Petermännchen

**Petermännchen** is a small good-natured household spirit who is said to live in the Schwerin Palace in Schwerin, Mecklenburg, Germany.

## Small

The diminutive spirit, maybe only a few feet tall, is often described as carrying many keys, roaming through the vaults and tunnels underneath the castle, unlocking doors as he goes. Other descriptions of Petermännchen have him carrying a lantern and a sword or dagger. He is also said to be the keeper and watchman of the castle, rewarding those who are honest and good. Conversely the spirit will punish or drive away thieves and intruders. To do so Petermännchen will cause a nuisance or play pranks. The spirit is said to make crashing and banging noises at night. Petermännchen is also said to have woken soldiers who fell asleep on their night-watch in order to save them from being punished.

Legend further has it that when Christianity first came to the Schwerin area, a pagan god, who was worshiped at the site of the present Schwerin castle, fled leaving his servants, the spirits. Eventually these spirits also departed, except for one: Petermännchen, who would not leave his post. Other legends surrounding the ghost have him once working in the tunnels as a blacksmith.

Petermännchen has been described as appearing in numerous forms over the years, sometimes as an old man with a white, flowing beard extended down to his waist. On another occasions Petermännchen would have a cavalier look with a stylish moustache, wearing a waistcoat, riding boots with spurs and a feathered hat.
Greensburg Incident

The **Greensburg Incident** is a UFO in bigfoot in the May 18, 1975 at took place in are Greensburg, Pennsylvania.

## Sighting

The clock had just struck ten o'clock in the evening of May 18th, 1975. Philip Arlotta and his unnamed wife had just sat down in their car, and were preparing to return back to their home for a good night's sleep after having visited some relatives in Greensburg, Pennsylvania. Reaching down absent-mindedly to start the car's engine, Mrs. Arlotta suddenly noticed a bizarre object moving in the sk just above them. It was described as being roughly the size of a cantaloupe melon, and as being of an ovoid shape. This aberrant airborne ovoid was bright yellow on the bottom, but darker nearer the top - and seemed to have six square windows in the darker section of its body. Red light shone from behind these windows. The object was making its way across the sky from east to west.

Confused, she alerted her husband to the weird aircraft - and he suggested that she turn off the engine to see if they could hear something from the craft. However, no sound was heard - and after about a minute of dumbstruck observation, the Arlottas called their relatives over to their location to join them in watching the object. Five people congregated, all staring at the aerial anomaly as it seemed to move towards them at what they estimated to be an altitude of less than 1000ft. Just as it got closer and closer to the awestruck witnesses, it abruptly made a right-angle turn and moved off to the left. As it began gaining altitude, it changed colour from yellow to orange.

Not wanting to let this weird wonder evade them so easily, the witnesses piled into the car and followed the supposed spacecraft. They chased it down a back-road, and as they did so they noticed that it was seemingly smaller than it had previously been. They lost sight of the object as they turned onto Route 130 - but they said that they had observed the elliptic enigma for roughly four minutes.
Red Room Curse

The **Red Room Curse** is an early Japanese Internet urban legend about a red pop-up ad which announces the forthcoming death of the person who encounters it on their computer screen. It may have its origin in an Adobe Flash horror animation of the late 1990s that tells the story of the legend.

## Legends

There are several variations of the Red Room Curse urban legend. According to the most common one, while browsing the Internet the victim will be presented with a red pop-up with a black text saying "Do you like — ?" (あなたは〜好きですか?). After trying to close it, the pop-up will reappear, this time the text saying "Do you like the red room?" (あなたは赤い部屋が好きですか?). Then, the screen will turn red, displaying a list of names of the Red Room's victims. The target will sense a mysterious presence behind them, after which they will lose consciousness. They will later be found dead in their home, with the walls of the room in which they are discovered "painted red with blood".

In the late 1990s, a Japanese interactive Adobe Flash horror animation, considered to be the origin of the Red Room Curse urban legend, was uploaded to GeoCities. It told the story of a young boy who was cursed and died after seeing the pop-up. The legend of the curse gained notoriety in 2004 due to the Sasebo slashing – the murder of a 12-year-old schoolgirl by an 11-year-old classmate referred to as "Girl A" at an elementary school in Sasebo. "Girl A" was reported to be a fan of the Red Room Curse animation, having the video bookmarked on her computer at the time of the murder. The webpage in question is currently inaccessible using conventional methods due to the discontinuation of Geocities and Adobe Flash.
Ghost of Sheriff George Corwin

The **Ghost of Sheriff George Corwin** is a haunted ghost in Joshua Ward House Salem, Massachusetts steeped in history from, George Washington to George Corwin, High Sheriff during the Salem Witch Trials.

