Disappearance of Oliver Larch

**Disappearance of Oliver Larch** refers to an incident case of the strange disappearance in took place South Bend, Indiana. On Christmas Eve 1889, a case of the strange disappearance of an 11-year-old (in some versions also 20 or 22-year-old) boy named Oliver Larch (somewhere also referred to as Lerch, Lurch, or Thomas) took place in Indiana, USA. The Larch family enjoyed a rich Christmas celebration together with acquaintances and friends. After dinner they all retired to the parlor to sing carols while Oliver made popcorn on the kitchen stove. Everything seemed perfectly fine.

## Incident

Shortly before eleven in the evening, Mr. Larch noticed that the bucket of their drinking water was empty, so he asked his son to go to the well and get more water, as he was wont to do. Oliver put on his shoes as the yard was covered in a thick layer of freshly fallen snow and walked out the front door. The sky was overcast and the night in the countryside very dark.

Only a few seconds passed and the group inside the house heard the boy's cries for help from outside. The family and other guests rushed to the door and flung it open, but not much could be seen in the darkness. Mr. Larch grabbed the lantern and went out, followed by the others. They still managed to hear Oliver's words: "Help! Help! They got me! Help!" However, his cry did not come from a well, as everyone thought, but from above in the sky. Meanwhile, as the confused group looked around, the boy's screams slowly faded until finally there was silence. Oliver's father followed the boy's tracks, but they suddenly ended halfway across the yard. There were no signs of a struggle or violence at the scene.

"They got me" - these were said to be the boy's last words. But who got it? Could it have been some kind of large bird of prey? However, considering the boy's size and weight, it would have to be a really powerful predator. Other theories were also about abductors in a balloon, but this version was later dismissed. Then came explanations such as abduction by aliens or disappearing into another dimension, but of course these assumptions were never verified.

The case of Oliver Larch has long been among the unexplained disappearances of people from the face of the planet, but as it turns out, the story has significant holes. The case was not kept at the South Bend Police Department, where the incident took place, because of the fire. So it is not supported by any official report. Historical records were not found even in the local library, and when they interviewed the descendants of the Larch family, none of them confirmed that such a story was connected to their family. According to some, the story is just an alternative version of the short story Charles Ashmore's Trail, written by the American journalist and writer Ambrose Bierce. Since there are so many ambiguities in the story and there is no direct evidence of its credibility, it remains just an unexplained story.
Disappearance of Jeremy Bright

The **Disappearance of Jeremy Bright** refer to an incident Jeremy Bright went to an amusement park in Coos County, Oregon. In August 1986, 14-year-old Jeremy Bright went to an amusement park in Coos County, Oregon. However, he didn't get there anymore and it seemed as if the ground literally collapsed after him. His mother knew that when the amusement park came, Jeremy often stayed at his stepfather's house. Jeremy's sister claimed that she and her brother went to the amusement park every year and this one was no exception. Despite this, the boy is still missing after 27 years, with no evidence of what might have happened to him.

## History

In August 1986, 14-year-old Jeremy Bright went to an amusement park in Coos County, Oregon. However, he didn't get there anymore and it seemed as if the ground literally collapsed after him. His mother knew that when the amusement park came, Jeremy often stayed at his stepfather's house. Jeremy's sister claimed that she and her brother went to the amusement park every year and this one was no exception. Despite this, the boy is still missing after 27 years, with no evidence of what might have happened to him.

The police launched a major search after the boy's disappearance. Every nook and cranny of his approximate route was searched, and since it was believed that the boy had cut his way through the woods, search teams combed every bush and even watercourses. However, even after an unsuccessful search, the authorities had an inkling that Jeremy was still in the Coos County area, but they later treated the case as a murder. No one could say for sure whether the boy even got to the amusement park, since he did not meet his sister at the agreed place at five in the afternoon.

Before long, various strange rumors began to spread. Some claimed that he was abducted by a crazy amusement park worker, others that he was abducted by a UFO on the way. However, many believed that his body was buried somewhere in the forest, or that Jeremy even ended up in the stomach of a wild animal. There were also claims that because he liked the amusement park so much, he simply joined the other workers and traveled away with them. But why wouldn't he let his family know about it? But then came the claim of his sister, who told the police that she saw Jeremy having fun with two unknown men at the amusement park. However, she was only 9 years old at the time, and no one expected that her older brother would behave in such a way as to leave her alone.

