(PHOTO) Police Officer Photographs GHOSTLY FEMALE While on Duty in Chubut, Argentina

A photograph was released that showed the presence of a ghostly being seen at a police checkpoint in the province of Chubut, Argentina.

The thing is that a police officer was outside the truck in full control near the Chubut town of Gaiman when a colleague of his saw something strange and decided to take a photo with his cell phone. He said that at that point on the shoulder, no one was arrested at that time.

Since the weekend, a nighttime photo has been circulating on the networks. Many believe that a ghost can be seen lurking around the cell phones that had their siren lights on, shining from the deep Patagonian darkness. Among this strong glow, in the image taken with the phone, a somewhat blurred figure can be seen, but very likely human in shape, stationed on the side of the road.

The routine operation was carried out on Provincial Route 25, as it does at the beginning of every weekend, in a town that is usually visited by tourists who come from neighboring Puerto Madryn, Trelew, and Rawson, in the middle of the whale, Magellanic penguin and porpoise watching season.

There, in the area known as Chacra 183, the agents of the Gaiman Sub-Police Station, who work under the orders of Commissioner Damián Lacanette, had stopped a vehicle and one of them took the obligatory photograph with his cell phone, to document the procedure that was carried out at the entrance to the well-known town of the Welsh settlers.

Later, when the police officer shared the photo, some of his comrades noticed something strange illuminated by the headlights of the vehicle being searched.

When the image was enlarged, more than one person was convinced that what they saw was nothing other than the ghostly silhouette of a woman or a young woman, wrapped in a grey sheet. One thing everyone agrees on: at first glance, there was no one in that place. Whether it is a light effect or an improbable paranormal phenomenon, of course, is left to the consumer's interpretation.

SLENDER, WINGED HUMANOID Seen Hovering in Alley Near Warren Garden Park, Chicago, IL

As the result of the airing of 'The Mothman Revisited' episode on Season 4 of 'Unsolved Mysteries,' the producers collected reports from the viewers and forwarded the information to us.

The witnesses are being contacted to establish and confirm details of the sightings/encounters. If further information is received, it will be added to the report. We have received worldwide inquiries as well. The incidents specifically reported in the Chicagoland region can be found at the Chicago / Lake Michigan Winged Humanoid Regional Interactive Map

"July 30th, 2024 in Chicago. My boyfriend and I were walking home from our late-night rendezvous to Burger King. It was around 11:30 PM. It was pretty dark outside. We were walking behind the building in the alleyway that goes from Warner Avenue to Belle Plaine Avenue (near Warren Garden Park), just chatting and goofing around when my boyfriend stopped abruptly. It took me about 3 steps to notice he had stopped, so I turned around and looked at him while he whispered to look up the alleyway. I turn back around and my eyes instantly set on a slender, winged humanoid figure levitating roughly 15 feet in the air.

I take a few steps closer to the figure because for a moment I think I could be hallucinating. As I walk towards it, it literally disappears and dissipates into thin air. Mind you, the entire interaction with this creature only lasted 25 seconds tops, from the moment my boyfriend stopped me walking towards it, and it disappeared. We are still so freaked out two days later. We didn’t know what to think until we watched the episode today and realized it was definitely the Mothman that we saw." K

The Night FLYING SAUCERS Buzzed Kittanning, Pennsylvania

The Night FLYING SAUCERS Buzzed Kittanning, Pennsylvania

By Dr. Raymond A. Keller, author of The Real Resident Aliens is available on Amazon.com while supplies last.

Kittanning is a borough in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and also that county’s administrative seat, situated some 36 miles (58 kilometers) northeast of Pittsburgh, along the east bank of the Allegheny River. People from around this area will tell you that not much excitement is generated in Kittanning and its environs, with the exception of Kittanning High School Wildcats football home games on Friday nights. Kittanning’s population has held steady at around 4,000 inhabitants since the mid-1960s.

A Blast from the Past

The biggest event in Kittanning’s long history took place before there was even a United States when Pennsylvania was still a fledging British colony on that far-flung empire’s North American frontier. In 1756, the French-occupied village was destroyed by John Armstrong, Sr., at the Battle of Kittanning during the French and Indian War. Armstrong was a Pennsylvania volunteer helping the British Red Coats to burn down a French garrison in Kittanning and ultimately push the French back across Lake Erie and up into Canada, where their base of operations was. According to legend, it was during this attack that a blast from the explosion of gunpowder stored in Captain Jacobs’ old house that had been procured by the French, was heard all the way over at Fort Duquesne in Pittsburgh.

