Dybbuk,
Dibbuk - A malevolent spirit (usually a demon, but it can also be a
dead person that refuses to move on) in Jewish folklore, which aims
to possess humans. Modern accounts often referred to them as being
trapped in boxes (original/best known story involves a wine
box/chest). Opening such boxes is believed to release the spirit,
which can result in all sorts of haunting activity (usually demonic),
including illness and night terrors. The boxes are said to be
cleansed through burial and time, as the earth draws the dybbuk
powers away, likewise handling, moving, and buying/selling the box is
said to increase the dybbuk's power. Some skeptics believe the
haunting are psychosomatic, with the tales of haunting being passed
on from one owner to the next.
-
The best known of these boxes (a wine chest) originated in Poland,
and eventually wound up in an antique store in Portland, Oregon. The
shop owner (Kevin) bought an old wine cabinet in an estate sale (in
2001), not realizing its the source of the haunting he tries to give
it to his mom (who has a stroke and writes, “no gift, hate gift”),
and his brother (who returns it, saying it smells bad), then takes it
home (where everyone has the same nightmare). From there he is able
to sell it to a college student in Missouri. Who passes it onto a
medical museum curator (Jason Haxton in Kirksville, Missouri) after
his roommates complain. Jason tracks down Kevin, wondering if Kevin
had lied about the boxes past owner (because his grandmother was the
right age and ethnicity). Kevin agrees to help him look further into
the box's origins, and learns from Sophie that the women had been
involved in a series of séances, in which they try to trap the demon
(on Nov 10 1938 - Kristallnacht, causing Sophie to believe it cause
the Holocaust - and Jason would later find eugenics pretty much
started in his hometown). Sophie later manages to trap it in the wine
box, though the power is not fully contained. Jason builds an ark of
acacia wood and lines it with gold, to contain the dybbuk's power. An
alternate version of the story says the women summoned the demon into
the box to protect themselves from the holocaust, and that the
Haxtons tried burying the box, but it caused a sink hole, so they
reburied it inside the ark and a military box (at an isolated
farmhouse). Around 2014 he and his son (Ross) dug it up to be tested
for radiation and toxicity. None was found, and the box was reburied.
Activity includes; physical aliments (stabbing pains, headaches,
bloody eyes, vision problems, choking, welts, strokes), thrown and
smashed objects, electrical disturbances, communication device
malfunctions, gates locking themselves, heavy foul odors (like cat
pee) alternating with pleasant ones (like jasmine), shared nightmares
(walking with a loved one, who turns into a hag and beats them), the
box's doors opening on their own, a pulsating sensation from the box,
cold spots, shadow figures, and black flame-like mists.

Exorcism
- A practice in which evil or unwanted spirits (often demons) are
ritualistically banished. Catholic exorcisms follow essentially the
same recipe as Medieval exorcism; the sprinkling of holy water (with
the addition of salt in Medieval times) coupled with conjuration or
prayer. Other methods may involve; sage, oils, water and herbs,
honey, cups of water, screaming, and rebuke.
-
There is speculation that it is not the details of ritual itself, but
the focus details create that makes such activities work.
(The
Real) Exorcist House - Unlike the movie, the child in question was a
boy who’d recently lost an aunt (or grandma) he was very close to.
They’d used a Ouija board together while she was alive, and it is

activity started the family moved to St. Louis, but it continued so
they sought an exorcism there. Some people believe the demon now
resides in the St. Louis house where they lived, including the
exorcist’s niece and local paranormal investigators. Original
activity included; furniture moving, scratched flesh, and possession.
Current activity includes; temp flux including extreme hot spots to
the point of blistering skin, bad feelings, consistent bad luck and
failed relationships, smacking & cracking sounds, equipment
batteries drained, scary white sound spirit box hits, provokers
dropping off Kinect camera possibly due to humidity spikes, Kinect

Flannan
Lighthouse (Curse of the Flannan Lighthouse) - Over 100 yrs ago, the
three experienced lighthouse keepers (James Ducat, Tomas Marshall,
Donald MacArthur) all disappeared 1 yr after the lighthouse opened.
Joseph Moore arrives on the island to relive one of the men, but
finds no one there, but no sign of anything else wrong, and is
terrified. Superintendent Robert Muirhead goes to investigate and
finds no logs after the 15th of the December, and assumes they where
washed off the island by a massive wave (110 ft) while securing
equipment for a storm. However MacArthur's wet weather gear was still
on it's peg. Some believe it may have been some sort of sea monster,
such as Kelpies, Shonies, Blue Men of the Minch, the Stronsay Beast,
or even Nessie.
-
Moore's son said his father had a premonition of the men's death. A
dream in which he saw a campfire, but it wasn't there when he went to
it. He believed the spirits of Lusbirdan (a race of small men) may
have been responsible, and that the island and all on it are cursed.
The foreman died during construction, and another keeper died shortly
after the first three disappeared.
-
An alternative theory suggest that MacArthur may have killed the
other two. But no blood or murder weapon was found. Another theory
suggests Muirhead deliberately hid evidence, given that someone was
always supposed to say in the lighthouse, and he claimed they all
must have gone outside.

Flight
19 - Five avenger planes disappeared somewhere off Fort Lauderdale.
They seem to be having compass trouble and their radio signals fade
off, despite another pilot’s efforts to help them, 'fly west
towards the sun'. A 13 crew Martin Mariner goes to find them, but
also loses radio contact and does not return. A nearby navel ship
rushes to the location of a falling fireball (presumed to be the
Mariner), and finds only an oil slick on the ocean surface. A dive to
find them did not reveal the 5 avenger planes they were looking for,
but rather revealed 5 other avenger planes, that had all come down in
the same area of the Bermuda triangle on separate dates.
-
The flight leader (Commander Taylor) asked to be excused that
morning, but could not give a sufficient reason, and his request was
denied. Possibly, he knew he was having bouts of disorientation. One
of the students did not fly that day due to a bad feeling about the
flight.
-
A least one researcher believes the planes made it back to Florida
and crashed into a swamp.

Florida
Zombies (MacArthur Causeway Incident, Miami Cannibal Attack, Miami
Zombie, Causeway Cannibal) - A recent phenomenon in which multiple
Florida residents have gone into a rage and attacked other residents,
trying to eat them. Possible explanations include, new drugs and
disease. Specific incidents include; MacArthur Causeway
Incident/Miami Cannibal Attack in 2012, in which Rudy Eugene tore off
his clothes and ate homeless Poppo's face. The results of the
toxicology test showed no drugs that would account for his behavior,
though there are still some who believe 'bath salts' were involved
due to test limitations. In 2014 Tania Grien was chased by a Anesson
Joseph, who was displaying similar behavior, and her brother Tony
interfered and fought the man, stabbing him with a box-cutter. The
automatic gate pinned Tony, but their father came out an fought him
until he ran off. He tried to follow him, but the police got to him
first. His toxicology report also came up clear.
-
The CDC has released a statement denying the existence of such
zombies, as resuly of the MacArthur Causeway Incident, "CDC does
not know of a virus or condition that would reanimate the dead (or
one that would present zombie-like symptoms)."
