Something happened.

A sandhill crane, out of its migration route, with a seven foot wingspan and red ringed eyes. Combined with late nights, a spooky setting (the old munitions factory) and a dose of local hysteria.

Only an idiot would believe such a story.

No, you're thinking of goths.

More people in America believe in the devil and the existence of hell than the theory of evolution stuff like this helps explain that to me.

I really wish this poll was public so I'd know who to ridicule.

It's the same bullsh*t they pull in Salem, Oregon (and other such crummy towns who are famous for nothing more than bullsh*t stories) claiming to be haunted because of the witch trials while setting up business after business to cash in on the annual boom that tourism brings to the economy.

Whether it's the mothman in West Virginia, alien tourism in Roswell, Bigfoot in the pacific Northwest, or ghostly tours all across the south the purpose behind such "sightings" has always been to attract attention and income to a place that is otherwise undeserving of either.

Leave it to Bringer to on the parade. I don't believe these ghost stories/ prophecies but it's fun to suspend your logic and discuss these things as if they're real.

I loved the movie Mothman Prophecies with Dick Gere btw...

I have even less tolerance for bullsh*t paranormal/cryptozoology nonsense than I do religious quacks. If I were President I'd have everybody over the age of 10 who believes in ghosts gassed for crimes against intelligence and logic.
