Most Haunted Places in Afghanistan

Most Haunted Places in Afghanistan

 

Afghan – Tajikistan border – Hindu Kush mountains – The “Ail”, feminine looking entities with floating hair, pale eyes resembling milky white orbs and glacier pale skin are said to inhabit the region whenever the suns rises so high, that you cannot see your own shadow, or at twilight. Even though they normally go on about their business, it is best to treat them with respect, since the Ail are known to be quite violent and hostile. That is why you almost never see any villagers or nomads out during those times in the day.


Kabul – Kabul University - It has been told that some of the abandoned dorms and abandoned classrooms were used by the Taliban to torture and kill people whom dare defy them. While some foreign aid workers were helping out on re-building Kabul University, it was said by many that they smelled the foul scent of rotting flesh, feces and other bodily wastes. Others said they also saw the entities of the victims that were tortured to death by the Taliban or heard screaming and crying in pain, when there was no one there.

In a drunken rage the Devil Dog broke the mirror in his room and slit his wrists with the broken pieces. From Marines checking in and out of that room since then, late at night if you look at the mirror you can see a Marine staring at you from the mirror.

Kanagawa – Atsugi Naval Air Facility – The Corrosion Hangar Bay - Located on the other side of the base stands over the old hangar used by Imperial Japan Kamikaze pilots. After Imperials surrender, many pilots killed themselves in this hangar for disgracing their nation..

There was one incident during watch in which a man dressed in a Imperial era uniform walked through the bay access doors and out the back exit.
Kanagawa Prefecture – field hospital – The hospital is an old field hospital located on a military base by the name of Sagami Depot. There have been reports of noises and individuals walking around in the hospital. The building is seldom used but at night when security checks on it they often find a windows raised or a door that ha been locked previously unlocked. The Military police usually have a new soldier go there to conduct checks his first night on the job. Many have reported hearing some one walking around inside. The Japanese have experienced the same.

Okinawa – The WWII Room - Witnesses have felt things touch them that were cold with no wind in contact.

Okinawa – USAF Storage Area - This whole island is haunted, mainly from WWII. One of the many haunted areas is in the Munitions Storage Area on Kadena AB. Along one of the main roads is a small clearing for people to stop and fish in the lake there or do whatever. It is reported that some nights when it’s foggy, people will be sitting at that clearing (security forces looking for speeders) doing whatever. They will hear noises like feet stomping on the ground. Then they will look out onto the lake and see a whole battalion of Japanese soldiers marching on the water. Then all of the sudden that person is surrounded by all the soldiers. Then they just disappear.Okinowa Experience

Tokyo – Akasaka – Weekly mansion Akasaka - There have been reports from many people that the weekly mansion building No.1 is haunted.  Many have seen visions standing at the end of their beds, white mists coming in through the air vents, the room becoming suddenly very cold there have also been reports of lights going out or coming on by themselves, television and radios turning themselves on and a feeling of someone stroking their heads while they sleep and even being pushed into the bed by some unknown force being forced into a state of being so frozen they cannot move.  One person even repirted being dragged from her bed to the other side of the room and then back again, she had scratches on her back the next day!

Tokyo – Outskirts - Outside Tokyo is a haunted mansion that was the basis of the game “Fatal Frame”. It is said there are other houses close by linked to the past of the mansion. People who have gone in there were later found by police with rope marks on their wrists, legs, and neck. There are also vast tunnels under this mansion but it is unknown what they’re for. Sometimes during the day you can photograph a small girl in a kimono in one of the windows

Tokyo – Square Building – A bluish male child wandering the halls at night. If he thinks he has been seen he will disappear.

Yokohama – Ikego – The middle gate - A World War 2 concentration camp. Where thousands of Chinese and Korean people were put to work and killed by the Japanese army. It is now a U.S. military housing Base. There are five incinerators that still stand today. It has three gates that keep it separate from the Japanese community. The Main Gate, The middle Gate and a back gate. At the middle gate, gate guards have experienced hearing voices, footsteps and a feeling of being watched. Some have reported a World War 2 Japanese soldier in a brown uniform with no legs between the middle gate and back gate.