## Story

A hotel known as The Merchant. It’s exterior is freshly painted and the interior is filled with luxurious furnishings. This house also happens to be steeped in history and is also known as the Joshua Ward House. This beautiful Federal-style house was constructed in 1784 for an influential sea-merchant named Joshua Ward. He was famous for being a prime supplier of molasses (used for rum) and spices such as Sumatran pepper to the United States. His efforts helped build the city of Salem.

It was built on the original foundation of a house that dates back to the 1600s, which was once the home of George Corwin, known as the High Sheriff during the Salem witch trials. There are still stones along the ground near the house that can be dated back to this period.

There are multiple myths surrounding Corwin, though the most well-known might be that he was cursed (along with the city of Salem) by a man accused of witchcraft named Giles Corey. The man is said to have uttered the curse with his last dying breath while Corwin oversaw his condemnation of Peine forte et dure. This harsh and grotesque court-ordered procedure entailed piling multiple weights on the accused chest until they confessed or died. The hotel is located on Washington Street in Salem, which was named after George Washington, who stayed at the home when he visited the city to address the troops.
Ectoplasm

**Ectoplasm** is a mysterious phenomenon associated with The Paranormal activity known as Seances. The term was first coined in 1913 by French Neuro-Researcher Dr. Charles Richet.

## Phenomenon

Ectoplasm was thought to be the physical manifestation of a Spirit or related Entity. Described as a vapor-like substance, it is emitted from a Medium or Psychic's mouth, nose or ears. Lighter than air, it often solidifies into a gelatinous material (often described as "wet cotton"). Ectoplasm is also accompanied by an undefined odor.

With the "craze" of Seances and the Public in general - beginning in the Victorian Era and going forward well into the 1920s, the appearance of Ectoplasm was a regular component to a Seance. Samples were often impossible to collect, due to the fact that the slightest light would cause Ectoplasm to disintegrate. Those few and rate samples tested yielded no unusual elements. Many classic debunkers of Seances, found that in almost all cases, Ectoplasm was fake (often made by the Hoaxers themselves). "Floating" and taking on the "appearance" of the alleged "departed", were all part of the Ectoplasm "fraud".

As time progressed (as did technology), less and less examples of Ectoplasm came into existence. By and large, the scientific community has largely discounted the phenomenon. However, a few bonafide cases have arise that produced Ectoplasm not so easily explained (with samples determined to be of "unknown" origin). Conversely, the UFO phenomenon known as "Angel Hair" also falls into this category.
Aka Manto

**Aka Manto** is a urban legend malicious masked spirit who is said to strike if you use the 4th washroom stall - When it attacks, it typically offers you your preference of "Red, or Blue?"

## Story

Whatever item he offers you changes the way he might attack you. – a few classics takes include Toilet Paper, Hands, Tongues, and clothing items such as Cloaks, Hats, Scarves, Bows, Jackets, & Vests. - This Urban Legend has spanned generations since approximately the 1930's so new clothing/items are added with each: offering a 'Scarf' means he'll slit your throat, Hats result in a blow to the head - "Can i offer you a Red Hanten?" Is yet another classic variation that leaves you with your sides sliced. – Cloaks in particular result in your back skin being flayed so it flies like a red cloak. - The tongue/hand variations seems to be related to yet another older toilet yokai called "Kainade" - a yokai that hides in squat toilets and will lick/touch your bottom with a ghostly hand.

The most famous being yellow where he will give you a fatal swirly, drowning you in the toilet water you just used. - Being cheeky and asking for something nonsensical like "rainbow" apparently results in hanako-san being summoned to pull you down instead. In a few cases purple (a mixture of the two main choices) is the correct answer to get away. otherwise, saying: "I don't need any." is usually the best response as you'll be given enough time to escape... (Albeit, without wiping...) this might also be related to the purple granny/purple mirror urban legends

With each new generation, new rumours spring up and more gets added to the story, as such the stories and his appearance change quite a bit, as legends are spread largely by word of mouth its difficult to tack anything concrete but: however The earliest stories of akamanto are said to date back to 1930s: where it seems to have been related to wild rumours spreading from the true crime story of "ao getto" murder, or blue blanket murder of 1906.
Fatal Fare

The **Fatal Fare** was a japanese urban legend a of Horror and very disturbing Urban Legends. One, is that of the tale of The Fatal Fare . It involves a Cabbie (Taxi Driver), who picks up a normal, but somehow disturbed looking Woman. Getting inside his Cab, the Fare begins to give the Drivers a series of very difficult directions to her destination.

## Story

The Japanese have become Masters of sorts in the vein of Horror and very disturbing Urban Legends. One, is that of the tale of The Fatal Fare . It involves a Cabbie (Taxi Driver), who picks up a normal, but somehow disturbed looking Woman. Getting inside his Cab, the Fare begins to give the Drivers a series of very difficult directions to her destination. These involves turn after turn, often through difficult to maneuver Streets. Through Town after Town, and eventually to the Country, no doubt the Cabbie see s a large payment for this rather long trip. However, after so much driving, the Cabbie gets annoyed as asks his Fare, how much longer it will be. The Woman responds with You Shall Soon See . What an odd answer thinks our Cabbie, who turns around to look at his Fare.

