Whelp, they're supposed to be way North of this area, but sure enough.... 1.) https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/outdoors/2022/06/21/black-bear-sighted-franklin-one-several-southeast-wisconsin/7689349001/ 2.) https://www.cbs58.com/news/black-bear-struck-and-killed-by-truck-on-hale-interchange

Okay, probably strictly a UL, but I've never, EVER heard of this and it begs the question, "Is it true?" Jury's still out on that, but this kind of weirdness is fascinating to me:

This was something I read in a book I checked out from the local library (I think). I have no idea what book, as this was ages ago. Unfortunately, my Google-Fu is failing me, so I'm wondering if anyone recognizes this. I believe this took place around the 1950's/'60's. Might have been in Lake...

...Is here. Where's here? No one knows. I kid, but the Milwaukee Paracon will feature speakers and all sorts of good jazz this year. It's free, but you do need to register. Plenty of online lectures and such. https://milwaukeeparacon.com/

I think it's worth it to post a thread for peoples (like me) to have a resource for discussing Fortean-ish quotes that they've heard that they haven't been able to track down yet. (Mods, I really did a search, but got weird results having nothing to do with what I'm asking, please feel free to...

So, after watching the trailer, it seems to smack of Discovery Channel's Ancient Aliens, but I thought this was at least worth a perusal.... http://mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/hunt-for-the-skinwalker-filmmaker-reveals-secrets-of-infamous-utah-ranch-dubbed-the-paranormal-disneyland/

So, there was a rather large katydid in my apartment building. I kept having the feeling that I should move it so it wouldn't get squished for being a large insect invading our homes by people who didn't know any better. Eventually, I attempted to catch it and it landed on the second story...

Not to spam, but this is a pretty cool convention and we've got a lot of guest speakers including the inestimable Loren Coleman coming to town so we're trying to raise some funding to cover costs.... Yes, I'm volunteering, so technically I'm affiliated, but I figure if this isn't the place to...

"The Curious Enigma of 'Imaginary' Childhood Friends" I was interested in this book the moment it came out and am about to read it for the fourth or fifth time now. It seemed as though it completely flew under the Fortean radar as I've heard nearly no mention of it from anyone and it seems to...

(Mods: I know we have threads about both subjects, but I thought that this was specific enough to warrant its own thread. Feel free to move it if you see fit.) I've long thought about this and finally had a chance to try it last night. Once I attained lucidity (it happened naturally), I tried...

The venue and speakers have been announced! If you're planning to be in the Midwest October 14-16, be sure to hit this up! Last year went beautifully; we had some great speakers, good food, and a grand time! This year, Linda Godfrey will be returning and Loren Coleman will be our keynote...

...You get when a certain song creeps you out for no apparent reason. Right now it's "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster The People. For some reason it gives me the galloping shudders. When I was a kid, it was this other song whose name escapes me (Edit: Found it. "Around The Way Girl". The plugin...

Original thread here. I've had a couple of years to ponder this now and it struck me the other day: I think I got the message confused. After some soul-searching (Hah!), I think I get it now. The dream wasn't a direct vision of the afterlife, but there was a distinct element about it. Here's...

I'm not big on symbol interpretation when it comes to dreams. I think they're entirely too personal to give a broad label to. Still, this is bugging me and I'm wondering what you all think.... Last night I had a dream that involved repeatedly breaking glass and another which also involved glass...

It's a corker....I've no idea where I found the link, so apologies if this has been posted already. http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/2y494e/deep_sea_fishermen_ocean_freighter_workers_naval/

[Mods, I hope I did that right. I don't want to get FT in trouble. Edit as necessary.] http://phys.org/news/2014-10-majorana-fermion-physicists-elusive-particle.html

"Spammer's Gate" is locked, and I have no "mark as spam" button, so here: [ [ gone ] P_M ] Kellyban's comment is clearly wedding photography spam. This might be a good thread to keep around so others can flag spam if/when they come across it. (The mods do a great job, but something's...

This is one I've been sitting on for a very long time. It sounds so bizarre that I haven't bothered to share it with the world at large. Here goes: When I was 8 or 9, I had gone to my grandma and grandpa's farm way out in the country to spend a few days with them and one of my cousins...

The description is in the headline. Where are we at with copying/pasting articles? I've lost track on what I'm supposed to do, so here's an excerpt: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/05/15/are-viruses-the-next-cure-for-cancer.html

I love when NASA tries to get people excited about space. http://socialforms.nasa.gov/ladee

Fellow Forteans, I'm searching for a very specific account, about a captain who actually boards a ghost ship, which I've only read once and, for the life of me, I can not remember which book I read it in. Here's what I know: This was supposed to be a "true" account. It may have been a...

I'm not sure as to the Fortean nature of this, but it has left me puzzled for a very long while now and it's about damned time that I post it.... When I was in first grade, I was enrolled at Wilson Elementary School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Map Here.) The entire time I was there (only...

Okay, this is an odd one. First, I believe that the search function is on drugs or something which is why I'm posting this here...but wait! There's more.... I vividly recall a forum thread titled "Back From the Dead". I never actually read it, I was just totally aware of it. Recently...

I had a dream last night. It was one of those where "it seemed so real!" I didn't even recognize it as a dream; I was utterly aware that I had fallen asleep and had died.... At the behest of a friend of mine, I wrote up as much as I can remember, so please excuse the long post. This...

Oddly enough, I've found that throughout my life every place I've lived has had at least some sort of essence, character, or "lived in feeling" where you can tell that people have lived there or on the land that the house now occupies. I never realized this until I moved to where I am now...

http://biofort.blogspot.com/2006/10/of-washington-eagles-ivory-bills-and.html Just found this today, seems like a rather interesting blog to check back to from time to time. This article, though short, brings up some ideas as to the identity of some of the larger big-bird sightings.

Not so much actual incidents, rather a brief article outlining the phenomenon. Maybe something new for some people: http://www.book-of-thoth.com/article1634.html

I haven't a clue where exactly to post this, but didn't want to start a brand new thread for something so simple.... This happened about an hour and a half ago, as I was walking to a hardware store to apply for a job (having heard that they're always hiring, and my having been unemployed for...

This situation is a little odd, but being that I was the one it happened to, I can attest to its validity. A while back, a friend of a friend gave me a necklace. I should iterate that we were trading various beads and other art supplies when I found this in the drawer he showed me. It was a...
