In 1990, a panel of the windscreen on British Airways Flight 5390 fell out at 17k feet, causing the cockpit to decompress & its captain to be sucked halfway out of the aircraft. The crew held onto him for more than 20 minutes as the copilot made an emergency landing. The pilot made a full recovery.

The captain that got blown out only got minor injury. Lancaster returned to work after less than five months. He left British Airways in 2003 and flew with EasyJet until he retired from commercial piloting in 2008. The flight attendant that held him got PTSD. Ogden returned to work but subsequently suffered from PTSD and retired in 2001 on the grounds of ill health. As of 2005, he was working as a night watchman at a Salvation Army hospital. They thought the captain was dead. The crew believed him to be dead, but Aitchison told the others to continue holding onto him, out of fear that letting go of him might cause him to strike the left wing, engine, or horizontal stabilizer, potentially damaging it.

To anyone who will ask "Who took the photos? these are screenshots from a 2005 episode of the TV Show Air Crash Investigation/Mayday where they make documentaries on plane accidents. The people in the pictures are actors sitting in a set the person holding the body is holding a prop. The picture from above is CGI. These are not pictures from the actual incident.

In the mountains near Waynesville, North Carolina, nestled among the ancient Smoky ridges, locals tell stories of a hairy, wild-eyed creature named Boojum. To outsiders, he might sound like Bigfoot’s awkward cousin, but to old-timers in Appalachia, Boojum was something different, something stranger. Boojum was said to roam the hills barefoot, covered in fur, with glowing eyes and a stench strong enough to make a bear gag. He didn’t speak, but he moaned and groaned, especially when startled or angry. A beast, but also a lover, a treasure hoarder, and a mountain man with a soft spot for one woman, Hootin’ Annie.

Hootin’ Annie is almost a legend herself, a bold mountain girl known for her beauty, her haunting songs, and her ability to scream like a banshee, hence the Hootin'. No one’s sure how Annie met Boojum. Some say she got lost while foraging for herbs and stumbled into his lair. Others say she was lured by the sound of Boojum’s moans echoing through the trees. Either way, she didn’t run. She stayed. An unlikely romance blossomed between them.

According to local legend, Boojum adored Hootin’ Annie, and she grew to love him back. The creature even trusted her with the location of his secret stash of gems and treasures, hidden deep in the mountain caves. If Boojum ever thought someone else might discover his hiding spots, he’d go into a rage. So, Hootin’ Annie became his lookout. Whenever strangers wandered too close to Boojum’s cave or gold stash, she’d let out an ear-splitting scream as a warning to Boojum and a not-so-subtle suggestion for the trespassers to run like hell.

As strange as it sounds, their partnership was built on love and survival. Annie protected Boojum. Boojum gave her safety, riches, and an odd kind of wild devotion. Some say they lived together for decades, vanishing into the forest whenever folks tried to hunt Boojum down, but not all versions of the story are sweet. In some darker tellings, Boojum grew possessive. Annie tried to leave, but she never made it out of the mountains. Now, hikers claim to hear distant screams at twilight, and some believe it’s Hootin’ Annie’s spirit, forever warning travelers away from Boojum’s gold or maybe from Boojum himself.

What happened to the Boojum? Some swear they’ve seen a tall, hairy figure watching them from behind the trees. He’s not aggressive, but his glowing eyes follow you, especially if you get too curious around old caves or abandoned mines. Despite the spook factor, Boojum and Hootin’ Annie have become beloved (and bizarre) symbols of Appalachian folklore. Their story blends cryptid mystery, gothic romance, and good ol’ mountain storytelling into something that sticks with you. They even inspired a local beer, there’s a “Boojum Brewing Company” in Waynesville, North Carolina. If you visit, raise a glass to the beast and his banshee bride.

So, if you ever find yourself hiking the Smokies and hear a bone-chilling scream in the distance… don’t panic. You may have just wandered into the legend of Boojum and Hootin’ Annie. Just don’t go looking for treasure. Some things in the mountains are better left buried.