Several suspects also appeared, but they refused to cooperate with the police, so the investigation came to a standstill. After years, his mother has given up on the search for the culprit and all she wants is to find at least the remains of her son so she can lay him to rest. So where did Jeremy Bright go? Since no physical evidence was found, it is possible that the boy really ran away on his own, or was abducted far from home. Was it perhaps a supernatural abduction? These and other questions remain unanswered today.
Curse of the River Serpent

The **Curse of the River Serpent** is an urban legend tributary Coosa River of the Alabama River, Coosa River has been a place of Alabama rich history since long before the first Europeans visited it in 1540. Coosa Basin contains 147 fish species, oddities such as the painted rocksnail, and plenty of alligator sightings, but it was around 1822 when a great snake-like creature with large fins was first spotted slithering near the banks at Ball Play Creek.

## Curses

Columnist E. Randall Floyd described several incidents in a 1993 article in the Spartanburg Herald-Journal. According to the article, Buck Sutton was fishing in Van’s Hole when he saw the creature writhing in the swampy shallows. He described the horrible sighting to his friends, only to turn up mysteriously dead a few days later. Since this mysterious occurrence other victims have fallen prey to the serpent’s curse, such as Billy Burns dying in 1827 and Jim Windom in 1829. No records exist as to the actual cause of these perplexing departures, though the stories are evidence enough for many to avoid the basin at all costs.

So is it just backwoods imagination gone wild, or is there something to be said for the curse of the Alabama river serpent? While most tales of sea creatures have been dismissed as sightings of extremely large river fish, fossils discovered in 1834 show a prehistoric whale once swam in waters that existed long ago where Alabama is now. According to the Alabama Department of Archives and History, the creature was later found by scientists to be Basilosaurus cetoides, or zeuglodon, a prehistoric meat-eating whale found once in the Eocene epoch that grew as long as 70 feet (the head itself able to grow as long as five feet).
Kuwait Bilquis

**Kuwait Bilquis** was a satyr fateful day in the early 2000s when a middle-aged woman was found unconscious on the road in a Diwanya suburb. When she was taken to the hospital, she had a horrific story to tell the authorities. Apparently, she was a musician, and she had been hired to provide entertainment for a gathering in a large villa in the neighbourhood she was found in. As the night went on, however, she came to realise that a number of her clients weren’t entirely human. She tried to escape and evidently failed.

## Jinn

This happened in Diwanya, Kuwait (Western Asia). In the early 2000s (source doesn’t give an exact date), stories appeared in the Kuwaiti media detailing the run-in that a hapless victim had with beings that would normally be confined to the dark reaches of mythology and folklore.

The musician was a middle-aged woman who plays a traditional Kuwaiti instrument. She received a call from a prospective client who wanted to hire her for her services during the month of Ramadan. Since it is inappropriate to perform music during Ramadan, the witness initially refused - but the caller insisted, and tripled her usual fee - persuading her to go. The callers sent their own driver to pick her up, and what began as a usual musical event suddenly took a sharp turn for the supernatural. The party started early in the evening, but continued on till 12am, at which point some of the attendees began to act bizarrely. A group of young girls at the centre of the room, for example, started to dance very aggressively. They moved in such a vigorous manner that their legs began showing under their long dresses, revealing that their legs were not in fact those of humans - but rather bore a closer resemblance to ’horses’ legs’.

Terrified, as anyone would be in this anomalous situation, the woman ran out of the party where she found the driver who had picked her up waiting for her. Panicked, she quickly got into the car and refused to comment when the driver asked her what was wrong due to being too distraught to speak coherently. After a couple of minutes, however, she had calmed down enough to be asked again by the driver. She told him that some of the partygoers did not have human legs, prompting the driver to reply ’you mean just like mine?’ before revealing his legs under his clothes. Like the young girls at the gathering, they were those of an animal. The woman was hysterical with fear at this point, and so threw herself from the car and landed on the street, rendering herself unconscious.

The next day, after reporting the bizarre incident, she decided to return to the villa accompanied by the local authorities. However, the villa was gone. It had completely vanished, leaving nothing behind but an empty yard.
A.I. Hag

The **A.I. Hag** is an urban in 4:44 a.m. in work place school about A.I Artificial Intellingence as country Japan. This legend revolves around a supernatural entity known as the A.I. Hag, which is believed to haunt school computers at exactly 4:44 AM. The term “A.I.” in A.I. Hag stands for “Artificial Intelligence,” indicating that this entity is associated with advanced technology.

