Vampires

vam-pire: [vamp-pahyuhr] –noun 1. a preternatural being, commonly believed to be a reanimated corpse, that is said to suck the blood of sleeping persons at night.

Now one of my favorite unknown creatures the ever so popular: VAMPIRE.

Vampire folklore has been stretched through out history. From Romania to Yugoslavia to the first majorly famous vampire: Vlad Tepes aka Vlad the Impaler aka Vlad DRACULA.

With TV shows and movies like Blade, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Moonlight etc. Movies and TV shows like these are made to entertain people but, if you lived in places like Romania, Transylvania, Serbia back in the days when vampires where first coming about it
was no entertainment some people where seriously scared that they would fall victims to these at the time unknown creatures.




^Vlad the Impaler^

Many people are convinced that they are one of these cool but, also scared creatures but, I think if vampires do exist then I don't think they would come out in the open and say "I'm a vampire". That might lead to one thing: a witch hunt.

They are many famous stories of vampires from Vlad the Impalers who had a thirst for blood and favored filling people by throw there bodies on stakes.
To The Forsaken where 8 of 9 French soldiers who were left to die struck a deal with dark angel Abbadon; eternal life for their souls. They then killed and drank the blood of one of the soldiers to seal the deal. Ashamed of what they had done they couldn't look at themselves hence the no reflection or not going out in sunlight.

According to legend there are only 3 ways to kill a vampire.
1.Sunlight
2.Decapitation
3.Fire




Now again if anybody has any useful information about Vampires or Dracula please post in comment. If anyone post any inappropriate comments or links or if there is any inappropriate talk I will report that person. Thanks for reading. -M

2012. End of the World?

Mayans have supposedly predicted that the world will be no more on December 21, 2012. Okay, now here's where I get really defensive I can't help but think people are actually taking this seriously. Okay yeah it has me kinda scared but it's weird that thousands of people will believe a Mayans prediction but laugh when a psychic says a bus is going to crash. Now I'm not discouraging Mayan people I'm just voicing my opinion.  
My sisters friend parents who are REALLY religious said God was supposed to come to earth in like November 2007 or something like that and nothing happened. So I'm always open to people who say they can predict the future but is this really going to happen or is this just the rambling of so guy back in A.D? I don't think anyone will ever know until we get to the day 12-21-12. 

Locusts

Okay, I know that Locusts aren't unknown but they have so weird meanings with it. They said in the bible that Locusts were the sign of plague and my mother recently said that Locusts were supposed to hit this year. I also heard that in Greek mythology Greek philosopher Socrates said Locusts used to be humans but when they heard the Muses music they were so enchanted that they forgot to eat or drink so they dried up and died so the Muses turned them into Locust so they could sing all their lives. Weird huh? I got a photo of a weird bugs shell. A locust maybe?

Anyone know if this is really a Locust let me know.

Loch Ness Monster

One of the most famous crypto's ever documented the Niseag or Loch Ness Monster currently resides in the Loch Ness of Scotland. The monster had had many sightings but, became worldly famous when a picture came up it got the name "The Surgeon's Photo".

It was proven in 1994 the famous picture was a hoax.

That hasn't stopped people from visiting the now famous Loch to take pictures and videos of the famous monster. Many expeditions to find evidence of the monster or even the monster itself have been headed.
Many people have gotten what they believe to be the Loch Ness Monster on film.



No one knows for sure that Nessie is real, only that something is out there in the Loch. If anyone has any useful information about the Loch Ness Monster please post it in a comment. NO SPAM OR INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT, VIDEOS OR LINKS OR YOU WILL BE REPORTED.

Wow

Wow, my first blog. Well this isn't exactly my first blog ever. I thought I would tell everyone what this blog is about. The blogs I used to have were simply about me and my life well....no one ever visited (I'm crying as you read lol). So while watching a recent X-Files episode I thought "maybe I should be documenting on things that I'm interested in that I know other people are interested in and what else other than the UNKNOWN." So there's the short version on how this blog came to be. If anyone has any interesting videos or pictures or news articles of the unknown or supernatural feel free to post them in a comment. BUT BE WARNED IF ANYONE POSTS ANY SPAM OR INAPPROPRIATE COMMENTS OR LINKS THEY WILL BE REPORTED! Thanks for reading
