Where Do Documentaries Go Wrong?

 

The search for knowledge is the basis of my life. Whether it's research, field study, theoretical - I am all about seeking new information and new takes on the subjects.

Ghosts, Cryptids, UFOs, and Mysteries of the Universe

Mount Shasta's Mysteries Unveiled

 

Mount Shasta, California is the seat of a lot of native legends, mystic beliefs about ancient cultures, missing people, caverns, UFOs, Bigfoot, and more.

1950s Radioactive Monsters: Are They Possible?

 

It's interesting to note that, with the reality of THE bomb, horror movies in the 1950s took on the gnawing concerns. 

Japan, the target of bombs in WWII certainly had reason to ponder that. In fact, Godzilla invention seemed to start a plague of concerns. 

Cheap Halloween Decor DIY: Cardboard, Paper, Pumpkins, Glow Sticks, Electric Candles

    

This is my season! I know I'm not alone because readers of my  Halloween book "Adult Halloween: Taking Back the Season!" tell me that they get more excited about Halloween than Christmas!

Most of these things you probably have around the house and from Halloweens past. Other items are cheap or free to obtain. Take advantage of the dollar store and thrift stores - no need to get fancy.

Are Aliens Trying to Prompt Us to Use Our Intelligence? Crop Circles, UFO Crashes

 

Remember when you were a kid and your mom or dad was working on homework with you. They would give subtle clues to the answer to coax the logic out of you? Well, what if aliens are trying to coax or even test our intelligence to see if we are worthy of moving forward as a species?

Haunted Lakes: Cursed Lakes?

Kudzu: Botanical Invasion

  

Coming to Georgia, one of the most intriguing features of this vivid green and bountiful land is the Kudzu vines. 

Arizona Lost Treasures: The Lost Pick Mine

 

I'm sharing another of my research projects for treasure hunting in Arizona. Now that I've relocated, and my team has passed away, I am not pursuing these. I figured I don't want to waste the research when someone else who is ready to investigate can take it and run. Good luck!

Dancing With Snakes, Speaking in Tongues, and Witchcraft

 

I like to think I'm not so arrogant as to think that everyone should think as I do or act as I do. Hell, I've had friends who prayed to trees, believed that they should only eat foods that are white, and swore they still slept beside their late husband's spirit. 

Are Expeditons to Hollow Earth Forever Cursed?

 

The concept of a hollow earth within the earth has been around for centuries. Native legends of underground people, missing tribes, lost cultures, and aliens, ancient giants, and other unexplained races's disappearances keep the concept alive. Speculation about planes not flying over the poles and blurred out imagery of the poles make the speculation even more active.

Bigfoot Book For Children!

 

It's always exciting when amazing researchers write books. It's the information within that enlightens, fascinates, and educates. 

A Bigfoot researcher who has posted many of his excursions and evidence on this very blog is Karl Sup. Karl decided to write a book that was needed - a childrens book that introduces the fascinating subject of Bigfoot.

Billy and the Bigfoot: A Forest Guardian Adventure by Karl Sup (researcher) 

Some of the best adventures begin with a story. Join Billy as he explores the woods, meets an unexpected friend, and discovers that kindness, curiosity and respect can lead to the most extraordinary adventures.

Billy and the Bigfoot: A Forest Guardian Adventure is a heartwarming tale about friendship, nature, and finding wonder in the wild places all around us.

Feel free to use the search bar on the right and put Karl Sup's name in it. You will find endless articles by this kind and meticulous researcher. He is also speaking at the October 3rd New York Bigfoot Conference 2026. A speaker very worth hearing and presenting evidence that is quite impressive.

Autumn and apples - a match that is divine! A crisp, organic, locally-grown apple has a flavor that no store bought apple from some other state can compare to. If you can just get some locally grown ones to eat, you will feel rewarded beyond belief. But, apples aren't just for eating at this time of year. Let's see what you can do with a bushel  -

Vintage Halloween Masks - Make Your Own Creepy Mask

 

Halloween masks of the 70s and 80s were plastic store-bought variety, but prior to that, folks made their own masks often times. Some of the masks they came up with were very unsettling. I believe they are much scarier than any "realistic" werewolf and clown masks of today.

Let's review some of the overall looks from our favorites - 

Hitchcock films - the women were all high fashion, silk suits, flaring dresses, crinolines, heeled pumps, neatly groomed and shellac'd hair. The men were all about suits. Many of these looks can be found at places like Ann Taylor and Banana Republic.

Halloween series - this is teen wear from the 1970s. Ideally, you find them in a vintage store, but also some newer stores that imitate the 70s staples, like American Eagle or Free People.

Google Image Search makes it easier to find things.

Click that and load your photo and it will show you wherever it is found online. 

How to Creep Into Halloween Mood

 

In my new home of Georgia, this Halloween is like being a kid again! The last time I was in the East Coast for the season, I was 14 years old! Even though it's still green and wet, hot and muggy, I know that we are sliding into September and my mind begins to wander. If you're having autumnitis now, let's get you into the Halloween season mood with a few simple ideas -

What can we learn from the face of Bigfoot? Well, most witnesses will tell you, we will see a soul, a fellow intelligent being, another caretaker on planet earth.

The Universe IS Infinite and Alien Intelligences Understand Our Threat

 

"As it was in the beginning, now and ever shall be; world without end. Amen. Amen." 

As a kid in the Methodist Church, this benediction was a routine chant during the sermon. I never grasped the significance until decades later when I would come to realize this is one of the wisest prayers ever. 

In fact, it may well be the secret to the universe!

Spooklights: What Are They?

 

The thing we've run into with UFO/UAP phenomenon is there are lots of explanations for various aerial phenomenon and so we can't say they are all alien-driven technology. The same goes for those glowing spooklights that exist in most states, and have various and often unexplained origins.

Beginner's Stargazing

If the idea of sitting outside at night, glancing up at stars sounds like the best peep show in the world, then it's time to commit to a regular communication with the night sky. Let's start with the beginning steps -
