The Synchros of Hellier

Recently, we began watching a somewhat spooky documentary series called Hellier, which features a group of paranormal investigators who decide to look into reports of “goblins” appearing on a rural homestead in Hellier, Kentucky. There are numerous old mines in the area and one of them is on the edge of the property in question. One of the investigators received emails from a man named David Christie, who lived in the house in question with his children, and he complains that little being were sneaking around their property at night looking in the windows and scaring the children. Christie also sent them pics of small three-toed footprints in the mud near the mine.

The investigators decide to take a look. However, before they get it together to make the trip from Cincinnati, they receive another email from David who says he’s had enough. He and the three children are abandoning the house. After that, they don’t hear any more from Christie and he doesn’t answer emails or the email address no longer works. Still, the investigators continued on.

The thing about this story that’s particularly interesting for us is that right from the beginning, they talk about synchronicity. It’s one synchro after another as they pursue this adventure. They not only recognize the synchronicities but they follow them making it even weirder. But we had no idea that synchronicity would play any part in the documentary series.

As it turned out there was also a synchro for me (Rob) with this show. We had watched one episode of the series when it first came out in 2019. I had noted at the time that years earlier I had also corresponded with a man named David Christie and we had talked about strange stuff, as well. In our case, it was about the Castaneda saga and the semi-mysterious women who were associated with him. One of whom was an author who I had corresponded with for years and later met at a writer’s conference. So after seeing the episode in 2019, I wrote David Christie asking him if he was the same guy as the D.C. in Hellier. I had my doubts because I remember that he lived in Canada.

After that, we didn’t watch anymore of the series. Maybe it was because there were no other episodes immediately available, and so I forgot the series and  my email to David Christie. Then recently, when Daz mentioned Hellier in a comment here on the blog, I was reminded of the episode we’d seen and we decided to start it again from the beginning. While watching the second episode, I recalled that I had written ‘my’ David Christie and couldn’t remember if he had replied.

So I looked up the email as we were watching and told Trish that Christie had never replied to me. Within seconds, one of the characters who was in a moving vehicle and looking at his phone said the same thing. “David Christie never replied.”

We just watched the third episode and surprisingly, they find out that David Christie was actually writing the emails to them from Canada. Hmm, I thought. Maybe it is the same D.C.

Whatever, it was another synchro about a documentary that essentially is about synchronicities related to their search for the goblins…or whatever they were.
