Hunter has Angelic Encounter

Normally you hear stories of wooded areas and..... well Sasquatch encounters. Well..
 
 
Recently a Michigan hunter captured something strange on camera during a hunting trip. While reviewing photos from his game camera, he noticed an image of an angelic figure in a wooded area.
 
 
 
The photo instantly went viral on Facebook this month.
 
In the image, an angelic figure can be seen hovering over a field near a wooded area.
 
According to the hunter an unnamed image expert with over 25 years of experience analyzed the photo and said that the image was authentic and he couldn't debunk it.
 
While others looking at the image think that it is completely fake.
 
While the head appears to be bowed and the wings spread wide, with a closer look you can see what appears to be a face on the angels left arm. No mention of this face was made in the original posting online.
 
So what is this misty looking figure? Double Exposure? Fog? Hoax? or.... an Angel?
 
Chime in, we'd like to hear your thoughts on this truly odd encounter.

Ghost Sex in Cars, Oh My!!

 
One does not usually associate ghosts with being sexually active or being troubled by desires of the flesh but throw a Succubus and Incubus into equation and you have ghosts seducing passing motorists on busy roads in the UK.

 
Well that's the claim anyways, almost makes you want to fuel up, and go for a ride doesn't it?

There is a highway in Swansea, Wales, that has been investigated numerous times due to incidents involving highly-sexed ghosts and unwitting drivers.
 
A Pembrokeshire man was seduced by a visitor from beyond the grave posing as a beautiful woman hitchhiking on the A40. This man genuinely believed he was seduced by a paranormal entity.  After being on a date that hadn’t gone as planned. He saw a beautiful woman on the side of the road and he picked her up.
 
He started to smell something strange, at first he thought it was like a cigarette smell. He was overcome with a choking sensation, and thought he was going to die.
He pushed her back with all his strength and there was not a pretty girl on him any longer but some haggard, disgusting old woman with some kind of awful skin condition. Then she just simply vanished.
 
So what's your take on this.  There are tons of reports in this area, and other locations around the world with similar stories.
 
Road trip anyone?

A Stonehenge Structure in a Lake? Druids can swim?

 
 
Recent archaeological studies have yielded shocking discoveries.  It seems Druids could hold their breath for long periods of time,  and construct huge stone structures underwater. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ok not quiet, however what has been unearthed shows that Lake Michigan may have a Stonehenge type structure on its floor alongside a boulder with a prehistoric carving of a mastodon.
 

 
 
 
The discovery took place when Mark Holley, a professor of underwater archaeology at Northwestern Michigan University College and his colleague Brian Abbott voyaged across the lake in a ship furnished with sonar equipment with the intent to examine old shipwrecks.
 
 
 
 
 
Why is it the guys with the grants get all the cool toys?
 
While scanning Grand Traverse Bay they observed unique rock formations resembling Stonehenge, and upon further inspection, rocks with strange engravings, one which Holley believes to be a Mastodon.
 
Experts shown pictures of the boulder holding the mastodon markings have asked for more evidence before confirming that the markings are indeed ancient petroglyphs.
 
The formation, if authenticated, wouldn’t be the first. Stone circles and other petroglyph sites are located in the Great Lakes area.

Family of Bigfoot Reported in Snow, Arkansas

Well this caught my attention!  This is literally in the back yard of ParaPalooza country... ok ok its like 30 minutes away.  But one I can personally follow up on and get some truth from.  As most reports are just HYPE.  I ........am not getting my hopes up.

Because well.......its a WET County now days, and there are some locals that.... to be politically correct........ Just aren't right in the head.  But I do my research with an open mind.  And I expect nothing but a good time outdoors, its why I love this area.  Nature is Peaceful and much needed.

The report is on Bigfoot Research Organization BFRO.Net is as follows.

This one is an unbelievable report. Seeing one Bigfoot is rare enough, but to see 3 at the same time is quite remarkable. While driving near the town Snow Arkansas, one man reportedly spotted a "family unit":

Night, dark clear, road traffic was light. I was traveling west bound, headlight on bright. Three creatures, two were adults and a young one. I saw them traveling from left to right, the adults were near the yellow line in the hwy, the smaller one was about three steps behind the large ones. The two large one went right over the fence to my left with very little extra effort, like a large high stride. the smaller one, use the right hand on the fence post and jumped the fence. I was about 5 car lengths away from the smaller one.

According to the BFRO person, this former military person was very descriptive about the creatures:

Spoke with witness twice via phone. Former military and quite precise in recollection. It was a matter of fact recounting of events. Everyone knows they are around these parts, just not spoken about in public. His feeling was that he saw a family unit. Male, female, and juvenile. The male, and lead creature, was a dirty brown color. The second or "female, less masculine" one was in the middle, and juvenile was last. Male was estimated to be no less than 6.5-7 ft. tall. Very bulky and super wide at shoulders. The second one was just smaller overall and he just felt it was "feminine" due to lack of bulk and overall size difference. Juvenile seemed to be 4-5 ft tall. They were "walking with purpose" as though they had a set destination in mind. They did not look back at him, nor hurry their gait just because he was there. The entire event was between 5-8 seconds. It was a 2 lane highway, at least 20 feet from shoulder to shoulder, and the male crossed the road easily in 4-5 steps. He went back and stepped it off at a later time and he had trouble coming close to that stride without maybe pulling a muscle. I have no reason to doubt this witness.

If someone will contact me from BFRO I can actually go to the exact spot!  .......so ahhh someone point this snoop in the right direction please.

Drone captures image of Bigfoot in California : Sasquatch Sunday


Possible new, indisputable proof that Bigfoot exists, and has been spending most of his time in northern California, namely the Roseville area.

