  • THE HALLOWEEN ATTACK IN MANHATTAN?

    THE HALLOWEEN ATTACK IN MANHATTAN?

    Six feared dead after truck driver shouting ‘allahu akbar’ mows down cyclists on bike path in lower Manhattan before being gunned down by police as he waved imitation firearms!

    The truck rammed into cyclists and runners on the West Side Highway on Tuesday shortly after 3pm
    Driver drove south from further uptown and mounted the bike path a few blocks above Chambers Street
    He mowed down several cyclists and runners, according to police sources, then crashed into a school bus
    The driver then reportedly got out of the Home Depot truck with fake guns in his hands and was shot by police
    The suspect survived and is in hospital but it remains unclear how many he injured in his path of destruction
    He had rented the truck from Home Depot which said it was cooperating with authorities after the attack

    MORE:

    At least six people were killed and 15 were injured when a truck driver deliberately mowed down people and targeted a school bus in lower Manhattan Tuesday in what authorities are investigating as an act of terror, officials tell News 4 New York.

    More than a dozen people were hit when the driver of a Home Depot rental truck zoomed at least 10 blocks down a popular bike bath from West Houston to Chambers streets.

    The man crashed into a school bus carrying three children during the rampage, and police say that he’d deliberately targeted that bus. Witnesses told police they saw the driver swerve the truck to target the school bus. They said the driver screamed “Allah’ akbar” in the truck, then emerged carrying two fake guns — either BB or paint guns — and started running around before he was finally shot by police.

  • A very merry Trump Halloween

    A very merry Trump Halloween

    Pictured here is a very real photograph of the White House during their Halloween event yesterday–the first Halloween of the Trump administration..
    While politics may not necessarily be the forte of this website, we do occasionally mention it because of how so often the paranormal coincides with the politics.. As Clyde Lewis coined, the ‘para-political.’ 
    So when I saw this image of the White House adorned with horrific and ghastly spiders and cobwebs, it was interesting to note how the same day–Halloween time in D.C.–Robert Mueller decided to file the first charges against officials with the Trump Administration concerning the Russian/2016 election connection.
    The White House could not have looked better for the occasion….
  • STRANGER THINGS 2 was unstoppable and amazing

    STRANGER THINGS 2 was unstoppable and amazing

    There’s immense magic in the second season of Stranger Things.. magic you have to experience to believe




    To put STRANGERS THING 2 (ST2) into a condensed few paragraphs would not be proper.. not be decent. It would just flat out not work..
    ST2 continues to take us deep to the heart of a seemingly cursed Illinois town.. to their school, their arcades. Their stores. In the deep and dark 1980s as well. Reagan/Bush signs litter yards—with the exception of one lonely Mondale sign halfway through the season. The imagery, music, and colors are all reminiscent of my time growing up in the 1980s. It was such an homage to the dangerous decade, when we feared the Reds and allowed big government disguised as a smaller version of itself run wild with defense contracts, military spending, and yes secret projects in labs right beneath our noses.
    ST2 is very interesting. It is so different from the first season on Netflix, but yet somehow retains its amazing attributes that brought it the initial success. The character development is amazing.. we see the kids age through the season.. we feel like we are growing up with them. Mad Max is an amazing new character, along with her juvenile delinquent brother who seems more hell bent on hurting than saving his sister..
    Mike misses Eleven.. Eleven misses Mike. Despite the fact they’re closer than they think.. Eleven grows with her travels. Without releasing spoilers, just know the episode dedicated to only watching Eleven’s life may be worth spinning off a new series all in itself!
    What I loved about ST2 is the more things changed the more they stayed the same.. as the children grew into younger adults, there were certain scenes that paid respect to the first season youth and indiscretion.. Whether it was playing SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO NOW or coming up with a colorful new description “Demo-Dog,” it was well-done. We saw ALL of the kids’ families this time, most likely because fans decried the notion that we didn’t mean them in season 1. Barb’s dad was of particular humor. Later in season 2, there is one rather hilarious scene involving Mike’s mom, post bath, answering the door while her inept husband loudly snored on his Lazy-Boy. 
    Hopper was a strange villain-ish hero in this season. Exactly the way we like him.
    Dustin did not realize how screwed up his actions could make things… Steve Harrington didn’t realize what a swell guy he could be!
    I want to keep my emotions in check .. While I don’t want to ruin much for people, just take a good long hard glance at the images that Will draws while he is seemingly possessed by his trauma and Upside Down demons.. The giant spider, which has been visibly seen in the trailers, makes another appearance.. 
    That scene makes me hope for a season 3. Although by then perhaps it would be just too much?
    When episode 9 ended after the binge fest of STRANGER THINGS, I become emotional. The final scene made emotions swell… Viewers were most likel reminded of their childhood. Their coming of age moments. It just turns out that the gang of friends from STRANGER THINGS have moments that involve government spies, evil monsters from the underworld, and powers beyond our imagination.
    There is magic in this show. I believe that. Season 2 continues the magic and spices things up to levels that your mind will be reeling at.
    No more to say to you except: WATCH THE SHOW if you did not already. And if you did, watch it again.
  • 2017 IS THE BIGGEST YEAR FOR HORROR IN HISTORY

