For a long time now, I've been reading up on a wonderful site called listverse. Very informative and entertaining, indeed.
HOWEVER!
I recently stumbled upon a list about "Modern Paranormal Phenomena", and several items listed struck me as odd...Here's the link, if anybody wishes to check it out for themselves: http://listverse.com/2009/04/24/top-10-bizarre-modern-paranormal-phenomena/
*cracks knuckles* Alright, prepare for wild speculation, bitches.
Time Slips
I believe several other bloggers mentioned this phenomena...didn't Jack Tyler say something like this happened to him? Or am I mistaken? And haven't those with "Slendy Sickness" frequently experienced this? ANSWERS PLEASE.
PANic in the Woods
This one snuck up behind me, knocked me out, and stole my lunch money.
If you don't plan on reading the article, it's described as "a feeling that there is a powerful, sinister force nearby, and sense imminent danger" that causes people to run back to civilization out of sheer terror. Another symptom that put up red flags? Immediate silence beforehand, save for "an unusual, escalating, buzzing sound".
Hint hint. Wink Wink. Nudge nud-IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS.
Black Stick Men
Remember the little stick figures you drew when you were little? How they were just so damn easy to draw, and looking back you said, "Dayum. I thought that looked humanoid?" Then you sent away for that infomercial art instruction set (hoping to go to art school and sell your drawings for multiple 0's while doing what you loved) that laid there on the kitchen counter untouched while you nommed Doritos and drew fan art depicting your favorite cartoon pairing?
Well, they're back and they're pissed. Or apathetic. The motives are a little fuzzy.
When I read it at first on the list, I thought "8D...wat?" and decided to look it up.
What struck me was the blank face, the size ranging from human to impossibly tall, their (dare I say it) SLENDER form, the time of day they've been spotted at, and their habit of following some people.
And then I read an account where one pressed it's face in the window, and my Mountain Dew besieged mind was officially blown.
So, if you or a loved one has witnessed kindergarten drawings from hell, accompanied by sick relatives, operator symbols in notebooks, problems with videocameras, and a stalker (preferably wearing a mask or who types ~~<3 at the end of every sentence), please contact me, and we can arrange a family reunion. OF DOOM.
And there's no way in hell I'm mentioning the shadow figures. He's not one of them. Shadow figures don't like to be seen. He doesn't give a straight damn.
And finally,
Black Eyed Kids
The picture on the article kinda made me jump...
So who else thinks that children with no whites in their eyes who seem almost hypnotically terrifying and demand entrance into your space sounds like a new breed of, to use M's term, "Hallowed"?
On another note, I think I found a good costume to scare the shit outta Lya...but I don't want to die over something so petty.
And...that's about it.
I'm pretty sure some people will probably get pissed at me taking the whole "stalked by a powerful being who kills people" with such light-heartedness, but trust me. Zeke didn't try to stay mirthful. Neither did Andrew.
I'm just laughing to keep from screaming.
Also, I don't think I've mentioned it yet. My birthday's the 23rd. I'll be 18 then...
