Drawn from wartime accounts, publications, and firsthand testimony, the legend of the Angels of Mons raises questions about what soldiers believed they saw — and how those stories spread in the aftermath of one of the war’s earliest and most desperate battles.

    Something in Croatia
    May 1 2026
    In a remote training area in Croatia, soldiers on night patrol reported a sudden and complete failure of their equipment — radios, lights, and vehicles all going dark without warning. What followed was an encounter that none of them could explain. Based on the account of a combat engineer who was there, the incident raises questions about what may have passed over the training grounds that night — and why those involved were warned never to speak about it.

John recalls a trip to a remote cabin in the mountains of New Hampshire — a place that seemed quiet and isolated, but quickly became the setting for something far more unsettling. Over the course of three nights, a series of unexplained events left a lasting impression on everyone inside the cabin, raising questions about who or what may have been moving through the house after dark.