Sometimes UFOs are camouflaged by the extraterrestrials to make their spaceships look like meteors or “shooting stars,” as is the case with this Kittanning, Pennsylvania, UFO report and this snippet from a film taken by the United States Air Force Maui Island Tracking Facility in Hawaii time-stamped 11:37 p.m. on 16 July 1996. To watch the complete film, see Rumble Viral at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95bB3SRtH6A.

Kittanning Encounters

Moving our time machine up to the night of Wednesday, 12 April in the Year of Our Lord, 1967, we discover that the pleasant centuries-long interlude from the hustle and bustle of the world that had been so cherished by the residents of Kittanning was about to change forever. It all started at about 8:24 p.m. when Gary Stoops, a senior at Kittanning High School living out in the Country Club Estates on Kittanning Road 7, stepped out into his backyard and caught a glimpse of an unusual “shooting star,” or at least a celestial object that he initially took to be one, i.e., perhaps a comet or meteor. As Stoops continued watching the object, however, he noticed that it kept getting larger in size, as if it were slowly approaching his location and not just whizzing across the night sky. And as it got closer to him and larger, other star-like bodies emerged from the darkness, in an X-formation around the initial UFO, and these, too, began to assume a bigger size as they continued in their seeming approach pattern.

In describing the UFO formation to a correspondent for the Kittanning, Pennsylvania, Leader-Times newspaper, Stoops affirmed that “There were four or five of them (UFOs), and they were flying from the northwest in a formation similar to an X. Then they seemed to separate into a formation like a T and then back to the original formation and continued across the sky in a northeasterly direction. In about 10 or 11 seconds, they traveled completely across the sky and disappeared from sight.”

Gary Stoops was attentive to these types of aerial phenomena. He had long been fascinated with astronomy and, having read of many UFO reports from around the world was convinced that if he just kept checking the skies, that he was bound to one day add his name to the roster of millions of others who have seen such unusual objects. Sometimes his mathematics and science teacher at the high school, J. Mitchell Blose, would talk about UFOs and the possibility that some of these objects were crewed interplanetary spaceships, in the course of presenting regular classroom lessons. Blose also sponsored the Kittanning High School UFO Club, which met after school hours to go over recent UFO reports and speculations that abounded about them and/or their extraterrestrial occupants. Naturally, Gary Stoops was elected as the UFO Club’s first president.

The Leader-Times reporter also asked high school teacher Blose if he would share any of his own UFO experiences, and he replied that yes, he had seen some UFOs out on his farm in the Yalesboro area, adding that, “It’s not hard to believe Gary’s sighting, because I have seen UFOs myself, and they travel as fast as Gary indicated. On one of the sightings I had on my farm, a UFO traveled from the eastern horizon to the western horizon in six or seven seconds, indicating that it was moving at approximately 300,000 miles an hour. Since Earth-made satellites travel from west to east, I was convinced that the UFO I had seen was from another planet, since it was traveling in the other direction.”

But Blose’s most significant UFO sighting took place back in May 1966. As he described it, “One evening, in the earlier part of the month, I saw a huge black cloud in a cloudless sky; and inside the cloud was a huge spaceship resting still about one-fourth of a mile from the ground and about a half-mile away. The spaceship measured about 100 to 150 feet across and about 30 feet high. It stayed for a short time, then went straight and leveled off and went into the northwest.” This sighting is much like the one shared by myself, Omnec Onec, and many others at our residence in southwest Germany, just a few miles north of the famous Hohenfels Castle. Omnec explained that it was her “Uncle Odin’s mothership paying us a visit.” See my article, “Magic and Power: Lessons from the High Lamas of Tibet,” published earlier this year on the Phantoms and Monsters website posted on Friday, 27 September 2024 at https://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2024/09/magic-power-lessons-from-high-lamas-of.html for a complete account of the incident.

Blose, being of a technical mindset, opined that, “Whoever operates these spaceships are much superior intellectually to Earth people.” When the Leader-Times interviewer asked Blose why the extraterrestrials were coming to our world, the teacher responded, “I don’t why they are here; but it is my considered opinion that perhaps they are just visiting us out of curiosity.”

