It is the stuff of internet conspiracy theorists' dreams. A top secret, hypersonic, cold war spy plane that was allegedly flown by the Americans in UK airspace without the government's permission…
Ghost’s presence creeps out the office
Our whole building is buzzing. There’s been a ghost sighting! At the Herald! Brrr! How deliciously creepy, even for a disbeliever like me. Yes, I’d heard rumours over the years but I have never given them much credence. After all, this place is 95 years old, so you’d expect some creaks and groans, right?

Do you serve spirits?
It could have been the start of a horror story. "Have you been up to the old Stanley Hotel?" the shopkeeper asked me. The woman didn't have a hunched back or a glass eye or anything like that.

Secret flying saucers - the gateway to the stars
UFO - Flying SaucerOne of the most controversial and tantalising areas of ufology is that of the flying saucer phenomena. Over the last sixty years there have been literally thousands of reports of sightings of these craft, many of which are accompanied with photographic evidence. Despite the abundance of sightings, the origin and indeed authenticity of these craft remains unverified…
The fringe within the fringe outside the fringe becomes more fringe around the fringe
Something like that. UFOlogy has always been outside the mainstream. Always. Often referred to as a “fringe” topic, or “fringe science,” never fully accepted into the institution of science. We could argue about the reasons for this forever, in fact, we do, but I’m not concerned with the reasons for now. The fact is, the study of UFOs is, and has been, relegated to the borderline…
End times religious groups want apocalypse soon
