7 Great Monster Movies Nobody Talks About

From a Norwegian found-footage mockumentary to James Gunn’s small town horror flick, these brilliant monster movies have been all but forgotten by mass audiences. Despite having notable names attached, being of excellent quality, and exploring interesting and unique storylines, these monster movies haven’t been given the recognition they deserve. It would be brilliant for these movies to receive more attention, putting their monsters back in the spotlight, and reminding audiences why they were once terrified and amazed by these unbelievable creatures...

Druids, Pagans and Revelers Celebrate Summer Solstice with the Rising Sun at Stonehenge

As the sun rose Saturday on the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, a crowd erupted in cheers at Stonehenge where the ancient monument in southern England has clocked the summer solstice over thousands of years.

The orange ball crested the northeast horizon behind the Heel Stone, the entrance to the stone circle, and shone its beam of light into the center of one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments. The solstice is one of the few occasions each year when visitors are allowed to walk among the stones, which are otherwise fenced off.

The crowd gathered before dawn at the World Heritage Site to mark the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere...

Demon vs. Ghost: What's the Difference?

Demons and ghosts are both supernatural entities that are often associated with evil or malevolent intentions. However, there are some key differences between the two. Demons are typically believed to be fallen angels or evil spirits that actively seek to harm or possess humans. They are often depicted as powerful and cunning beings that can manipulate and deceive. On the other hand, ghosts are believed to be the spirits of deceased individuals who are trapped in the earthly realm. They are often seen as lost or restless souls who may be seeking closure or resolution. While both demons and ghosts are often feared and associated with hauntings, their origins and motivations are distinct...

The Werewolf Hunting Craze in 17th-Century France

In September of 1573, authorities in the Franche-Comté region of now-France declared open season…on werewolves. The edict raised the alarm about a werewolf on the loose. Villagers reported that children had gone missing, and they thought a werewolf was to blame.

The parliament agreed, and they agreed far enough to pause previous edicts that banned citizens from gathering in large groups and carrying weapons. Armed with their newly legal halberds, pikes, long guns, and cudgels, the people of Franche-Comté sallied forth...

Are Fairies and Leprechauns Demonic?

The church does not have any current official teaching on fairies or leprechauns. However, in traditional folklore, fairies and leprechauns were not the sweet and playful creatures that they tend to be in our modern depictions, and they have an association with pre-Christian European paganism. So, while the church does not formally teach that today's fantasy fairies are demonic, I suspect that fairies' roots in pagan folklore are what prompted these comments...

Case Study of Recognition Patterns in Haunted People Syndrome

Abstract

Haunted People Syndrome (HP-S) denotes individuals who recurrently report various “supernatural” encounters in everyday settings ostensibly due to heightened somatic-sensory sensitivities to dis-ease states (e.g., marked but sub-clinical levels of distress), which are contextualized by paranormal beliefs and reinforced by perceptual contagion effects. This view helps to explain why these anomalous experiences often appear to be idioms of stress or trauma. We tested the validity and practical utility of the HP-S concept in an empirical study of an active and reportedly intense ghostly episode that was a clinical referral. The case centered on the life story of the primary percipient, a retired female healthcare worker. Secondary percipients included her husband and adult daughter, all of whom reported an array of benign and threatening anomalies (psychological and physical in nature) across five successive residences. Guided by prior research, we administered the family online measures of transliminality, sensory-processing sensitivity, paranormal belief, locus of control, desirability for control, and a standardized checklist of haunt-type phenomena. The primary percipient also completed a measure of adverse childhood events and supplied an event diary of her anomalous experiences. We found reasonably consistent support for HP-S from a set of quantitative observations that compared five proposed syndrome features against the family members’ psychometric profiles and the structure and contents of their anomalous experiences. Specifically, the reported anomalies both correlated with the family’s scores on transliminality and paranormal belief, as well as elicited attributions and reaction patterns aligned with threat (agency) detection. There was also some evidence of perceptual congruency among the family members’ anomalous experiences. Putative psi cannot be ruled out, but we conclude that the family’s ordeal fundamentally involved the symptoms and manifestations of thin (or “permeable”) mental boundary functioning in the face of unfavorable circumstances or overstimulating environments and subsequently acerbated by poor emotion regulation, histrionic and catastrophizing reactions, and active confirmation biases.

Scientists Discover Lucid Dreaming Is Neither Sleep Nor Wakefulness, But Something Completely New

Lucid dreaming, the phenomenon where dreamers become aware they are dreaming and can influence their dreams, is now recognized as a distinct state of consciousness. Research led by Çağatay Demirel from the Donders Center for Cognitive Neuroimaging at Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands reveals that lucid dreaming is neither fully wakefulness nor typical REM sleep. Instead, it involves unique brain wave patterns and neural activity that set it apart. This new understanding was published recently in the Journal of Neuroscience and represents one of the most comprehensive analyses to date...
