Horned Giants!

(NOTE: not the actual skull)

The "Sayre Skull" was a type discovered in the 1880s in a small borough of Pennsylvania.  It was found, interestingly, in a burial mound. When uncovered, there were found to be 68 skeletons of giant people around 7 feet tall and over and horned skulls, the horns being about 2 inches above the eyebrows. It was estimated they were buried around 1200 AD.

A film is being made inspired by a short story I wrote about scarecrows. It is in the early phases of pre-production and the final script is being completed at this time.

What is a Soul: Where is a Soul?

Your body, like the paper of a photograph is nothing more than a vehicle. As the paper is a vehicle to display an image of the person; the person's body is a vehicle for the soul. Finding the image on the paper is easy, it's in the placement of the ink. But, where is the soul placed within the human vehicle or is it even in the body?

Cryogenics: Can We Bring Back the Frozen Dead?

It may seem like a trendy way to be put to rest in the 1970s that sounded awesome, feasible, and totally scifi at the time, but the practice of freezing a whole body or just a head/brain is still in practice today. These hopeful people feel they are making the best decision possible to be brought back from death's grip some time in the future when technology can revive them from both death and freezing....

The Evolution of Bigfoot

 

Any discussion of Bigfoots’ existence is likely to create a range of emotions among the public from absolute denial to complete and unquestionable belief. 

Somewhere in between are the murky waters of unanswered questions; “how do they survive winters?” “Are they related to us?” “Why don’t we run into them more often?” 

In this paper, I hope to shed some light onto the potential answers to those questions and more. After all, just like us, Bigfoots’ existence depends on having ancestors. In this paper, I will explore their possible lineage and evolutionary adaptation.

GHT in 2017

Haunting the White House: Lincoln's Ghost

You can’t talk about famous ghosts without mentioning the most beloved one in America; Abraham Lincoln. The haunting of the White House by Lincoln is a favorite story amongst historians and romantics in America. After all, when you have a parent that you trust and you believe is a good and honest person, then who replaces them? We have yet to have a president we regard in quite the same one as the man responsible for stitching America back together again. His early loss makes him an likely suspect to malinger (think of Elvis and Marilyn Monroe). Perhaps we're not ready to get rid of the ideals that put America on the map. But then, again, perhaps we sense that he really is still amongst us...