    2017 IS THE BIGGEST YEAR FOR HORROR IN HISTORY

    2017: The Biggest Year in Horror History

    SCARY CLOWNS.

    SCARY SOCIAL MEDIA.

    SCARY POLITICS.

    SCARY SOCIETY..

    There is probably something very meaningful for who we are as people to consider that 2017 has been the biggest year for HORROR in history

    Before this year it was 1987, 1999, and 2000..

    All of those were years of change and peril, worry and war.. All of them were years of societal upheaval.

    We respond by watching horror.. by escaping the reality of our world with the fictitious battles of good vs evil on box office screens.

    2017 was no different. Just bigger and badder than ever.

  • STRANGER THINGS 2 looks incredible

    STRANGER THINGS 2 looks incredible

    The newest STRANGER THINGS 2 trailer hit on Friday the 13th .. amazing timing as always with the fine people at Netflix..

    The excitement over this program is incredible. Not only are people re-watching and re-binging the first season in preparation, but there is an equal amount of re-watching and analyzing of the newest trailers..

    Before discussion.. take a glance:

      [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1ZXOOLMJ8s]

    My initial thought: This is actually the weaker of the teasers and trailers for season 2.. Yes, I am inclined to wonder why Eleven is more androgynous  .. why she has more hair now and no one shaved it. why she is out of the upside down and eating Eggos in the normal world..

    So many questions about her. But the trailer didn’t pay much attention to her–I think on purpose. Instead we glimpsed into the post-pubescent boys and now new friends of another gender planning something, just as the world is being taken over by giant squid creatures from the upside down.

    Not viewed at all? Mike’s mom and dad. Barb..

    Forgive me before moving on, but I really hope something happens to Mike’s dad. The guy was a total buffoon, I know on purpose, but  really annoyingly so.. Perhaps the ‘Reagan Bush 84’ sign that pops up in their front yard is a showcase of how his total trust in government and Reagan fight against the Commies with star wars defense weapons is an example of how he won’t be changing any time soon..
    Fair enough.

    I want to know the other families, though as well.. We know only Mike and Will.. There are plenty of other kids in the show that I want to understand.. Maybe season 2 will there.

    It appears from this trailer that a journalist shows up to investigate. Perhaps a conspiracy journalist.. Also, the homages being paid to KARATE KID and GHOSTBUSTERS is pretty cool. During the run-up to this release STRANGERS THINGS creators also revealed a poster showing a true and amazing tribute to another amazing movie that came out in 1984: The original NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET..

    Homages aside, the character development looks very in depth. At least judging from a single trailer.. Will seems to be a main character.. Perhaps Will becomes the earthly manifestation of the upside down and Eleven has defeat him? Perhaps Nancy is the key–or just true love.

