This week on Sasquatch Watch Radio, we're thrilled to welcome a true veteran of the weird, the wonderful, and the downright spooky: Zach Bales!

Growing up in the mystical foothills of Appalachia, Zach's fascination with ghosts, monsters, and "little green men" started early and never stopped. His lifelong quest for the paranormal has taken him far and wide, spanning the North American continent and over thirty countries across the globe.

From the dense jungles of Latin America to the ancient lands of Northern Africa, the misty moors of England to the historical heart of the Middle East, Zach has come face-to-face with some of Earth's most enduring mysteries. And he's meticulously documented many of these incredible encounters in his five acclaimed books, including The Amateur’s Guide to Ghost Hunting, The Expert’s Guide to Ghost Hunting, and his award-winning Atlas of the Unexplained series, which covers Bigfoot, UFOs, and Mothman. You might even know that The Atlas of the Unexplained: Bigfoot was named "Book of the Year" in 2020 by Loren Coleman’s International Cryptozoology Museum, and The Atlas of the Unexplained: Mothman received the same prestigious recognition in 2024!

Beyond his paranormal pursuits, Zach's passion for folklore and storytelling led him to a distinguished career in English education, where he's spent nearly two decades shaping young minds and was even recognized as the Kentucky Teacher of the Week in 2020.

You might have also seen Zach, often alongside his wife, Melissa, on the convention and festival circuit, or perhaps caught him on television, film, or nationally syndicated radio programs.

And for those of you who love a good mystery, you absolutely have to hear about Paranormal Roadtripper’s Nightmare Gallery in Somerset, Kentucky. Opened by Zach in 2022, this incredible space houses his personal collection of the unusual, unexplained, and otherworldly. And get this: in 2024, the Nightmare Gallery doubled in size, becoming one of the largest and most highly-rated exhibits of its kind anywhere in the world!

Join us as Zach shares his incredible adventures, his insights into the unexplained, and what keeps him chasing those compelling mysteries. You won't want to miss it!
