It is safe to say that the majority of UFO and alien encounters – cases of alien abduction aside – unfold from a distance, with brief sightings of strange aerial objects or even bizarre-looking humanoids from afar. Furthermore, these sightings are, by and large, peaceful and without incident. There are, though, some encounters that go beyond even alien abduction and certainly beyond sightings of strange lights in the distance. These encounters have descended into armed stand-offs between the respective witnesses and otherworldly creatures. What makes some of these incidents even more remarkable and fascinating is that they bleed heavily into other areas of interest, such as cryptid creatures and the world of the supernatural.

The Amazon rainforest of South America is truly a marvel to behold. Covering most of the Amazon basin of South America, this basin encompasses 7,000,000 km2 (2,700,000 sq mi), of which 6,000,000 km2 (2,300,000 sq mi) are covered by the rainforest, much of it little explored by the outside world. It is the largest tract of rainforest in the world, holding unparalleled biodiversity and a multitude of species that have yet to even be discovered, and among these are said to be some truly monstrous mystery beasts, including giant snakes, giant spiders, living dinosaurs, and others.

When most of us think of UFOs, we likely cast our minds no further back than the late 1940s, which is widely considered to be the start of the modern UFO era. Likewise, when the subject of encounters with aliens and alien abduction are discussed, we almost certainly think of cases from the 1970s, eighties, or even 1990s. The fact is, though, there are many encounters on record that appear to clearly describe strange aerial objects, as well as some that even suggest interaction with otherworldly entities long before the mid-twentieth century.

History holds many oddities that we may never fully understand, either through incomplete documentation, disinterest at the time, or simply a big question mark that hangs over all. Among these are mysterious lost tribes of people that have been encountered and confronted in all corners of the globe, often vanishing before we really understand them or only known from sparse accounts, and leaving us perplexed at just who they were or where their origins lie. Here we will look at mysterious lost tribes of ape-men, blue-eyed Indians, mystical tribes with telepathic powers, and more.

The idea that human civilization has been gradually evolving over time in a linear manner, is a relatively new concept that was formulated during the period of colonization. Nearly every ancient culture believed otherwise. They said that time moves in cycles, smaller and larger, and that our civilization has gone through innumerable ups and downs over eons. With the emergence of new scientific data, it is becoming increasingly obvious that the ancients knew what they were talking about, and we have been far too quick to denounce the collective wisdom of our ancestors as the flights of fancy of primitives.

There are many alleged secret projects that have swirled around the conspiracy world for decades, some involving UFOs, some involving aliens, and others concerning mind control. Without a doubt, though, some of the most intriguing and mind-blowing are those that involve, essentially, time travel and, more specifically, projects that have taken place in the future or the past – or both – with direct consequences to events in our contemporary era.

Mirrors have had legends, lore, superstition and myths tied to them for pretty much as long as they have been around. The ancient Romans believed that they reflected a person’s soul and could bring great strife if they were misused, and indeed many other cultures have various negative, supernatural qualities attached to mirrors, such as they can suck out one’s soul, be portents of death, or offer glimpses into some other dimension. For instance, the Chinese once believed that what we saw in mirrors were other realms of existence. In many cultures, mirrors are used for communication with spirits, and it is thought they serve as portals or doorways to the spirit world, that they are some barrier between the world of the living and that of the dead, through that veil that separates us. Mirrors were even used in divination. For instance “catoptromancy” and “enoptromancy” are practices in which mirrors are used to capture the reflection of the moon for the purpose of seeing the future. It is perhaps this widespread belief that has led to the phenomenon of haunted mirrors, so common around the world that various disparate cultures follow the superstition of covering mirrors at certain times, in particular after a death, in order to prevent whatever is on the other side from peeking in or coming through, or even to stop a soul from becoming trapped within the mysterious mirror world. Mirrors are weird, and this is reflected in plenty of legends, lore, and urban legends, as well as actual alleged cases of haunted mirrors. Let’s take a look.
