Beyonce Accused of Witchcraft

By: Alex Kack Pop star Beyonce Knowles-Carter’s has been accused of ‘extreme witchcraft’ by her former drummer, Kimberly Thompson. Thompson filed a restraining order against Beyonce, claiming that the witchcraft used by the singer included ‘magic spells of sexual molestation’. She also claimed that the singer murdered her kitten. The restraining order was denied for the time being. It seems unlikely that there is any truth to these claims and the motives of Thompson are unknown. Alex Kack is the editor of ' Spooky News ' and the Bull Moose Review '.

By: Alex Kack 46 year old Amanda Teague of Northern Ireland previously claimed to have married a three century old ghost named Jack.  The marriage was conducted in international Waters and Teague filed legal paperwork, declaring an international marriage.

Haunted Salon Offers More Than Just Haircut

  By: Alex Kack  Charlotte YD Hale, a 41 year old English hairdresser claims that her salon, in Fordsham, Cheshire, UK, is haunted by the ghost of her deceased mother. Hale came to this conclusion after reviewing footage from her salon’s security camera. The footage, taken at 3 AM seems to show a figure that roughly looks like an elderly woman in one of the salon’s mirrors. There were other signs that her mothers presence may be lingering in the building. Hale says she has smelt burnt toast in the salon, a smell she says reminds her of her mother. Hale hired the group, Paranormal Investigators UK to further determine if her business was in fact haunted, they were unable to either prove or debunk Hale’s claims.

Witch Burning Occurs in South Africa

By: Alex Kack Two sisters were burned to death in the South African province of Eastern Cape. The women, aged 53 and 33 had been accused of practicing witchcraft by locals, and were removed from their homes by their attackers. Shortly after the murder their homes were also burnt down. Seven people have been arrested so far in conjunction with the attack, and Alfred Nzo District Municipality Mayor Sixolile Mehlomakhulu has condemned the attack in the strongest words possible. This is not the first time women have been on the receiving end of violence due to allegations of witchcraft in Eastern Cape. In May of this year a video surfaced online showing two women, accused of witchcraft, who had been stripped naked and were being whipped. Violence against those associated with witchcraft and other pagan religions has been common across the world, for centuries, however the kidnapping and burning of supposed witches, has not been common in most of the we

Harvard researchers say mysterious structure may be alien probe

By: Alex Kack  Oumuamua is the name scientists have given to a mysterious object traveling through space and into our solar system. The object is of unknown origin although scientists do know that it originated outside of our solar system, making it the first known object to have done so. It was first observed towards the end of 2017. Now researchers from Harvard University are advancing the idea that it "may be a fully operational probe sent intentionally to Earth vicinity by an alien civilization." A statement they make in a to be published paper in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. The researchers are careful to state this is far from certain, however there are abnormalities about the speed and trajectory of the object that have confused them and other researchers. Namely that the object sped up as it passed our Sun, something that should have naturally caused the object to slow. When first observed researchers at SETI attempted

The Fault in Humanity: A review of the 'The World of Lore'

The fault in humanity ‘ The World of Lore: Dreadful Places’ shows true horror is created through our own actions By MacKenzie Chase Sarah Winchester was running away from evil. Following advice from a medium after her husband and child’s death, she packed up her life and traveled west until she felt safe from the spirits she thought were haunting her. She ended up in California’s Bay Area, purchased an eight-room farmhouse in 1886 and began renovations many have speculated were meant to confuse the spirits; construction continued until her death 36 years later. With staircases that lead to dead ends, miniature doors that open into normal-sized rooms and vice versa, and an estimated 148 to 161 rooms total, the mansion was dubbed the Winchester Mystery House and opened to the public in 1923. The allure of the unknown has drawn visitors ever since and there have been numerous reports of floating lights, doors that shut on their own and cold spots along with the

Bigfoot porn is part of our national discussion now.

By: Alex Kack As mid term elections ramp up around the nation Virginia’s 5 th Congressional district is making national headlines for an unusual reason. Republican candidate Denver Riggleman is now being forced to deny that he has a proclivity for pornography featuring Sasquatch. His Democratic opponent, Leslie Cockburn, claimed that Riggleman had a fetish for sexual films and other erotica featuring Bigfoot after finding a photo of a drawing Riggleman had previously posted to social media featuring a male Sasquatch with his penis censored. Cockburn’s campaign shared the image along with the claim “Now he has been exposed a devotee of Bigfoot erotica, this is not what we need on Capital Hill” Riggleman is denying being interested in pornography featuring the creature, but has said that he has been interested in Bigfoot for years and took his wife on a Bigfoot themed expedition once. The tweet also attempts to link Riggleman to known white sup

Review: Season two of “Spooked” brings on the chills through firsthand story-telling

By: MacKenzie Chase From WNYC and Snap Judgment, season two of the supernatural podcast Spooked is now streaming, providing listeners with stories that question the truth of our reality. With stories told firsthand by the individuals who experience them, the format differs from that of other similar podcasts such as Lore, and the sound engineering helps it stand apart from the crowd with ambient noise woven in to each episode and host Glynn Washington setting up each chilling recollection with his soothing voice. “The Wraith” opens season two of Spooked strongly with Teresa Moorleghen explaining how she grew up seeing ghosts. They were all friendly ghosts, mostly recently deceased family members saying goodbye one last time, until a strange recurring figure of a nondescript woman tells her, “Nobody here loves you, nobody wants you; you need to come with me,” each time it appears. After years of torment, she’s forced to figure out what the ghost needs from her in order t

The Treasure House

By Katie Mullaly     Since I will be popping in from time to time, I feel like I should properly introduce myself with one of my favorite experiences.  I am Katie, and If there is anything that I think people should know about me, it’s that I love ghosts, and I love hunting for vintage treasures.  It should then surprise no one that I work for an estate sale company when I am not writing books and articles about ghosts. I have had a few fellow vintage-inclined friends relay eerie experiences with odds and ends acquired through estate sales and curbside finds, but I was most excited when it happened to me. Walking up to this particular house, the debris and stacks of bricks could not have prepared me for what lay beyond the front door.  Turning the knob was like setting the dial on a time machine to the mid-1960s and, for a vintage-loving girl like me, I couldn’t have been more excited.  That has always been the upside to the sometimes-morbid job of setting up estate sal

Bill Clinton Sought UFO Files While President.

 By: Alex Kack Bill Clinton allegedly sought information and files on UFO investigation while he was President, according to Webster Hubbell, the disgraced former associate Attorney General and close associate of the Clinton family.  Webster claims that while in office he was tasked by the President to dig into the information. Hubbell described the process as difficult, and stated that he felt as though his requests were being blocked or dragged out. Eventually Hubbell's work produced results however, and he was able to present the President with information about two separate Cold War era UFO studies. Both of which found no evidence they deemed conclusive related to the UFO Phenomena. Clinton made several comments about space aliens while in office, as the topic saw a renewed popularity during the 1990's. The Clinton's name has most recently been associated with UFO's during the 2016 when Hillary Clinton said that if elected she would open an investi