Recently a Videographer who specializes in aerial videography using a quadcopter captured something unusual and has sent his video to be analyzed. A quadcopter is a drone that is lifted and propelled by 4 rotors and equipped with a HD video camera.

The videographer says he was doing a pre-shoot to get some ideas about what they would shoot when the actual shoot day came. When he returned home and reviewed the footage, he noticed what appears to be a large man-like figure in one of the shots. He says he doesn't know if it's a bigfoot or a sasquatch, but he was confused and has sent it in to a paranormal research group for further analysis.

The footage was taken near Roseville, California. At the end of the video the "expert" says he believes this could be bigfoot. Or a man wearing black pants and a black hoodie.

Hmmmmm...... that's a big difference there.  Here's the video for your eyes to evaluate.

Satanic Possession in Connecticut


A man in Connecticut claimed to be possessed by Satan no less,  I mean why claim a lower level demon, just reach for the top dog.


His claims come due to him killing and dismembering his 90-year-old father and has been sentenced to 60 years in prison.





Reports are that 49-year-old Jan Gawlik of New Britain repeated the claim during his sentencing Friday and said he was high on cocaine when he killed his father, Jozef, in October 2011.

He was convicted of murder in November.

Prosecutors say Gawlik used a sword, knife, meat clever and potato masher in an attack on his father, who was frail and suffered heart problems and cancer.

Gawlik now says he has given his life to God and wants to become a Catholic priest.

Sure he does......... amazing how religion comes to those confined to jail cells!

This day in History: Columbus mistakes Manatees for Mermaids





A History Lesson on Sailors spending way to much time at sea it would seem. January 8th 1493,  Italian explorer Columbus sailing near the Dominican Republic sees three "Mermaids"








Six months earlier, Columbus (1451-1506) set off from Spain across the Atlantic Ocean with the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria, hoping to find a western trade route to Asia. Instead, his voyage, the first of four he would make, led him to the New World.



Mermaids, mythical half-female, half-fish creatures, have existed in seafaring cultures at least since the time of the ancient Greeks. Typically depicted as having a woman's head and torso, a fishtail instead of legs and holding a mirror and comb, mermaids live in the ocean and, according to some legends, can take on a human shape and marry mortal men. Mermaids are closely linked to sirens, another folkloric figure, part-woman, part-bird, who live on islands and sing seductive songs to lure sailors to their deaths.


However Columbus' Sighting wasn't a Mermaid.  Seems most sightings by sailors, when they weren't made up, were most likely manatees, dugongs or Steller's sea cows (which became extinct by the 1760s due to over-hunting). That or sailors spending so much time at sea with a bunch of other men, they thought anything would look good at this point in time!

Manatees are slow-moving aquatic mammals with human-like eyes, bulbous faces and paddle-like tails. It is likely that manatees evolved from an ancestor they share with the elephant. The three species of manatee (West Indian, West African and Amazonian) and one species of dugong belong to the Sirenia order.

As adults, they're typically 10 to 12 feet long and weigh 800 to 1,200 pounds. They're plant-eaters, have a slow metabolism and can only survive in warm water.

Manatees live an average of 50 to 60 years in the wild and have no natural predators. However, they are an endangered species. In the U.S., the majority of manatees are found in, where scores of them die or are injured each year due to collisions with boats.






So the next time your out at sea for an extended trip, or on a drunken stupor at say, oh.... Spring Break, remember when you see this lovely creature.  








Your actually seeing one of these.  Despite what the Discovery Channel's recent show on Mermaids would have you believe.... that wasn't documentary people!

Psychic's Car Smashed by Boyfriend after Unusual Prediction.


A man has been accused of smashing up his psychic girlfriend's car after she predicted he would fantasise about his dead granny using a sex toy on him.

Well.....she should have seen this coming!

Casey Molter took exception to his mystic partner's latest premonition, detailed in a police report.


She predicted that his late grandmother would appear to him in a dream and "commit an unusual sex act to him involving an adult erotic device".

Police say that the 28-year-old "could not get the image out of his head and he snapped," smashing up her 1997 Nissan Altima in an alleged retribution.

Officers rushed to a house in Vero Beach, Florida, in November last year, when alerted to the alleged incident.

The details have only recently emerged in a police report.

He was arrested on a criminal mischief charge.

He will appear in court later this month.

Casey Molter

Giant Colon Engulfs People as they Sleep in Belgium.





Ok so people are not exactly being attacked by a Giant Colon, or any other body part as they are sleeping.  However............this fits into our ODD AS HELL category!  Staying here is a real Gas..



Resting in the Verbeke Foundation Art Park near Antwerp, Belgium, the cozy anatomical model was the work of Dutch designer Joep van Lieshout. The slim, curved interior of the furnished anus features a double bed, windows, heating, and of course, working plumbing. The exterior of the room is sculpted with bulging veins and a giant puckered sphincter (non-functional) on one end, and painted the visceral red of exposed organs. The colossal muscle tube almost seems out of place in the idyllic art park, near a placid pond, yet it is composed of soft, natural angles, no matter how gross.


Despite the stomach-churning imagery, visitors still flock to the site to spend the night in the big colon which is also surrounded by such wondrous sites as black swans and an unobstructed view of the night sky. Hotel Casanus is somewhere between theme bed and breakfast and gross-out stunt tourism, but whatever the draw, guests can't help butt visit.

Well Arizona's Bigfoot........is a Shrub!

Seems the boys at Arizona's Department of Transportation got to have a bit of fun with their Facebook post.  Originally posting Apes were in the photo, and asking for everyone's input.
 
But if you look here on a more recent photo of the same area... It would appear its not quite a Sasquatch.  But that of a grouping of ...................Shrubs.

 
Touche' Arizona DOT Touche'
 
Guess I better call my travel agent and cancel my trip!
