Episode 76 - The Baltic Sea Anomaly

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

In June of 2011, Peter Lindberg, Dennis Åberg and their Swedish OceanX diving team discovered a feature visible on an indistinct sonar image while treasure hunting on the floor of the northern Baltic Sea at the center of the Gulf of Bothnia. The seemingly remarkable circular shape of the object led to tremendous amounts of speculation. Everything from the ruins of an ancient civilization to a downed extraterrestrial craft has been considered. Could either of these be the case, or could this whole thing be a hoax; an attempt by the treasure hunters to sell mystery-driven submarine tours to wealthy tourists?

GET HYPED FOR OUR MOST DISTRACTED ADVENTURE YET!

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.