As he does, she suddenly vanishes. As he turns back around, he hardly has any time to stop his Cab from crashing off a Cliff! The origin of this story is sometimes said to be that The Fare was a distraught Woman, who was trying to get to The Hospital to see her dying Daughter . That Cabbie she used, hot stuck in traffic and the Woman never made it in time to say goodbye to her. So distraught, she threw herself off a Cliff. Now she spends Eternity visiting justice upon Cab Drivers.
Devil's Toybox

**Devil's Toybox** was a haunted house in creepypasta a place Alexandria, Louisiana attraction during Halloween Season, most are harmless fun. *Guests* often traverse a series of themed rooms with Actors dressed as various Haunts and Demons, popping out of the enforced darkness for a quick scare. But in 2014, one such Haunted House caused such a stir, that it's *effects* are still unexplained.

## House

In The Town of Alexandria, Louisiana – a local businessman built a rustic *Swamp Cabin* – along with several other themed structures, for a Halloween scare. But the cabin was decorated rather oddly. The entire interior is made of mirror. The floor, walls and roof are all reflective. In a flashing strobe light, one could very well become disoriented. But few thought the cabin could drive one insane. After only a few hours of operation, Guests ran screaming from the cabin. Many stated that the very room *made them see things* – best described as from the *bowels of Hell*. One local Man was up to the challenge it seems, and stayed inside the cabin for 30-minutes. He was taken out, white haired and unable to talk. He still hasn't. So pervasive and creepy was this effect, that the businessman closed His attraction, but never demolished the cabin – which still stands in the Alexandria woods. Locals now call it.....*The Devil's Toybox*.

One theory is that (unknown to most), the land was used by local Voodoo Priests for hundreds of years to conjure various Demons. The Earth is thus so saturated with evil that the installation of mirrors (and the resulting *Mirror Magic*) conjured up what people experienced. Of course, we can easily attribute the *effect* to the very real phenomenon of induced seizures which can be brought about by bright and flashing lighting (which has been medically documented as well). The rest is chalked up to superstition.......at best!
Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo

**Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo** was a ghost ventured previously, no other name in The City’s a New Orleans, Louisiana History still elicits respect and fear as that of Marie Laveau. The most famed Practitioner of The ‘’Dark Crafts’’, Her grave is still a pilgrimage since Her death in 1881.

## Overview

As We have ventured previously, no other name in The City’s History still elicits respect and fear as that of Marie Laveau. The most famed Practitioner of The ‘’Dark Crafts’’, Her grave is still a pilgrimage since Her death in 1881. And it is Her notoriety that is applied to a Store Front Business in New Orleans called *Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo*. Opened for ‘’business’’ in 1988, The Store sells every conceivable talisman, amulet, ingredient and icon dedicated to The Craft of Voodoo. The only rule for entrance? Absolutely NO Photography is allowed inside. It is ‘’thought’’ by Believers, that a photograph may trap some wayward Spirit (Loa), which in turn would ‘’follow One home’’ – much to the displeasure of The Offender.

The other ‘’selling point’’ for Laveau’s House, is it is touted as being Her actual Home. But most credible Historians cite that Marie’s original House (several blocks away), was long ago torn down – replaced by a various collection of buildings and businesses. Believers cite in retort, that She have ‘’other Homes’’, but no real proof exists that The ‘’House of Voodoo’’ is one of them. Owners of The House, state that Laveau’s Ghost is a common presence felt often, and the Business is – by virtue of WHAT it is – is a Paranormal Hotbed. But other than private Mediums and approved Seances – no real Paranormal Investigations have ever been allowed. So the next time your in Louisiana, do go and visit The ‘’House of Voodoo’’, One never knows just WHAT may happen.
Slendergumby

**Slendergumby** was a humanoid entity that made only three appearances in mid-August of 2017. First posted to Reddit and later submitted to the National Cryptid Society's website by a witness known as "Luke", the account involves a tall humanoid entity inhabited the forested areas near the witness's house. For three nights in a row, Luke claimed to have seen a tall humanoid entity wandering about in the farmland behind his house.

## Description

The entity, which was first allegedly sighted on August 14, 2017, was described by Luke as resembling the popular fictional clay character Gumby, both in its gangly appearance and the fact that it appeared to be a flat "slab" when viewed from the side. Luke described the creature as being much too tall to be a human and covered in gray skin. While the body was reportedly very stiff and rigid, the legs were described as lacking knee joints but instead bowing outward and inward like a plank of wood bowing due to pressure. Instead of a normal human-like gait, this resulted in the entity taking huge lunging steps.