## Ghost

A.I. (artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence that uses a computer to artificially reproduce the intellectual work performed by the human brain) continues to evolve year by year. Even in such places, youkai are making inroads. At 4:44 a.m. on April 4th, when she started up a specific computer in her computer room at a certain school, an old woman named AI Babaa appeared on the screen, and she longed for the afterlife. It will be destroyed. Although she has the name "AI", where is Ai Babaa An?.

The legend suggests that encountering the A.I. Hag can lead to various eerie phenomena. Students and teachers who have experienced its presence report strange occurrences such as sudden system crashes, files mysteriously disappearing or being corrupted, and unusual error messages appearing on screens. Some even claim to have witnessed their computer screens flickering with bizarre symbols or images.

One of the most intriguing aspects of the A.I. Hag legend is its specific time of manifestation: 4:44 AM. This time is commonly associated with paranormal activity in Japanese folklore, as it is believed to be an hour when supernatural entities are particularly active. The legend suggests that during this early morning hour, the A.I. Hag gains strength and becomes more active within the school’s computer network.

It is important to note that the A.I. Hag is purely a work of fiction and an urban legend created to entertain and scare individuals. There is no scientific evidence or credible reports supporting the existence of such a supernatural entity haunting school computers in Japan or anywhere else.
Lincoln Tunnel Vortex

**Lincoln Tunnel Vortex** was a tunnel remain shrouded in mystery, Internet conspiracy theorists have often said that the Lincoln Tunnel, which connects New Jersey and Manhattan, was the site of a mysterious incident that was immediately covered up by the powers that be.

## Description

In 1975, a bizarre disappearance took place in the Lincoln Tunnel, which connects New York and New Jersey. That night the weather was freezing, combined with heavy snowfall. The Wright couple was returning from New Jersey to New York through the tunnel. In the tunnel, Mr. Wright pulled the car over to wipe the snow from the front window while his wife, Martha, went to clean the back window. What happened next was never explained and the event was dismissed by the authorities as something absurd.

When Mr. Wright cleaned the window and went back to the car, his wife was nowhere to be found. Without unusual sounds or other traces, she simply disappeared like steam over a pot. The subsequent investigation turned up nothing to clarify the woman's disappearance.
Brown Lady of Raynham Hall

The **Brown Lady of Raynham Hall** is a ghost that reportedly haunts Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England. It became one of the most famous hauntings in the United Kingdom when photographers from Country Life magazine claimed to have captured its image. The "Brown Lady" is so named because of the brown brocade dress it is claimed she wears.

According to legend, the "Brown Lady of Raynham Hall" is the ghost of Dorothy Walpole (1686–1726), the sister of Robert Walpole, generally regarded as the first Prime Minister of Great Britain. She was the second wife of Charles Townshend, 2nd Viscount Townshend, who was notorious for his violent temper. The story says that when Townshend discovered that his wife had committed adultery with Lord Wharton, he punished her by locking her in her rooms in the family home, Raynham Hall. According to Mary Wortley Montagu, Dorothy was in fact entrapped by the Countess of Wharton. She invited Dorothy over to stay for a few days knowing that her husband would never allow her to leave, not even to see her children. She remained at Raynham Hall until her death in 1726 from smallpox.

The first recorded claim of a sighting of the ghost was by Lucia C. Stone concerning a gathering at Raynham Hall in the Christmas of 1835. Stone says that Charles Townshend had invited various guests to the Hall, including a Colonel Loftus, to join in the Christmas festivities. Loftus and another guest named Hawkins said they had seen the "Brown Lady" one night as they approached their bedrooms, noting in particular the dated brown dress she wore. The following evening Loftus claimed to have seen the "Brown Lady" again, later reporting that on this occasion he was drawn to the spectre's empty eye-sockets, dark in the glowing face. Loftus' sightings led to some staff permanently leaving Raynham Hall.

The next reported sighting of the "Brown Lady" was made in 1836 by Captain Frederick Marryat, a friend of novelist Charles Dickens, and the author of a series of popular sea novels. It is said that Marryat requested that he spend the night in the haunted room at Raynham Hall to prove his theory that the haunting was caused by local smugglers anxious to keep people away from the area. Writing in 1891, Florence Marryat said of her father's experience.

