    I just love that that lady absolutely fucking kicked her own dog and then to cover for herself she said a ghost did it and things got out of hand and now she's making money off the dog kicking ghost she made up

    seriously, how fucking credulous do you have to be to go "it was clearly a ghost that did this and not just some shitty animal abuser"

    From the description it sounds more like she had a sleep paralysis episode, no dogs were kicked at all.

    I thought I saw a Black Shuck yesterday at the cemetery, early evening, visiting my Poppy. it let out the most intimidating bark and started hauling ass at me, and I was just like "can't outrun a ghost dog, why bother."

    but luckily it was actually some kind of all black mastiff mutt who was a slobbery good boy who knew not to jump up and to sit for pets.

    There used to be folklore that when you established a new cemetery, the first person buried there is kinda conscripted into helping newly dead to the afterlife and keeping the cemetery safe from evil spirits and such.
    To avoid subjecting people to this weird purgatory, they'd bury a dog there first. Its spirit would become the guardian of the cemetery instead, which I think is where the whole Black Shuck thing came from.

    besides me and the dog, the cemetery was empty, so I assumed that was the situation here.
    After petting and compliments, he followed me to the short stone wall that borders the cemetery (there's a good parking spot along the side and I just jump the wall) and then sat down and watched me leave.

    A+ would pet again, glad my Poppy's bone orchard has a good lookout.

    i found out netflix japan has done a series of The Grudge called Ju-On Origins and binge watched it a few days ago. I liked it but it ends with little to no explanation and on a cliffhanger and there's no season 2 so far. so now i'm angry.

    also literally all the trigger warnings holy crap there's so much sexual violence it's just insane

    that show had the first horror effect that actually scared me in a long time
    when they rotoscope that lady so she's just a featureless black void but still has eyes and shit, that unnerved me.

    I am not going to link it but there is a Kickstarter for an FMV horror game, called "Ghosts" and nothing more, with creature design by Trevor Henderson who created Siren Head. It has until May 7th.

    More spooky UFO or UAP, depending on your chosen nomenclature, videos from the Pentagon, and an uncomfirmable tidbit at the end from the reporter there where he alleges that a Pentagon contact of his says these videos are among the least compelling pieces of footage the military has.

    Just got home from camping! We were all packed up and just about to pull out, when I turned around and this deer was standing there. I got a picture of it standing perfectly still and I know this is just camera funkiness, but we went with it like oh no the forest has said this is our one chance to leave etc.

    I took Lola on the trail once and like 14 grey deer were just hanging out at the far end.
    Ive never seen a grey deer in my life and despite her clear desire didnt feel like Lola needed to taste their flesh. So I picked up my 90 pound dog and walked her home.

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

    I'm seeing an extremely blurry photo.

  • PinfeldorfPinfeldorf Yeah ZestRegistered User regular
    Anyone who sees a normal photo there? I question whether you know what a deer should look like.

    Cuz that's not what a deer should look like.

    speaking of ghost elmo i watch both IT movies back to back last night and surprisingly really liked them. i'm really excited for the rumored supercut to come out despite it being promised for like three+ years now

    I'm curious about the mechanics of how my phone camera mangled that deer so poorly. It wasn't moving, and I held the phone steady, it was low light with a lot of moisture in the air.

    Here's a deer from the earlier on the same trip, same camera.

    It's not the phone. That deer was just an unstable anomaly.