Luke admitted that it was possible that he was hallucinating but dismissed that conclusion due to the creature making its appearance at the same time every night and making near identical movements each time. Luke claims that the distant position of the creature made getting a photograph impossible, explaining the lack of photographic evidence.

The odd appearance and short run of sightings make it nearly impossible to determine the identity of the figure. When examining local wildlife to identify a possible culprit for mistaken identity, the closest possiblities are tall wading birds such as the wood stork, great egret, or whooping crane, all three of which are a white or light gray in color.
Cowichan Hospital Alien

The **Cowichan Hospital Alien** is a alien being and UFO a UFOnauts took place Duncan, British Columbia, Canada.

## Sighting

Nurse Doreen Kendall expected a calm night on New Years Eve 1970. She was working the Late Shift at Cowichan Hospital in Duncan, British Columbia, Canada. Working as Charge Nurse, she was on the 5th Floor of the Hospital (checking on her sleeping Charges). Wishing to open a window for a little air, as Nurse Kendall pulled back the drapes, she was hit by an intense, flood of White light from OUTSIDE the window! Staring through the light she saw what she described as a Silvery, Bowl-shaped Object hovering some 60 feet from the window, in the air. Rather than feeling nervous or scared, Nurse Kendall reported feeling strangely at peace . The Object had small multi-colored lights around it's perimeter. The top of the Object was a transparent Dome from which she could discern 2 Beings looking at her! They appeared Human and both were bald . They also were wearing Black, tight outfits that she could only describe as uniform-looking .

Both Beings seemed concerned with a panel in front of them . It was almost as if they were having Ship troubles and WEREN'T supposed to have been seen! After several minutes of staring at the Craft, it suddenly began to rotate faster . The transparent Dome became solid and Nurse Kendall could no longer see the 2 Beings. The Craft then whipped off - without a sound, straight up! Nurse Kendall reported the incident to both Hospital Administration (and the local Police). Nothing was said. Eventually Nurse Kendall left Cowichan Hospital retiring shortly thereafter.
Chupacabra

The **Chupacabra** is a vmpire seemingly vampiric animal believed by many to inhabit the arid desert regions and rural grasslands of the southern United States and some areas of Central America. A member of the Cryptozoological Big 5, the chupacabra was first reported in early 1995 in a rural area of Puerto Rico, but sightings have since been reported on the mainland, particularly in northern Mexico and southern Texas linked with Alien (Extraterrestrial) contact and Abductions, the Supernatural and the Occult.

## Sighting

Part Hispanic folktale, The Chupacabra has many origin stories and even many more descriptions. Over the last 10 years of the 21st Century, more Chupacabra Photos along with actual captures have been presented. Described as part Dog/Wolf/Coyote and part Reptile, it is also composed of part- (as have been told). Modern sightings go back as far as 1994.

The Chupacabra is said to have glowing red eyes and drinks the blood of it's victims (cows, goats, sheep and dogs). Some legends state that The Chupacabra was genetically manufactured by Alien life to assist them in their cattle mutilations made ever so popular in the mid-1970s and early 1980 in the American Mid and Upper West. Still other point to the beast as an Emissary from The Devil. As stated, recently many Chupacabras have been caught (or carcasses found). Resembling a type of local hairless dog that is a Dog-Coyote mix these have been advanced as the real Chupacabra's. One this is for sure, something does live out in the deserts of Central America that cannot be explained.
Black Stick Men

The **Black Stick Men** are enigmatic entities that are one of the more fairly recent of cryptid sightings - however, they are linked to ancient beings depicted in some cave drawings, which some groups believe are signs of Ancient Aliens or extra-dimensional travelers.

## Description

Black Stick Men are humanoid beings that resemble stick figure drawings. In addition, Black Stick Men lack any facial features whether it be eyes, a nose, or a mouth. Despite the name, it is speculated that this species is entirely genderless. Black Stick Men are said to vary in height some ranging from that of a normal human to several feet in length. What is especially peculiar about these creatures is how they appear to be entirely two-dimensional. They allegedly possess no shadow, and their methods of communication are also unclear. Witnesses have reported that Black Stick Men are charged electrically with static electricity being the most common guess.

Unlike other paranormal creatures, Black Stick Men aren't connected to any particular paranormal event. Rather, they manifest themselves without many prompts. As for where these humanoids came from there are multiple theories. One theory states that because of their two-dimensional physique, many conclude that they were most likely natives of another dimension. Other theories infer that the Black Stick Men are actually demonic entities similar to the Shadow People. Black Stick Man are also theorized to be peaceful entities that aren't aware of their effects on humanity, and simply wish to travel.

