peashooter85 World War I Folklore — The Legend of the UB-85 Seamonster On April 30th, 1918 British patrols in the North Atlantic came upon the German U-Boat UB-85 in the open ocean, manned by a visibly terrified crew. Rather than dive, the crew of the U-Boat immediately surrendered, offering no resistance. It was noticed that the submarine had sustained damage which prevented it from submerging, however there were no reports of combat actions by Allied forces in the area. Immediately, the U-Boat’s commander, Captain Gunther Krech was interrogated. His explanation was one that the British officers certainly did not expect. According to Krech the submarine had surfaced the night before in order to recharge its batteries when a large monster crawled out of the dark waters and climbed aboard the deck of the sub. Krech described the creature as thus, “This beast had large eyes, set in a sort of skull. It had a small head, but with teeth that could be seen glistening in the moonlight. Every man on watch began firing a sidearm at the beast, but the animal had hold of the forward gun mount and refused to let go.” Immediately the creature began to shake the sub back and forth, attempting to capsize the boat. The battle continued as the men fired upon the monster while it continued to rattle the boat. Eventually the monster gave up and let go, disappearing into the dark abyss. The U-Boat was saved, but damage to the U-Boat resulting from the battle with the creature made it impossible for the boat to submerge. UB-85 was scuttled by the British, her crew taken as prisoners of war.

Female Related Strangeness Posted: 10 Oct 2017 05:16 PM PDT The following accounts contain descriptions of strange activity in which women are involved: She Didn't Look Human “I went up to Spencer Field, Tennessee,  before I was aware of Dennis Martin's disappearance . Knowing I was going to a very isolated area to do some metal detecting, I brought a .357 Mag and an AR-15 with me. You never know. It is a very scary place up there. After doing some detecting and having no luck, I explored around until the road turned to gravel. Mind you there were no power lines that I could see, nor any other kind of lines. I was a bit on edge, stopping to detect one more time. A car, with the engine skipping a big ole ark if you know what I mean, a real big guy driving and eyeballing me as he drove by, which made me more alert. I decided it was time to get out of there. As I drove not more that 100 yards, I encountered a park ranger, a bizarre looking female. Frankly she didn...

WITH REGRET – WHY I MUST LEAVE MUFON COMPLETELY Posted on: July 22nd, 2017 by James Clarkson

WITH REGRET – WHY I MUST LEAVE MUFON COMPLETELY Posted on: July 22nd, 2017  by James Clarkson I am addressing this letter to all MUFON State Directors and Members of the Board. I joined MUFON in 1987 in Washington State where I have lived since 1977 when I was honorably discharged from the Army. Recently I resigned from my position as Washington State MUFON Director for reason that will be explained. Chase Kloetzke asked me if I would remain as an FI, STAR Team member and investigator for the Special Assignments Team. Hesitantly, I agreed to remain out of respect for her. Shortly after that, I heard about the MUFON Inner Circle as part of the disclosures from Jan Harzan when he was interviewed by Kevin Randle. For the reasons explained below I believe I must leave MUFON altogether. Since I am certain that most of you know very little about me, I will tell you that after I arrived in Washington state on 1975, I completed a 20-year career as a police sergeant with numerous assignment...

A gunman turned a  Las Vegas concert  into a killing field Sunday night from his perch on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, using at least 10 guns to rain down a steady stream of fire, murdering at least 58 people and injuring more than 500 others in the deadliest mass shooting in modern United States history. Stephen Paddock as seen in a family photo.   (Facebook) The suspect, who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, was identified as 64-year-old  Stephen Paddock , a resident of Mesquite, Nevada. Police  initially sought a woman  believed to be Paddock's roommate, Marilou Danley, as a "person of interest." Detectives later made contact with her, and "do not believe she is involved with the shooting on The Strip." Clark County Sheriff Joseph Lombardo said an "excess of 10 rifles" were found in the room, but did not immediately reveal a motive, saying "I can't get into the mind of a psychopath at this point....