There is another Kittanning connection to the paranormal in that the original bridge over the Allegheny River here was torn down and replaced with the Kittanning Citizens Bridge, which was built higher above ground level to avoid flooding; and scenes with the town and bridge were subsequently used in the epic thriller, The Mothman Prophecies (Sony Picture Studios, Culver City, California, 2002) starring Richard Gere and Laura Linney, which was filmed mostly in the Kittanning area.

Aliens and UFOs: An After-Hours Event In-Person

Raymond Andrew Keller, II, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and is a retired professor of History / Literature and lecturer of Greek and Roman Culture and Civilization and Greco-Roman Mythology at West Virginia University in Morgantown, West Virginia. Keller has been involved in active UFO research since 1967 when he was a reporter for the Bedford Times Register in his hometown of Bedford, Ohio, and a research associate with Earl J. Neff, the founder and director of the Cleveland Ufology Project (CUP).

“I’ve always been fascinated by tales of UFO contact especially with the planet Venus,” Keller said. “I spent most of my time in the United States in California, as director of OSIRIS, Outer Space International, and Research and Investigations Society. So, I had the opportunity to meet many of the contactees from the 1950s, Gabriel Green among them. I’ve always wanted to write a book about the contactees and life and varied aspects on the planet Venus.”

Keller has conducted numerous excursions to UFO hot spots throughout the world and has communicated directly with extraterrestrials on many occasions. Venus Rising is his second book; the first being Emergence of the Afro-Zulians in the Transatlantic World, 1722-1811 (Lewiston, NY: Mellen Press, 2013).

(VIDEO) While Searching For Maine Teen's Remains, PSYCHIC Finds Another Missing Body!

A Maine man who has been searching for his missing daughter for nearly 40 years found human remains with the help of a psychic, but they were not those of his daughter.

Dick Moreau said he discovered the remains Saturday in a wooded area of Jay behind what was once a bowling alley.

"(The psychic) had a very strong feeling that there was something up there, but she wasn't sure what it was," Moreau said. "Then in about 10 minutes, she turned around, she came down and said: 'Dick, you've got to get up here now!'"

Maine State Police investigators were called to the scene, and the remains were recovered and taken to the office of the chief medical examiner for identification.

Moreau later learned the remains were those of a male and not those of his daughter, Kim Moreau.

"Yes, it's a disappointment in some ways, but we've got to remember and look at it from our point of view. We're one of the families that has a missing loved one. We will have a family that's going to get closure now," Moreau said. "So it isn't us, but one of these times, it's got to be."

Kim Moreau went missing in May 1986 after leaving her family home on Jewell Street, saying she was going out for an hour. She was never seen again. The site where Dick Moreau found the remains is one street over and up a hill from the family's home.

Around the same time, Harold Simpson, a 28-year-old from Livermore Falls, also went missing. He was last seen fishing with a friend in August 1986, three months after Kim disappeared.

Police have not made any connection between Simpson and the remains that were found.

For Dick Moreau, the search for Kim Moreau continues.

"All we want is to get Kim home, give her a proper burial, and let me take down all these posters so my family and myself will finally get some relief," he said.

Moreau plans to ask police to return to the area with search dogs, hoping that if one set of remains was found, there might be more. He remains determined to find his daughter.

(VIDEO) Mysterious 'PILLAR' Recorded in the Sky Over Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand

A curious pillar, or column, rising from rainbow-hued clouds enchanted the skies above Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand capturing the attention and imaginations of residents alike.

“What’s this pillar? October 21, at 5.35pm on Ubon Khueang Nai Road, I saw the beautiful, colorful sky. Yet, I inadvertently snapped this odd pillar with my camera. It wasn’t visible to the naked eye. What kind of light beam is this? I decided to share it for everyone to see.”

“If this photo is unaltered, we can start to analyze it. The rainbow-tinted clouds are a natural spectacle known as ‘cloud iridescence,’ which happens when sunlight interacts with ice crystals, creating a vibrant display.”

Despite multiple sightings and shared images confirming cloud iridescence, the mysterious black pillar remains unsolved. The anomaly was not visible to the naked eye, only appearing in the camera’s capture

Jessada ventured further, suggesting the black shadow could be a “distrail,” the lesser-known cousin of “contrails”—those jetliner trails often mistaken for missile streaks. A distrail emerges when aircraft heat and turbulence vaporize ice crystals in a cloud, leaving a visible gap.

“If it were a distrail, it should have been visible to the naked eye. The mystery of this pillar persists. Hopefully, it isn’t a trick of photo editing or a camera glitch.”