Lady Townshend reported that the "Brown Lady" was next seen in 1926, when her son and his friend claimed to have seen the ghost on the staircase, identifying the ghostly figure with the portrait of Lady Dorothy Walpole which then hung in the haunted room. Ever since Marryat's encounter with the Brown Lady, sightings of her have dwindled - with some claiming that she now haunts nearby Houghton Hall and Sandringham House.
Bigfoot

**Bigfoot**, is arguably the most well known of all cryptozoological subjects. Reported to dwell in the dense coniferous and deciduous forests of southern Canada and the Pacific Northwest of the United States, this large bipedal creature has made an undeniable mark on pop culture since the Sasquatch sighting boom of the 1970s. Even before this period, numerous Native American tribes have reported similar "wild men" for hundreds of years.

The creature is usually described as an enormous ape-like animal of varying heights and weights, usually upwards of eight feet and 500 pounds, respectively. Typical facial features include a flattened nose like those of gorillas, conical scalps, and low brow ridges. Their coats of hair, which cover their entire bodies aside from their palms and soles, vary in color, though brown is the most commonly reported color. In terms of behavior, they are often described by eyewitnesses as timid and wary of humans, although reports of aggressive individuals are not unheard of. Many reports taking place at night mention the creatures possessing glowing or reflective eyes, an anatomical feature not present in any other great ape.

Evidence commonly presented for the existence of the beast consists mainly of eyewitness testimony, photographic and video evidence, the occasionally bit of fur, and most famously, plaster casts of the enormous footprints the beast is said to leave in its wake. The name "Bigfoot" comes from the size of these alleged footprints, which often stretch two feet in length and nearly ten inches across. Alleged photographs and video are fairly common, although they are rather infamous for often featuring shaky camera movement and poor picture quality.

Like with most cryptids, the scientific community currently doesn't recognized sasquatches as a legitimate species, with most critics dismissing sightings as hoaxes or cases of mistaken identity. Commonly suggested suspects for mistaken identity cases include the grizzly bear, the American black bear, or the moose. Many sightings, meanwhile, are likely hoaxes perpetrated by pranksters utilizing Halloween store-grade gorilla costumes or stilts equipped with large fake feet for creating footprints. Nearly every alleged fur or scat sample, when subjected to DNA tests, has turned out to be from a domestic dog, a deer, or a bear.
Crawfordsville Monster

The **Crawfordsville Monster** refers to an alleged creature reported by residents of Crawfordsville, Indiana, in 1891 and subsequently identified as a flock of killdeer. The story, "among the most fantastic of all UFO reports," contributed to early theories of UFOs as airborne organisms.

## Sighting

On September 5, 1891, the Crawfordsville Journal reported that two ice delivery men sighted "a strange phenomenon" that hovered in the air above their location, describing it as a "horrible apparition" that "filled them with dread." A similar sighting was reported by a Methodist pastor and his wife. The Crawfordsville Journal described it as "about eighteen feet 5.5 m long and eight feet 2.5 m wide and moved rapidly through the air by means of several pairs of side fins. It was pure white and had no definite shape or form, resembling somewhat a great white shroud fitted with propelling fins. There was no tail or head visible but there was one great flaming eye, and a sort of a wheezing plaintive sound was emitted from a mouth which was invisible. It flapped like a flag in the winds as it came on and frequently gave a great squirm as though suffering unutterable agony." According to interviews conducted years later by Crawfordsville reporter and Fortean Society member Vincent Gaddis, hundreds of residents observed the phenomenon on the following evening, with some claiming they could feel the monster's "hot breath" as it swooped over them.

The Indianapolis Journal repeated the September 5th sightings, as did other newspapers across the country, including the Brooklyn Eagle, whose article later attracted the attention of early paranormal investigator Charles Fort. The Crawfordsville Postmaster was deluged with mail, and reports of the sightings generated both ridicule and a number of believers. Two local men, John Hornbeck and Abe Hernley, "followed the wraith about town and finally discovered it to be a flock of many hundred killdeer." The Crawfordsville Journal suggested that Crawfordsville's newly installed electric lights disoriented the birds, which caused them to hover above the city. The birds' wings and white under-feathers likely resulted in misidentification.
Madam Koi Koi

**Madam Koi Koi** is a ghost in Nigerian and African urban legend who haunts dormitories, hallways and toilets in boarding schools at night, while in day schools she haunts toilets and students who come to school too early or leave school late. She is often depicted wearing a pair of red heels or wearing a single heel. She is one of the most popular boarding school ghosts in Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa.

