 The 'Werewolf of Allariz' or the 'Tallow Man' were the nicknames for Spain’s first serial killer, a tailor named Manuel Blanco Romasanta.
After being charged with the murder of a constable, Romasanta fled to live in a small village and soon, before long, his number of victims rose.

 "Thinking it was other living people, they decided to leave, but on passing by these areas they noticed something strange – the entry they used to get in was now closed and the bolt had been slid shut... from the inside."
A strange encounter in this beautiful old house.  The term "Thunderbird" comes from the name used by many Native American communities to describe either a single creature, or a species of bird, regarded as a supernatural beast of great strength - large enough and capable enough to attack, and take off with a human.
 Stephen Young was sentenced to life in prison for the 1993 double murder of newly weds Harry and Nicola Fuller.
However, the verdict of guilty was soon overruled, and a retrial called for, as a "material irregularity" had taken place - the verdict came from a Ouija Board...  For well over a century a ghostly figure has been reported on this bridge.
It is thought that ghost is none other than George Grover, the head of a convict road gang and quite a cruel one at that. In March 1832 his broken body was found below this bridge... a victim of murder.  Ever had a bit too much to drink, lost all inhibition and took off your clothing, to bare your all to the watching world, only to regret it later?
In the middle ages people blamed demons for their many different troubles, Sitri being the culprit for public nudity amongst other things...  Joseph Merrick was born in Leicester, England in 1862 as a perfectly healthy baby boy.
He died 27 years later in London Hospital having become world-famous as the severely-deformed "Elephant Man." His brief life was a medical marvel and a ‘side show’ attraction.  Many of the Torajan people living in Tana Toraja have a unique way of 'burying' their dead children.
If the child is not yet of teething age they are taken to one of the villages 'baby trees'. A hole is carved in the trunk and the baby is placed inside, before the hole is resealed. "We bury the babies in these trees so their souls can go with the wind."  In April, 1973, a young boy is attacked by a very strange creature in his Enfield, Illinois, backyard.
Soon after, another family encounters an odd creature that tries to break into their house. What was this 'horror' that stalked people and homes near the Enfield railroad?  “And so, being young and dipped in folly. I fell in love with melancholy”
Known for his dark and macabre writing, Edgar Allan Poe lived up to his literary reputation by dying a very strange and unusual death, aged 40, in the year 1849, leaving an unsolved mystery. |