Yokosuka Naval Base – Gridley Tunnel - This is a narrow, one way tunnel that runs through a hill from Gridley Lane to Nimitz Blvd. There have been numerous reports of people driving through the tunnel and seeing a man dressed as a Samurai. The reports are all similar, the people are driving through the tunnel when they look in their rear view mirror and see a man dressed as a Samurai standing in the road behind their vehicle when there was no one in the tunnel a moment before. Some people have been so startled by this that they have wrecked their vehicles into the side of the tunnel. The sightings are reported most often on rainy nights between midnight and 1:00am. The base newspaper, The Seahawk, once featured a story on this haunting.  The rumor is that the apparition is the ghost of a Samurai who was on his way to avenge the death of his lord when he was ambushed and cut down in the tunnel. Because he failed in his mission of vengeance he can’t leave his place of death.

Mantell UFO incident

Mantell UFO incident

 

The Mantell UFO incident was among the most publicized early UFO reports. The incident resulted in the crash and death of 25-year-old Kentucky Air National Guard pilot, Captain Thomas F. Mantell, on 7 January 1948, while in pursuit of a supposed UFO.
Historian David Michael Jacobs argues the Mantell case marked a sharp shift in both public and governmental perceptions of UFOs. Previously, mass media often treated UFO reports with a whimsical or glib attitude reserved for silly season news. Following Mantell’s death, however, Jacobs notes "the fact that a person had dramatically died in an encounter with an alleged flying saucer dramatically increased public concern about the phenomenon. Now a dramatic new prospect entered thought about UFOs: they might be not only extraterrestrial but potentially hostile as well.


Mantell was an experienced pilot; his total flight history consisted of 2,167 hours in the air, and he had been honored for his part in the Battle of Normandy during World War II.




On 7 January 1948, Godman Army Airfield at Fort Knox, Kentucky received a report from the Kentucky State Highway Patrol of an unusual aerial object near Maysville, Kentucky. Reports of a westbound circular object, 250 to 300 feet (91 m) in diameter, were made from Owensboro, Kentucky, and Irvington, Kentucky.
At about 1:45 p.m., Sgt Quinton Blackwell saw an object from his position in the control tower at Fort Knox. Two other witnesses in the tower also reported a white object in the distance. Base commander Colonel Guy Hix reported an object he described as "very white," and "about one fourth the size of the full moon ... Through binoculars it appeared to have a red border at the bottom ... It remained stationary, seemingly, for one and a half hours." Observers at Clinton County Army Air Field in Ohio described the object "as having the appearance of a flaming red cone trailing a gaseous green mist" and observed the object for around 35 minutes. Another observer at Lockbourne Army Air Field in Ohio noted, " Just before leaving it came to very near the ground, staying down for about ten seconds, then climbed at a very fast rate back to its original altitude, 10,000 feet, leveling off and disappearing into the overcast heading 120 degrees. Its speed was greater than 500 mph in level flight."






Four P-51 Mustangs of C Flight, 165th Fighter Squadron Kentucky Air National Guard already in the air—one piloted by Mantell—were told to approach the object. Sgt Blackwell was in radio communication with the pilots throughout the event.
One pilot's Mustang was low on fuel, and he quickly abandoned his efforts. Air Force Captain Edward J. Ruppelt (the first head of Project Blue Book) notes that there was some disagreement amongst the air traffic controllers as to Mantell's words as he communicated with the tower: some sources reported that Mantell had described an object "[which] looks metallic and of tremendous size," but others disputed whether or not
 Mantell actually said this.


