Love Hewitt and her pals crowded around the monitor to watch the scene played back and were...

    LONDON (Reuters) - Stimulating a certain area of the brain can produce a creepy feeling that someone is watching you when no one is, scientists said Wednesday. Swiss researchers made the discovery while evaluating a young woman for surgery to treat epilepsy...When they electrically stimulated the left temporoparietal junction in her brain, which is linked to self-other distinction and self-processing, she thought someone was standing behind her. If they repeated the stimulus while she leaned forward and grabbed her knees she had an unpleasant sensation that the shadowy figure was embracing her..."Our findings may be a step toward understanding the...

    In south Texas, its frightening name resurfaces in the news every few months — especially after another neighborhood pet or farm animal mysteriously dies. "El Chupacabra," they say, "is back." Parents are cautious, warning their children to stay inside at night or risk a face-to-fang encounter with the chupacabra — a red-eyed, spiky-haired, blood-sucking creature with a green-blue tint to its hide. The chupacabra haunts the minds of the residents in La Frontera, the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. Here, an amalgamation of cultures blend, represented by Gulf shrimp tacos, polka-inspired Tejano music, and young, white girls who also hold quinceneras, the Mexican...

    Remember "The Sixth Sense"? How the ghost's voices showed up on the tape recorder? Supposedly, that's what we have here. If you click the link above you can go to this Ghost Hunting group's website and listen to these soundbites of ghosts that were picked up when they visited supposedly haunted buildings. These weren't heard by human ear, but were (more or less) audible when they reviewed the tape. I'll include direct links to some of the better ones below. WARNING: Do not listen to these late at night, in the dark, especially in a creaky house. Spooky Halloween.

  • New 'Stalker' hunts for that '70s sizzle (Kolchak Returns)

    NY Daily News ^ | 9/29/05 | staff
    NIGHT STALKER. Tonight at 9, ABC. In two immensely popular telemovies and one season of a less popular spinoff series in the 1970s, Darren McGavin played Carl Kolchak, a persistent middle-aged reporter whose nose for news kept sniffing out evidence of the paranormal. "Kolchak: The Night Stalker" was the spiritual father of "The X-Files," so it's only fitting that one of the writer-producers of "The X-Files" has been handed the task of updating Kolchak for a new generation. Viewers coming to the premiere of ABC's "Night Stalker" tonight at 9 would be wise to picture themselves as armchair Kolchaks: Each...

    Does anyone remember the thread with the picture that you stare at for awhile until the ghost pops out and makes you check your undies? I can find the picture on the web, but I'm specifically looking for the one that one of our fellow freepers changed to have Tourist Guy come running out. Can anyone help?
