously, John Vivanco and his team of remote viewers gathered nonlocal information on what caused all the strange disappearances in the Valley of Headless Men. Between the two of them, they uncovered things no other show has been able to about what really happened in the Nahanni Valley. Want to hear the truth? Watch this episode of Metaphysical for a show that’s out of this world. In this episode: Since 1908, more than 20 men have reportedly died searching for a gold mine in Canada’s Nahanni Valley. Most of them perished by decapitation or disappearing completely. The mine they were looking for was the infamous “Lost McLeod Mine,” made famous by the brothers who discovered it, Willie and Frank McLeod, who were later also found headless. Who were these decapitated men? What caused their deaths? Most importantly, what made the Nahanni Valley so treacherous—a land that terrorized the natives, causing them to live in perpetual fear? As of 1937, according to one old newspaper, “Thirteen men have already disappeared up the foaming Nahanni river that plunges from the unexplored hinterland between the Mackenzie valley and Alaska. All but the last two of those thirteen were later found murdered. The last two have never been found.” Could there have been even more true crime mysteries going on? Who was the “Mad Trapper of Rat River,” and how was his story related to the bigger picture? After you hear the details, you’ll be amazed that ANYONE could have survived such harsh conditions. 🛒 Shop Metaphysical Merch💻 Watch Metaphysical and more on Rise TV🎧 Listen on Spotify🎧 Listen on Apple Podcasts 📱 Follow on Social Media: TikTokInstagramXThreadsRedditTelegram