The other two pilots accompanied Mantell in steep pursuit of the object. They later reported they saw an object, but described it as so small and indistinct they could not identify it. Mantell ignored suggestions that the pilots should level their altitude and try to more clearly see the object.
Only one of Mantell's companions, Lt. Albert Clemmons, had an oxygen mask, and his oxygen was in low supply. Clemmons and a Lt. Hammond called off their pursuit at 22,500 feet (6,900 m). Mantell continued to climb, however. According to the Air Force, once Mantell passed 25,000 feet (7,600 m) he supposedly blacked out from the lack of oxygen (hypoxia), and his plane began spiraling back towards the ground. A witness later reported Mantell's Mustang in a circling descent. His plane crashed at a farm south of Franklin, Kentucky, on the Tennessee-Kentucky state line.
Firemen later pulled Mantell's body from the Mustang's wreckage. His wristwatch had stopped at 3:18 p.m., the time of his crash. Meanwhile, by 3:50 p.m. the UFO was no longer visible to observers at Godman Army Air Field. The Mantell Incident was reported by newspapers around the nation, and received significant news media attention. A number of sensational rumors were also circulated about Mantell's crash. Among the rumors were claims that Mantell's fighter had been shot down by the UFO he was chasing, and that the Air Force covered up evidence proving this. Another rumor stated that Mantell's body was found riddled with strange holes. However, no evidence has ever surfaced to substantiate any of these claims. In 1956, USAF Captain Edward J. Ruppelt, the supervisor of the Air Force's Project Blue Book study into the UFO mystery, would write that the Mantell Crash was one of three "classic" UFO cases in 1948 that would help to define the UFO phenomenon in the public mind, and would help to convince Air Force intelligence specialists that UFOs were a "real", physical phenomenon (Ruppelt 30). The other two sightings were the Gorman Dogfight and the Chiles-Whitted UFO Encounter.

India : Ancient Rock Sculptures Discovered in Sindhudurg District, Maharashtra

India : Ancient Rock Sculptures Discovered in Sindhudurg District, Maharashtra

Rock sculptures dating back to between 4,000-7,000 BC have been found in a well-preserved condition in the forests near Kudopi village in Sindhudurg district of coastal Konkan region..

There are more than 60 big and small images of Mother Goddess, birds and animals, found in a single location of around 20,000 square feet, considered one of the biggest such concentration anywhere in the country, Satish Lalit, leader of an expedition team which made the discovery last May.

"Though similar carvings have been found in other parts of India, this is the first find on a red soil laterite plateau. These are petro-glyphs unlike the picto-graphs found in places like Amravati," Lalit, a member of Rock Art Society of India (RASI).

With this significant historical find dating back to over 6,000 years from now, Sindhudurg district, around 490 km from Mumbai on the Maharashtra-Goa border, will be catapulted onto the global rock-art map.

Last week (Nov 17) Lalit, who is also the media advisor to Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan, presented his findings before the RASI's 17th National Congress held in Badami, Karnataka.

Eminent historian Sundara Adiga described the findings as "unique and very beautiful" pieces of art.

"The findings, in terms of the variety, the depiction, art and sheer beauty are incomparable, of world class. They provide an insight into the human development in that age and must be preserved carefully," Adiga said at the congress.

Lalit explained that the manner in which the rocks have been carved indicate that they belong to the Neolithic era which flourished in southern Asia between 4,000-7,000 BC.

"The most striking carving is of a 15-foot tall Mother Goddess with all the internationally known symbols indicating her status. During that era, women were accorded a very high social status, were revered and worshipped by human tribes," he added.

In 2002, Lalit had discovered another site of hard rock carvings in Hivale, Sindhudurg. And similar sites have been found in Goa, Wirdi, Khanavli, and Nivli in Ratnagiri district, indicating the possibility of a 'lineage' of such art.

The site was discovered after several trips in the deep forests and mountains following valuable tips given by villagers.

