Bigfoot Proof?

I'm a huge skeptic of most of the paranormal/supernatural genera but I find cryptos to be the most plausible since every year science is still finding more species of life. 


I'm also a big fan of Les Stroud and his show Survivor Man.  Not really a fan of his harmonica but I have respect for his skills.  However the Survivor Man: Bigfoot series really left a bad taste in my mouth and kind of lowered his credibility with me.  During the time this was made bigfoot hunting programs were very hot and it seemed more like an attempt at a cash grab.  He often seems a little uncomfortable with what he is saying.


Here Les tries to show what he is calling proof by showing the odd conglomeration of fallen trees that he is calling a bigfoot signpost.  He's saying how could a winter storm make the trees fall in this way?  It sounds like his assumption is this all happened during one event but realistically this could have happened over a number of years.


The other issue I have with this is even if you were a bigfoot why would you expend so much energy moving these huge trees just to say, "Berries this way?"  Wouldn't it be something far more subtle?  Even for a large ape that's a hell of a lot of work.


I feel it was just a sequence of tree falls.

The Nocturne Society URL is Going Away

FYI: www.nocturnesociety.com is going away. I'm keeping the blog, twitter, etc but I really don't see a use for the url anymore.

Ghost Screaming in Room 209

I'm sure most people have seen this video before.  If you haven't the story is that people were complaining to management about a woman screaming in one of the room that had no assigned occupant.  An employee is sent to investigate.  He is able to confirm he hears screaming and opens the room to find nobody.  The furniture is overturned, rug is torn, shower is running.  Ghostalkers does an excellent job of dissecting the video and asking showing some real holes.

As the viewer we really see nothing and are left to rely on the audio as fact.  Personally I find the floating apparition a bit over the top.  Also I would believe it more if there wasn't a music track.  In my opinion this video is a hoax because nothing has ever been confirmed.  Not the people in the video, not the police report, not even the hotel where it happened.  But it's still really fun to consider what if it wasn't fake?

Sounds Recorded While Sleeping

Sounds picked up on sleep recording apps. I never knew these apps existed. Might want to give it a try.  Most of them are kind of lame but it would be fun to play with.

Another Strange Sound in an Abandoned Mine

I've become quite interested in watching the Exploring Abandoned Mine channel on YouTube.  I've watched a lot of them and here is another video with a strange occurrence. At 7:32 there appears to be a intercom call. https://youtu.be/yCy8iWxf1Us?t=7m32s

For my cynical mind this seems too perfect. An abandon mine that has no power but he hears haunting echoes of intercom calls so it’s a bit suspect. However if you look at his channel there are hundreds of videos going back 9 years. Very few of them make claims that there is anything spooky going on so making over hyped fake videos is not his focus. He seems to legitimately enjoy mine exploration for the sake of mine exploration.


I can accept some people aren't of my curious mind but if I heard that I would have a hard time leaving.  I would be driven to know what was causing it.  I do agree that mines are extremely dangerous and the thought (as one commenter suggests) that it's a warning call before blasting would certainly concern me.  You never know what the plans are for a place that you're exploring without permission.  I know some States are attempting to collapse abandoned mines to prevent this kind of exploration.


Regardless if it's real or not it is certainly interesting.

Strange Sound in Abandon Mine

A man reviewing a flashlight decides to do so in the pitch black of an abandon mine.  He seems relatively confident even with tons of rock above his head.  But then at 12:08 he starts to hear some creepy whispering sounds which stop and start again.  That prompted him to leave.

The skeptic in me would say it could be some sort of echo from his footsteps or his own voice since it seems to stop as he stops walking and talking.  It certainly doesn't sound like the echo of footsteps. What do you think it is?  Frankly I've watched The Decent too many times.

American Loch Ness??

I'm sure it's just a sturgeon or a rope like they suggested but still it looks pretty cool.
