This baby was three weeks old and was resting comfortably in her car seat when the mother took a picture. After the picture was developed, she saw the gray image next to the baby that appeared to be another baby. The mother had lost her first baby due to a miscarriage and thinks that this was her lost baby coming to watch over her newborn sister.
At first, there was silence. I felt a cold breeze over my
feet. The tension in the room increased enormously, but nothing happened. We
ended the seance, and our friends went home.
Though my brother and I were sorely disappointed by the lack
of results, we decided we would listen to the tape, if for nothing else than
formalities sake. What we heard was chilling.
A short while after everyone joined hands and settled down,
there was a profound change in background noise. I can best describe it as the
sound of rushing water. Then, coming from some point in the room and going
towards (and up to) the tape recorder, were what sounded like the footsteps of
someone who was limping. When they reached the tape-recorder, there came the
sound of a bell ringing. The footsteps receded, the bell sounded again, the
sound of rushing water stopped, and, on the tape were our voices; the seance
ended.
No one consciously experienced anything that was recorded on that tape. We were there, and whatever anyone else might say, we were there. It scared the hell out of us, and thirty years later, it still chills me. Since then, I have never actively perused contacting spirits.

The event took place in December 1956 and almost the entire world press wrote about it. Sailing around the world in their luxury yacht 'Laura Lee', James and Helen Bryan found themselves in the waters of the Pacific Ocean.
They had been sailing in the calm Pacific for days when, in the late twilight, on the far horizon, they saw the outlines of a small southern island. Although it was not marked on the ship's chart, this did not surprise the Bryans, because they knew that their ship's chart was not up to date. In addition, the area they sailed through was teeming with countless islets.
As night fell, they decided to drift off into the waters of this quiet Pacific island. That's why they steered the yacht in that direction. Soon they sailed into a small sandy cove, and as it seemed to them that the islet was uninhabited, they dropped anchor, deciding to explore the interior of the island tomorrow.
James Bryan tried in vain that night to identify the island. The islet was not registered on any of the nautical charts he used. He precisely recorded its position, deciding to report his discovery to the National Geographic Society in Washington so that it would be included in maritime atlases.
That night, James and Helen treated themselves to a little celebration. They dined on the deck of lobsters bought at the Vivak island market, with a candle and a bottle of sparkling wine, admiring the quiet southern night and the colorful islet on whose sandy beaches gentle sea waves foamed. As a gentle wind blew through their crowns, the tall palm trees bent slightly, obscuring the starry sky.
The Bryans went to bed that night filled with the pleasant feelings that come over people who discover a new home. Mrs. Helen woke up first. The sun had already risen and she lazily strolled out onto the deck to pick up a few towels that were drying. When she became aware that something was wrong, she paused in confusion. All around stretched a calm open sea and nowhere on the horizon was that quiet bay, nor the colorful island with tall palm trees that they had anchored by the day before.
Helen nearly screamed and woke James in a panic. But it was all in vain. All they could conclude was that their yacht had not changed its position during the night and that they were still at the place where they had dropped the ship's anchors. However, the colorful island was no longer there.
The second case is even more unusual. At the beginning of the twentieth century, during the rapid development of textile production and the great need for cotton, many American farmers decided to grow this industrial plant. However, the highest quality types of cotton required special conditions and produced the highest quality fruit on the southern islands.
Under pressure from interested farmers, the US government approached Japan with a request to lease several of its islands for cotton cultivation. A deal was soon made. Japan ceded three small Pacific islands. However, when the American farmers arrived at the given latitude and longitude, they were a little surprised, because they could not find the leased islands. There was no sign of land anywhere nearby!
An international scandal broke out, so Tokyo reacted quickly. He sent his fleet to determine if there really were leased islands or not, but the Japanese fleet did not find them either. The islands simply disappeared and no one could explain what happened!
On old nautical maps we find many islands drawn, which are not there today: Antilia, St. Brandan, Brazil, Friesland, the island of Seven Cities... and the stories about them are more than interesting.
When the Moors, under the leadership of General Tariq, broke into European soil in 711 and occupied present-day Spain and Portugal, legend says that seven Catholic bishops, led by the Archbishop of Oporto, who did not want to live under the rule of the conquerors, led a group of refugees , which boarded several ships and sailed west. The story goes that, after wandering, they landed on a larger, colorful island where they founded seven cities, which is how they named their new abode.
