Jason CVANCARA

The 918 Files was created by Jason Cvancara, a former Phoenix Police Officer and Air Force veteran who has a love for the unknown. All of the content is based on odd or unusual events that have taken place in Arizona. The videos and podcasts are 100% real but the book series...well let's just say some are based on real events and some might be based on real events.

If you have experienced something odd or unusual while in Arizona and would like to share your story, send me a message!

When he’s not investigating the unknown or telling stories, Jason runs Zona Coffee Company...a small-batch coffee brand inspired by Arizona’s strange beauty. Every mystery deserves a good cup of coffee.
