Popular Mandela Effects

Image
What if parallel universes exist? What if the evidence of parallel universes exists in our current 3 dimensional universe? Popular as of few months back, Mandela Effect theory suggests exactly that; parallel universes do exist and, unlike before, this time the theory's supporters are not just talking; instead, they are bringing in evidence. Also, it would not be 2016. without mentioning Mandela Effect.  A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MANDELA EFFECT As mentioned, the Mandela Effect is a theory of parallel universes. It is based on false memories about past events that are remembered by larger group. Simply, the Mandela Effect is when a lot of people believe that something had happened when, in reality, it never happened or it happened completely different. Supporters of the theory believe that the reason for these false memories is due to the existence of multiple parallel universes. They suggest that at some point in the past, the two or more universes have collided, therefore creatin...

Night of Strange Dreams

There was a night at a beginning of December that resulted in several strange dreams. Honestly, I'm not quite sure about the exact date, but let's say it was between the 4th and 7th of December. One of these three nights, three different people reported unusual dreams. We are not talking about nothing spectacular here, just some strange coincidences. If you are interested, keep reading! THE TRIP A friend of mine, let's call her Emma, dreamed that she was supposed to travel to England. However, in a dream, she had lost her plane ticket which resulted in her not being able to travel to England. The next day, when Emma woke up, she received peculiar message from one of her friends, let's call her Anna. Interestingly, her friend Anna messaged her about her own dream which was strangely related to Emma's dream. Anna dreamed that she went to visit Emma in, no other country but England and that Emma was not there.   INTERNATIONAL PHONE CALL Source: pixabay...

The Folklore of Krampus

Image
Wonderful month of December is full of holidays filled with love, joy and peace on Earth. Where I come from, one of the special dates in December was the 5th; that is when the the holiday of Saint Nicholas is celebrated.  ST NICHOLAS & KRAMPUS Source: pixabay.com When I was a child, I would traditionally wait for St. Nicholas Day since it meant getting candy and gifts. In order to get presents, children would have to clean their boots until they are sparkly clean. On the evening of December 5th, we would place our clean boots on the window, and patiently go to sleep. During the night, St. Nicholas would arrive and put delicious candy and small treats in our boots; that is, if our boots are clean enough, and we have been good all year.    Similar to Christmas, the holiday of St. Nicholas rises the question if the child had been naughty or nice. As mentioned, if you have been nice and if your boot is perfectly clean, St. Nicholas would give you treats. Ho...

The box gained popularity when it was auctioned on eBay by Kevin Mannis.

Mysterious Doll "Okiku" Grows Hair

Image
Haunted dolls are one of the most famous objects associated with paranormal. My guess is, they probably hold the second spot, right after haunted houses. There is something eerie about dolls in general; add paranormal mix and you have got a recipe for nightmare. We have discussed several different haunted dolls on this blog before ( Robert , Anabelle , Mandy , Peggy ), but the doll of today's discussion is a little bit different.

Instead of attacking you, she simply - grows hair.  THE STORY OF OKIKU Source: http://mysteriousuniverse.org/2014/ 12/the-haunted-doll-of-hokkaido / Story of the Okiku doll starts in 1918 in Sapporo, a place on the Japanese island of Hokkaido.

Allegedly, little girl carried the dol...

Image
A few weeks back, I was on a YouTube spree and I ended up watching a tone of paranormal storytimes. One, in particular, captured my attention. In a video, a girl by the YouTube name Leah Gordone talks about already terrifying enough experience; an old hag syndrome. However, there in a twist in Leah's story which captured my attention. OLD HAG EXPERIENCE Source: pixabay.com To start with, an old hag (also known as night hag) is a phenomenon which is usually experienced while an individual is either falling asleep or waking up.

People report being unable to breathe properly during these experiences; especially if an apparition is sitting on top of their chest. Old had syndrome is usually accompanied with sleep pa...

The following is a story about the allegedly haunted house located on the cliff near the small town of Lovran in Croatia. The house has been thought of as haunted for a few decades now with numerous stories circulating around.  THE STORY In the beginning, the house was actually a hotel whose dark history started very early after it was established.

Favorite Paranormal YouTube: Kyla Rebecca

Last month, we started exploring interesting paranormal side of YouTube. In a previous Favorite Paranormal YouTube post, we have discussed Paranormal Kativity , one of my personal favorite YouTube channels about Paranormal. In today's post, we will discuss channel Kyla Rebecca . Source: youtube.com YouTube channel Kyla Rebecca does not necessarily focus only on the topic of paranormal. Instead, this channel covers several different topics with paranormal being a big part of it. Furthermore, Kyla's paranormal videos are pretty popular; probably the most popular out of her videos.

She shares her own unexplained experiences and she even went on a ghost haunting investigation with her friends.  FAVORITE VIDEOS BLAGG CEMETERY In the first video, Kyla shares her experiences that occurred at the Blagg Cemetery in Arkansas, USA. She also tell a legend about a witch buried at the mentione...

Today, we will add singer Ariana Grande to the mix. Back in 2013, Ariana Grande gave an interview to a Complex Magazine .

The Black Stick Man

Among shadow people, black eyed children and white eyed children; there is another type of paranormal entity which belongs to a bit more modern folklore. In today's article, I would like to introduce you to The Black Stick Man; another mysterious being people claim to have seen.

Although, Black Stick Man never really reached the popularity as other paranormal beings, he was placed on an honorable third place on ListVerse.com and above him were only the famous Black Eyed Children and Shadow People. Therefore, this mysterious creature deserves a place on this blog. THE APPEARANCE & ENCOUNTERS Source: pixabay.com Encounters with the Black Stick Man are apparently known to be relatively common and share lots of similarities with those with Shadow People and Slenderman. Firstly, most of the e...
