How To Materialize in a Parallel Universe
Consider what happens, mentally, when you buy a new car. You pick out this unique model with brilliant colors and feel there is something really special about it. In fact, you picked it out precisely because it was special. After signing some contract for payment, you leave the dealership and are driving down the highway, a flurry of other cars whip by you, but the ones that you notice are now the exact car and model that you just bought!

Has Bigfoot already been found?
Is it possible that a Bigfoot or related hominoid was found many years ago and remains hidden away from the public? Cryptomundo.com reported that near the end of the overnight appearance of Jeff Meldrum’s and John Bindernagel’s discussion of Bigfoot on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, September 21-22, 2006, an American, who claimed to be living in the Ukraine, telephoned into the talk-radio program. The credible-sounding individual had an intriguing account…

Cetacean humanoids of the depths
Which is more likely, traversing the vast stellar distances between stars hoping for a ‘hit” or, navigating the ocean floor? The classic alleged phantasm or sentient humanoid irritatingly nicknamed The Grey, has always been an object of speculation in terms of sensate anatomy inasmuch as hearing or receiving sound in an atmosphere would require some sort of ear.

At first, scientists from Harvard, a college in Massachusetts, were trying to randomize a medical study so God wouldn’t know. Now a group of venerable academic psychologists under Dr. Stephen Kosslyn from the same institution reports developing a methodology to study extrasensory perception (ESP), and obtaining the “strongest evidence” yet against the existence of ESP…

Insect attack may have finished off dinosaurs
Asteroid impacts or massive volcanic flows might have occurred around the time dinosaurs became extinct, but a new book argues that the mightiest creatures the world has ever known may have been brought down by a tiny, much less dramatic force – biting, disease-carrying insects…

Mind trip: A complex in Tidewater Virginia is the hub of psychic exploration
Driving north from the tourist beaches on U.S. 60, the streetscape turns suburban. Houses keep the ocean out of view. On the higher ground to the left, you come to a starkly modern building that could pass for a university research library. It’s all the world headquarters and offshoots of Edgar Cayce’s Association for Research and Enlightenment, and whether you spend a few minutes or days here hinges on your view of Cayce…
Kucinich’s UFO sighting: What he really saw
Dennis Kucinich has taken a lot of flak for saying that he once saw an unidentified flying object near Shirley MacLaine’s house back in 1982. The Wall Street Journal just did a front-page story on it, adding to the Kucinich-as-silly-person storyline. But what if he really did see something—just not an alien spaceship?..
Former British Royal Air Force official saw alien orb create crop circle
David Kingston: I have been researching the Crop Circle phenomena since I saw my first one in 1976. I had been on a “night watch” for UFO’s on Clay Hill in Warminster. Three separate orbs of approximately six feet in diameter of coloured light had been weaving around and above us for some three hours on the top of Clay Hill, merging at times into a single globe and then separating again above us, suddenly one of the orbs descended to some thirty feet above us and then flew down into a field at the base of Clay Hill…

Bigfoot walks in hobbyist’s home, shrine
The Center for Bigfoot Studies, like the creature itself, is not easy to find. It hides amid the forest of homes on a quiet Riverside street. No signs or monster-size tracks point the way, but those in the know can pin it down to an upper floor of one unassuming house. There, jammed inside a few small rooms, is one of the nation’s largest repositories of Bigfoot lore…

The taping is being done by an adult. The children shout about a UFO, and then there is a question about whether or not the object is a hot air balloon…
Year of the Yeti begins now!
This Friday will be the official launch of the new publication of the reasonably-priced hardback edition of Ivan T. Sanderson’s classic book, Abominable Snowmen: Legend Come to Life, from Cosimo Classics. This new printing contains a new preface I’ve written, and I will have a few copies, hot off the press, literally, for sale at the Rubin Museum of Art in New York City…

Happy New Year one and all and while our thoughts turn to the potential the next year will have (those of us not lying on the couch feeling sorry for themselves after over indulging last night, best not to mention piercing headaches!!) but to round things off nicely we’ll look back on the stories we blogged up last year, which, we hope, have gone some way to reflecting the interesting stories of the year, as well as our own peculiar obsessions…
Bigfoot, you’re invited to breakfast
A few years before the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington, I worked on a timber-cruising crew near that mountain. We stayed in a barn-like lodge and ate at a nearby diner. During breakfast one morning, Harry R. Truman, who owned Harmony Falls Lodge on Spirit Lake, came in. He was wearing an ancient raincoat and the same wrinkled cap he wore years later when he told a cameraman, a helicopter pilot and the world that he’d never leave his mountain. Days later, it blew…Mystery space machines – part 3Truth is stranger than science fiction

Experts in Nepal raise doubts over US ‘Yeti’ footprint claims

Content from external source:

KATHMANDU (AFP) — Mountaineering and wildlife officials in Nepal said Monday they doubted whether footprints found by a United States team from a science fiction programme were those of a Yeti.

The host and crew from “Destination Truth” spent around a week in the foothills of Mount Everest and returned to the capital Kathmandu last week with claims that they had found footprints belonging to the legendary creature.

“The footprints may be from a Himalayan bear,” Ang Tshering Sherpa, the president of Nepal Mountaineering Association told AFP after looking at pictures of the prints.

“It is believed that Yetis have only four toes but the footprints recorded by the US team have five toes,” said Sherpa, whose father went unsuccessfully looking for the legendary beast in the 1950s.

