Download or read book BIGFOOT UFO s the PARANORMAL written by Paul Buckner and published by Last Wednesday Writers, LLC. This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has, at one time, or another witnessed something that they can't explain. Maybe felt the presence or heard voices of someone or something when alone. Or, perhaps seen something in the woods that, in their mind, shouldn't exist. Imagine hiking along a favorite trail, just you and your Labrador, when suddenly, an eight-foot-tall creature covered in dark hair from head to footsteps into the trail in front of you. Your dog, usually scared of nothing, cowers behind you, whimpering. The creature notices you, turns, glowers and charges. You have no way to defend yourself. You close your eyes praying, knowing that you'll be torn to shreds any second and there is nothing you can do to stop it. The next thing you know, you realize you're back at your car, and hours have passed that you can't recollect. Maybe you have gone to bed exhausted, fallen asleep only to awaken paralyzed? You are fully awake but frozen and held down with a crushing weight on your chest? You can see, feel and think, but you can't move or speak. Did it feel like there was a presence of someone or something staring at you when suddenly it was gone just as quickly as it came? Have you ever driven a dark, lonely road when you look up into the night sky and see a shimmering light, one that moved in ways that defy the laws of physics? Thousands of eyewitnesses claim very similar events. Others have had similar experiences but cannot recollect the details or the passing of time. The human mind can repress traumatic events in the name of self-preservation, often leaving vague impressions coupled with vivid glimpses of past events. The encounters within are actual events that are not just interesting but shocking and terrifying. I have been fascinated by these stories of cryptid and paranormal encounters. I hope you enjoy these actual encounters as much I had interviewing the witnesses.

UFOs "Flying at an altitude of a mile and moving at great speed, two strange airships were sighted by observers today. They were torpedo shaped. Army and Navy officials refuse comment. "When the flying machine - if flying machine it was - had passed a little ways over our heads it became of a bright silver color, something like a star and seemed to grow brighter all the time. It shone so bright in a short time that it was a strain on her eyes to keep it in view. The machine must have been about 3 miles high in the air and was not plainly visible so I decided to go in the house again and look for the field glasses". Bigfoot "Our correspondent describes the wild man as being about six feet, five inches tall, with broad shoulders and long apish arms; smooth face and funnel shaped head. His body is covered with dark brown hair, near two inches long. His head and a great portion of his forehead is covered with long, luxuriant, dark red tresses. Our correspondent affirms that this is the first time this wild man has ever been seen or heard of in the neighborhood." "There is a wild man roaming about who is of giant size and as hairy as a Newfoundland dog and as well as he can guess, about 9 feet high and will weigh near 500 pounds - his eyes giving light equal to the moon - and appearance of the most frightful nature and growls equal to the lion, causing the people in that section to remain home of nights with close doors and well fastened." Ghosts The scene of the spectral visitation is at High bridge, which crosses the Nashua River between Clinton and Bolton. For over a week past every train passing during the night has been halted at the approach of the bridge by a bright light, which appeared about 3 feet above the ties in the center of the bridge, and which would be swung to and fro across the tracks as a signal to stop. Upon the approach of either the train or an individual, the light would suddenly disappear when the intruder got within 10 feet of it. It shed a bright glare all around as a light of an ordinary lamp would, but there was no lantern about it, nor did a human hand hold it. Most of the stories were written during the 1800s and early 1900s. I intentionally chose stories from before the invention of the radio and TV, when the only methods of receiving NEWS were from newspapers and word of mouth. Unlike today, the public was not pre-conditioned by television, radio, magazines, and books on these subjects. At the time, a flying object was considered ridiculous. Yet, there were thousands of credible witnesses. The included true stories cover a wide array of Paranormal and the Unexplained: UFO'S The Body Snatchers Ghosts Hauntings Ghouls Witches Giants Bigfoot, Sasquatch, Yeti, and Abominable Snowman. Mysterious Animals and Sea Serpents Vampires, Voodoo, Witch Doctor, and Mediums Cannibalism Spontaneous Human Combustion Exorcism Strange Stories People of all ages will be fascinated by the stories. Many accounts are intriguing since witnesses to the events described UFOs, Bigfoot, Ghosts, etc., exactly how contemporary witnesses describe them.

Download or read book Paranormal America written by Christopher D. Bader and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2011-01-05 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant number of Americans spend their weekends at UFO conventions hearing whispers of government cover-ups, at New Age gatherings learning the keys to enlightenment, or ambling around historical downtowns learning about resident ghosts in tourist-targeted “ghost walks”. They have been fed a steady diet of fictional shows with paranormal themes such as The X-Files, Supernatural, and Medium, shows that may seek to simply entertain, but also serve to disseminate paranormal beliefs. The public hunger for the paranormal seems insatiable. Paranormal America provides the definitive portrait of Americans who believe in or have experienced such phenomena as ghosts, Bigfoot, UFOs, psychic phenomena, astrology, and the power of mediums. However, unlike many books on the paranormal, this volume does not focus on proving or disproving the paranormal, but rather on understanding the people who believe and how those beliefs shape their lives. Drawing on the Baylor Religion Survey—a multi-year national random sample of American religious values, practices, and behaviors—as well as extensive fieldwork including joining hunts for Bigfoot and spending the night in a haunted house, authors Christopher Bader, F. Carson Mencken, and Joseph Baker shed light on what the various types of paranormal experiences, beliefs, and activities claimed by Americans are; whether holding an unconventional belief, such as believing in Bigfoot, means that one is unconventional in other attitudes and behaviors; who has such experiences and beliefs and how they differ from other Americans; and if we can expect major religions to emerge from the paranormal. Brimming with engaging personal stories and provocative findings, Paranormal America is an entertaining yet authoritative look at a growing segment of American religious culture.

Clear, comprehensive, no-nonsense, Chase Kloetzke and Richard Dolan have set a new standard for investigators of strange phenomena. UFOs, ghosts, and strange creatures like Bigfoot are some of the most interesting subjects in our world, mainly because they challenge the very sense of reality that most of us grew up with. These things aren't supposed to exist. The problem, however, is that reports of them just keep coming, even well into the 21st century. Conducting a good investigation of these elusive subjects is not easy. How do you plan your investigation? What's the best way to interview your witnesses? What kind of equipment should you bring? What kind of clothing? How do you do a proper stake-out of a location? What safety precautions should you take? How do you obtain, handle, and preserve evidence? How do you document your case for posterity, so that others can learn from it? Also, what kind of strangeness should you expect from investigating these very odd encounters? What do you need to know? How can you prepare for something that exists at the edges of our shared reality?The purpose of this book is to teach you these things. Until now, there hasn't been a clearly written general guide for investigators of the weird, whether seasoned or brand-new. This is the first-ever field manual that will show you how to investigate UFOs, strange creatures, and the paranormal, and to do it in a professional manner.