However, there is no definitive confirmation that the Black Stick Men are related to the Shadow People phenomenon. One of the more less sinister theories is that a Black Stick Man is merely the manifestation of a person's psyche (much like tulpas, Doppelgangers or a malevolent entity known as a Fetch). Many claims to have seen these beings whenever they felt fatigue or were tense.

While there are no confirmed attacks on witnesses by Black Stick Men, many have reported feelings of aggression and agitation from the encounter. It is plausible these creatures emit negative energy from them or may feed on negative energy much like Astral Vampires. If a Black Stick Man is discovered, it would create a movement that mesmerizes the eyewitness.
El Ayuwoki

El **Ayuwoki** is a urban legend the titular monster from the steam game Escape The Ayuwoki. The Ayuwoki is a humanoid monster that stalks a woman in a rundown mansion. The girl is forced to hide from him under the tables and behind chairs. The Ayuwoki is a monster that has pallid skin and large, sharp teeth for consuming his prey. He is dress in black and has charcoal hair. He typically stands upright, but will run on all fours when chasing the player.

## Origin

The meme was originally began by the YouTuber thomasrengstorff who created an animatronic version of the real Michael, and published a video about it entitled "My Ghoul Jackson." The meme began to spread on January 3, 2019 with an edited version of "My Ghoul Jackson" and an added backstory behind the video. According to the urban legend, Ayuwoki would sneak into its victim's room at night to say "Hee hee" in reference to Michael's vocal riff. The growth of the Ayuwoki became so pronounced, most likely because of the events regarding the demise of the Momo meme, many believe that Ayuwoki was a conglomeration of Michael Jackson and Momo. Ayuwoki quickly became an exploitable meme with many people taking the challenge of calling Ayuwoki at three in the morning.

An online game entitled Escape the Ayuwoki was released around the end of March where the premise of the game is the player is kidnapped by the Ayuwoki who takes them to his dark, disorderly mansion. The objective is to escape the house without making much noise as the Ayuwoki could hear everything in the house. The Ayuwoki is depicted as being a feral beast who tends to run on all fours and has an array of razor sharp teeth. If caught, the Ayuwoki would bloodily kill the player, presumably by eating them alive. The game is currently in its first chapter with the remaining chapters still being in development.
Ghost of Lucille Ball

The **Ghost of Lucille Ball** was a ghostly still in Los Angeles, California separate reports of her *making Her Presence known* today. First is her *last* Home located in Beverly Hills. Long since re-sold, it current Owners report that Ball's House is a *hotbed* of Paranormal Activities. *Lucy* however, is NOT a *Wraith*, though – preferring to still *pull practical jokes* it seems. *Things* placed in *one spot* will vanish and be *found* elsewhere A LOT. Further, in later years, Ball spent much of Her times upstairs.

## Ghost

Lucille Ball was a Comedian, Film Star and all around well respected (later) Business Woman, at a time when Women were regulated to very few jobs. Regardless of Her turbulent Personal Life, Ball would remain a fixture of *Classic Television* for many decades even after Her death at 77 in Los Angeles, California. But *Lucy* is still a *hanger on* to this Life it seems....as has been reported in two separate reports of Her *making Her Presence known* today. First is Her *last* Home located in Beverly Hills. Long since re-sold, it current Owners report that Ball's House is a *hotbed* of Paranormal Activities. *Lucy* however, is NOT a *Wraith*, though – preferring to still *pull practical jokes* it seems. *Things* placed in *one spot* will vanish and be *found* elsewhere A LOT. Further, in later years, Ball spent much of Her times upstairs. On a 2nd Floor landing, it is quite common to *hear* footsteps *walking* from Her old Bedroom to a small Home Office (at all times of day and night – which Lucy did commonly).

The second location MOST cited in *Lucy Lore* is her old Office on The Paramount Studios in Hollywood. Known still as The Hart Building, it was occupied by Lucy and Her Husband Desi Arnaz when they founded *Desilu Productions*. Lucy was known for Her perfume, which was quite distinct. The *smell* is very active as reported by current Staff of The Building, as are reports from Studio Security of *lights being turned on* in Lucy's old Office – late at night when NO ONE is present. Lucy liked to work late in order to achieve *perfection of a particular Project she was working on*. Some other Staff have even claimed to have *seen* the figure (shadowy) of a *Woman in 1950s garb, moving very quickly on the 2nd Floor, from one point to another*. However, there has never been any malevolence with the *Activity* and *Lucy* or *Whoever*, is still very much *welcomed*.
Pensacola Sea Monster

The **Pensacola Sea Monster** is a plesiosaur-like creature found in Pensacola, Florida. In a first-person account, Edward Brian McCleary claimed to have had a terrifying experience on March 24, 1962 off Pensacola, Florida. McCleary and four friends paddled a life raft out to dive on a wrecked ship. A sudden storm came up, forcing them away from land.

