GHOST HUNTERS

In the UK region, a lot of ancient "cup and ring" patterns are found etched into stone. One very interesting rock with these designs is found in Scotland and called the "Cochno Stone." The carvings date about about 5000 years in the Bronze Age. It is 42 feet by 26 feet and was kept covered up to protect from vandals, but scientists are going to 3D map it and give it another look after a considerable time of dormancy. The meaning of the symbols is vague and interestingly there are feet carved out on the stone as well with only four toes. ( LINK )  History researcher Alexander McCallum, who has lobbied to have the stone uncovered, said there were multiple interpretations for the carvings. “Some people think that the Cochno Stone is a map showing the other settlements in the Clyde Valley – that’s one of the theories. I think it was probably used for lots of things; it was never used for just one thing and over hundreds of years it changed use,” said McCallum. “As far a

Her real name was Anneliese Michel.  In 1968, German girl, 17-year-old Anneliese, began to have convulsions. She was eventually diagnosed with grand mal seizures. It could have been dismissed, but while praying, she began to hear devilish tormenting voices. Her condition spiraled and in 1973, she was classified as having depression and suicidal thoughts.  In 1975, her parents were certain she was possessed and they withdrew her from mental heath care for exorcism rites instead. Some of her odd behaviors had the family begging for exorcism and finally after a few attempts, the bishop granted it. They reported that their daughter would not walk past a certain figure of Jesus, that she smelled horrendous, and was afraid of the crucifix.  Father Renz and Pastor Alt came to the aid of the family. The two carried out 67 rites of exorcism over a 10-month period.    Given her age and her symptoms, many conclude that Anneliese suffered from schizophrenia and these long rites of exorcism by her

There is something that unifies all the unexplained and likely this is related to something within the earth itself, from piezo-electricity, electromagnetic fields, geology, and gravity that helps to either feed, fuel, or create reactions with the unexplained to the point it either is seen more readily by us or it location specific. Let's have a look at some maps of phenomena and see what we can infer from it -  Below is a map of Bigfoot sightings around the US. Below is a map of UFO sightings around the US These two are looking almost identical, eh? Below is a map of where ancient giant skeletons have been uncovered. Are we seeing a pattern yet?  Below is a map of geology of the US The green and hot pink areas show granite and limestone; two geologic formations often associated with hauntings. Let's look at another map - US population density. It goes without saying that where people are located, more sightings of the unusual will be reported. It's sort of like; if there i

Lon Strickler, one of my favorite researchers from Phantoms and Monsters site (and books), is looking for more witnesses to add to the archive of recent sightings of a Mothman-like creature in the Chicago area.

Continuing this series of world traveler, researcher and adventurer, Don Monroe, I'd like to explore the case of the cave bones.  "I have 13,000-year-old bones."  I chuckled. "You're not THAT old, Pirate Man."   Don had gotten used to me referring to him as Adventure Man and Pirate Man , as his world traveling, voracious appetite for book learning, and real-world survival skills made him the epitome of a renaissance man. For such an entity, one must have a "handle," like "Indiana Jones."  "Ha! No, carbon dated. I found them in a cave. Let me tell you about this one. Are you seated? This is gonna take a while." He asserted. And so Don's experiences unfolded in the most riveting and unexplained story.... He had found a cave that was interesting and inside it had a pool of blue ice about a foot deep next to a huge stone slab. Inside the ice, there were lots of bones, just tons of them, as if trapped there when the cave was und
