Donate to our October 2024 OVERCOMING THE DARKNESS campaign at https://weirddarkness.com/overcoming. Weird Darkness is narrated by professional full-time voice actor Darren Marlar. No A.I. voices are ever used in the show. IN THIS EPISODE: It was kept secret for years that the U.S. government spent millions of dollars and decades of research and experiments looking into the paranormal, trying to weaponize psychic powers like remote viewing and mind control. We were told they didn’t find much success – but could that be part of an ongoing secret? What if they did succeed, but don’t want us to know due to “national security” reasons? And what if they aren’t just spying on our enemies, but also on us, the country’s citizens? And if they can do that… can they also control our minds to make us think and do whatever they wish? It’s a disturbing journey.