Betty and Barney Hill Alien Abduction (1961)



Betty and Barney Hill Alien Abduction (1961)


On the night of September 19th, 1961 a mixed-race couple, Betty and Barney Hill, from Portsmouth, New Hampshire witnessed something which shaped the modern extraterrestrial folklore. At around 10:30 p.m. the couple was on their way home from a vacation in Niagara Falls and Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Betty noticed a bright sphere of light in the skies while Barney navigated U.S Route 3. She initially thought the object was a falling star, but oddly it shifted upward, just like an airplane or a satellite. As it grew bigger and brighter and moved erratically, the couple stopped the car at a scenic picnic spot just to the south of Twin Mountain. Betty took binoculars and observed a unfamilliar craft flashing multicolored lights. In the meantime, Barney retrieved a handgun that he had hidden in the trunk of the car. Suddenly, the object swiftly descended in their direction and they realized that the object in question was not an accustomed phenomena. They quickly jumped into the vehicle and drove toward a narrow, isolated, hilly stretch of the road – Franconia Notch. The couple drove very slowly to observe the object, which approached even closer to their location. The craft was moving erratically and bounced back and forth in the night sky. Eventually, a mile south of Indian Head, the object swiftly descended toward their vehicle causing Barney to stop the car in the middle of the road. Just approximately 100 feet above the Hills’ 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, the massive, noiseless object hovered and filled the entire field of the car’s windshield. With the handgun in his pocket, Barney
moved away from the car, closer to the craft.

Using the binoculars, he was able to see about 8 to 11 humanoid characters who were looking at him out of the craft’s windows. One of the figures allegedly even communicated a message to Barney telling him to “stay where you are and keep looking”. Barney frightened for his live, took the binoculars from his eyes and ran back to his car. He drove away at a high speed, asking his wife to look for the craft. Betty rolled down the window and looked up and observed solely darkness above them, although it was a clear, starry night. At that time, the vehicle began to vibrate and Hills heard a rhythmic group of buzzing or beeping sounds which bounced off the trunk of their car. They then heard the second series of identical sounds, realizing they were suddenly 35 miles farther down the road compared to a minute ago. They were now in Ashla.
The Hills eventually arrived home safely. They were exhausted and instantly went to sleep. When Betty woke up the following day, she telephoned her sister, Janet and told her about the unusual event they witnessed. Janet advised her to call Pease Air Force Base and report what they have experienced. After hearing Betty’s report, Major Paul W. Henderson, confirmed that The UFO was also discovered by their radar. Among many strange consequences subsequent to the alleged alien abduction (broken watches, the torn leather strap for the binoculars, strange pinkish powder on her dress damaging it irreparably, shiny, concentric circles on their car’s trunk, nightmares etc.) the couple decided to contact a Boston psychiatrist and neurologist, Dr. Benjamin Simon. Famous in his field, Dr. Simon suggested a regressive hypnosis treatment, which might ideally uncover the memories of the two missing hours of time. After 6 months of therapies, Simon expressed his opinion that Betty and Barney Hill had been abducted and brought onboard a mysterious craft. He played an important role in their abduction story and with the latter statement he elevated the credibility of their testimonials.

Some of the memories that were later unveiled include extraterrestrials comming to their car, carrying the Hills onboard the craft, performing various medical and scientific tests on them and before releasing them, Betty and Barney were hypnotized and directed to keep their abduction as a secret. Further, the couple described their captors as “… bald-headed alien beings, about five foot tall, with greyish skin, pear shaped heads and slanting cat-like eyes.” Needless to say, subsequent to the event a number of sceptics suggested the Hills’ hypnotherapy triggered confabulation – the blending of fantasy with memory – arguing that recovered memories are unreliable. However, a thing that critics were not able to explain is that Betty could draw a detailed sketch of the Zeta Reticuli star system which is in the Reticulum constellation, six years prior to astronomers even discovered it.
This event has turned into a milestone case in the UFO folklore and it is still researched and discussed today. The significance of the Hills’ abduction encounter cannot be over-emphasized. It altered the concept of ufology for good.More in the video below.
