Cryptid: Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp (South Carolina)

This reptilian humanoid cryptid is described as being 7 feet tall, bipedal and having scaly lizard skin, and it’s said to live in the swamplands in Lee County, S.C. The first reported sighting of the creature was in 1988 when 17-year-old Christopher Davis saw the creature running toward him while he was changing a tire beside Scape Ore Swamp. Davis got in his car to escape, but the Lizard Man jumped onto the roof and clung to it as the teen tried to throw it off. When he returned home, Davis found that his side-view mirror was damaged and there were deep scratch marks across the car’s roof.

For the next month, there were further reports of an aggressive lizard-like creature and more reports of unusual scratches and bite marks on cars parked near the swamp. Police were skeptical, but stated that a sufficient number of sightings by reliable people led them to believe that something was being seen — although they thought it was likely a bear. The sheriff’s department made plaster casts of what appeared to be large three-toed footprints to send to the FBI, but decided against sending them after the S.C. Marine Resources Department said they were unclassifiable. Reports of the Lizard Man declined over the next few years, but in 2011 a couple reported that their car had been mauled and the former Lee County sheriff said the damage was similar to the 1988 incidents.

Mystery Hill: America's Stonehenge

Mystery Hill: America's Stonehenge The ancient site's mysterious history is debated by archeologists and conspiracy theorists alike. In the town of Salem, New Hampshire , stand an odd arrangement of rocks and boulders shrouded in mystery. Occupying about 30 acres of land, the history of this enigmatic place is debated by archeologists and conspiracy theorists alike. Some have offered more contemporary and logical explanations, while others are certain that Phoenicians, Vikings, or Celts are responsible for the site. It was once known as Mystery Hill. Nowadays, it is known as America's Stonehenge. In 1907, the location was briefly mentioned in a book titled History of Salem, N.H. It was attributed to a man named Jonathan Pattee, an eccentric farmer who supposedly built his home on the location and lived there through the mid-19th century. In 1939, Hugh O’Neill Hencken, a curator with Harvard University’s Peabody Museum, gave credence to the theory that Pattee once occu...

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS IN THE CAVE PAINTINGS OF TASSILI N’AJJER

ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS IN THE CAVE PAINTINGS OF TASSILI N’AJJER Tassili n’Ajjer (Arabic: plateau of the rivers) seems like an endless stretch of unforgiving desert to the modern traveler. It’s a dry and visually harsh looking area, located in south-east Algeria at the borders of Libya, Niger and Mali. However, that initial analysis is somewhat deceiving. Covering more than 28,000 square miles of the Sahara desert and mainly composed of sandstone, Tassili n’Ajjer holds many secrets which have enamored both the scientific community and alien enthusiasts alike. For hidden in the many caves and crevices in the crumbling rock, is a treasure trove of ancient cave paintings and rock art. Since it’s first discovery in 1910, and later exploration in the 1930’s, scientific teams have been searching the area in earnest. What they discovered on the cave walls, was both amazing and surprising; some say the pictures are factual evidence that earth has been visited by alien astronauts. Regard...

THE STONE ON THE CHAIN (UTRECHT, NETHERLANDS)

THE STONE ON THE CHAIN (UTRECHT, NETHERLANDS) A special story is connected to the Utrecht stone (city in the Netherlands), which is riveted to the corner house of the Eligenhof and the Oudegracht number 364. The large stone was originally placed there to protect the house from damage when towing cargo or driving cars. It was already there in 1520. The stone on the chain But there was something wrong with the stone, which looked so ordinary during the day. Imagine... at twelve o'clock at night at New Moon, when you stuck a pin in one of her pale veins, blood flowed out. And that was not all! Not by a long shot... In the middle of the night all kinds of evil spirits, giants, witches and sorcerers came. They danced around the stone. They marched with it over the boulders of the Oudegracht. They bounced like a ball back and forth from the Vollersbrug over the Oudegracht to the Geertebrug. Back and forth! Hoepla! Fuss! It was a terrible noise and the citizens of Utrecht could not fall...