The island of the Seven Cities, however, has been the subject of controversy since that moment. In the following centuries, many navigators considered it phantom, and in the 12th century, the famous Arab geographer and cartographer Idrisi, wrote about an island in the Atlantic, called Bahelia, on which there once existed seven cities. However, that island disappeared after that and nothing was heard about it until the 14th and 15th centuries. Then, on the maps of Italian and Spanish navigators, in the western part of the Atlantic, the island of Antilles appears with seven cities with unusual names: Azai, Ari, Haisos, Anzuli, etc., and in 1474, King Alfonso V of Portugal presented Captain F. Teles with 'Seven cities and other islands in the Atlantic, north of Guinea'!
There is no doubt that in those years the island of the Seven Cities represented a real mystery. This is evidenced by the record of the Flemish sailor Ferdinand Dulmus, who in 1486 asked the Portuguese king for permission to take possession of that island if he found it at all, and in 1498 the Spanish ambassador to the English court, Pedro Ahal, informed his king that Bristol sailors had sent several expedition in search of the islands of the Seven Cities and Friesland, but they failed to find them!
It remains unclear whether and why some cartographers equated the island of the Seven Cities with Antillia. It is known that European geographers sincerely believed that Antilles existed. So in 1492, Martin Bechaem, on his famous globe, placed it in the Atlantic, noting that 'a Spanish ship sailed to its coast without any danger in 1914'!
Antalya was also mentioned by other cartographers of the 15th century, and in a letter to King Alfonso V in 1480, Columbus also mentioned it with the words "the island of Antilia, which is also known to you". The king even recommends Antillio to him "as a good place where he will stop on his voyage and land on the coast".
As far as is known, Columbus never landed there, because he did not find Antilles, but they were later named the Greater and Lesser Antilles after that phantom island!
Saint Brandan is a historical figure (484-577). During his long life he became a living legend. Traveling around the northern countries and islands, he spread Christianity and founded several monasteries. He was especially persistent in organizing expeditions, which searched for the Islands of the Happy, in the western Atlantic, which many still identify with the legendary Avalon, a kind of paradise on earth.
In the Irish epic 'Voyage of Saint Brandan', the missionary's exciting voyage to an unusual archipelago, 40 days' sailing away, is described. With 17 of his companions, priests, Saint Brandan landed on a colorful stone island from which waterfalls tumbled into the sea. There they found a guide with whom they landed on the island of Bird's Paradise, but soon they continued sailing and after a three-month journey through the fog, they reached the island where Saint Ailbe lived in a large monastery.
The Irish Odyssey, as it could be called 'The Voyages of St. Brandan', describes the time of several years, in which the famous missionary landed and visited an unknown number of picturesque islands, which today are not on any nautical chart of the Atlantic Ocean. They stayed on a wooded island full of vines, which they called Grape Island; rested on the Isle of Sheep; encountered icebergs and observed islands with volcanic domes. Eventually they reached the Promised Holy Land, a rich treasure of fruits and vegetables 'and all kinds of prosperity', where they spent seven happy years. Saint Brandan returned to Ireland in advanced years. He died soon after, reaching the age of 93.
A large geographical map of the world from 1275 still covers one entire wall in the cathedral in Hereford, England. The discoveries of St. Brandan were also registered on that map, so the 'Seven Holy Islands' - the islands of St. Branadana'. On later maps, these islands are mentioned less and less, and in the 18th century, the islands appear under the name Canaries. Among the inhabitants of those seven islands, it was believed that there was an eighth island, called Sv. Boronda, and that it is located about 40 nautical miles from the island of Palma. Several fishing expeditions searched for this island in 1721, but it was no longer in the indicated position! He was never heard from again!
A legend still lives in Iceland today, which says that through a secret entrance on the Hekla volcano, you can reach the underground cities, where the descendants of an old, highly developed civilization still live. Those cities, according to that tradition, were built by the gods of the sea, who came from the heavens and were the undisputed rulers of the sea depths for centuries.
Many phantom islands are drawn on old maritime maps, but one is particularly interesting, which appeared and disappeared in different parts of the Atlantic Ocean in the past centuries. They called it - Breasil, Brezil or Brasil, and its existence was believed until the 19th century.
