Since mid-July, 2006, in and around the Oglala Sioux Pine Ridge Reservation, close encounters and sightings (see link below) have been occurring with a Bigfoot. Local police have routinely responded and sometimes seen the tall hairy hominid. You have been able to follow here an on-going rundown on these almost realtime reports, not carried by any other media outlet. Now, Cryptomundo brings you the first audio of a recent dispatch of such a call. On August 11, 2006, Donovan Lone Hill recorded this Pine Ridge Reservation law enforcement scanner exchange and forwarded it to be posted here. You can clearly hear (and do listen all the way to the end of the audio) that a police woman is describing the sighting of a hunchbacked Bigfoot…
Lobster's snappy return of wallet
A Plymouth man is celebrating the snappy return of his wallet after it was found being clutched by a lobster. The wallet was lost when Paul Westlake, 30, took a swim in Plymouth Sound with his brother after drinking in a pub. It was handed in a few days later to Mr Westlake's hairdresser by a diver who had caught the lobster and found the creature firmly grasping it. But he will be unable to thank the lobster who hung on to his wallet as it has now been eaten…

Put-in-Bay haunt boasts of eerie visitor
My wife and I drove up to Lake Erie the other day to enjoy Ohio’s hottest tourist destination. We visited Marblehead and its famous lighthouse, the shops and restaurants along the shore. We bought some Red Haven peaches grown there. The back bays were choked with lily pads and beautiful, yellow American lotus flowers, Ohio’s largest wildflower. One day, we took a ferry to Put-in-Bay to experience that place of merriment. While on the island, I learned about "Dashing Tom" Alexander, who keeps popping up at a tavern in the village even though he has been dead since 1936…
Sight unseen: Are we hard-wired for religion?
Almost every faith centers on a Supernatural Enforcer. An invisible power - a god, ancestral spirits or karma - rewards those who follow the rules and punishes those who don't. Why do most religions have that in common? It's not inevitable, after all. A faith with a god who is indifferent toward people is simple to imagine. But it's much harder to find. Believers will say their religion reflects divine will: that's the way God (or something) planned it…

The unidentified & creatures of the outer edge
Whether you approach this classic bumper edition with stoic skepticism or as an account of the mysterious phenomena that hides in the shadows between science and the imagination, this book's one hell of a ride. Rather than addressing established scientific facts (how passé), Clark, a long-time ufologist and anomalist, and Coleman, a cryptozoologist, take delight in scrutinizing the weird and wonderful terrain that remains largely un-traversed by mainstream science…
A Montana monster
Some of the old time hunters and Indian fighters who are still holding out in the city should endeavor to find a wild eyed individual who came in from the mountains this morning. Whether he discovered a new brand of whisky or whether it was the lonliness [sic] of his life in the mountains that caused him to see visions and hear sounds is not known, but, whatever the cause, he had told a story that knocks Joe Klaffki’s ghost story, attested to by Jack Brennan, completely in the shade…
The origin of ghosts
Just a few days ago, there was an outbreak of mass hysteria at a national service training camp. Because the incident happened to occur on the 14th of the seventh lunar month (the daye of the Hungry Ghost festival), it caused a great deal of speculation. From a psychological perspective, hysteria is a nervous disorder brought on by pressure, shock, excitement or fatigue. Hysteria can be highly contagious, and those afflicted often scream or shout loudly as a form of release…
