Phantoms and Monsters: Pulse of the Paranormal

By Albert S. Rosales - Back in the late 60’s, 1966-67 to be exact, Point Pleasant, West Virginia had its winged humanoid, or the 'Mothman' as it was named by the great Fortean researcher John Keel (John Alva Kiehl).

The encounters of this winged anomaly were accompanied by other strange phenomena, UFOs, mutilations, MIB’s, etc. It was later said to have been an omen to the terrible tragedy in December 1967 when the Silver Bridge, which crossed the Ohio River into Point Pleasant, suddenly collapsed on December 15 1967 killing 46 people (2 of the victims were never found). However the sightings of the Mothman did not really end. There were sporadic encounters later, through the 70’s & 80’s and perhaps later.

Now in the first half of the 21st Century a winged mystery has descended on Chicago, Illinois. This historic city, sometimes called, 'Second City' (to New York) with its violent past, is no stranger to all kinds of strange phenomena, dating back to 1909 when two strange balloon-like objects were seen moving swiftly above the city, the objects carried lights and by using binoculars witnesses could see at least two men onboard the objects.

In 1954 the Air Force own “Project Blue Book” investigated the following event:

Chicago Illinois
Date: April 8 1954
Time: 1633

Mrs. Lelah H. Stoker of North Sheridan Road had returned to her apartment from the library, when she observed a very brilliant white, parachute-like object, with a suspended human form skimming over the water in all directions, level with her window, about 1km away. She called two neighbors, William Baruszak, a vice-resident of Western United Dairy, and his wife. Mr. Baruszak saw a large object floating about 100m off shore, which he took to be an experimental balloon and did not take much notice. At 16:45 Lelah called the coastguard, but as the searching seaplane neared the area, the object descended and seemed to condense in size, landing among sporadic foliage along the shoreline. From the object a small, but well-proportioned humanoid figure, dressed in a green one-piece suit, with a tight-fitting headdress alighted, walked up and down the frontage behind the low stone wall, and blended in with the grass. After the aircraft left, the object reflated and hovered over the water, and the occupant, who was now suspended in the air, re-entered the craft, which took off at high speed eastwards, without noise. During a tilt, Lelah noticed two parallel bars on the underside of the spherical umbrella. Investigated by Army Intelligence.

The Air Force never did find any explanation for it.

Of course there has been other “entity” encounters, not necessarily of the flying type. A witness sent me this fascinating encounter:

Chicago, Illinois
Date: August 1999
Time: late night

A man visiting a friend’s house and sleeping on the sofa in the bedroom suddenly woke up feeling very panicky and totally unable to move. Looking towards the front door he saw a huge humanoid figure over 7 ft tall standing by the door. The figure resembled a large “praying mantis” and was wearing something resembling a black and purple cloak. Its skin was dark gray in color. It slowly approached the witness and reached out to him with a large hand with long thin fingers and grabbed his shoulder. At this point the witness lost consciousness and does not recall anything else of the incident. He remembered also feeling very cold during the encounter.

Praying Mantis beings seemed to have become a staple in modern UFOlogy.

But our focus is the recent events so diligently chronicled by my friend and researcher Lon Strickler in his Phantoms and Monsters blog.

There were strange events and encounters before August of 2016 where in the Chicago suburb of Cicero (Al Capone’s headquarter back in Gangland Chicago) when a man saw a large winged humanoid perched on a lamp post. Events took off around February 2017 and have not stopped as of November, here are dozens of encounters all chronicled by Lon. Some witnesses called the entity a “man-bat” others a “black devil” a “winged man”, etc. Whatever it is, it has given some of those witnesses a sense of ‘evil’ or foreboding. Unlike Point Pleasant there hasn’t been too many other associated events, like UFOs, etc (that I am aware). There has been worldwide interest in these events, and Fortean and UFOs groups as far as Russia have been keeping a close watch on the incident, publishing their encounters in their own blogs and newsletters.

Lon has remained open-minded and thorough in his investigation of these bizarre events. I can only conjecture as the origin of the “man-bat”. Is it an inter-dimensional being (or beings) who has become attracted by the violent atmosphere pervading Chicago, do they thrive on this? Is it a sort of omen of an upcoming catastrophe like in Point Pleasant? We can only pray that is not.

