1952-Salem, Massachusetts. July 16, 1952 During the peak of the 1952 UFO Flap, Shel Alpert, a USCG seaman on duty in the Coast Guard Weather Office at the Salem Coast Guard Station, saw four brilliant lights in the sky. He called another Guardsman to see the lights, but in those few seconds the lights had become more dim. When they brightened again, he quickly took a single photograph through the window of the office. This photo has been published in many books, newspapers and magazines. {source: ufocasebook}

Rotherwood Mansion

Kingsport, TN – There are places about which legends are borne. For some, stories survive for generations because of personalities so evil, the mere mention of their names are used to terrify children. For others, stories of love lost and tragedy give a place a romantic, if melancholy, air. But for a few, the tales of the tragic and terrible collide, creating a place where the past and present fuse, and where some long to visit, but others dread.

The Mystical Shambala

Some people say that Shambala is hidden in a remote part of the Himalayas. Some call this mysterious kingdom “a house of the immortals” – Gyanganj. It is identified as Shambala, Shangri-La or Siddhashram, but this “wondrous land” has many other names too.

In Tibet, the word for a legendary and enlightened kingdom, “Shambala”, means a “source of fortune”.

Are they Real?

This is a great article on many of the problems and disinformation surrounding the infamous MJ-12 documents. I highly recommend listening to Robert Hastings discuss the subject further on the May 24, 2009 episode of The Paracast.

Disinformation Specialists Richard “Falcon” Doty and Robert “Condor” Collins are still leaving little presents all over the place for the uninformed and unsuspecting. Watch where you step!

Jeez! It’s not like I don’t have other things to do. With the publication of my book UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites, and following my July 18, 2008 appearance on Larry King Live, I have received a number of intriguing and seemingly confirmatory leads from former or retired military personnel regarding the reality of UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites over the last six decades.

Now this haunt in Montego Bay, Jamaica, has just as much lore as it does bad juju. And that bad juju appears to be the real deal. Annie Palmer, a.k.a “The White Witch of Rose Hall,” received her voodoo training at an early age from a Haitian nanny. When Annie was only 10, her parents died mysteriously, leaving her to be raised by her big bad voodoo nanny. Makes you kind of wonder if she was sent to her room without dinner after a spat with mom and pops, and out from under the bed came the voodoo dolls. Who knows, but this seems to be when Annie became the woman who got what she wanted, when she wanted, or there would be hell to pay.

The Axe House

So you want to stay overnight at a haunted house? How about a house where an entire family of 6, and 2 family guests were bludgeoned to death by ax. Well that’s what you’ll get if you stay at the J.B. Moore residence, also known as the Villisca Axe Murder House. On June 10, 1912, in the middle of the night, a lunatic snuck into the home of J.B. Moore in Villisca, Iowa, and brutally murdered the Moore family along with two other children who were there as guests of the Moore children. It appeared that all the victims had been killed in their sleep since all were still in their beds. The weapon, later to be identified as J.B. Moore’s ax was found leaning up against the wall near the bodies of the two house guests. Although the local police had many suspects, the case is still unsolved to this day.

In January, 1734, the ship Elizabeth, Captain Walker, lay at anchor in the harbour of Cadiz, and had on board Mr. Burnel, a surgeon, and a native of Ireknd, who was returning to his native country. Being a very intelligent man, and a most entertaining companion, the Captain conceived a particular friendship for him. One day the conversation turned on apparitions. Burnet seemed to be a firm believer in ghosts; at least he related a great number of extraordinary stories, which might be considered to argue such a belief. Walker, on the contrary, satisfied in his own mind of the impossibility of supernatural appearances, endeavoured to convince his friend of the absurdity and defective evidence of those stories; and declared that nothing on earth could induce him to adopt other notions at the expense of his reason, and convert him to the faith in the visible appearance of the spirits of deceased persons.