    The MK ULTRA affair looks amazing in this..
    I am entirely excited.

    One interesting conundrum that STRANGER THINGS 2 may have is how audiences have come to know and love Finn Wolfhard playing Ritchie from the remake of ‘IT.’ He was foul-mouthed and funny.. a complete reversal in a sense from Mike .. but not really. STRANGER THINGS 2 may feature a more mature Mike.. not sure if they’ll go as far as genital jokes and F words.. But audiences may have grown so used to it from IT that they may expect it.

    But back to my thought about this trailer to begin with.. As much as I love it, I wish the final trailer released prior to the show’s October 27 binge-worthy debut would have been the one that premiered at Comic Con.. the amazing with that is complete with Michael Jackson’s THRILLER and ends with Boris Karloff’s horrific laughter.. for those who forget, this:

  • THE UNLUCK OF THE IRISH: TROPICAL STORM MAY HIT IRELAND!!

    THE UNLUCK OF THE IRISH: TROPICAL STORM MAY HIT IRELAND!!

    Yes, indeed.. a hurricane-ish type storm is about to hit Ireland..

    Hurricane Ophelia is the 10th consecutive hurricane to form in the Atlantic basin this year. According to University of Miami hurricane expert Brian McNoldy, the last time ten consecutive storms became a hurricane was 1893. While a very interesting factoid, the “elephant in the room” is that Ophelia is headed to Ireland. It is rare, but not unprecedented.

    There are a few interesting things about this.. First off, there have been really rare occasions that storms of this nature made it as far as Ophelia may..

    Actually there have been only a handful in the past years since about, oh, 1851..

    From 1851 to 2010, only 10 extratropical storms, typically the tail ends of tropical cyclones, have hit within 200 miles (322 kilometers) of Ireland….Hurricane Debbie was the only tropical hurricane to make landfall in that area, clipping the far northwest of the British Isles in 1961.

    But this is 2017–the year that mayhem on land and in oceans seems to reign supreme..

    Ophelia is in warm waters right now.. But after some more travel will lessen in intensity and most likely (we think? ) become extra tropical, somewhat like Superstorm Sandy from 2012.

    That does not mean Ireland is going to dodge a significant bullet here.. as a matter of fact, maritime problems will exist, harsh winds, and heavy rains..

    ….

    2017 is the year truly anything is possible.

  • SMALL TOWN CLOWNS MOVE TO ISRAEL

    SMALL TOWN CLOWNS MOVE TO ISRAEL

    SMALL TOWN CLOWNS MOVE TO ISRAEL!

    Channel 2 on Tuesday aired footage of a minor who dressed up like a clown in Yavne. “I am the Yavne clown,” said the boy. “I do it because it’s boring [in Yavne] I am not into killing people, only into scaring children.”

    Police official Boaz Hamami, who was also interviewed for the Channel 2 report, said that the danger is two-fold: to the people who are panicked by the clowns, and for the clowns themselves, who might end up being shot by security or worried citizens who might respond with violence at the sight of a clown attacking children.

    And there is a new report from the nation that a child was running scared at someone dressed like a clown.

    This is the same pattern of clownish oddities that graced other continents previous autumns..

    Oddly enough the movie IT came out and all of I seemingly died off in America and the UK.
    But in Israel? The small town clowns are out en masse….

  • The interesting tale of Joe Weller’s sex prank line getting haunted

    The interesting tale of Joe Weller’s sex prank line getting haunted

    Joe Weller’s sex line prank video was seen by more than 2.5 million people when it was posted back in March.

    It involved Joe trolling alleged sex workers over the phone – but some viewers spotted something creepy happening.
    In the background, a piece of gym equipment with a handle begins to swing back and forward.

    “It continues to swing in a way that if someone pushed it, it would have stopped,” he said in a recent video addressing the claims.
