"This took place in Essex, United Kingdom," reports S.C. "My son was out on his swing when suddenly he came running in and he looked ever so pale. I asked him what was wrong and he said he saw someone standing at the gate at the end of the garden with a wedding dress, red curly hair, and eyes with a black rectangle over them... and then it disappeared. We went out and looked over the field at the end of the garden and we could not see the lady anywhere. Then at night, he screamed in the kitchen and he said he saw her again standing at the gate."

Do streetlights turn off when you pass by them or beneath them with a high degree of regularity? If so, you could be a "SLIder" -- SLI standing for the "street light (or lamp) interference" phenomenon. There's an ongoing debate as to whether this is a genuine psychic effect or if the street lights turning off (which they sometimes do when they are in need of repair) when people pass by them is just a coincidence. However, there is evidence that certain people do have an adverse effect on watches, lights and other electrical appliances. Is there a connection? Read more.

One of the most persistent and entertaining types of ghost stories is that of the phantom or vanishing hitchhiker. It's also one of the most chilling because, if true, they bring ghosts in very close contact with mortals. More disconcerting still, the stories depict the spectres as looking, acting and sounding like living people - even physically interacting with the unsuspecting drivers who pick them up. Read more.

Tim D. alerts us to this excellent Bigfoot sighting he had in July, 1983 in Forest County, Wisconsin. He originally posted this on the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization website:

"I was 15 at the time. I vacationed at Johnnies Resort every summer with my family. We were there to fish and I had been there every summer since I was 5. It was about 8:00 p.m. and I was in my boat fishing close to shore when I heard a lot of splashing. Thinking it was a large muskie in shallow water, I used my trolling motor to get closer. It was in tall bull rushes.

Recently, actress Fran Drescher (The Nanny) disclosed that she believes both she and her ex-husband were abducted by aliens when in high school. Could it be true?

The X-Men movies, based on the enormously popular comic book, feature a collection of human mutants who were born with extraordinary and sometimes bizarre powers. With such names as Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Magneto and Mystique, they bound around making blades spring from their knuckles, conjuring hurricanes from the sky or manipulating their environment through telekinesis. Would you believe there are real X-Men? They may not be genetic mutants, in the strictest sense, but they are extraordinary... not at all like you and me. Here's our own gallery of real-life super-powered characters.

This picture was sent to us by Sarah, who says, "Please take a look at this shot that was caught on cctv," says Sarah. "The picture quality might not be brilliant, but this is because I took a picture off my mobile phone from the computer screen while watching the cctv footage as it was happening."

"I was at home and my friend left his jacket hanging on the back of my bedroom door," reports George. "A few days went by and my friend phoned and said, 'I'm near your house now. I'm coming to get my jacket.' So I went to get it from the back of my bedroom door... and it wasn't there. I looked everywhere. I thought I was going mad. (I was the only one in my house at the time.) I just told my friend that if it turned up, I'd phone him.

Do you believe in ghosts? I don't. I don't need to believe in ghosts... or Bigfoot or psychic phenomena. There is enough evidence for me to conclude that these phenomena are very real possibilities. For example, ghost and haunting phenomena have been documented nearly since the beginning of written human history. We don't understand what they really are, but they are part of the human experience worthy of investigation. So we should not get caught up in rigid beliefs about these mysteries. The paranormal should not be a belief system, but an ongoing journey of exploration. Read more.