As experts and the public remain captivated, the mystery continues to send ripples through conversations, leaving all pondering whether it’s a rare natural marvel, an elaborate visual illusion, or something wholly unforeseen.

Another TALL, SKINNY, BROWN-COLORED HUMANOID Reported in Red River Gorge, Kentucky

The witness describes his encounter with an 8-foot-tall, skinny, human-like biped in Kentucky. He was highly disturbed by the incident and wanted to know what it was!

"I’m from Kentucky, and live near the Red River Gorge Geological Area. Lots of wooded areas and people love their guns, including me.

I used to not believe that there was unknown stuff in the woods. I thought, maybe, Bigfoot could be real, but I really doubted it. After this happened, I knew there was something unknown out there.

I had just bought my first AR-15-style rifle (Ruger AR556 for anyone who cares) and bought a 60-round drum magazine for it at Gander Mountain while they were going out of business. Reading up on the drum, I read they were amazing and rarely had any issues at all (this will be important later). A few days after I got it, I finally decided to take it out for a test drive and sight in my gun a little better. Here’s where everything went crazy.

As I said above, Kentucky is super wooded. Three-fourths of the land I lived on was just thick woods. There was a main path for driving our gator and a few small paths our cows had made in the woods. I decided to walk along our creek which had a small path half cleared out by our cows. At the end of the path is a big field our cows graze in and where I sight-in guns when the cows aren’t there. As soon as I crossed the fence to go to the field, I instantly felt like I was being watched, closely. I brushed it off because I’d walked back there a thousand times before and never been bothered by anything.

So, I keep walking and ignore the feeling of being watched, but at the same time, I’m aware of the feeling. I know I feel like I’m being watched, but I wasn’t giving it any noticeable attention. The walk to the field along the creek is very short, maybe two minutes at a slow pace. The further I walked, the more intense the feeling got, like I was getting closer to whatever was watching me. About halfway there, the feeling got so intense, I couldn’t ignore it anymore. The drum magazine I had with me was unloaded, so I stopped and started loading it. I only brought 20 rounds with me because I was just going to sight-in my gun and 20 should’ve been plenty.

So, now I’m stopped, paying extremely close attention to what’s going on around me and loading my magazine. The exact moment I started putting rounds in the drum, I smelled something dead, like it had been dead for a while and rotting in the sun. I started looking around and right behind me was what was left of a possum. It was torn to pieces. It was almost like it was placed there for me to find. The only thing was it looked like it had been dead maybe a day at most, and what I was smelling seemed like it was far more decomposed. This obviously didn’t sit well with me, so I double-timed it on the magazine loading.

I guess I should’ve taken the dead possum as a last chance to turn around.

I decided to keep going. I had never had any problems back there before so I assumed my brain was just being paranoid. I was almost to the field when I saw it. I was at the end of the creek and the feeling of being watched was unbearable. Just as I was near the end of the creek and the edge of the woods, I heard a splash in the water. Being on edge, immediately turned toward the noise, gun ready but no round in the chamber. Walking down the creek away from me was something I will never forget.

At least 8 feet tall, probably taller. Very skinny. Imagine a grown man who weighs 120 pounds. Now stretch him out to be 8 feet tall but his body width stays the same. Very long arms and it walked on two legs. Skin stretched tightly across its body. It made no noise (aside from the splash when it stepped in the creek) while it walked. It also had a very weird walk, almost like a waddle, but taking large steps. But that could’ve been because it was on a muddy creek bank. It was also a light brown color, almost like the color of a deer. That’s all I can remember about it right now, I will edit it later if I remember anything else.

Now I know why I felt like I was being watched. Magazine loaded, bolt ready to send a round in the chamber. Remember what I said about the magazine being extremely reliable? I press the bolt release on the gun to chamber a round just in case this monstrous thing decides to attack (I did not intend on striking first). The round gets stuck somehow and doesn’t even budge out of the magazine. I had never used that magazine before, so it didn’t fail from heavy use. A bolt closing from a gun has enough force to break your finger, so why didn’t this magazine work? My only guess is that thing had something to do with it. The magazine never worked right again and I had to return it to Magpul. Needless to say, I didn’t tell them this happened, I just told them the magazine failed several times. Anyway, back to the thing. Gun jammed on the first round, which is usually the easiest. The thing books it out of there without running or making a noise. I had just long enough exposure to it to get the details I provided about it.