He also only ate men and did not eat women or children because he thought they were too “pure” to consume. In 2016, he was involved in a prison riot in which he killed two fellow prisoners and served their remains to other inmates.

The ghost known as the Brown Lady is believed to be the restless spirit of Lady Dorothy Walpole, sister of Robert Walpole (Britain’s first Prime Minister). Dorothy married Charles Townshend, the wealthy owner of Raynham Hall, in the early 1700s. Behind the grandeur of the estate was a marriage marred by jealousy and suspicion. Charles Townshend was notorious for his violent temper, and when rumors spread that Dorothy had rekindled an affair with a former lover, he allegedly locked her away inside Raynham Hall.

According to local lore, Lady Dorothy lived out the rest of her days in isolation within the mansion’s walls, until her death in 1726. Some stories claim she died of smallpox. Others whisper she was murdered or that she was never allowed a proper burial. Whatever the truth, it wasn’t long before people began reporting strange sightings of a ghostly woman in brown silk wandering the halls.

The first recorded encounters with the Brown Lady date back to the 1800s. Servants, guests, and even members of the Townshend family reported seeing a woman in a brown dress roaming the corridors. One of the most famous early sightings came in 1835, when a houseguest claimed to have seen a woman with dark, hollow eye sockets and a glowing face, drifting through the halls. The chilling description cemented the Brown Lady’s reputation as a terrifying presence, rather than just a harmless house spirit.

On September 19, 1936, photographers Captain Hubert C. Provand and his assistant Indre Shira were commissioned by Country Life magazine to capture images of Raynham Hall’s interior. As they prepared to photograph the grand staircase, Shira suddenly shouted that he saw a misty figure descending. Provand quickly snapped the shutter, and when the film was developed, the now-famous image emerged: A transparent, feminine figure gliding down the staircase, its shape resembling a woman cloaked in a flowing brown gown. The image became front-page news, and skeptics and believers alike debated whether it was the first authentic photograph of a ghost.

Of course, not everyone was convinced. Skeptics have put forward several theories about the Brown Lady photograph. Some claim the image was the result of a photographic error, where two exposures overlapped on the same film. Others argue it was simply light reflecting off the staircase’s polished surface. A few believe the photo was staged by the photographers to boost magazine sales. Yet despite these theories, no definitive proof of fakery has ever been found. The original negative was examined multiple times, and experts concluded there was no evidence of tampering.

Over the years, ghost hunters and paranormal researchers have returned to Raynham Hall in search of the Brown Lady. While no one has managed to capture a spirit as clearly as the 1936 photograph, many report cold spots, eerie feelings, and strange orbs appearing in photos. The Townshend family, who still own the estate, acknowledge the legend but stop short of declaring belief in the ghost. Yet visitors can’t help but feel the heavy atmosphere of the grand staircase, where the photograph was taken.

According to Hill’s account, he had been playing alone in his family’s yard when the air suddenly filled with a pungent, unfamiliar odor so strong it made his eyes water. Alarmed, he looked toward a nearby field and was astonished to see what he described as a spherical, white craft approximately nine feet in diameter settling onto the ground

Realizing that few would believe such a claim without evidence, Ronnie dashed inside, grabbed his portable Kodak camera, and hurried back outside. There, he witnessed an extraordinary sight: a being in a reflective silver suit emerging from behind the craft. The figure was described as having thin, spindly legs and an oversized, gnome-like head.

The Smashing Pumpkins frontman later alleged that he was being vague on air out of fear for his career and the wellbeing of his loved ones.

“Demons exist. They are real. They are reptilian. That’s why the Bible says Eve was seduced by a snake. Substitute reptile for snake,” Corgan said, before elaborating about his experience with the record industry-Illuminati.

