Sept. 26, 2012 - Local fishermen and forestry workers have reported several sightings of a bi-pedal, fur-covered creature in Siberia. Three separate reports were reported only a few weeks apart.

A couple who spotted the beast thought the creature may have been someone hurt, and when they approached it it stood up on two legs and began swatting away tree limbs with it’s arms to escape the approaching people. They made a point to say in their report that the creature could not have been a bear, as it had walked away on it’s legs.

On the bank of the Mras-Su River, a fisherman saw what he called “tall animals looking like people.” He could not see them clearly from a distance, as his binoculars were damaged. The fishermen waved, but the fur-covered creatures retreated back into the forest.

The third report came from a forestry inspector spotting one of the supposed yetis in a national park. The inspector, named Sergei Adlyakov, claimed to the yeti did not look like a bear and only hurried back into the woods once it became aware of the inspector’s presence.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) — known as H. P. Lovecraft — was an American author of horror, fantasy and science fiction, especially the subgenre known as weird fiction.

Lovecraft’s guiding aesthetic and philosophical principle was what he termed “cosmicism” or “cosmic horror”, the idea that life is incomprehensible to human minds and that the universe is fundamentally inimical to the interests of humankind. As such, his stories express a profound indifference to human beliefs and affairs. Lovecraft is the originator of the Cthulhu Mythos story cycle and the Necronomicon, a fictional magical textbook of rites and forbidden lore.

The Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo (also Catacombe dei Cappuccini or Catacombs of the Capuchins) are burial catacombs in Palermo, Sicily, southern Italy. Today they provide a somewhat macabre tourist attraction as well as an extraordinary historical recordPalermo’s Capuchin monastery outgrew its original cemetery in the 16th century and monks began to excavate crypts below it. In 1599 they mummified one of their number, recently-dead brother Silvestro of Gubbio, and placed him into the catacombs.

The bodies were dehydrated on the racks of ceramic pipes in the catacombs and sometimes later washed with vinegar. Some of the bodies were embalmed and others enclosed in sealed glass cabinets. Monks were preserved with their everyday clothing and sometimes with ropes they had worn as a penance.

Originally the catacombs were intended only for the dead friars. However, in the following centuries it became a status symbol to be entombed into the Capuchin catacombs. In their wills, local luminaries would ask to be preserved in certain clothes, or even to have their clothes changed at regular intervals. Priests wore their clerical vestments, others were clothed according to the contemporary fashion. Relatives would visit to pray for the deceased and also to maintain the body in presentable condition. The catacombs were maintained through the donations of the relatives of the deceased. Each new body was placed in a temporary niche and later placed into a more permanent place. As long as the contributions continued, the body remained in its proper place but when the relatives did not send money any more, the body was put aside on a shelf until they continued to pay.

Richard Talbot, in the year of 1185, was granted the lands by King Henry II. The Talbot family would reside in the castle for nearly 800 years from 1185-1976 aside from a period of 1649-1660 during the Cromwellian Conquest of Ireland. Cromwell had taken the castle and granted it to Miles Corbett, who would be hung after the demise of Cromwell and restored to the Talbots. Currently, the castle is owned by the Irish State after being sold by Rose Talbot in 1975.

The Malahide Castle has seen its fair share of blood and battle. Fourteen members of the family would die due to the Battle of Boyne within one day. Currently, the castle claims to have four (or even five) ghostly inhabitants.

The Legend of the Mothman” explores the strange disturbances, odd sightings, bizarre occurrences and strange eyewitness reports connected to a creature known as the Mothman, first sighted in the Point Pleasant, West Virginia area in the sixties. Strangely, the sightings and disturbances seemed to reach a peak with several area residents sharing the same nightmare of a river disaster.  On December 15, 1967, the Silver Bridge spanning the Ohio River between Point Pleasant and Gallipolis, Ohio collapsed into the frigid water, sending 46 people to their deaths. Many of those who lost their lives had reported (at one time) seeing the Mothman. Perhaps most disturbing, there were no reported sightings after the bridge accident.