Voice From the Living Room

“When I was 13 my Mom and I lived in Delaware, just the two of us. She took us to California for 10 days at Christmas and New Year's. We flew home on a Sunday night and drove to our house arriving some time after 10:00pm. It was a quiet neighborhood with houses set far apart from each other. We had barely walked into the entryway and set down our bags when she had picked up the phone to listen to voicemails and told me, "Shhh!" so she could hear them. So there were these few moments of absolute silence while she listened to voicemail and I stood there sort of holding my breath. The house had that extra-quiet unlived in stillness that you get when a house has been unoccupied for a while. Does anyone know what I mean? And into that moment of total silence suddenly came a man's voice speaking from a point in the room no more than 8 feet away from us. The voice said something completely ordinary, something I could kick myself for not having written down, though at the time I thought I'd never forget it. Whatever it was was banal-like, "Don't forget to bring in the mail." My ears could pinpoint the exact spot where someone would have to have been standing for their voice to be coming from there. There was no one there. There was no one anywhere in our living room. There was also no radio or television. The windows were all shut and locked. The neighbors' houses were dark.

At the moment the voice spoke I froze instantly and my eyes flicked to my Mom's. Her eyes met mine in the same instant and she put the phone on the cradle. We both just stood there without speaking for several more seconds. Then my mother said, "Did you just hear a voice say something?" I said, "Yes. What did you hear?" She said, "Don't forget to bring in the mail." I freaked out and my eyes starting tearing and she got all impatient and said, "Don't try to make a big thing out of this. I don't know what it was, but it's nothing to worry about." It was weird how defensive she was, as if she had been continually fighting off my attempts to convince her the place was haunted. I hadn't, though I had believed it was haunted since we moved there when I was 10. She made a big show of going over the whole house opening every door and closet, looking under beds, checking the garage, the basement, etc. and triumphantly declaring, "See! There's no one here. Let's just get on with things." She would never discuss that incident after that. I wish I had someone else I could talk to about it who had been there.”

'What do they what?'

Laurel, Mississippi - 2016-12-08: I awoke standing in back yard. Large craft was nearly directly above my head. It moved off slowly. It made pulsating noise. I felt sick like dizzy, nausea as it began to move off. I blacked out. I woke up inside my house. Sightings are not a big deal to me. I have seen the crafts a few times. It's the abductions that I have concerns about. All of my life these things have happened to me but nobody ever believes me. They treat me as if I'm crazy. No, I'm not a cop, preacher, or politician but that doesn't make my case any less real.

Since I was a child these things have been happening to me. My mom and dad would come into my room as I sat up in my bed crying without having any clue as to why. Bad dreams, they would ask. No, it was not bad dreams. I would awaken with the craziest feeling in my head. The main thing I remember is the intense pulsating and the paralysation. I am grown now so the fear has diminished quite a bit and has been replaced with curiosity. What do they want? Why will they not let me meet them? I mean sure, I can see it being scary as ever to wake up looking at an alien of some sort but I want to know what they want. I caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye once about two years ago and there it stood but vanished in an instance. I remember wrinkled features on its face and it was about 4 and a half to five feet tall. Not green but actually pale skinned. Not giant bug eyes but just larger eyes. I have even sent a portion of my journal to MUFON, but even they ignore me. I wish I could be hypnotized as so many others have been because I guarantee you that they will know the truth of the matter at that point. Honestly this sighting is from a year ago and I have not been bothered for quite a while. But it only makes me more anxious, waiting for the next time it happens. - MUFON

2018 Year of the Earthquakes

Scientists have warned there could be a big increase in numbers of devastating earthquakes around the world next year. They believe variations in the speed of Earth’s rotation could trigger intense seismic activity, particularly in heavily populated tropical regions.

Although such fluctuations in rotation are small – changing the length of the day by a millisecond – they could still be implicated in the release of vast amounts of underground energy, it is argued.

The link between Earth’s rotation and seismic activity was highlighted last month in a paper by Roger Bilham of the University of Colorado in Boulder and Rebecca Bendick of the University of Montana in Missoula presented at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America.

“The correlation between Earth’s rotation and earthquake activity is strong and suggests there is going to be an increase in numbers of intense earthquakes next year,” Bilham told the Observer last week. Read more at Upsurge in big earthquakes predicted for 2018 as Earth rotation slows

The 'Devil' Dies

Charles Manson, the notorious cult leader who directed his followers to commit a string of brutal murders, and who became a symbol of the dark side of 1960s counterculture, has died aged 83.

Manson was admitted to Bakersfield hospital, California earlier this month and died of natural causes on Sunday.

In 1969, his followers, known as the Manson Family, killed nine people.

Among the victims of the killing spree was heavily pregnant Hollywood actress Sharon Tate, wife of Roman Polanski.

One of Manson's young followers, Susan Atkins, stabbed Tate to death and scrawled "PIG" on the home's front door with the actress's blood.

Four other people at Tate's home were brutally stabbed to death. The next day, a wealthy couple in Los Angeles, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, were also killed by the clan. The killings became known collectively as the Tate-LaBianca murders. Read more at Charles Manson dies aged 83 after four decades in prison
