Was a ghost caught on video during a paranormal investigation?

A camera crew filming a paranormal investigation inside a house has stumbled upon footage they believe may be a ghost.

ABS-CBN News in the Philippines reported that it recently happened while the “Rated K” crew was filming at a home in Tondo, Manila.

The cameraman said he thought the figure appeared to be a female ghost. The “ghost” appeared to be holding the grills of a stairway.

A videography expert reportedly told the news outlet that the white figure could have just been light that bounced off from the camera.

Have North-east castle staff captured a ghost on camera?

IS THIS mysterious mist evidence of ghosts at a so-called haunted North-east castle?

Staff at the National Trust for Scotland’s 700 year-old Drum Castle in Aberdeenshire were left scratching their heads by image, captured on one of the estate's webcams.

The conservation charity’s wildlife team had set up cameras in the castle’s stables to observe a nesting family of swallows.

Property manager Dr Alison Burke said: “Everyone tells me that Drum Castle is a haunted place and that there are strange happenings here. 

“I have always been highly sceptical but there have been too many inexplicable events that cannot be ignored.

“I have to admit, when I checked the camera and found this image a cold shiver ran down my spine.”

The webcam is motion-activated and the NTS said it was “certain” it wasn’t triggered by a swallow or an insect.

There have been many stories of apparitions and unexplained sounds at the castle, between Peterculter and Banchory.

The stables are next to a garden where people have reported hearing two women laughing together despite no one being present.

I Thought This Was Just Snow Covering A Field. But Then I Saw What It Was And OMG!

Imagine waking up to a beautiful snow blanketed field outside of your picturesque farm. But wait it’s still summer so obviously that couldn’t be snow. You walk outside your front door to take a closer look and immediately your skeleton jumps out of your skin from the most disturbing sight you’ve ever seen! Spiders! Millions and millions of creepy crawly spiders! That’s exactly what happened in a small town in Australia called Wagga Wagga. Recent floods have covered miles and miles of once lush green land with feet of muddy water. This caused the evacuation of over 13,000 people. Well, naturally spiders aren’t the biggest fans of detrimental water levels either so they took to the hills. Millions of spiders had to migrate to higher ground to escape the flooding. This caused an extreme population of the evil little creatures to congregate in one small area. Take a look at these horrifying images that are the causing nightmares around the world. This is why you want to stay far away from Australia.

It looks like a light snow or fog blanketing the fields surrounding these farms. 

Luckily these spiders aren’t harmful to humans however, I would NOT want to face millions of them. 

With the giant web structures covering miles of land, there is no shortage of food for these spiders who are capturing every fly in sight. 

I would be walking around with a flame thrower on full blast. 

Residents say that there’s a silver blanket covering everything in sight. 

It’s like a plague sent from above. Except it’s spiders so you know they came straight from the depths of hell! 

How do you even walk around? 

I wish this would happen with cotton candy. 

But spiders! Talk about your worst nightmare. 

There’s more silk in these fields than in Elton John’s closet.

Kill it with fire!

You can’t go anywhere without getting a face full of spider webs. 

As soon as the water recedes these 8 legged demons will return to their normal nesting grounds but until then these people are living in hell. 

Luckily these spiders aren’t harmful to humans. 

This one here is about to shoot a web into the air and let the wind take him further inland.

Would you burn your house down and run for your life? 

Or wait for the military to come rescue you? 

This is considered a national emergency, isn’t it? 

Ok maybe not an emergency but I would declare it one if it were up to me. 

This place is straight out of my nightmares and I would move away immediately. Harmful or not, I don’t care. I can just imagine tripping and falling in one of these fields and being completely engulfed with millions of evil spiders! No thanks ever in a million years! I HATE SPIDERS!

Take a look at this quick video about the plague of spiders that took over Wagga Wagga! It is terrifying.

This Couple Was Driving When The Craziest Thing Ever Happened. This Is Insane!

A couple was driving from West Monroe, Louisiana in route to Memphis. Along the way they were stopped at a train crossing in a small quaint town called Mer Rouge, LA. They noticed that a tractor trailer was pulling an enormous crane across the tracks when it stalled and the lights signaling an oncoming train started flashing. Seconds later, the train horns started getting louder and louder as the approaching train sped closer and closer. Luckily the camera came out before the inevitable catastrophe occurred and the couple caught the whole thing on tape.

The reason the semi truck stalled on the track initially causing the train collision was because the trailer that it was towing was too low to cross the raised train track. A total of 19 train cars were derailed and the surrounding area was evacuated immediately. Two people were life flighted out of the wreckage and the driver of the semi truck was able to jump out of his truck before the collision.

The Legendary Emerald Tablet

The origins of Western alchemy can be traced back to Hellenistic Egypt, in particular to the city of Alexandria. One of the most important characters in the mythology of alchemy is Hermes Trismegistus (Hermes the Thrice-Great). The name of this figure is derived from the Egyptian god of wisdom, Thoth and his Greek counterpart, Hermes. The Hermetica, which is said to be written by Hermes Trismegistus, is generally regarded as the basis of Western alchemical philosophy and practice. In addition, Hermes Trismegistus is also believed to be the author of the Emerald Tablet.

