Spooky quicks April 2026

Some very weird goings on. First I want to mention that humans were never meant to travel through space, even at longer distances. That will annoy science fiction fans, who so much want to make their dream of travelling through space and living on other planets to become a reality. 

There is Artemis II launched today, the first manned mission to the moon for half a century. I'll also remain quiet about my views concerning the earlier moon landings. This time round, they will make a flight around the moon, then return. No one will actually intend to land on the moon here, but there's future plans to set up bases on both moon and Mars. However, earlier this year an astronaut named Michael Fincke, was on ISS then had to be sent home to Earth after getting a sudden unknown illness. 

Another story for sci-fi fans is about a robot freaking out during a dinner! It was at a restaurant named Haidilao Hot Pot, in California, where customers were eating their meals. A robot arrived for entertainment and "dancing" when it became hyper, swinging its arms and crashing plates of food everywhere. Several people had to restrain it. Story from Daily Mail can be read HERE 

Also another robot was arrested in China for harassing an elderly woman in the street. Links to The Sun on arrested robot with video clips HERE

Since the beginning of March 2026 there's been a lot of huge brightly coloured meteorites falling from the sky. These are so big they look like fireballs. They've been seen in many countries. People wonder why this is happening so much now. We're told it's just natural, 

On the supernatural, a woman named Louisa Peck suffered a cardiac arrest after a drink, as someone had maliciously spiked her drink. She had a NDE (Near death experience) while unconscious, but after recovery, she found that she was able to see spirits and predict the future.

Tragic loss of wolves in a zoo

 Feeling very sad because of a heart breaking story I just heard about. I wanted to share it here and please beware of my emotions. 

An entire family of wolves in Wildwood Trust in Herne Common were killed on my birthday yesterday. Knowing about this made my blood run cold. It was at a zoo in Kent, a pack of Eurasian wolves lived in  an enclosure of trees. Visitors were able to see the wolves in their space and some people have even claimed they once petted them! Others felt concerned for the wolves being kept in a small confinement so all they did was pacing back and forth.

This family consisted of parents, Odin and Nuna, and their three sons Minimus, Tiberius and Maximus. No longer puppies, the young adult brothers were unable to leave the pack as nature would tell them. The only available female was their mother. The staff acknowledged a breakdown in the pack resorting to aggression among the wolves, three of them severely wounded after fighting. That could've been because these males fought over Nuna. The brothers instinctively needed to exit the enclosure and leave, travelling miles on a journey to find their own family pack. Wolves in the wild behave like this. They just don't remain at home with mum and dad during adulthood, especially not three brothers. 

No plans made to separate the lads and help them adjust to a different environment or even to meet other female wolves. The staff could have reached out to other wildlife parks, or contact wolf trusts and wolf experts. They didn't do this. The big boys only wanted to move to their own dens and become independent. This is where the anger happened. Wolves are not pets. The staff simply didn't know this! Shame on them. My blood boils now for the lives of these wolves lost to foolish neglectful people running this wild park.  

Rest and be free beautiful wolves.

The wicked Candy Lady

 There is a sinister case about a serial killer named Clara Crane. Some of this has been interwoven with folklore and today the story is an urban legend. 

Born in Terral, Texas in 1871, Clara grew up on a farm and later met Leonard Crane, fell in love and they got married. Things turned darker when she lost a child and blamed it on her husband who became an alcoholic. Out of vengeance, she decided to kill him. She put poison over pieces of caramel, fed it to Leonard and he died shortly after eating it. It was 1895 and this murder was reported to the local sheriff Dixon. After her arrest, Clara Crane went on trial and found guilty but she was considered mentally ill, so she was sent to Terral State Mental Hospital. She suffered there, emotionally and physically by abusive staff. She was under the care of Dr Vernon Matthews and it seemed that he, as well as his staff, were involved in tormenting Clara. There was overcrowding in the psychiatric hospital, so Clara was released back home in 1903. 

It was then that mysterious gifts were placed on windowsills of certain houses across town. These contained wrapped sweets of caramels with written messages inside that said "Come out and play". Children went missing soon after. Sheriff Dixon noticed there was an eerie connection to Clara Crane, who also used caramels to kill her husband. The missing children were the very children of people who worked at Terral State Mental Hospital. 

A search party looked for Clara Crane, going through her cornfields and farm. Sheriff Dixon was later found dead in a barn. Countless more deaths followed. More evidence showed Clara was behind it all, when they found caramel wrappers containing teeth belonging to the missing children. In total 28 children had gone missing. A total of 6 sheriff's were murdered in the investigation. She disappeared and was never seen again. Today Clara Crane is known as the Candy Lady. 

This is a horrible true event mimicking warnings from many fairy tales, mostly this is like the character of the evil wicked stepmother in "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". Or the cannibalistic witch in "Hansel and Gretel" with a gingerbread house made of candies to lure children. Fables can be real. The moral is don't accept gifts from strangers, and don't eat sweets from strangers. It's a creepy story that can put you off eating candy altogether.