Phantom Island was first mentioned on Dulcert's map in 1325 and is located in waters south of Ireland. Later, it is referred to as an island surrounding a calm lagoon with nine islets, and since the 16th century Breasil has been 'walking' in the waters near North America, only to 'return' to its old place, south of Ireland, in the 18th century.
The first organized search for the 'island that appears and disappears' was recorded in 1452, when the Portuguese navigator Diego de Teive was sent by Prince Henryk to circumnavigate the North Atlantic. In search of Breasil, the Portuguese sailor reached all the way to Irish waters, but did not find the island. The same fate was experienced by the famous Captain John Lloyd, 'the most famous sailor in all of England', who after nine weeks of unsuccessful search, exhausted, disappointed and defeated, returned to his native Bristol. At the end of the 15th century, several more expeditions were organized, but all were in vain - the island of Breasil simply disappeared!
The mysterious island is also mentioned in Irish legends. It is related to the old Celtic story of nine islands that rise out of the sea every seven years and disappear as soon as a ship approaches them.
Tradition says that there were several serious witnesses who allegedly saw with their own eyes when Breasil appeared from the depths of the sea. Stunned eyewitnesses, later, claimed that on the mysterious island they noticed some kind of human-like beings moving along the shore, so the pious people of that time believed that the souls of lost sailors lived on Breasil...
In 1680, a story was recorded about how a certain Oly spent six or seven years on the island of Hi Brasil, and when he returned he was able to cure people of a wide variety of serious and incurable diseases, because, allegedly, during his stay on the mysterious island, he learned the art of magic and medicine! In the interesting part 'Irish poets, wanderers', it is stated that in 1636 a captain named Rich, who sailed from Dublin, 'managed to discover Brasil, but could not disembark because of thick fog'.
It is certain, however, that the only man who managed to land on this mysterious island was the Irish sailor, the vagabond John Nisbatt. Having sailed to Ireland in 1674, he said that Brasil was 'a great black rock, inhabited by black rabbits and a poor dangerous wizard, who lives in a great enchanted castle'. Nisbatt was able to resist the sorcerer's magic and escape thanks to the fact that he lit a fire, and fire, as it is known, represents the power of light in the fight against the forces of darkness. Breasil was dying slowly. It remained on some naval charts until the end of the 19th century. It was only at the end of 1873, when the navigators failed to provide any evidence of its existence, that the British Admiralty deleted it from all their maps forever.
But how could it happen that the stories about Breasil, the island 'that emerges from the sea and disappears', that is, a phantom island, captured the imagination of sailors and maritime superpowers for centuries? Where and why? Adequate answers have never been found to these questions.
It was discovered by a mathematical method, based on unusual anomalies in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, as well as in the belt of asteroids that orbit within the solar system. Admittedly, these anomalies were noted long before the discovery of Pluto in 1929, when it was speculated about the existence of a huge celestial body, in the immediate 'nearby', which causes them. The discovery of the miniature Pluto could not provide a satisfactory answer as to why the two large planets have irregular paths, so the question remained open until today.
Why did it take almost a century to come out with more serious information about the mysterious planet? Absence of technical capabilities or something else, can only be guessed. But it is good to remember that Uranus was discovered with a primitive telescope in 1781, and Neptune in 1846.
However, the difference between this and the other planets
in the solar system is huge and this is the main reason for the confusion and
concern of today's astronomers and scientists. And the main peculiarity of the
planet is that it moves in an elliptical path and opposite rotation around the
axis than all other planets.
Where the planet is currently located is not known, but there are certain speculations and they are a good basis for various calculations and predictions. What future awaits us and whether we will soon witness an apocalyptic celestial event no one can say for sure, but we should not forget the indisputable fact that the Earth, like the entire solar system, cyclically goes through turbulent periods; natural disasters, climate change, disappearing civilizations...!
However, the data found on those plates are unacceptable to
today's scientists, not because they are not interesting or worth studying, but
because they contradict their, for the most part, patriarchal teaching, based
primarily on Darwin's evolutionary theses and man arising from primates or a
monkey!?
Fortunately, there are exceptions worth mentioning. First of
all, the prematurely deceased Carl Sagan, a man with a great open mind, who
dared twenty years ago, in his fantastic series (and book) 'Cosmos', to mention
'... a huge, dark planet orbiting in the depths of the Milky Way, about which
we know almost nothing except that there is life on it...' !!! Who still
remembers wonderful trips on an imaginary ship - a dandelion and flying over a
mysterious planet?