The Emerald Tablet is said to be a tablet of emerald or green stone inscribed with the secrets of the universe. The source of the original Emerald Tablet is unclear, hence it is surrounded by legends. The most common legend claims that the tablet was found in a caved tomb under the statue of Hermes in Tyana, clutched in the hands of the corpse of Hermes Trismegistus himself. Another legend suggests that it was the third son of Adam and Eve, Seth, who originally wrote it. Others believed that the tablet was once held within the Ark of the Covenant. Some even claim that the original source of the Emerald Tablet is none other than the fabled city of Atlantis.

 Whilst various claims have been made regarding the origins of the Emerald Tablet, as yet, no verifiable evidence has been found to support them. The oldest documentable source of the Emerald Tablet’s text id the Kitab sirr al-haliqi (Book of the Secret of Creation and the Art of Nature), which was itself a composite of earlier works. This was an Arabic work written in the 8th century A.D., and attributed to a ‘Balinas’ or Pseudo-Apollonius of Tyana. It is Balinas who provides us with the story of how he discovered the Emerald Tablet in the caved tomb. Based on this Arabic work, some believe that the Emerald Tablet was an Arabic work written between the 6th and 8th centuries A.D., rather than a piece of work from Antiquity, as many have claimed.

Whilst Balinas claimed that the Emerald Tablet was written originally in Greek, the original document that he purportedly possessed no longer exists, if indeed it existed at all. Nevertheless, the text itself quickly became well known, and has been translated by various people over the centuries. For instance, an early version of the Emerald Tablet also appeared in a work called the Kitab Ustuqus al-Uss al-Thani (Second Book of the Elements of the Foundation), which is attributed to Jabir ibn Hayyan. It would, however, take several more centuries before the text was accessible to Europeans. In the 12th century A.D., the Emerald Tablet was translated into Latin by Hugo von Santalla.

The Emerald Tablet would become one of the pillars of Western alchemy. It was a highly influential text in Medieval and Renaissance alchemy, and probably still is today. In addition to translations of the Emerald Tablet, numerous commentaries have also been written regarding its contents. For instance, a translation by Isaac Newton was discovered among his alchemical papers. This translation is currently being held in King’s College Library in Cambridge University. Other notable researchers of the Emerald Tablet include Roger Bacon, Albertus Magnus, John Dee and Aleister Crowley. 

The interpretation of the Emerald Text is not a straightforward matter, as it is after all a piece of esoteric text. One interpretation, for instance, suggests that the text describes seven stages of alchemical transformation – calcination, dissolution, separation, conjunction, fermentation, distillation and coagulation. Yet, despite the various interpretations available, it seems that none of their authors claim to possess knowledge of the whole truth. Furthermore, readers are encouraged to read the text and try to interpret and find the hidden truths themselves.

UFO Seen In 15th Century Painting From Birthplace Of ‘Dracula’ Vlad Tepes — What Does This Mean?

A UFO appears to hover over a building that may be connected to the real-life Dracula in a recently uncovered painting from the town of Sighisoara, Romania. A photo of the mysterious painting that appears on the wall of a 700-year-old monastery was snapped this summer by tourist Catalina Borta, who sent it to a prominent UFO research group for evaluation.

The bizarre painting shows what appears to be a church — perhaps the same one where the painting was found — seemingly engulfed in flames. Over the church, a large, floating disc hovers, sending a column of smoke billowing toward the sky above.

The town of Sighisoara is believed to be where Vlad Tepes, the notorious “Vlad the Impaler,” also known as Vlad III Dracula, was born in 1431 — not long after the monastery where the painting appears was constructed.

The name “Vlad III Dracula” translates as “Vlad III, Son of the Dragon. The nickname “Impaler,” not imposed on Vlad Tepes until after his death sometime around 1477, came from the bloodthirsty warlord’s practice of spiking the bodies of his enemies on sharpened poles and leaving them on public display as show of power.

Vlad III Dracula was Irish author Bram Stoker’s inspiration for the vampire Count Dracula in the 1897 novel Dracula in which the now-legendary fictional villain first appeared.

“But why would a painting that may have been created in the real Dracula’s lifetime, in his own hometown, depict what appears to be a flying disc-shaped craft, of the type described today as a UFO?”

Acording to Gilli Schechter and Hannan Sabat of the Israel-based Extraterrestrials and UFO Research Association, the painting in the Church of the Dominican Monastery in Sighisoara depicts a flying disc that appears very similar to other UFO type objects scattered through artworks of medieval times.

They cite, in particular, an illustration from a book called the Prodigiorum Liber, an account of an ancient Roman battle during which a mysterious round object appeared in the sky. The flying disc in the illustration looks very similar to the UFO in the Sighisoara church painting.

Similar discs have also appeared on French coins from the 17th century. But UFO expert Marc Dantonio says that the images on those coins are actually intended to depict military shields. The shields were supposed to symbolize the military might of the French king Louis XIV.

Experts have had some trouble dating the strange UFO painting from the birthplace of Vlad Dracula. The inscription below the painting is a Biblical quotation in German, suggesting that the painting was created no earlier than 1523, the first year that the Bible was translated into German.

Does the UFO painting date from the lifetime of the Vlad Dracula or a nearly a century later? Is the painting supposed to symbolize the military power of Dracula? Or is there some connection between the warlord who became a fictional vampire and extraterrestrials?

UFO experts remain baffled as they wait for more information about the startling painting from the home of Dracula.
