This Fortean tale is fascinating. This woman claims to have awoken living in a world that is much the same yet very different. Is it a case of mental illness or something more profound. You be the judge.

For those who believe that vampires are only part of fiction, be aware that ancient peoples believed in them and acted accordingly. Archaeologists have recently unearthed a skeleton which was likely the recipient of some “precautionary” treatment at the time of his burial should he decide to awake from the dead. A stake driven into the body of a 16th century vampire. Very spooky!

Imagine catching this on the other end of your line! This small catfish, a Kryptoglanis shajii, is being studied by scientists and is only found in a small region of India. This kind of discovery is why I hold out hope for Bigfoot and other cryptids. We are always discovering new, weird species. I was thinking about going fishing this weekend, but maybe now I’ll pass…yechhh!!!

I’d never heard of this phenomenon, but apparently some folks can turn off a streetlight just by the act of walking past it! There is actually a name for this, it is termed Streetlight Interference (SLI). The theories vary on why this happens but there it is…Charles Fort would be proud. Epoch Times has story on it, I suggest you check it out.

A foot tickling ghost is on the loose at the Hotel Somerset in Somerville, NJ. The owners have called in some real-life ghostbusters to investigate the ghastly goings on. Needless to say, a ghost who started tickling my feet would have me checking out pretty quickly!

“Spirit” pictures were extremely popular and extremely fake during the early history of photography. If you think that paranormal fraudsters are a new thing, think again. The linked article below from Slate does a nice job of profiling two charlatans who practiced the fraudulent fad that lasted for decades. Does this mean all ghost photos are fakes? Certainly not. Should we be careful? Absolutely.

I am always skeptical of low resolution paranormal videos, but all it takes is a single legitimate example to prove there is something out there. Perhaps, that is why I can never turn away from them. A case in point: an angry ghost, a video camera, and a glass that was unfortunate enough to get in the way.
They say those in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones but should ghosts in houses (or a store in this case) throw glasses regardless of how badly the afterlife has treated them? Check out this latest chapter of “ghosts gone wild”.
