Jonathan Phoinex

Author/ Podcaster

I'm Jonathan Phoinex, author of Through The Flames and Red Coats, as well as your host. I grew up in Georgetown, South Carolina where it seemed impossible to throw a rock without being near some site of paranormal significance. As a youth I would listen to the tour guides as they passsed places where my friends and I played and hear them tell stories about ghost of soldiers, pirates, forlorn lovers and even graveyard caretakers. It was only natural I would develop a love for for storytelling and the paranormal. I honed my craft by entertaining my children, my nieces and their friends by sitting next to the fire at night and sharing with them those same stories. Now I share those stories with you, and sometimes with my friends who also work in the paranormal world.

Gain sentience? Ok we're not really sure what to call it but the bowl of Applesauce has been John's friend ever since, and is always happy to jump on the Podcast to talk about Cryptids and Aliens