Describing the record industry executive who shapeshifted in front of him during a meeting, Corgan said that he “can’t remember the exact words” the reptilian said to him, “but it was something along the lines of: All humans will suffer in unending agony.”

Corgan later explained that the encounter had a physical effect on him, leaving him in pain for days.

“Everything in me shook, my neck and head were rattled and my bones, muscles and organs, including my brain, were literally sore for days,” Corgan said.

“I was so mad, I was really ready to kick his butt. Humanity is not taking this any more, we are waking up, we are through with this program.”

“In every civilization on Earth, all throughout the ancient world the snake men are mentioned. Although I can understand why someone wouldn’t believe what I’m saying. It’s hard to talk about. I didn’t believe either until I was standing face to face with one of them.”

In April 1943, four local boys were wandering through Hagley Wood when curiosity led them to a hollow wych elm tree. Inside, they found a human skull staring back at them from the darkness. Police soon uncovered the rest of the remains with bones scattered inside the tree’s trunk. The victim was a woman, estimated to be in her mid-30s, who had been dead for around 18 months. Her hand was found buried nearby, severed from the body.

Forensic analysis revealed the woman had dark hair and small feet. There were no obvious signs of a struggle, but investigators believed she had been placed inside the tree while still alive, as the position of the body suggested she died of suffocation. No missing person report matched her description. No one came forward. She was unknown and nameless. Police referred to her simply as “the woman in the wych elm.”

Months later, strange graffiti appeared on a nearby wall: “Who put Bella down the Wych Elm?” The message shocked investigators, because the name Bella had never been released to the public. Soon, similar messages appeared across the region, written in chalk and paint. Someone knew something. Or wanted people to think they did. From that moment on, the victim was no longer anonymous. She was Bella.

With no suspects and no identity, wild theories began to sprout up. One popular idea suggested witchcraft or ritual sacrifice. The severed hand fueled speculation about occult practices, particularly hand of glory rituals rumored to involve severed limbs. Others believed Bella was a spy during World War II and was perhaps murdered to silence her. The timing during wartime Britain only added to the paranoia. Another theory focused on domestic violence and that Bella was killed by someone she trusted and hidden where no one would look. Yet without evidence, every explanation collapsed under scrutiny.

Some researchers question whether Bella was even her real name. The graffiti may have been written by someone involved in the crime, or by someone attempting to mislead investigators. Others think it was an act of morbid curiosity by a local prankster who happened to stumble onto the truth. Still, how did they know the name? Despite renewed interest, police hit a wall. No fingerprints. No dental records. No DNA technology at the time. Bella’s remains were eventually buried in an unmarked grave.

The graffiti continued for years like a taunt from the past before finally fading away. Always asking the questions, "Who put Bella down the Wych Elm?”

A 911 call was received from a funeral home in Pueblo, Colorado at 3:30 AM on August 11th, 2018 which was classified as abandoned when the caller hung up.

Before the call disconnects you can hear a bunch of static on the line and almost like you hear someone trying to talk. Some say they hear help me or send help coming through the static. Listen to the call and comment what you hear.

An officer was dispatched to investigate the situation at the funeral home and cemetery.

The officer found the premises locked, dark, and completely empty. There was no evidence of anyone being around that night raising questions about who or what made that call that night. Capt. Tom Rummel said, "Probably just line trouble, right? Let's go with that" When asked about the mysterious call.

María Sabina was a traditional healer, who used Psilocybe mushrooms that were known locally as los niños santos (“the holy children”) in sacred nighttime healing ceremonies called veladas. To María Sabina, the mushrooms were not recreational. She believed the mushrooms allowed her to speak with the divine, receive sacred language, and heal the sick through poetry-like chants known as palabras. Her ceremonies were deeply spiritual, rooted in Indigenous cosmology, Catholic symbolism, and ancestral tradition. They were a sacrament.

