Lol GM I think you're safe.  :wink:


I was trying to find a way to say that because of how well you wrote that, I could really immerse myself in the story- I could actually see it. So, thanks for sharing :-)


I have an unexplainable story to add myself....prompted by the mention of an insect in another thread.


When my grandmother was alive, she had a talk with my mom about the afterlife. She said that if reincarnation exists, she would want to come back as a butterfly or a ladybug. She passed away in November of 1997. Upon returning from her funeral at the end of November, one side of our house was entirely covered with ladybugs. Ok, so that's a little odd but that could just be a bizarre coincidence. Even weirder? Since that day, there has always been a ladybug in my parents' house. Never more than that- always just one. Nine times out of ten, it's in the kitchen- just like Grandma used to be.

I don't believe, but I'm of the "I want to believe" sort, I guess.  The universe is a vast, strange place, and most of the time I'm just frustrated that I won't get to learn all about it, but perfectly content acknowledging that there's lots of shit I don't understand.

A friend did give me a spot-on tarot reading once, but her approach to it is mostly "lets see if we can use the cards to frame problems in a way you haven't thought about yet."  The fact that it wasn't supernaturally inspired didn't make it any less helpful, though.

Whenever you read about one of those 'unsolved mysteries' it's likely that the story has been fabricated entirely. ;)

I just got the image of a midwife and a woman giving birth swinging towards each other on a trapeze - when they meet, the midwife pulls the baby out. The knife juggler is standing on the floor and cuts the umbilical cord with a a knifethrow.

Sorry for the thread-cromancey but I didn't think a new thread should be made and it seems to best fit here. 

Just a spooky story (probably) I found.  I'll put it in a spoiler.

This was kind of fun to watch.  The last one seemed pretty dumb until the end.

Guess I'm the only one interested in this sort of stuff...at least who frequents this thread.  Anyway we can get a name change like to "spooky stuff thread" or something?

anyway, here's wonderwall.


the number 1 video is pretty freaking spooky.  With the one swinging chain that doesn't lose momentum.  The final bit seems like someone could have been pulling a prank on him or something.

There's a psychic/fortune teller near us and it always says, "Walk ins Welcome." Every time I drive by I say, "Of course they're welcome, she knows they're coming."