At night, a fog closed in on them. In the fog, they hear something moving, and then saw what looked momentarily like a “like a telephone pole about ten feet high with a bulb on top” in the fog. The object was, however, a plesiosaur-like animal. More specifically, “The neck was about 12 feet long, brownish-green and smooth looking. The head was like that of a sea-turtle, except more elongated with teeth. There appeared to be what looked like a dorsal fin when it dove under for the last time. Also, as best I am able to recall, the eyes were green with oval pupils.” This creature proceeded to kill McCleary’s companions one by one. McCleary alone managed to make it to a protruding mast of the wreck they were diving (the U.S.S. Massachusetts), where he clung until daylight.

The Massachusetts sits today in only 26 feet of water in the Fort Pickens State Aquatic Preserve, with portions of the ship still protruding from the sea. McCleary still lives in Florida, though he apparently has not spoken on the subject of the attack since his article came out. The deaths are real, too, and McCleary did report them, but the Coast Guard found nothing more than a tragic episode of accidental drowning. What are we to make of this? It's very hard to take seriously even if, as some researchers (myself included) believe, there might still be a huge eel or other creature behind some sea serpent stories, The plesiosaur-like creature striking its victims from the fog sounds like a scene from a bad horror movie. The very plesiosaur-like sketch McCleary made of his creature shows the head joined to the neck at an odd 90-degree angle, and McCleary does not explain by what light he saw enough to describe his creature.

So I'm afraid we have to write this tale off. The sea serpent is the most romantic (in the Victorian sense) of legendary creatures, and no one wants to let go of it, but no one can catch hold of it, either. Fortunately, the animals the DO inhabit the oceans are spectacular and curious enough for anyone.
Griddle Greaser Pete

**Griddle Greaser Pete** a fine flapjack he did make, on bacon he did skate!” - it’s a far lesser known short yearn about a wee Pig-man that Paul Bunyan found, stapled bacon to its feet & made skate atop of his gigantic stovetop Pancake griddle.

## Story

This ones dark for a couple of reasons (aside from the obvious implied potential cannibalism) - the original “griddle greasers” that where said to have helped Paul Bunyan also known as “flunkies” where unfortunately ‘products of their time.’ I Cannot say with 100% certainty, but given the date of publication (this came a while after.) I like to think Greaser Pete was perhaps an effort at steering away from that sorry bit of folklore? (Perhaps not.) Fortunately: folklore does change over time and Paul’s gigantic griddle eventually did become popular as a skating rink for all

“Fine griddle cakes,” said the stranger, as he filled up his plate with another stack. "Ever’time I eat griddle cakes, though. I get kind of lonesome for the West, where I knocked around when I was a young fellow. I get to thinkin’ of my cow-punchin’ friend and his Griddlegreaser Pete.”

“Griddlegreaser Pete?” asked the old guide, who had been filling the stranger full of queer yarns the entire evening before. “Well, now that’s a queer name. Who might he be?”

“He was a cross between a pig and goodness-knows-what. My friend found him when wanderin’ around the ranch one day, and he trained, him and put him to work.”

“You see, my friend was a big fellow, even for out West where men are men. And as big as my friend was, his appetite for griddle cakes was bigger. He ate them down so fast it would make you dizzy.”

“He had a special-made griddle so’s he could fry a whole stack of his fav’rite cakes at once. And that’s where the animal came in. My friend fastened a slab of bacon to each of his hind feet and taught him to go skating over the griddle, so’s to grease it up right. When he’d gone all over the griddle—and he could do it in less time than it takes me to tell you—he would rest in a cool corner until the batch of cakes had been fried. Then he’d hop onto the griddle and set to work again.”
Buried Alive Model

**Buried Alive Model** is a *Pokémon* in replaced in *Buried Alive* Creepypasta often referred to as its code, the Buryman script — was to be found on the final story of the Pokémon Tower, in what has now been replaced with the Marowak ghost. According to the scripts assigned to it, the Buried Alive model was intended to be the "boss" of the tower. Once reaching the top floor, the following conversation would have taken place.

## Story

often referred to as its code, the Buryman script — was to be found on the final story of the Pokémon Tower, in what has now been replaced with the Marowak ghost. According to the scripts assigned to it, the Buried Alive model was intended to be the "boss" of the tower. Once reaching the top floor, the following conversation would have taken place.

> Buried Alive: You're... Here.
>
>
> BA: I'm trapped...
> BA: And I'm lonely...
> BA: So very lonely...
>
>
>
> BA: Won't you join me?
>
>

After this, the battle would have been initiated. Once in "battle view", the Buried Alive model appears to be a decaying human corpse attempting to crawl out of the ground. It has been programmed to have two White Hands, a Gengar, and a Muk.

