5 Scariest Alien Stories Ever Told on the Joe Rogan Podcast
The Joe Rogan Experience has become a modern hub for controversial topics and mind-bending interviews—but few themes have captured attention like the chilling stories of alien encounters. Across several episodes, guests ranging from documentary filmmakers to Navy pilots have shared their firsthand experiences or investigations into unexplained phenomena. Here are five of the most frightening and compelling alien stories ever told on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
1. The Zimbabwe School Encounter (1994)
Guest: James Fox | Episode #1574
In a remote village in Rua, Zimbabwe, 62 schoolchildren aged 6 to 12 claimed they saw a silver, disc-shaped craft land near their school playground. Several described small humanoid beings with large black eyes and shiny black suits. Strangely, the beings were said to communicate telepathically, warning the children about environmental destruction.
Documentary filmmaker James Fox, initially skeptical, later worked on a film investigating the incident. He interviewed the now-adult witnesses—many of whom had never shared their stories due to fear of ridicule. Their detailed consistency and emotional reactions decades later offer one of the most credible UFO mass sightings in history.
2. Brazil’s Roswell: The Varginha Incident (1996)
Guest: James Fox | Episode #1976
Over a period of several days in January 1996, residents of Varginha, Brazil, reported seeing cigar- and disc-shaped objects flying erratically. But the most terrifying account came from three young women who claimed to encounter a strange creature with oily brown skin, red eyes, and a pungent odor of sulfur.
Witnesses say the Brazilian military captured the being and transferred it to a hospital, where secrecy intensified. A military officer who allegedly touched the being died weeks later from an unknown infection. Fox described firsthand testimonies, including one from a man who transported the entity—saying the encounter ruined his life due to threats and surveillance.
3. Travis Walton’s Alien Abduction (1975)
Guest: Travis Walton | Episode #1597
Travis Walton was part of a logging crew in Arizona when he disappeared after being struck by a beam from a hovering UFO. He reappeared five days later, confused and frightened. He later recalled waking inside an alien craft, surrounded by beings with large eyes and no facial expressions. After attacking them, he met tall, humanoid figures before blacking out.
Walton and his coworkers all passed polygraph tests, and Walton has maintained his story for over 40 years. The physical, psychological, and testimonial evidence surrounding this case continues to challenge skeptics.
4. Joe Rogan’s Visit to Skinwalker Ranch
Guests: Jason Sans & Lenval Logan | Episode #2264
Skinwalker Ranch in Utah has long been a magnet for paranormal activity. Joe Rogan recounted a visit during which he interviewed locals who had experienced bizarre events. One man described a glowing orb entering his house, seemingly communicating telepathically before disappearing through a wall. Other cases involved orbs appearing in doorways and even being caught on camera.
These phenomena tie into a broader pattern of electromagnetic disturbances, unexplained illnesses, and military-level secrecy at the ranch—fueling theories that it sits at a convergence point of interdimensional activity.
5. Navy Pilot Witnesses UFOs Regularly (2014–2015)
Guest: Ryan Graves | Episode #1883
Navy pilot and aerospace engineer Ryan Graves revealed that during training missions off the East Coast, he and fellow pilots routinely saw unidentified flying objects on upgraded radar systems. These craft could hover motionless in 140-mph winds and then accelerate to hundreds of miles per hour in erratic flight paths.
One incident involved a UFO flying directly between two fighter jets. The object was described visually as a dark cube suspended inside a translucent sphere—matching other civilian reports across the U.S. These objects defy known physics and remain unexplained.
Final Thoughts
These five stories highlight a common thread: consistency across witnesses, physical evidence, and long-term psychological impact. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, the accounts shared on the Joe Rogan Experience make it hard to ignore the possibility that we are not alone—and that some of them may already be here.
