As much as I love The Exorcist, it's all in people's heads. Makes for great horror, though. Although, the possession trope is highly overdone, and should be placed on the back burner for a few years.

I think that, along the way, time travelers have been "caught" at times. I believe that at some point, we will break the time barrier. And not everyone is going to be as cautious as they should be.

Why did so many people think that the Moon Landing could have been faked?

And do you?

People think the earth is flat. People think the moon landing was faked. People think we should stop with clean energy because there's an limitless supply of fossil fuels, and they pose no threat to the planet. People think Justin Beiber is a musician.

People are stupid. Fact.

Mary Celeste (often misreported as Marie Celeste) was an American merchant brigantine, discovered adrift and deserted in the Atlantic Ocean, off the Azores Islands, on December 5, 1872. The Canadian brigantine Dei Gratia found her in a dishevelled but seaworthy condition, under partial sail, and with her lifeboat missing. The last entry in her log was dated ten days earlier. She had left New York City for Genoa on November 7, and on discovery was still amply provisioned. Her cargo of denatured alcohol was intact, and the captain's and crew's personal belongings were undisturbed. None of those who had been on board were ever seen or heard from again.


Forever to remain unexplained?

And what theory do you favour?

Like many other mysteries, we'll never had a definitive answer to what happened, simply because of a lack of evidence. Like the video said, the crew were believed to be lost at sea, and since there isn't an eyewitness to tell us what happened, every theory will be just that, a theory. It makes for a great mystery, though. One that sets the imagination ablaze.

Worried about a fire, got in the life boat and tied it to the back of the ship. It came loose, they starved out at sea.

Orson Welles - War Of The Worlds - Radio Broadcast 1938 - Complete Broadcast.

The War of the Worlds was an episode of the American radio drama anthology series Mercury Theatre on the Air.

It was performed as a Halloween episode of the series on October 30, 1938 and aired over the Columbia Broadcasting System radio network. Directed and narrated by Orson Welles, the episode was an adaptation of H. G. Wells' novel The War of the Worlds.

The first two thirds of the 60-minute broadcast were presented as a series of simulated "news bulletins", which suggested to many listeners that an actual alien invasion by Martians was currently in progress.

Compounding the issue was the fact that the Mercury Theatre on the Air was a 'sustaining show' (it ran without commercial breaks), thus adding to the program's quality of realism.

Although there were sensationalist accounts in the press about a supposed panic in response to the broadcast, the precise extent of listener response has been debated.

In the days following the adaptation, however, there was widespread outrage.

The program's news-bulletin format was decried as cruelly deceptive by some newspapers and public figures, leading to an outcry against the perpetrators of the broadcast, but the episode secured Orson Welles' fame.



Did Welles know what he was doing beforehand?

And could such a panic ever be engineered again?

Also, what do you think of the broadcast itself?

Completely convincing?

Or surprisingly weak?

They are definitely supernatural. I had a friend that became possessed after using one. He spat a black spot onto the carpet that wouldn't come off. He then developed a 2-foot tongue and turned into the grim-reaper.

"Psychic Sally" Morgan was also embroiled in controversy....





Not to mention members of her family getting rather heavy handed with a critic outside a venue......

I'm not a fan of this show but my parents are. I really don't believe Theresa Caputo is the real deal. She to me comes off a little like John Edwards in the way she talks to people or a group.

So is she real or fake????

Just for laughs

I used to be more open minded about the whole subject growing up. I wanted to believe. But I now believe that they are all fakes, using,variously, cold readings, hot readings - and often an earpiece.

To prey on people's grief makes them truly terrible human beings.

Do any of these creatures exist?


Yes?

Or no?

And, either way, please explain your reasoning.