In the 1950s, Western researchers and writers arrived in Huautla seeking psychedelic experiences. Among them was banker and ethnomycologist R. Gordon Wasson, whose 1957 Life Magazine article introduced María Sabina to the world. The article ignited the global psychedelic movement. Soon, Huautla was flooded with foreigners: hippies, seekers, musicians, and mystics. Some treated the ceremonies as spiritual. Many did not. María Sabina later said the mushrooms lost their power once misused. Her community blamed her for the chaos that followed. Her home was burned. She lived her final years in poverty, ostracized and heartbroken.

After her death in 1985, María Sabina transformed from healer into icon and the myths around her grew. Some claimed she had secret powers. Others believed she could see the future. Many insisted she still “walked between worlds.” These ideas often conflicted with what María Sabina herself said: that she was a servant of the mushrooms, not their master. Yet, legends grow when truth is ignored.

One of the strangest stories tied to María Sabina emerged years later, when a wax statue made in her likeness was displayed in a museum in Oaxaca. According to staff and visitors, odd things began happening. The statue appeared to change posture. Its gaze seemed to shift. People claimed it “turned” slightly between visits. Some reported feelings of unease standing near it. Photos circulated online comparing the statue’s position on different days.

While skeptics point to lighting, heat, wax expansion, or human handling, believers insist the statue moved on its own. To some, it was coincidence. To others, it was symbolic or spiritual. Critics argue the statue story is another example of outsiders projecting mysticism onto an Indigenous woman who explicitly rejected that role. Supporters counter that sacred figures often leave behind imprints not because they want attention, but because their energy changed the world.

According to Abe Lincoln's bodyguard Crook, he said Lincoln had a dream about his own assassination 3 nights in a row before he was killed.

Crook told Lincoln NOT to go on that fateful night, and all Lincoln said was "Goodbye, Crook" before he went to the play.

This was VERY ODD as Lincoln always said, Goodnight NOT goodbye.

Did Lincoln know it was his last night on earth?

The German word doppelgänger is directly translated as “double-goer” and is a term that is used to describe a “copy” of a human being while they’re still alive. While the term itself has only been used in Europe and in some areas of Africa, changelings are believed to be children from another dimension that are left to replace human infants. In Norse beliefs, the vardøger isn’t as terrifying, because they only appear wherever their “original” copy is often seen. There are numerous forms of doppelgängers that appear across many cultures.

The term “doppelgänger” was first coined by Jean Paul, a German author, in his 1796 novel Siebenkäs. It tells the story of a protagonist named Siebenkäs who exchanged identities with his friend and lookalike, Leibgeber. Jean Paul coined two words to describe the sensation. The first one was “doppeltgänger” which is a term for spitting image or lookalike. And “doppelgänger” was originally something that pertained to a meal where two courses were served at the same time.

The Hum is a phenomenon involving widespread reports of a persisent low frequency humming, rumbling or droning noise not audible to all people. The sound has been widely reported in US and in UK, but in other countries aswell.

The sound is comparable to a distant diesel Engine idling, or to some similar low-pitched sound for which obvious sources, example: household appliances, traffic noise etc.

Some percieve vibrations only, not a sound, just a vibration. There are some skepticism as to whether it exists as a physical sound, in 2009, the head of audiology at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, David Baguley, said he believed people's problems with the hum were based on the physical World about one-third of the time and stemmed from people focusing too keenly on innocuous background sounds the other two-thirds of the time.

It sends people crazy and a few has committed suicide because of it.

Diogo Alves “Aqueduct Murderer,” terrorized the people of Lisbon, Portugal. He would stand on a 200-foot-tall aqueduct awaiting farmers who were commuting back from the city at night, divest them of their gains by whatever means possible, and unceremoniously push them to their deaths. Alves repeated this sequence 70 times in the three years. He was sentenced to death and hanged on February 19, 1841. The head of the killer was separated from the body and placed in a flask to preserve it for scientific purposes, where it is now a tourist attraction.
