Billiards champion U.J. Puckett is said to haunt a south Fort Worth pool hall.

A gemstone ‘stained with blood and dishonour’ haunted anyone who owned it. This week it goes on show for the first time.
Some 34 years ago Peter Tandy, a young curator at the Natural History Museum, happened upon a jewel while working among the great lines of mineral cabinets. From a scientific perspective, the stone was nothing special, though its setting was rather bizarre, bound by a silver ring decorated with astrological symbols and mystical words with two scarab-carved gems attached. It was a typewritten note that accompanied the jewel, an amethyst known as the Delhi Purple Sapphire, that caught Tandy’s eye.

We could have alien origins, say scientists who sent fossilized microscopic life-forms into space and back inside an artificial meteorite.
The researchers attached the baseball-size rock to the outside of the European Space Agency’s Foton M3 spacecraft to test whether biological material could survive the round-trip journey.
Sculpted from stone from the Orkney Islands in northern Scotland, the rock contained fossilized microbes and the molecular signatures of microbes.

The little town of Glen St. Mary is in the middle of a bit of uproar. A cryptid is the talk of the town. A mystery ape seems to be about.

Several pilots offered dramatic accounts of witnessing UFOs — including a transparent flying disc and a triangular craft with mysterious markings — as they insisted their questions needed to be taken seriously more than 30 years after the US file was closed.

On a desert highway in Australia’s flat, dry centre is a petrol station by a watering hole where extraterrestrials have been stopping off for millennia, or so “witnesses” say.