The Yeti — described as massive half-human, half-ape-like creature — has captured the imagination of explorers and climbers in the Himalayas for generations.

Dozens of costly expeditions have taken place, none of which have proved the existence of the beast.

After seeing what he thought was a fleeting glimpse of a Yeti in 1986, climbing legend Reinhold Messner began investigating the myths and stories that surround it.

In his 1998 book “My Quest for the Yeti,” Messner concludes that it only exists in peoples’ imaginations and the Himalayan black bear was probably behind most sightings.

“Destination Truth” — which investigates the existence of mythical creatures — is being made for an American science fiction channel.

Host Joshua Gates told AFP Saturday that the programme would further investigate the footprints, which were found last week on the bank of the Manju River, 150 kilometres (94 miles) northeast of Kathmandu.

“The footprint is 13 inches (33 centimetres) long and the toes span nine inches (23 centimetres) across,” Gates told AFP at a hotel in Kathmandu.

“This is really an intriguing piece of evidence and we all feel a little bit unable to explain what we saw,” he said.

But Laxmi Manandhar, a spokesman at the Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation, told AFP: “People living in the high Himalayas believe in this strange creature called a Yeti but nobody has actually seen it.

“The footprint castings brought by the US television crew are strange, but there is no supporting evidence to back up the claim that these are footprints of the Yeti.”

How did I know this was coming? Hmmm…

My Paranormal Life – 2007 Top Stories

With the end of the year fast approaching it’s time to look back on what made the past year so special, for me a few things stick out, they may not the most paranormal stories of the year but they were huge items that took the paranormal and mainstream web by storm in 2007.

There are loads more big stories from 2007 but frankly I can’t remember them all, feel free to add to the list with a comment.

The Italian Air Force UFO Video was one of the first big ones to hit early on in 07, it may even be from 2006? with its straight forward no nonsense realistic approach it quickly spread across the web as something spectacular. I don’t know what conclusions were made but to me it’s most probably computer generated, I certainly got a whole lot of traffic because of it.

The Drone photos left people thinking to good to be true, but over the weeks as more photos from seemingly different sources surfaced I think people started to wonder what if? Then came the Isaac documents which led to in depth analysis and discussions and then it all dried up. Well apart from the computer generated videos that seem almost as good as the photos.

ZEITGEIST the Movie has gone from strength to strength, with all the different versions floating about it’s hard to gauge just how many people have seen it, maybe in the tens of millions. The movie dares to ask questions about religion, the terrible tragedy of 911 and how and who may be controlling our world. Presenting information in a way that lets you wonder about the truth yourself and to find your own good ideas.

The Haiti UFO Videos spread like butter on my morning toast, but was quick to be debunked by dedicated people who knew their shit, though through all the hype I don’t feel that came across all to well. Something that didn’t catch on like the main videos was the news that the creator had come forward. Seems like every fifth new UFO video on youtube is the haiti one.


The Jacob’s Bigfoot photos
I didn’t follow all that much, but it was a huge story, my feed reader was full of headlines for this one and still is for that matter. It gained mainstream media attention, most of the time with a smirk. I still can’t make out what it’s doing or where the head is supposed to be, but I did see some overlays recently that made it make more sense.

The Gas Station Ghost is the baby of the lot, spreading and doing its thing. I find it unique, it’s blue and does some strange things.

There are loads more but I probably don’t remember them because I didn’t follow them, Cryptomundo has a great list of The Top Ten Cryptozoology Stories for 2007.

Footprints seen around Mt.Everest stoke Yeti mystery

Content from external source:

“KATHMANDU (Reuters) – A U.S.-based television channel investigating the existence of the legendary Yeti in has found footprints similar to those said to be that of the abominable snowman, the company said on Friday.

A team of nine producers from Destination Truth, armed with infrared cameras, spent a week in the icy Khumbu region where Mount Everest is located and found the footprints on the bank of Manju river at a height of 2,850 metres (9,350 feet).

One of the three footprints discovered on Wednesday is about one foot long, or is of similar size and appearance as shown in sketches of the mystical ape-like creature believed to live in snowy caves, the TV company said.”

MSNBC Video on Jacobs’ Creature

I am not trying to publicize this segment, but rather use it as an example. It saddens me that we have come to expect so little from our news agencies these days. Sure, there are those that claim “any publicity is good publicity”, but sometimes I wish networks wold give the paranormal a chance.

MSNBC’s latest and greatest in the paranormal. *yawn*

Mystery man leaves trail of stone heads

Original Post

Police are on the trail of a shadowy figure who has been dumping giant carved stone heads on village doorsteps at the dead of night.

Each of the foot-high carved stones had a hand-written rhyme taped to it.

Police are on the trail of a shadowy figure who has been dumping giant carved stone heads on village doorsteps at dead of night.

The man has left at least 13 at locations 100 miles apart in Yorkshire at Goathland, near Whitby; Kilburn, near Thirsk; Arthington, outside Leeds, and a village near Selby.

But another delivery of three heads outside a village post office could solve the mystery, police hope. The mystery man was captured on CCTV in Braithwell, near Rotherham.

First reports of the discarded heads emerged last week when Fiona Gould, who runs the Forresters Arms hotel in Kilburn, found one on her patio. Five more were discovered in other parts of the village.

She said: “Some people think it’s a curse – but we have no idea who we might have offended. One woman claims there’s a link to werewolves.”