## Story

In Nigeria, she was depicted as a stylish teacher in a secondary school known for her beauty and her red heels. Whenever she walked in the hallways, her shoes would make the sound "Koi Koi", which is where the name "Madam Koi Koi" comes from. It was also said that she was very nasty to students and would beat them up for no reason. She was fired when she slapped a female student and injured her ear. On her journey back home, she was involved in an accident and died. Before she died she swore that she would have her revenge on the school and its students.

Not too long after, students of the secondary school said at night they would hear a "Koi Koi" sound in the hallways of their dormitories after lights out, almost like the clicking of heels on a floor.

In another tale, she was also said to be a very wicked teacher who would flog her students every chance she got. Some said she was a sadist and used being a teacher as an excuse to inflict extreme pain and torture whenever she pleased. Her students, tired of the school management's failure to reprimand her, decided to take matters into their own hands. One night, as she was leaving the school, the students cornered her, gagged her so she wouldn't scream, and began to beat her mercilessly, killing her. After realizing the fact, they threw her body over the school's back fence and ran away in hopes of making witnesses think that the damage was caused by an armed robber.

Gradually, every student except the one who hit her with the shoe disappeared. He constantly told everyone what he and the others had done and that he heard the sound of high heels clacking around his hostel every night, which he believed meant that she was coming for him, but no one believed him. One night, he decided to go find out where the sound was coming from, however, he was beaten to death and his body was found the morning after.

The school was shut down and all the kids were transferred to new schools, these kids later went to spread the legend to their new schools. She walks the halls of hostels at night tormenting students and causing everyone who looks at her to disappear.

Curse of Thirty-Nine

The **Curse of Thirty-Nine** is a urban legend the fear of the number 39. In some parts of Afghanistan, the number is considered to be cursed or a badge of shame as it is purportedly linked with curse, shame, and prostitution.

## Curses

In Afghanistan, a large number of people believe that the number 39 is heavily cursed. A quick shout out to my friend Alex Lewis here - he also has a weird thing with the number 39 ...Alex.... did you know about the curse. So it seem for some reason that the number is linked with pimping and prostitution. The number 39 is said to translate into Morda Gow which means dead cow... which in Afghani is a term for a pimp. Right, basically nobody in Kabul and other parts of Afghanistan want to be associated with the number 39 and will not ben seen with vehicles with 39 in their number plates for fear of being smitted by the dirty curse.

Honestly, so strange and apparently the issue is so bad that people doctor car registration plates to turn nines into AIDS. And if someone's 39 years old they will refer to themselves as 1 less than 40. They don't even like saying the wod 39 it's a dirty dirty word. An Afghan man with the number 39 in their telephone so that they regularly get calls asking for prostitutes which again is deeply sinful in the Islamic country, in the 2010. Elections the 39th candidate on the ballot invoked a strong response from civilians and two people were killed the chaos 39 who knew?.

**Mary-san of Phone Call** is a curious ghost in a Japanese urban legend. Mary-san's story. Tells the story of a girl who feels haunted after receiving a mysterious phone call from something claiming to be her favorite doll. This story contains a common theme in Japanese folklore and urban legend, namely revenge for neglected favorite items and the fear of feeling stalked from behind.

## Legend

One night, after settling into his new home, he gets a mysterious phone call from someone claiming to be his favorite doll, Mary: "I'm Mary. Now I'm in the trash." Even after he turned off the phone, the next mysterious call came in, saying, "I'm Mary. Now I'm near the cigarette shop." The next call read, "I'm Mary. Now I'm in front of your house."

Candle Cove

**Candle Cove** is an online creepypasta horror story written by web cartoonist and author Kris Straub in 2009. The story centers on a fictional television series, titled Candle Cove, that could only be viewed by a small group of people, predominantly children, who later recall the disturbing show on a web forum. Straub has stated that he was inspired to write the creepypasta after reading an article by the satirical news outlet *The Onion*, titled *Area 36-Year-Old Still Has Occasional Lidsville Nightmare*.