Now, for assumptions. It happened in late May. I still have the emails from Magpul regarding the drum, so I’m using those as references because, after this, I needed something reliable. As for what the creature was, a friend, who knows more about this stuff than I do has decided it could have been a Wendigo.

The reason we think Wendigo is because everything I described matches them nearly perfectly. I had read that they are incredibly thin and tall, have a stench of death that follows them everywhere (explains the smell at the possum), are very fast, can be several colors, light brown included, and they sometimes violently kill other animals to scare humans (again, the possum). The only thing that we couldn’t come up with is its behavior. Why am I still alive? Wendigos are supposed to be incredibly aggressive. Aside from watching me, it did nothing. Didn’t try to attack or confront me, it ran from me like it was scared or trying to draw me where it wanted me.

This being said I have never had another encounter with it. I have gone to the same field taking the same path expecting to be watched and have not gotten that feeling of being watched as strongly as that day. Something was out there and you can’t convince me otherwise. I’ve tried to trick myself into thinking I’m being watched out there and it still had no comparison between that day.

If anyone else here in the comments may have any questions you’d like me to answer, please ask. I just need to talk about it to help get it off my chest. Also, if anyone has any information on what I might have seen or a better guess. I need to know what is in my woods!" J

NOTE: There have been several similar sightings reported in the Red River Gorge of Kentucky for many years. One of those accounts can be found at Red River Gorge, Kentucky: GLIMMER MAN, BIZARRE HUMANOID, & PRIMAL SCREAMS! Are these crawler humanoids, or something different? Lon

(PHOTO) LARGE BIGFOOT TREE STRUCTURE Encountered in Eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains

The witness is walking their 2 dogs on a trail in the Eastern Sierra Nevadas. They encounter a large tree structure that indicates that a Bigfoot may be in the area.

"I live near the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains. I hike up there pretty much from May to October. A few years ago, I decided to hike this pretty strenuous trail that leads to a huge rock slide. I park and notice I’m the only person there. I have two dogs. Get them out and start up the trail.

About a mile in, I come to this clearing that has a huge teepee-like structure in it. The trees are all woven together. I put down my walking stick and stopped to take pictures. Seemed weird but cool. In the last picture, you can see that there’s a sapling that is still alive that is bent nearly fully backward that’s woven in there.

I moved up the trail after the pictures and as soon as I walked past the tree structure, I immediately felt like I was being watched and the woods went silent. It was so weird. No bugs, no birds, no small animal noises. Dead silent.

I hike by myself ALL THE TIME. I don’t get creeped out or really too scared. I’ve seen bears and I’m sure there are cougars out there. I keep going up and the feeling is getting way more intense. And my dogs are starting to act weird. These are experienced trail dogs. They don’t really get weird like that, staying super close to me, and not making a lot of noise.

I realize that I left my walking stick down by the tree structure. Oh well, I don’t want to go back down to get it and then back up. I got a 1/4 mike or so past the tree thing and the feeling of being watched was unbearable.

I’m thinking, OK rationally, it’s probably a big cat. So I head back down. The rational part of my brain told me to slow down. My flight response? Nope! Full speed down a 30-40 degree slope. I get down to the tree structure and meadow and I look down and my walking stick is gone. Like it’s nowhere to be seen. It was pretty distinct because it was made of Aspen and I’d picked it up somewhere else. There are no aspen in this part of the forest.

I’m terrified. I kept running. I felt like I was being chased but I never saw anything. Never heard anything either. Yes, it could have been a big cat, but why did it only start after I passed the tree structure AND how did my stick go missing?

I was nearly to the parking lot before the feeling of being watched/chased left me.

I will never ever go back there. Still thinking about it gives me the creeps." L

(PHOTO) MYSTERIOUS CREATURE Captured on Bristol Zoo Project Camera

Keepers at the Bristol Zoo Project have been left baffled by images of a mysterious creature caught on a night vision camera. The zoo’s conservation team made the discovery when looking through images from camera traps.

After reviewing the images, the experts say the creature appears to have four legs and is like nothing they have spotted before. There had been reports over the last few weeks of something unusual lurking between the trees, turning the heads of not just the staff, but also the animals that live there.

Rosie Sims, public engagement manager at Bristol Zoo Project, said: “The sighting of this mythical-like creature is a mystery to us here at Bristol Zoo Project and has been a great inspiration for the Halloween trail this year. Scotland has the Loch Ness monster and Cornwall has the Beast of Bodmin Moor – have we discovered a similar mythical here in Bristol perhaps?
