Picture of the month

 

WATCH OUT! No it's not what you think it is. This is a picture of a wolf chewing on a pinecone. It looks pretty scary though as that wolf appears to have a mouth full of extra big teeth!

The spookiness of harvest moon

 Last night was during the full moon called "Harvest Moon". It looks an eerie orange colour and happens in early Autumn, either in September or early October, depending on when it occurs in each year. This is the full moon closest to the Autumn equinox. 

Some creepy events have happened during that certain moon phase. It seems the Harvest Moon is low hanging and lingers in the sky more than other full moons. It's been associated with horror films and the supernatural. Creepy and strange occurrences have been mentioned happening during the Harvest Moon phase, as mentioned by many. Hospitals have been experiencing chaos and weirdness during a full harvest moon night. Nurses and midwives said there are more patients being admitted during full moon times but odd things during a harvest moon, such as distress and faulty electric equipment. The Harvest Moon was also called a "Blood Moon" during the Middle Ages in Britain. 

In China, people celebrate the Harvest Moon during a festival and eating delicious mooncakes. In ancient Greece, pigs were sacrificed to goddess Demeter during the Harvest Moon. The phase of this moon happens during spider season. It would be a perfect time to place lemons, conkers and peppermint around the house because it puts off spiders from going near.

Phantom red ladies

 While there are so many famous spirits of white ladies, and also grey ladies, there is also the less known red ladies. These are the most vibrant looking spirits reported from haunted locations. These ghosts are also called Lady in Red. I will mention some of them. 

At Huntingdon College in Montgomery, Alabama are stories of two phantom ladies in red. First witnessed in the 19th Century, a spirit of a young woman in a scarlet dress and holding a matching coloured parasol haunting the women's dorm at night. She was seen glowing red, and walked through the college and exited outside, which was supposed to have been the last time she was ever seen there. The other lady in red was a former student, who was a shy girl named Martha who took her own life. She always wore red and other students had reported seeing her red shining spirit. 

In February 2021 a lady in red spirit was caught on camera at Astley Castle, Warwickshire. Paul Sanders was making a documentary about the area itself when he captured a mysterious lady in red. She was an apparition many have seen before and believe is the ghost of a medieval queen. Also in a cemetery in Toowoomba, Australia, an apparition of lady in red was photographed standing by the graves in mourning.   

Many more ladies in red have been seen across America, Canada, Europe and throughout Asia. A Wikipedia page on some of the Lady in Red sightings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_in_Red_(ghost)

Angelique Cottin

Superpowers can be real as it was in the case of Angelique Cottin. She was nicknamed "Electric Girl" for her remarkable talent, a natural gift that is still incredible to this day. From Montagne, Normandy in France, around 1849, a fourteen year old peasant girl discovered that she had the ability to move objects without touching them. While working on a weaving pattern, she caused a table to jump. This is a psychic ability known as telekinesis. 

After being sent to Paris, Angelique was given a number of tests, and she could manipulate energy and had an influence on various objects including magnets. Unable to control her power, she found that she repelled some objects. Furniture was forced away from her intense energy. While she was inside the building undergoing her abilities, it felt as though there was a cold wind. 

The night generated more energy from her, especially directly from her left arm. Her entire left side was a warmer temperature than her right. Her own presence disturbed furniture, compasses and candle flames. The doctors found out that nothing really worked if Angelique was sat down without her feet touching the floor, or even if she stood on a surface made of wax, silk or glass. 

Despite the intense sorcery powers generated by Angelique, it all frightened her so much that she ran. The discovery of her strange talents earned her family money and trips to other countries where she could display her electric powers. Ten weeks after her talent was first discovered, the powers suddenly stopped working. Now we're all wondering if any of this truly happened or not.

A werewolf visitor

A werewolf tried to invade a home. This happened in Lincolnshire, England. The year was 1926 and a local man named Christopher Marlowe, who lived in a nearby hamlet called Langrick Fen not far from a village called Dogdyke, reported that a werewolf tried to break into his house. It was understood that during the night, a creature resembling a monstrous werewolf had tried to enter the house, and Christopher was so scared that he locked himself in his kitchen. Throughout the night, the creature pounded on the doors and windows, trying to burst in. 

The terrified man couldn't get any sleep. He waited in fear as the hours passed, and then as dawn broke and daylight appeared, the werewolf was gone. Christopher believed that he was tormented that particular night because of a skeleton that he found. He was an archaeologist and while digging, he found an unusual skeleton with a human body and the head of a wolf. He took it home, and that was when his house became attacked that very night by a werewolf looking creature. Quickly the next day, Christopher returned to the site where he found the skeleton and reburied it. He wanted nothing to do with it. 

Due to recent events, as reported by the Daily Star in 2016, some believed there was a "large wolf" prowling the woods near Dogdyke, after such creature had been witnessed. Police put out alerts warning parents to keep their children safe. Mutilated bodies of hares only added to the fear of the local legendary werewolf.