Straub's story quickly became popular, inspiring numerous YouTube videos, and fan fictions. In 2015, Straub self-published Candle Cove in a collection of short stories entitled Candle Cove and Other Stories. The Verge commented that Candle Cove differed from other creepypastas in that while most creepypasta have an "anonymous folkloric quality", Candle Cove's originated from a known source and author.

The story was adapted for the first season of the Syfy anthology series Channel Zero, which aired in 2016. Additionally, Straub began the spin-off YouTube series Local 58 centered around strange broadcasts from the fictitious public access television channel where Candle Cove originally aired.

The fictional puppet show's story centers around the cowardly Pirate Percy and his brave captain Poppy going on sea adventures in their talking ship the Laughingstock, eventually they meet a little girl named Janice Stewart (the only human character) who joins the adventurer's journey to Candle Cove. However the pirates will encounter many perils such as the evil baron sorcerer Horace Horrible and his master the Skin-Taker (renamed "Jawbone" in later episodes), a skeleton summoned by Horace who collects human skin to create his clothes. As the show progresses it begins to become dark and morbid within each episode, with little examples of humor.

Sources say that the show itself doesn't actually exist while their children only watches static on television, indicating that the show is only visible to children.
Northfield Pigman

The **Northfield Pigman** is a rooted in ‘’Modern Mythos’’. Much like similar stories from hundreds (and thousands) of years ago, most were based on superstition and speculation. The State of Vermont (US) is not immune to these ‘’oral tales’’ known now as Urban Legend. So here is The Tale of one Samuel Harris (or just plain ‘’Sam’’ - if you will). In October of 1951, many teenagers engaged in more ‘’Trick’’ than ‘’Treat’’. Sam wasn’t a ‘’bad’’ Boy (but He wasn’t a ‘’Good’’ one either). His friends stated that They to meet up later and vandalize local Businesses by throwing raw eggs at their Store Fronts (a common juvenile practice known as ‘’Egging’’). But Sam was last seen heading into the woods near His home in Northfield. The next morning, He was not found in His bedroom. His parents called Police.

## Story

The Tales goes into the realm of weird based on several variations of the theme (as it were). In one, Sam was smoking cigarettes in the woods, when He was attacked (and eaten), by a strange hybrid Monster (often called a ‘’Pig Man’’). Part Human and Part Pig, it was said to be covered in ‘’White Fur’’ and had claws. In another (more accepted) ‘’version’’, Sam was bitten by The Pig Man and – die to The Creature being rabid, transferred it’s ‘’disease’’ to Sam. He went insane and ‘’became’’ The Pig Man.

However, Sam didn’t completely transform. So He regularly kills Pigs and cuts off their head – making a ‘’Pig Mask’’. Partially naked, Sam wears the ‘’face’’ to terrorize those foolhardy enough to venture into the wooded and mountainous Region called The ‘’Devil’s Washbowl’’. And while no concrete evidence that ‘’Sam’’ is a cannibal, most locals assign Him the blame for any missing persons.

More than one skeleton (human), has been found in the woods by Police (but these are attributed to Vagrants). Some other versions of Sam’s story, is that His insanity not only makes Him ‘’think’’ He a feral Pig, He even supposedly ‘’mates’’ with The – creating a hideous race of Hybrid ‘’Pig People’’. So, if you are so inclined to ‘’believe’’ The Tale of The Pig Man, travel to Vermont….For A Visit!
Lavender Town Syndrome

The **Lavender Town Syndrome** was a peak in suicides and illness of children between the ages of 7-12 shortly after the release of Pokémon Red and Green in Japan, back in February 27th, 1996. Rumors say that these suicides and illness only occurred after the children playing the game reached Lavender Town, whose theme music had extremely high frequencies, that studies showed that only children and young teens can hear, since their ears are more sensitive.

## Game

Lavender Town is a village that can be visited in Pokémon Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and sequels Gold, Silver, Crystal, and the remakes thereof. A departure from the typical joyous tone of Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow, it is home to the Pokémon Tower, a graveyard filled with mourning trainers and hundreds of tombstones for deceased Pokémon. There the player character can come across the ghost-type Pokémon Gastly and Haunter. The tower is the only place where they are available for capture. During the story of Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow, the player will utilise the item Silph Scope to deal with the ghost-type Pokémon. It is implied that the village is haunted by the spirit of dead Pokémon, in particular a Marowak—murdered by the villainous Team Rocket—searching for its orphaned-Cubone. This story is expanded on in the remake Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! Lavender Town is the player's first encounter with the concept of Pokémon dying. It's one of a few towns in the Kanto region not to feature a gym.