Strangely enough, a protocol for the Buried Alive's actions after it was defeated were not written.

In the case of the player defeating him, the game would freeze. However, a specific ending was written by an unknown programmer upon losing the battle. In this ending, the Buried Alive was to have stated, "Finally, fresh meat!" followed by several lines of gibberish.

He was to have then dragged the player character into the ground surrounding him. The scene would finish with a typical "Game Over" screen; however, in the background, an image of the Buried Alive character devouring the player was to have been shown.

Especially strange are the protocols for after this scene. The cartridge was to download this image to the small internal memory contained in the Game Boy, overwriting the title screen that normally accompanied a Game Boy turning on. Instead, whenever it was started, the player would view this image as the sound file staticmesh.wav was played.

The intended purpose for this effect, unlike many of the other factors leading towards Lavender Town Syndrome, is unknown.
Dechmont Woods Incident

**Dechmont Woods Incident** is a UFO sighting claims of sighting an extraterrestrial spacecraft on Dechmont Law in Livingston, West Lothian, Scotland in 1979 by forester Robert "Bob" Taylor (1919–2007).

When Taylor returned home from a trip to Dechmont Law dishevelled, his clothes torn and with grazes to his chin and thighs, he claimed he had encountered a "flying dome" which tried to pull him aboard. Due to his injuries, the police recorded the matter as a common assault and the incident is popularly promoted as the "only example of an alien sighting becoming the subject of a criminal investigation".

## Sighting

According to Taylor, a forestry worker for the Livingston Development Corporation, on 9 November 1979, he parked his pickup truck at the side of a road near the M8 motorway and walked along a forest path up the side of Dechmont Law with his dog.

Taylor reported seeing what he described as a "flying dome" or a large, circular sphere approximately 7 yards (6.4 m; 21 ft) in diameter, hovering above the forest floor in a clearing about 530 yards (1,590 ft; 480 m) away from his truck. Taylor described the object as "a dark metallic material with a rough texture like sandpaper" featuring an outer rim "set with small propellers".

Taylor claims he experienced a foul odour "like burning brakes" and that smaller spheres "similar to sea mines" had seized him and were dragging him in the direction of the larger object when he lost consciousness. According to Taylor, he later awoke and the objects were gone, but he could not start his truck, so he walked back to his home in Livingston.

Taylor's wife reported that when he arrived home on foot, he appeared dishevelled and muddy with torn clothing and ripped trousers. His wife called the police and a doctor, who treated him for grazes to his chin and thighs. Police accompanied Taylor to the site where he claimed he received his injuries. They found "ladder-shaped marks" in the ground where Taylor said he saw the large spherical object and other marks that Taylor said were made by the smaller, mine-like objects. Police recorded the matter as a criminal assault.

The story drew attention from ufologists, who erected a plaque on the site of the alleged encounter, and Taylor became notable among UFO enthusiasts for being involved in the only UFO sighting that was subject to a criminal investigation.[1][2 Ufologist and author Malcolm Robinson accepts Taylor's story, saying he believes "it could be one of the few genuine cases of a UFO encounter".
Green Lady of Wahiawa Park

The **Green Lady of Wahiawa Park** is a urban legend who would visit the gulch of Wahiawa, Hawaii which also contains the Wahiawa Botanical Garden, with her children. One day while visiting one of her children became lost and was never found. The story goes that she still wanders the gulch looking for her child, or children, and will take any child that she comes across in the gulch.

There have been several reports of seeing a green woman covered in moss or mold wandering the gulch. Others say that the green woman closely resembles that of a Japanese mythological creature called the kappa.

This creature is said to resemble a turtle-like humanoid that steals children to feast upon. The last known sighting was said to have happened in the mid to late 1980s. In modern times, children and teenagers dare each other to run across the bridge that runs over the gulch at night. Most speculators say that this story was made up to keep children from wandering into the gulch by themselves.

## Description

Wahiawa is a Wilderness Area located on Hawaii (US) Oahu Island. Almost 3-miles is total, the lush Jungle landscape is dotted with trails – just the thing for the many hundreds of Tourists to who there to enjoy the scenery.

One can also *enjoy* an Urban Legend about *The Green Lady*. *Her* tale is disputed regarding it's age. Some say hundreds of years while others – perhaps only 50 odd. It is said *The Lady* like to take Her children there to walk, until one day they disappeared. It is unclear if the act was foul play or they simply wandered off, became lost and were never found in the dense and often confusing terrain. Many people tried in vain to locate them. The loss was too much much for their Mother, who would soon take Her own life.

