It's our first episode going into Halloween, so we're going in easy with a classic case - the strange abduction, and reappearance, of ZIGMUND ADAMSKI!
Adamski was a Poish born coal miner from Tingley, West Yorkshire, who disappeared under strange circumstances in June 1980. His reappearance five days later was even stranger, and far more sinister...
And what of Alan Godfrey, the stalwart policeman who was first on the scene? Could his experiences possibly be any weirder?
Press PLAY to find out!

Welcome back to KRAKEN COVE!!
In episode 55 we look at folk who got rather too familiar with the animal kingdom ( Benny included), but more importantly we take a look at the Patterson Gimlin Bigfoot Tape, arguably both the most famous AND controversial Bigfoot film footage on the planet. Benny thinks it's genuine, Matt is sure it's fake... LET BATTLE COMMENCE!! Either way it's a pretty fascinating subject!
Can we also say that it's nearly the Spooky Month, October, the run up to our favourite feast, HALLOWEEN!! Please get in touch with any stories, sightings or anecdotes, and our favourite story will receive a very special prize!!

It's time to pop on a tin foil hat because the world has gone a bit crazy!
Yes, at Kraken Cove we're feeling a bit overwhelmed by the madness, but never fear! A bit of casting out the lighthouse light can illuminate the world a little bit.
This week we look at little people again - real, or imagined? We roll straight into the Gremlins of WWII, we cover a few Strange Deaths, we examine a lady who claims to be married to the ghost of the kiddy fiddling King of Pop, and we FINALLY examine the peculiar tale of the Niner's Quarry Thing!
So crack out the tinfoil, fashion yourself a thought-proof fedora, and listen to KRAKEN COVE!

The lads land a whopper off The Cove's shores today, but when Matt gets casting, all the whoppers are chucked back in the sea!
In this episode Matt and Benny look at the strange case of Edward Mordake, they peak under a porch and find a very oddball collection, they try to fathom what the hell a Time Crystal is and revisit the unsettling cases of Havana Syndrome cropping up in Vienna, among other subjects!
In this episode we refer to a superb resource for cryptids around the world. The map is called Deborah Hatwells Cryptid Creatures and provides excellent first hand accounts of unusual encounters, and where & when they occured. We hope Deporah doesn't mind our referring to this excellen archive but please do check it out here:
We'd like to apologise for the slightly less regular releases of Kraken Cove - this is a temporary thing and weekly episodes will resume very soon!
Cheers!
