Zapping the Moon
Every month the Moon passes through the magnetic field of the Earth and becomes charged with static electricity. A new model suggests that this charging may increase after the year 2012, which could have implications for human lunar missions that are currently being planned for around 2020...
UFOs: The musical
ART's new production introduces men in black, Bigfoot and monster rabbits.
When Jahnna Beecham was growing up, she was all too familiar with things that go bump in the night. "I lived in a farmhouse that was 150 years old, and it was haunted," she says. "We saw things and heard things”...
Ghostly charity hunt
Ghosts and ghouls at The White Hart Pub in Pulborough will help to raise cash for Horsham based wildlife charity Born Free. The event was organised by mediums Shane and Andrew Gadd and ghost hunter Heddwen Ede. The local ghost busters will hunt in and around the grounds of the 14th century building for spirits believed to have roamed the pub for several years...
U.K’s first crop circle of 2007
This circle glyph was discovered from the air around noon on April 15th. It sits alongside Oliver’s Castle near Devizes, Wiltshire and can be viewed from the Castle embankment. The glyph is in a field of flowering oil-seed rape. Crop is standing at about four feet high. The pattern spans across 333ft of the field with the outer ring of the main circle measuring 33ft width.
Seven arcs, each approximately 5ft wide cut through the central body of the circle...
Spirits specialty of house
When Rick Glencross and Jenny Murphy tell you they serve fine food and spirits at the Fountain House, their restaurant on Main Street in Winterport, they bring a whole new meaning to the word spirits. The restaurant is housed in an old funeral home, which is creepy in its own right. It’s also one of the oldest houses in Winterport, dating back to the mid-1800s. Capt. John Atwood, a seaman, lived there for many years with his family before James Foley opened a prominent funeral home there in the 1920s...
A lattice of coincidence: metaphysics and the paranormal
Group of ghost hunters scours for signs
A sprawl of microphones, computers, cameras and coils of black cable litter a room at the Gold Rush-era Fallon Hotel. The tableau looks like a low-budget film set. It's not. It's a ghost hunt. The Fallon, and its counterpart down the street, the City Hotel, are the sites of an overnight stakeout by the San Joaquin Valley Paranormal Investigators, a group of supernatural phenomena hunters whose style is more whiz-bang than Ouija...
Dogs smell cancer in patients' breath, study shows
Dogs can detect if someone has cancer just by sniffing the person's breath, a new study shows. Ordinary household dogs with only a few weeks of basic "puppy training" learned to accurately distinguish between breath samples of lung- and breast-cancer patients and healthy subjects...
Hallucination
Anthony North: People don’t like that word. It suggests seeing things that aren’t there. It is incorrectly associated with madness. Yet I’m convinced it can hold the key to much of the paranormal...
Are mobile phones wiping out our bees?
Scientists claim radiation from handsets are to blame for mysterious 'colony collapse' of bees. It seems like the plot of a particularly far-fetched horror film. But some scientists suggest that our love of the mobile phone could cause massive food shortages, as the world's harvests fail...
Bigfoot sighting leads to litigation
When Matt Moneymaker, owner of BFRO, had a Bigfoot sighting while on expedition in Kentucky, he probably never thought it would end up in court. The BFRO Bigfoot video footage, which was sold to Adrian Erickson of Newgrowth Capital Corp. for $20,000, was intended to become a part of a motion picture which is in production at this time...
Local residents claim paranormal sightings
Spirits, good and bad, have a role in superstition. Two local women, with no claims to superstitious beliefs, freely admit to seeing playful spirits. Ashleigh Parrish, a college sophomore, spent six years living in a home at 903 W. Grand River Ave. in downtown Howell. From day one, she told her parents, "I see a girl.'' Time passed for the family, including a dog and two cats (one named Max,) and she kept saying, "I see a girl”...
New rash of Mothman-linked deaths
Details are just beginning to trickle in of a new wave of deaths and near-misses tied to the Mothman researchers, museum staff and festival people in Point Pleasant, West Virginia...