As it goes, *The Lady* (who as it goes, liked the color Green), is still said to be *seen* – wandering the trails searching for Her Children. In a variation, *The Lady* is somewhat malevolent. Unable to find Her own children, She will try and *steal* another Mother's kids. In The Region several *Missing Children cases were filed with Police, but as stated – it is easy to become lost and succumb to the perils of Nature (falls, dehydration etc.).....or perhaps* The Green Lady.
Vrykolakas

**Vrykolakas** is an evil undead creature called the Vrykolakas, said to be a type of vampire. If a Vrykolakas knocks on your door and you greet it you will be soon to die in Greece.

## Legend

The undead have always been a feature of folklore around the world. Different cultures have their own versions of vampire-like creatures, each with unique characteristics. One such creature that stands out is the Greek Vrykolakas.

Unlike traditional vampires, becoming a Vrykolakas doesn't involve being bitten. It is believed that living a sacrilegious life, being excommunicated, or being buried in unholy ground can make one susceptible to becoming an undead. You can also become a Vrykolakas by eating mutton that has been previously consumed by a werewolf.

Contrary to the vampire myth of turning others into vampires through bites, the Vrykolakas spreads death through disease. If a Vrykolakas was seen roaming a town, it would indicate mortal peril. To lure victims, it would knock on doors, and once the door was opened, the person would soon die. To this day, in certain areas of Greece, it is common practice to wait for a second knock before opening the door. Not all Vrykolakas had the intention of killing everyone they encountered, however. Some were souls seeking to fulfill unfinished business, often due to their unfortunate or violent deaths.

One notable Vrykolakas was called Patino. He was a merchant from Patmos who died during a trip to Natolia but was somehow revived. He began terrorizing the town, assaulting people, damaging property, and causing chaos. Despite attempts at exorcism and increased prayers, Patino remained unaffected. Eventually, the villagers exhumed his body and sent it back to Natolia. During the journey, the terrified sailors decided to burn the corpse, which put a stop to the wrath of Patino.

Another story involves Demostratus and Charito's daughter, Philinnon, who died at a young age. Around six months after her death, a strange woman was seen entering the living quarters of a young guest named Machates. Confused, Charito questioned Machates about the visitor, only to discover that the girl's name was Philinnon. Machates showed them her belongings—a breast band and a ring—which the parents recognized as their deceased daughter's. The next night, Philinnon returned to Machates' room. Desperate to see their daughter, the couple rushed in, but she regarded them coldly and explained that she had been given three days to visit him before dying again due to their interruption. Before their eyes, her body transformed back into a lifeless corpse. Despite their efforts to keep her return a secret, the discovery spread, and her burial vault was investigated. The grave contained several items from Machates but no body.

Bara-Hack

**Bara-Hack** was a village that received the nickname "the village of voices". In the northeastern part of the state of Connecticut, near the town of Pomfret, there are the remains today, the place is only cellar holes, a cemetery and stone walls, but visitors say that life has not completely disappeared from Bara-Hack. Ghostly manifestations are most pronounced precisely in the form of unknown voices and other sounds.

## History

Bara-Hack means "breaking bread" in Welsh, and the settlement was founded in 1790 by Jonathan Randall and Obadiah Higgenbotham, who arrived with their families and settled in the woods of Connecticut. Higgenbotham established a mill that was a successful form of business until the end of the Civil War. Soon after the village was founded, however, ghost stories began to circulate. The first reports came from Randall's slaves. They are said to have seen the spirit of a small child and other deceased in the elm right next to the cemetery. However, after 100 years, the settlement was finally abandoned in 1890, since then it has been falling into disrepair. However, as it seems to this day, the past still lives on among its foundations.

Even years later, passers-by still heard voices and sounds as if someone still lived in the village, even though it had been abandoned for years. The laughter of children, the barking of dogs, the torment of cows and the sounds of wagons still echoed intensely from the place. In the aforementioned elm tree near the cemetery, some also saw the ghost of a bearded man and a child. Professor Odell Shepard visited the site in 1927, after which he wrote: "Though there are no people living far and wide, and there are occasional visitors, there is still an impression of active life... It seems as if the sounds come here from behind incomprehensible corner, passing through that mysterious soundproof wall we call Time."

In 1970, investigator Paul Eno went to the village with a group of students. Witnesses described apparitions of ghosts, a bearded face floating in the air, and they also allegedly spotted a child in a tree. They all also heard the sounds of the village, even though the place was deserted except for themselves. At first Eno thought that these phenomena came from earthly spirits, but he gradually changed his mind. In this case, he argued, "the answer lies more in quantum physics and the nature of time itself, which may be more vast and mysterious than we have so far imagined."

Bara-Hack could therefore also be a "thin place" according to the original Indian tribes, where our time intersects with other worlds. In other words, a village may be dead in our dimension, but still actively functioning in another. This place remains a mystery to this day. However, entry to it is prohibited and it is necessary to obtain a permit. Investigators and visitors still hear unfamiliar sounds and some see ghostly figures, especially around the old cemetery.
