'Shadow Figure' Blamed For Infection
Mike in Nevada wrote in to tell of a weird experience he had:
“I'll share my scary dream or whatever it was. I'm 47 years old and have never had anything like this. Last Tuesday night, early Wednesday morning, I suddenly woke up. Or at least I felt like I woke up. I looked up and there was this shadow figure, a tall, thin man, leaning over me. His arm reached down and he was touching my privates with his long, skinny pointer finger. He didn't have a face or anything, just a shadow. I freaked but I couldn't move, speak, scream, kick, punch, run, nothing, I was frozen. I kept telling myself, Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! But I felt like I was already awake. Finally I was able to move and pull the covers over myself and sleep peacefully the rest of the night.
When I woke up in the morning, I remember it felt like it had actually happened, like it wasn't a dream. I was fine that day. but Thursday I ended up feeling like crap. I was achy all day and I felt like I had a bladder infection. Even though I felt like crap, I was busy all day. That night my wife barely touched my arm and said that I got a fever. I said, 'You can't tell that I got a fever by brushing my arm. Give me a thermometer, I'll prove I don't have a fever.' She did and sure as heck, I had a 101 fever and my bladder felt like it was full even when it was completely empty. I'm feeling better now and I don't know if it was related to the shadow figure in my room or if it was an odd coincidence but I hope it never happens again.”

Beyond Creepy
NOTE: 'Shadow Figures' have been blamed for illnesses, and a lot of other maladies. In this instance, I believe that it was possible since most of these entities are malevolent. Lon

Invasive Tick Spreading in US
For the first time in 50 years, a new tick species has arrived in the United States — one that in its Asian home range carries fearsome diseases.
The Asian long-horned tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis, is spreading rapidly along the Eastern Seaboard. It has been found in seven states and in the heavily populated suburbs of New York City.
At the moment, public health experts say they are concerned, but not alarmed.
Although domestic U.S. ticks are a growing menace and transmit a dozen pathogens, no long-horned ticks here have yet been found with any human diseases. In Asia, however, the species carries a virus that kills 15 percent of its victims. Read more at An invasive new tick is spreading in the US

Audio Sheds Light on Westall UFO Case
In 1966, over 300 children and staff from a Melbourne school reportedly witnessed multiple UFOs silently flying through the sky before landing in a nearby field.
It is the largest mass UFO sighting in Australia, yet hardly anything was reported on it at the time.
Rare audio on Westall UFO Encounter - James E. McDonald talked to Westall teacher
Over the years, there have been differing reports about the details of what happened on April 6 at Westall High School, such as people claiming there were three saucerlike objects, while some thought there was just one.
In the 52 years since, there has been wide speculation about what people saw, with some believing it was an alien encounter and others pointing the finger at the government testing new technology.
Throughout all the years of speculation, however, one particularly interesting piece of audio has been greatly overlooked. Read more at Audio reveals creepy details of UFO mystery

Stench Plagues Utah City
WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah -- A mysterious odor is plaguing neighborhoods here.
"It’s terrible. It’s gross. I can’t even describe it," said Ronda Britton.
"Sometimes when you’re walking by it’s like death," Nicholas Britton added. "You’re like, what in the heck? You’re looking around thinking 'What the heck’s around?' Maybe an animal or something."
The foul smell has even reached West Valley City Hall.
"It’s kind of a sewer type smell," said Sam Johnson, the city's communications director. "It’s just a musty, sewer smell that is very noticeable and very unpleasant that you can smell in certain parts of the city stronger, but it even comes down here to City Hall."
For a year now, West Valley City leaders have been documenting complaints about the stench. A fresh round complaining about a ripe smell came in on Tuesday night. Read more at A foul odor is plaguing West Valley City and residents are being asked to ‘smell something, say something’
