Hays, Kansas; an idyllic slice of America, but like most of the country's land, it has seen some tragedies. One of those involves a woman named Elizabeth Polly who has come to be referred to as the "Blue Light Lady."

Discussing the Face of Bigfoot

"Adahy" painted by me 2014

What do we know of the face of Bigfoot? There have been some impressive glimpses, such as the miraculously sharp vision elucidated from the PG Film by MK Davis - 

Desert-Dwelling Bigfoot: Death Valley and Borrego Springs

There are few crueler deserts than Death Valley, California. It is not a place anyone could fathom a Bigfoot setting up housekeeping, yet giants have been associated with this region for thousands of years in Native Legends and a reported find of giant remains in caves. Upon occasion, a bare print is found in the hard-packed desert floor that confuses the mind of the viewer. How is it possible?

Krokodil Chronicles

Supporting indie artists is a huge part of my life and I really want to share the indie movie Krokodil Chronicle's Indie Gogo page because I'd like to see this film made. This group is really talented and itching to bring us what we want - 

Long Island Mysteries

Long Island is not lacking some seriously, disturbingly delicious legends. 

1970s and 1980s Scream Queens

The 70s and 80s were the most amazing decades for horror movies. The scream became the primary focus of these terrifying films and the female leads put in the position to scream did a damn fine job. Let's look at some familiar actresses and their work in those decades.

Creepy Mummified Body Parts Found!

There was a drink tradition that began in 1973 in Dawson City in the Klondike area of Canada called a "Sourtoe." A human toe that was dehydrated in salt was added to a drink as a garnishment.

Miserable cocktails aside, mummified body parts have been found and some of them have been so unusual as to seem impossible!

Spirit Energy: How To Recognize It and Use It

"Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it transforms from one form to another. For instance, chemical energy can be converted to kinetic energy in the explosion of a stick of dynamite."

Cemetery Safety Bells, Morbid Death Mementos and Superstitions

(funeral memento - above - with woven hair of the dead included)

Giving up our dead is never an easy task and it doesn't matter what region of the world or what era you grew up in, it's full of rituals and also many superstitions. Let's have a look at how we have handled death - 

Halloween Trends 2017: My Advice For Designers/Manufacturers

It may seem early to be considering 2017's Halloween trends, but it is not only a season of anticipation, it is also one that can take months of planning, whether it's a yard haunt, a party, or costume gathering. Let's see where 2017 is headed -

Monsters in the Deepest Ocean!

The ocean takes up the majority of the surface on our world and yet so little of what is in it is known to us. Upon occasion, we come across some real mysteries, tantalizing glimpses that make us wonder. For a long time, the giant squid (above) was a legend until it was finally filmed underwater. What other legends might tell us what is in the sea?

Real-Life Goblins?

Art by Luis Carrasco (LINK)

I often note in my research how local and native legends repeat themes, whether it's encountering giants or great floods. Another running theme among all cultures are a group of "wee ones" who are small, mischeivous and sometimes playful. Often times, these beings are called "goblins." And, often times people report seeing them today.

Don Monroe Case Files: Unusual Carving Unearthed!

Life-long explorer, adventurer and researcher, Don Monroe, has a million stories to tell, only he's been on the road nonstop, busy hiking the back country in dozens of countries, climbing the highest peaks and crawling in the deepest caves to understand this natural world we live in. He has hunted, tracked, trapped, cast footprints, talked to Native people, continued several-decade long ongoing research projects, devoured tons of research books, and ultimately sought answers about every aspect of nature and all the mysteries within. During those travels, he came across many unusual things. What I am presenting now is one of them -

Desert-Dwelling Bigfoot: Horizon City Monster

I am beginning a series of posts ongoing on GHT concerning the viability of Bigfoot in the desert. I expect to also be trekking to some locations to show the environments and what they have to offer to share the feasibility that Bigfoot can live anywhere. I begin the series today with the case of the Horizon City, Texas Bigfoot sightings.

1950s Movies: Science Fiction and Thriller Lovers' Delight!

The 1950s are so beloved because, like the 1980s, they were a boom time for the country's economy, the middle class, and expansion and growth in America, not to mention fashion and the arts! With the pounding away at new stretches of highway, family car trip vacations, tourist attractions and more in a Nuclear Age, it seemed anything was possible. And the movies reflected a general sense of fear of irradiation and the "Commies" mixed with changing roles of females, as well as teenagers acquiring cars and freedoms. Let's have a look at the lineup of fantastic thrillers and science fiction that flooded the theaters in the very original 1950s -

Hopi Legend: The Portal Between the Worlds?

Hopi legend tells that the current earth is the Fourth World to be inhabited by Tawa's creations. The story essentially states that in each previous world, the people, though originally happy, became disobedient and lived contrary to Tawa's plan; they engaged in sexual promiscuity, fought one another and would not live in harmony. Thus, the most obedient were led (usually by Spider Woman) to the next higher world, with physical changes occurring both in the people in the course of their journey, and in the environment of the next world. 

Scary and Precarious Roads!

Summer road trip time - why not consider scaring the crap out of your family?

Ghost Ships and Fata Morgana Mirages

Fata Morgana 

Fata Morgana is a complex superior mirage. In this instance, in the horizon a narrow band seen can separate an image, casting what looks like another image superior to the original object. In the image above it appears as if the ship is in the air. Below, the image shows a repeat of it up in the air. Sometimes, the image can be inverted. This occurs when rays of light are bent when they pass through layers that are different temperatures. 

The Psychos Next Door

Come on, admit it, it scares you to think of running into weird locals in some backwater roadway or small town, maybe a stretch of the desert while driving alone, or perhaps right next door....

Monsters in the Sewers

There was a fantastic X-Files episode involving a sewer-dwelling monster. It was so creepy and distasteful that it almost fascinates the viewer to wonder, what the heck is down in our sewers?

Are Extinct Animals Still Among Us?

Coelacanth thought to be extinct 65,000,000 has been found in the waters off the coast of East Africa

Many creatures thought to be extinct were found to still exist. The world is a large place and those that survive, know how to carve out their own niche. Let's have a look at some that were found and some that might still be here awaiting finding.

Obscure Horror Movies of the 70s and 80s

The 1970s and 1980s were horror movie lovers' heaven! There were movies about nature turning on man because of pollution, witches, devil worshippers, killers, insanity, revenge, demons, families moving into haunted houses, beasts attacking, and teens being slashed. 

You might have missed some of the more obscure ones in the offering - 

Terror of Doll Island!

Isla de las Munecas or "Island of the Dolls" (popularly coined "Doll Island") is a thing of horror for many. Why would an island filled with dolls for decades, laid to waste by the elements and neglect, be terrifying? Well, let me introduce you to its most unsettling beginnings.

Present Day Russian Neanderthal?

Regions with Bigfoot-type bipedal creatures have their own local names for these types. In Russia and Siberia, they are referred to as the Almas by the Mongolian people and Almasty by the Russians.

Desert-Dwelling Bigfoot: Yucca Man

There are well known reports of Bigfoot wandering the American Northwest, the Sierras, the Rockies, the Mississippi River corridor and even Florida and the Northeast, but there are Bigfoot reported in deserts too. The assumptions that hair-covered humans would not live there is wrong. We know they are resistant to cold, why not heat? And, if Native Americans could live in such conditions, then surely these denizens of the wild could, too.

The Most Bizarre Photographic Finds On Mars!

Mars explorers have sent back photos of some rather unusual, sometimes vague, and often times puzzling items on the surface of the "dead" planet.