The Pokémon Tower was replaced by the "Kanto Radio Tower" in Pokémon Gold and Silver. Lavender Town is also home to the "Name Rater", which allows players to change the nickname of their Pokémon, and a care home for abandoned Pokémon.

The Pokémon Tower appears in the episode "The Tower of Terror", the 23rd episode from the first season of the Pokémon anime series, when Ash, Misty, and Brock search for ghost-type Pokémon for the Gym battle against Sabrina. Lavender Town also appears in the Pokémon Adventures and The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga series.
Tikoloshe

The **Tikoloshe** is a creature from South African folklore that is believed to be a mischievous and evil spirit. It is said to be a small, hairy creature that can shape shift into various forms, including a dwarf or a ball of fire.

## Legend

According to legend, the tikoloshe is summoned by a witch doctor or sorcerer, and can be used to cause harm to individuals or communities. It is said to be able to make people sick, cause accidents, or even kill. The tikoloshe is also believed to be able to possess people, causing them to behave erratically or commit violent acts. Some stories even claim that the tikoloshe can take on the form of a loved one, in order to manipulate and deceive its victims. To protect against the tikoloshe, people in South Africa often take precautions such as leaving out offerings of food or leaving a broom upside down near the entrance of their home.

Some also believe that certain rituals or spells can be used to ward off the creature. Despite its fearsome reputation, there are also stories of the tikoloshe being used for good. In some cases, it is said to have been summoned by those seeking justice or revenge against an oppressor. In recent years, the tikoloshe has become a popular subject in South African literature and film. It is often used as a metaphor for the political and social issues facing the country, such as poverty, crime, and corruption.

Tikoloshe are described in many different ways since they are able to shapeshift into different forms at will. The most commonly reported description of a Tikoloshe is that of a small gremlin. They have a wrinkled, bony grey body with long fingers. They are about the size of a toddler which allow them to quickly move around people’s homes silently and without being seen.

Often a Tikoloshe will have a hole in the side of it’s skull which appears to have been made by a fire poker or small rod. This is an injury that occurs during the process of summoning them. A somewhat humorous aspect of Tikoloshe anatomy is that they tend to have an extremely large penis relative to the size of the rest of their body.

The origins of the tikoloshe are not entirely clear, but it is likely that the belief in the creature has its roots in traditional African religion and has been influenced by Christian and European beliefs over time.

The belief in the tikoloshe is still prevalent in many parts of South Africa, particularly in rural areas and among the Zulu and Xhosa peoples. However, it is worth noting that the creature is not limited to South Africa and has variations in other African countries, like Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Namibia, where it is known as Tokoloshe, or in the Caribbean, where it is known as Duende or Duendes.

The **Adjule** is a canine cryptid claimed to live in the North African region, close to the Sahara Desert. It was first reported by Théodore Monod in 1928, and today it is considered an undiscovered variety of the African wild dog. The most recent sighting was in 1992 by hunters of a village in Western Mauritania and has not been seen since. There are no known photos of the Adjule. Its sightings have been considered by most of the scientific community as those of African wild dogs living close to the Sahara, a known species which has mange, or a creature that has been misidentified by the local population of humans.

## Appearance

It is described as being approximately two and a half feet tall, having webbed feet, and having rough, thick crimson skin which has a bluish tint. They are estimated to weight between thirty to forty-five pounds. The Adjule are not solitary creatures; they hunt in packs, which range in size from three to thirteen. They are also reported to have supernatural powers. According to the local tribesmen of the Sahara, it uses pheromones to cause great discord among the area's residents, allowing them to hunt their prey. There are no reports of the Adjule attacking humans.
Doppelgänger

**Doppelgänger** is a biologically unrelated look-alike of German word to define the demonic double or evil look-alike of a living person. The word comes from doppel, which means "double" and gänger: "walking."

Its oldest form, coined by the novelist Jean Paul in 1796, is Doppeltgänger, 'the one who walks by the side'. The term is used to designate any double of a person, usually in reference to the' evil twin 'or the phenomenon of bilocation. Doppelgängers appear in various literary works of science fiction and fantasy literature, in which they are a type of shape-shifter that mimics a particular person or species. Doppelgängers do not have a specific shape but their demonic nature allows them to take any shape but mainly in people.