Dr. John Murray, a British astronomer, after extensive
mathematical calculations, was the first to dare to disclose data on the
existence of a large, unknown planet in the neighborhood of the solar system,
as the cause of unusual deviations in the paths of distant comets. Physicist
Daniel Whitmire and astronomers from the American University of Louisiana came
to the same conclusion. And that only 12 years ago, in 1999. dr. Zecharia
Sitchin, is a scientist who, for more than fifty years, has not been directing
his research towards the sky, but rather the opposite, towards the earth,
digging in archaeological sites, studying the history written by ancient
peoples.
He is one of the few people in the world who can read the
Sumerian script and, as he says in the Prologue of his book 'The Twelfth
Planet', he has devoted his life to the study of the Old Testament, the Book of
Genesis and the history of the ancient Near East; Sumerian, Babylonian,
Assyrian, Hittite, Canaanite and other ancient texts and epic stories.
Archaeological discoveries and the deciphering of ancient records confirmed the correctness of biblical allusions to kingdoms, cities, rulers, temples and customs of ancient times. The Old Testament states in several places: 'The throne of Yahweh is in the heavens'... 'From the heavens the Lord looks down on the Earth'. Manuscripts of the ancient Near East, including a wealth of astronomical data, speak unequivocally of the existence of a planet from which the astronauts or 'gods' arrived. All ancient peoples believed in gods who descended to earth from heaven and who could fly from earth back to heaven.
All previous research, findings, assumptions, calculations,
interpretations or simply our wishes about the mysterious planet as the abode
of an advanced race have changed a lot in the last years. There are
several versions of the latest research that it is not an 'ordinary' planet,
albeit an atypical trajectory, but a planet-starship, equipped for long
galactic journeys, but also for warfare and defense.
Superficially, this
looks like some detail from sci-fi movies, but everything is much more complex
and believable than the movie, and one should not lose sight of the fact that
the film industry persistently comes up with the most incredible scenarios with
huge dollar budgets. A question to think about: 'Who and with what intention'!?
But here we are talking about the planet that we affectionately call Nibiru, although it is given various nicknames and names; from Planet X (!?), Dark Star, Brown Dwarf to the 10th planet (the 10th in our solar system, even though that planet doesn't belong there at all). Thus, a planet up to 4 times larger than Earth orbits in an elliptical path within the Milky Way and enters our system approximately every 3,600 years. Hence the appropriation of this cosmic traveler and its inclusion in the order of planets orbiting the Sun. But according to the claims of some media (in the true sense of the word) Nibiru belongs to the 'Galactic Federation' of our galaxy (called the Milky Way on Earth) as its main representative. Due to its specificity that as a planet it travels relatively huge distances and thus touches many areas of the galaxy, Nibiru was chosen as a kind of ambassador and nursery of civilizations. If Nibiru is just one federation station where is the base !?
Originally, Nibiru was created by the disintegration of the
star Sirius B and thrown into the cosmos in that collision. Too small to catch
fire and thus become a new sun, it takes an elliptical path attracted by a more
powerful body, most likely our Sun. At one point in distant cosmic prehistory,
passing through the solar system, it hit a huge planet (Tiamat, according to
Sumerian records) that was in its way, and from that union, today's Earth, the
Moon and the asteroid belt - the 'Heavenly Bracelet' were born.
How, when and why Nibiru was inhabited by the first
civilization remains an enigma. But what we are probably more interested in
than that is the question of what the imminent passage of that planet means for
Earth. In order to understand this, it is necessary to keep in mind three key
facts;
■ Nibiru is a planet up to four times larger than the Earth, which in
its perigee passes through the path between Mars and Jupiter,
■ Nibiru is inhabited by a more advanced civilization,
■ Nibiru is not only a planet but also a spaceship equipped with a huge
number of aircraft and weapons.
At one point in its history, Nibiru went from being the
abode of lower life forms to the abode of a more advanced species that needed a
suitable environment to live on such a traveling planet in the conditions of a
long-term absence of sunlight. The planet has literally been hollowed out and
all life has been transferred to its bowels, while on the surface there are
facilities and aircraft and weapons bases.
