The figure peers down silently from an upper floor of the ruins of a Scottish castle, wearing what looks like an outfit from the Middle Ages. Could this be a long-dead Scottish earl, or just a random, modern-day visitor?

The eerie image is captured in a photograph taken by tourist Christopher Aitchison in May 2008 at Tantallon Castle, which sits on a rocky outcrop along the Scottish coast, east of Edinburgh. The "person" appears to be wearing an old-style greenish ruff around the neck.

Aitchison insists he did not tamper with the image and cannot explain it.

"I was not aware of anyone, or anything, being present in my picture, only noticing the anomaly when I got home," Aitchison said. "Staff have verified that there were no sinister dummies in period costume or historical reenactments going on that day at the castle. I did not notice any nice old ladies wearing ruffs walking around the stairs!"

US: Pasco County, Florida residents report what felt like an earthquake

Hudson - The house was shaking.

Tina Newman knew what it was. An earthquake. She's been through them before, while touring Universal Studios in California decades ago and then again recently in Costa Rica.

This time, she was in her house on Donzi Drive in Sea Pines. The walls, the ground, the couch she sat on. They shook. Her dog, a Pomeranian mix named Wyly, jumped straight up. It was about 8:30 Thursday morning. The quaking lasted for about 15 seconds or so, Newman reckons.

She called her fiance, who was driving to work.

"Frank, did you feel that?" she said.

He said no and, to Newman's ire, it seemed like he didn't believe her.

So she began a quest.

Two Worcester men had the fright of their lives when they spotted a panther-like creature while walking their dogs.

The sighting has once again raised the spectre of mystery black cats roaming the Worcestershire countryside.

Wilson Hunt and Isaac Biddle were in a field by Grove Farm, St John's, on Saturday morning when something large and black in the undergrowth caught their eye.

The men went to investigate but the cat got up, jumped into the undergrowth and disappeared.

"It was definitely a cat but not a domestic one, it was huge," said stonemason Mr Hunt.

US: The Dulce Base - Fact or Fiction?

Dulce Base - level 12

Rio Rancho, New Mexico - Norio Hayakawa is a resident of Rio Rancho who believes that wild rumors may not always bring a bad name to a community or hurt it. Sometimes they bring curiosity seekers, and even tourism may flourish. Take, for example, the city of Roswell. And when it comes to the subject of UFOs, Hayakawa believes that there is a much more interesting area in New Mexico than Roswell.

According to Hayakawa, Dulce, New Mexico, a sleepy little town of less than 4000 (inhabited by the Jicarilla Apache nation), has attracted quite a number of UFO and conspiracy buffs ever since rumors surfaced in the mid-80s that a U.S./alien joint biological laboratory and base exists a mile under the town's Archuleta Mesa. "This rumor has become so well known among UFO buffs around the world that anyone doing a Yahoo or Google search on Dulce, New Mexico would find the bulk of over 300,000 search results related to the alleged underground base," Hayakawa said.

Three UFO low fly reports over Texas and North Carolina were recently reported to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

A man and his daughter at Medina Lake near San Antonio on March 25 watched as a silent, semi-circular craft with no lights or windows, hovered just 30 feet off of the ground at a distance of about 100 yards. The craft measured about 12 to 15 feet across, and 5 to 6 feet in height. The object tilted slightly before disappearing.

Four witnesses driving home from a restaurant watched a donut-shaped object at the rooftop level of nearby homes hover at a distance of 600 to 1,000 yards in Driftwood, Texas, on March 14. A peculiar sound from the object seemed to change pitch depending on the brightness of the object.

A man stopped his tractor trailer after observing a hovering object as he was driving east on U.S. Route 64 near the first exit for Nashville, North Carolina, on March 10. He said the object was between 75 and 100 feet off of the ground. He described it as a silent, triangular-shape, 40 to 50 feet wide, with two red lights at the rear and a bright white light in front. It was between 200 and 300 yards away. The object hovered, then moved above a shopping center for 5 to 7 minutes, and then moved away in a southerly direction.

For many years there have been rumors of black panthers or black mountain lions being spotted from as far away as Point Reyes National Seashore to Dublin, California.

The majority of the sightings have been in the Las Trampas Regional Wilderness by San Ramon, California.

While mountain lion sightings in this region are common, claims for black panther sightings cause a bit of a stir considering that cats like these in any habitat are extremely rare.

Dulce, New Mexico, from reported underground bases, to UFO sightings, to Archuleta Mesa sounds, has way too much going on. Dulce, New Mexico has been a spot for UFO sightings since at least the 1970s.

When you add in sightings of "entities" and reports of underground bases, it just leaves the senses to question - why, why so many reports, why so many unanswered questions.

First the UFO reports.

Wales: UFO sightings continue to occur in Wrexham


Evening Leader
Thu, 26 Mar 2009 22:03 UTC
A second person says she saw a set of strange lights in the sky above Wrexham on Sunday night.

Earlier this week, the Evening Leader revealed how a couple from the Sontley Road area outside Wrexham returned home at about 7.40pm to watch in amazement as five brightly-lit objects soared overhead.

At first, they thought they might have been seeing a helicopter until they realised the objects were completely silent.

The man said: "At first there was just one of them, then another two of these things went over our home, followed by another two.

"As they passed overhead some of them just seemed to vanish into thin air but one or two of them appeared to shoot off at high speed."
