Elisa Lam Documentary and Theories

I saw a link on Facebook to a Kickstarter for a documentary into the death of Elisa Lam (the girl that was found dead in the water tank atop the Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles). For anyone unfamiliar,...

I haven't read any of the books but the Missing 411 books seem pretty out there. As someone said above, David Icke's stuff. Also, the books published about Skinwalker Ranch.

In response to NL, I honestly don't have the knowledge of animal vocalization to give an educated guess as to what animals could be howling in the audio you linked. My uneducated guess would be...

I don't have the ability to share links but there are a multitude of similar videos on sites like YouTube of alleged "Bigfoot howls" and I remember seeing them on TV shows dating back to Unsolved...

Bigfoot Howling

I used to believe in Bigfoot when I was a kid and was pretty disappointed when, little by little, I began to realize that none of the "evidence" came close to adding up to anything substantial. The...

I went to a show on Valentine's Day by a band called Drab Majesty that did some sort of Heaven's Gate concept album.

I don't know, to me Heaven's Gate = death penalty and many other organized religions = life imprisonment. I'd rather be under the purple sheet floating with my poison cocktail into the great beyond...

I think Big Pharma is too complex to just shuffle under the umbrella of pure evil but there is a lot of shadiness being exposed. Their (admittedly failing) attempts to stifle medical marijuana found...

Call me easy to please, but I think I'd be nearly as thrilled to see a 10 meter salamander as a plesiosaur!
