paranormaldatabase.com — The oldest recorded county name in Britain (both the Romans and Greeks referred to it as Kention, and its populace Canti), Kent is also called the Garden of England - a nod to the legendary hop fields and orchards scattered across the countryside.

Canterbury has several ghostly attractions, including a phantom cycling mayor, while the village of Pluckley claims to be the most haunted in the world (although disappointingly, a large number of reports are little more than rumour or legend). read more...
discoverychannel.co.uk — An unusual source of UFO evidence can be found in artwork which stretches back over thousands of years. It often seems to contain “anomalous” figures and extraterrestrial craft. Even with such a large amount of evidence available it is hard to understand what the artists were trying to depict. A cave painting from Val Camonica, Italy dated 10,000 BC appears to depict two beings in protective suits holding strange implements. Another cave painting from Tassili, Africa shows humanoids wearing round helmets with a disc flying in the sky. This dates from 6000BC. There are further UFOs on pre-renaissance paintings. read more...

discoverychannel.co.uk — One of the most important UFO close encounters occurred at Falcon Lake, Manitoba in 1967. While exploring the area for metals, amateur geologist Stephen Michalak observed two red, glowing objects flying overhead. One of them landed 150 feet away from him and began to change colour from red to orange and finally to grey. Michalak could smell sulphur and hear a strange hissing sound, so he decided to approach the craft. A door opened and two voices were heard from inside the UFO. Michalak called out in English and then in several other languages, but still no response came. He began to look at the exterior of the craft when a heat was vented through an opening. This set Michalak’s shirt and vest on fire, leaving him in a great deal of pain as the craft flew off at great speed. read more...
discoverychannel.co.uk — Foo Fighters reportedly pursued aircraft during World War II. They were described as small, fast moving balls or disks of light that would surround the plane. Some pilots believed them to be enemy inventions sent to distract them from their mission. One of the first reports happened in October 1943 when US B-17s were flying over Schweinfurt, Germany. During the bombing run dozens of small, silvery disks suddenly appeared. The disks were about an inch (2.5cm) thick and four inches (10cms) in diameter. One of the aircrew saw one of the disks hit the tail of one of the planes but it had no effect on the aircraft. read more...

discoverychannel.co.uk — Mysterious animal deaths sparked mass hysteria on the small island of Puerto Rico. In 1992, Puerto Rican newspapers reported a series of strange killings had taken place, of a variety of animals including birds, horses and especially goats. The killings occurred around the village of Moca, and the local people believed a mythical creature called El Vampiro de Moca was responsible. Over a period of six months the slaughter became more widespread, causing mass panic and hysteria. Researchers coined the term “Chupacabra” meaning “Goatsucker” in Spanish. The name related to the puncture wounds and lack of blood found on the victims. The reports of Chupacabra activity then began to spread into the Americas and for the last decade sightings have been reported as far north as Carolina, USA and as far south as Chile. read more...
discoverychannel.co.uk — In 1990, an unidentified sea creature was washed up on a remote Scottish island. Residents were mystified by the 12ft anomaly covered by sand and seaweed. They believed it to be the corpse of a sea monster. There are numerous historical accounts of mysterious, partially decomposed carcasses washed up on beaches. They are frequently alleged to be the remains of strange aquatic creatures, like sea serpents and the kraken. Tasmania was the scene of another unidentified carcass, or globster as they are known in the paranormal community. The carcass was five metres long and weighed four tonnes. Marine biologists investigated and decided it could be whale blubber, a giant squid or something else unknown to man. Another globster washed up three years later in Newfoundland. It was covered in fine hair and an incredible seven metres in length. The carcass had no head and a series of flippers, and a skeletal structure was also discovered. read more...