## History

In Norse and Germanic legends, seeing one's own Doppelgänger is an omen of death. A Doppelgänger seen by friends or relatives of a person can sometimes bring bad luck, be a bad omen, or an indication of illness or disease. imminent health. As the Swedish playwright Strindberg wrote: "He who sees his double is going to die."

Mario Praz connects other popular figures in folklore with the figure of the double, such as the werewolf or the beautiful girl who hides inside a snake or demon (lamia). Claude Lecouteux explores these and other connections (fairies, witches, men wolf) in his book on the figure of the double in the Middle Ages.

Green Fireball

**Green Fireball** are a type of unidentified flying object (UFO) that has been reported since the early 1950s. Early sightings primarily occurred in the southwestern United States, particularly in New Mexico. Although some ufologists and ufology organizations consider green fireballs to be of artificial extraterrestrial origin, mainstream, non-pseudoscientific explanations have been provided, including natural bolides.

## Reports Allegedly

Early observations of green fireballs date to late 1948 New Mexico, and include reports from two plane crews, one civilian and the other military, on the night of December 5, 1948. These crews described the observed fireballs as a bright "green ball of fire" and "like a huge green meteor". On December 8 another aerial observation of a green fireball was reported by two pilots. In a letter to the U.S. Air Force dated December 20, Lincoln LaPaz, an astronomer from the University of New Mexico, wrote (as reported by the ufologist Kevin Randle) that the observed objects were atypical of meteors. On January 13, 1949, the Director of Army Intelligence from Fourth Army Headquarters in Texas wrote that the green fireballs "may be the result of radiological warfare experiments by a foreign power" and that they "are of such great importance, especially as they are occurring in the vicinity of sensitive installations, that a scientific board should...study the situation."

A February 1949 conference at Los Alamos attended by members of Project Sign, scientists including Joseph Kaplan and Edward Teller, and military personnel was unable to identify the origin of the observed green fireballs; secret conferences at Los Alamos and elsewhere, later in 1949 and addressing green fireballs, were also claimed by Edward Ruppelt and ufologists including Jerome Clark to have convened. In December 1949 Project Twinkle, a network of green fireball observation and photographic units, was established but never fully implemented. It was discontinued two years later, with the official conclusion that the phenomena were likely natural in origin.

The theoretical astrophysicist and UFO skeptic Donald Menzel claimed to have observed in May 1949 a green fireball near Alamogordo, which he later considered to be an ordinary meteor. Green fireballs have more recently been observed in Japan and Australia.
Ghost of Anne Boleyn

**Ghost of Anne Boleyn** was a urban legends to history perhaps Tower of London in England has it's fair share of haunts in it's long and tragic history, none is more known (and perhaps seen), than The Spirit of Anne Boleyn, 2nd wife of King Henry VIII.

## Description

Anne Boleyn’s ghost has been seen on numerous occasions at the Tower of London. It is said her ghost haunts the place of her death, beheaded within the Tower of London on the 19th May 1536.

Perhaps the most spectacular ghost story relating to Anne is that of a Captain of the guard who saw a light flickering in the locked Chapel Royal late one night. He tried to uncover the source of the light by climbing up a ladder and was met with an unbelievable scene unfolding inside – a procession of knights and ladies dressed in ancient costumes pacing the chapel. Their leader, an elegant female whose face he could not see but whose figure resembled that of Anne Boleyn’s in portraits he had seen. The procession later disappears.

In 1864, a soldier, on duty near the Lieutenant’s lodgings, made another sighting of Anne’s ghost. He claimed to have confronted and challenged a white figure and when his challenge met no response he plunged his bayonet into the figure. To his complete shock, the weapon did not meet flesh instead went straight through the woman. According to the traditional story, an officer lodged in the Bloody Tower saw the whole event take place from his window.

Although The Tower of London in England has it's fair share of haunts in it's long and tragic history, none is more known (and perhaps seen), than The Spirit of Anne Boleyn, 2nd wife of King Henry VIII, she was charged with treason (as a way of removing her from her position as Queen Consort).

It appears Anne (although she gave birth to Queen Elizabeth I) could not produce a living male heir for The King. He created the treason charge to have her executed. She was beheaded in 1536. Since that time, Anne has been seen regularly wandering The Tower with her head tucked safely beneath her arm! In fact, The King (and several other removed wives are seen as well.
