Never Whistle in the Woods: Nahanni Valley’s Secrets & Creatures

Metaphysical

Never whistle in the woods. Forests like those in the Nahanni Valley contain secrets, like strange creatures, that are attracted by the sound. And that’s not the only mystery. An entire native tribe disappeared into thin air, the fires still burning in their teepees. Giant, dark creatures from the woods terrified villagers—and even made them go mad. Cannibalistic mountain people were spotted, looking more like dwarves of legend than like men. Explorations to find a mysterious vault in the Nahanni Valley led to underground, ancient secrets. Join remote viewer John Vivanco and investigative researcher Rob Counts for a Metaphysical show that’s out of this world.

If you go to the Nahanni Valley in Canada, don’t whistle in the woods because you’ll either terrify locals or you might invite something even worse to hunt you. The native people to the valley, the Dene, recorded a big, strong, warlike race called the Naha in their history. But one day, they suddenly disappeared. Where did they go? How does a folk tale of “Annie Lafferty”—the girl who went mad, shed her clothes, and scaled walls—compare with a 1933 newspaper article about a different (but possibly the same) Lafferty girl? Are tales of the brooding “Nakani,” a mysterious, Bigfoot-like creature, actually real? One man who lived with the natives in 1876, Father Emile Petitot, and a trader in 1879, B.R. Ross, had firsthand knowledge of the Nakani. Were sightings of creatures just figments of the local tribe’s overactive imagination, or was something more happening on the lands of the Nahanni? And what about rumors of the treacherous tundra having a secret, warm oasis? A 1937 article with the perspective of an expert-in-aviation Arctic explorer set the record straight about what’s up beyond the mountains. John Vivanco brings his team’s remote viewing data to every story, newspaper report, and legend Rob Counts found, and the pair discuss the surprising ways zinc mines are being used by clandestine groups and even extraterrestrial beings.