And while all this may seem strange and unbelievable to us, it is not out of place to take a look at our wonderful planet and peer under the surface. Allegedly, the Earth is also crisscrossed with underground tunnels, many of which were not built by known civilizations. The reason for the existence of underground residences on Earth, if they are not intended for mining ores, probably lies in the need to hide the inhabitants in a safer environment while extraordinary circumstances occur on the surface of the planet - for example, a disruption of solar activity!?
The Flathead Lake Monster is a cryptid, a creature whose existence is now not proven, that is said to be located in Flathead Lake in Montana. Its look is very comparable to that of the Loch Ness Monster, and the two have regularly been said to be the same kind of creature.
There are still scattered reports of sightings of the Flathead Lake Monster to this day. On August 18, 1998, an angler on the lake reported seeing a large object tailing a lake trout that he was pulling in. On July 28, 2005, a couple was relaxing on an anchored boat when they heard splashing that caught their attention. They turned to watch a creature they estimated to be 25-feet long swimming 75 to 100 yards away from them. They described it as having dark-colored skin with several rounded humps that rose up to two feet out of the water as it swam. Most sightings seem to be focused on the western side of the lake, with a good number coming from the areas on the lake known as Skidoo Bay, Polson Bay, and The Narrows. If you travel to the area, keep alert because you never know what you might see.
This happened at dawn on July 10, 1918. One of the patrol American submarines sailed from the Atlantic's very surface, not far from Cape Claire.The dawn periscope cut the waves and turned slightly in all directions, which indicated that someone was observing the open sea, which was still shrouded in mist.
It was the officer on duty, who a few moments later began to strain his gaze because it seemed to him that some kind of ship was floating about half a mile away. He informed the commander, so together they estimated that it was most likely a submarine, whose crew wanted to breathe in the fresh morning air. They could already make out the details quite clearly-the lid on the command tower was raised, and a man was walking on the bow next to the cannon as if on guard or going out for a walk. Lowering the periscope, the commander ordered an alert and to prepare the bow torpedoes. The submarine then surfaced. At that time, the technique of submarine shooting had not yet been mastered, so submarine skirmishes also took place on the surface, and on this occasion, it was necessary to determine whether it was an enemy submarine.
It was not until August 1, 1918, that the German press announced that the U-65 submarine had disappeared and was considered lost, along with a crew of 34 officers and sailors. After the First World War, this case was especially dealt with by the American and British navies. The reason was the discovery of a strictly confidential Z/U-65 file in the secret archives of the German admiralty. The preserved documents are actually a horrible story about that submarine, which seemed destined to bring misfortune to its crew and was hinted at from the very beginning of construction. One worker died and another was seriously injured and disabled. A fire broke out in the future engine room when it was half built. Some claimed that the room inexplicably began to fill with smoke, and the three technicians could not get out because the door was stuck and they suffocated. On a test voyage in October 1916, an engineer who performed inspection work on that submarine committed suicide. He jumped from the deck into the sea and immediately sank. When the submarine dived after that, it landed on the seabed, and all the efforts of the crew to bring it back to the surface remained in vain. After 12 o'clock, she suddenly shook and, regardless of the fact that no one did anything, she rushed and emerged on her own. A few days later, while loading ammunition, a torpedo exploded under unexplained circumstances. Another deck officer and five sailors were killed.
The submarine was significantly damaged and towed to the shipyard for repair. Then the terrified non-commissioned officer, Karl Josef Pedersen, reported to the commander and told the visibly excited story of the horrible encounter: "At the submarine torpedo warehouse, I saw another deck officer killed. He was in a short leather coat, an officer's, as he was the day he was killed. Due to the cramped space, he walked past me and touched me with his elbow. I saw him quite clearly. He looked real. I felt when he touched me. Nobody in the admiralty believed the story of that non-commissioned officer, who deserted that same evening. But, a few days later, almost the entire crew of the submarine was faced with such statements. She sailed the English channel and surfaced in the evening. At that time, several sailors, officers and non-commissioned officers, saw a man in the bow, who they recognized as a dead friend. After cruising the Atlantic, where she sank several Allied ships in the spring of 1917, the submarine returned to its home shipyard. It surfaced just as English planes bombed it. Unaware of what was going on outside, the commander lifted the lid of the command tower and was fatally shot in the head, so the Admiralty launched an investigation into all these strange events. Nothing unusual was discovered. The submarine then sailed with a new commander and crew. But as he jumped through the command tower, gunner Erich Eberhard shouted frantically: "I saw him next to the bow torpedo tube!".
