My favorite Cryptids

Below: Sketch of the Dover Demon by witness, Bill Bartlett.

Bill Bartlett's sketch of the Dover Demon

A cryptid is a creature that might exist but it is not proven. Cryptozoologists are among the people who believe these creatures may be out there somewhere. Arguably the most well known example of a cryptid is Bigfoot. This is a list of my personal favorite cryptids!

Max Headroom Incident

Also called the Max Headroom signal hijacking.

On the night of November 22, 1987, thousands of unsuspecting home viewers were subjected to one of the most bizarre pirate broadcasts in television history. An unknown person wearing a Max Headroom mask hijacked two TV stations in Chicago, IL. At 9:00 PM the sports segment of WGN-TV's news broadcast suddenly cut to one of the perps, swaying from side to side in front of a disorienting black and white striped background. There was no sound, other than a loud buzz.

The perpetrator of Max Headroom Signal Hijacking, during the broadcast

After about 17 seconds, the station was able to regain control of their signal. When the broadcast cut back to business as usual, sportscaster Dan Roan said to viewers, "Well, if you're wondering what happened, so am I."

The second intrusion lasted much longer and was much creepier. At about 11:20 PM, during WTTV's broadcast of a Doctor Who rerun, "Max Headroom" struck again. There was no one on duty at the affected broadcast tower, giving the perps ample time to cause chaos and confusion. About a minute and a half's worth to be exact.

The voice of the person in the Max Headroom mask was distorted and creepy, spouting strange and random phrases and humming the theme from Clutch Cargo, a low budget animated show that aired from 1959-1960. Some people use this air date as a way to try to figure out the perpetrator's relative age. He would've had to be old enough to remember Clutch Cargo. He seemingly taunted WGN, the station where the previous intrusion occurred, calling sportscaster, Chuck Swirsky a, "frickin liberal" and referring to WGN as, "Greatest World Newspaper nerds." There were also some weird sexual jokes and references, and the intrusion concluded with "Max" saying, "They're coming to get me!" as a woman dressed in a maid outfit struck his ass repeatedly with a flyswatter. The woman's face was not visible, but she could be heard yelling, "Bend over, bitch!" Her voice was also distorted.

Static. And then the Doctor Who broadcast returned as normal.

Scarily enough, in order to have hijacked the affected stations' broadcast towers, the perpetrators would've had to send out a more powerful microwave transmission than the stations were sending themselves. That's no easy feat, even back then during the days of analog television. Whoever did this would've needed extensive technical know-how and the equipment to send out a highly powerful transmission to override the ones sent by the established stations. It is for this reason that many people think the stunt was pulled by members of Chicago's underground hacker community at the time.

Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the perpetrators were never identified or caught. They faced a fine of up to $100,000, but now due to the statute of limitations, that has expired, so if they were caught today, no charges could be pressed against them.

D.B. Cooper

On November 24th, 1971 a man who called himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305. The plane was headed from Portland, Oregon to Seattle, Washington. Cooper was average looking, in his mid 40s and dressed neatly in a business suit and tie. He had with him a black briefcase and a paper bag. Before takeoff he had politely ordered a bourbon and soda. Not long after takeoff, he handed a note to the flight attendant, Florence Schaffner. She didn't immediately read it, but he warned her that she should, saying, "Miss, you better look at that note. I have a bomb."

Internet Mysteries

Below is a list of rabbit holes. Each one of these mysteries can send you on an entire week's worth of fixation, or even longer than that. So feel free to research them at your leisure. But be careful not to stray too far down the rabbit hole...

The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet - A song that no one can identify. Sort of like reverse lost media. EDIT: On November 4th, 2024, the Most Mysterious Song on the Internet has finally been found!!! A 17 year long internet search has been put to rest. The song is Subways of Your Mind, by FEX. Very exciting day for us lost media nerds!!!!!!

Alex from Tennessee - A series of unnerving 4chan posts about a "prize" to be found in an abandoned building.

Who wrote My Immortal? - You know, the infamous Harry Potter fanfiction? Not scary, but definitely a very bizarre mystery, and one that is somehow still unsolved after all these years.

Cicada 3301 - A series of weird puzzles from an organization claiming to be looking to recruit "intelligent individuals". From my understanding, the most recent puzzle is still unsolved, and no one really knows the intent of this group and what it wants to recruit people for. Or if it's even real or just an ARG. What I do know is that these puzzles are advanced as hell.

Markovian Parallax Denigrate - This is widely regarded to be the first internet mystery, dating back to 1996, where hundreds of gibberish messages were posted to Usenet with the subject Markovian Parallax Denigrate. No one knows why, or by who.

John Titor - In 2000 and 2001, a man made a bunch of posts on early internet forums, claiming to be a time traveller from the year 2036. He made several big claims about the future. He also wrote in detail about his time machine and how it worked.

station.exe - A mysterious game uploaded to 4chan (of course). It looks oddly simple at first, just the player walking around a rudimentary building. But at some point, weird floating heads appear and follow the player. There are coordinates written on the building, and typing them into google earth takes you to... the building from the game. It's real and in Russia. Just a tiny, empty, likely abandoned building in Russia. I'm fairly certain it's a military building as well. There is less info about it online than I remember.

So Joana Book - This mystery began when a redditor posted this on r/RBI. OP bought a seemingly innocuous 1950s travel book at a thrift store. But upon looking inside, they found that the previous owner had filled the book with handwritten ciphers, symbols, and coordinates. Here are the pictures and scans of the book OP included in their post.

Spooky games

Basilisk - 2000 and Basilisk - SNES - An unfinished successor to an unreleased super nintendo game, respectively. You can piece together the story of what went wrong at the development studio by exploring both games. The 2000 version allows you to explore the game through its level editor, to see it just as the developers did over 20 years ago. The games are posted on itch.io, where it's stated they were saved from becoming lost media thanks to fans who created emulators to run them. Apparently the scope of Basilisk 2000 became too much, and something very sinister happened on the development side... or did it? Either way, the studio is gone and the game was never finished. This story isn't cut and dry at all, so why not take a shot at trying to figure it out?

Squirrel Stapler This game is... an experience. The whole time I played this, I didn't know whether to laugh or to scream or to be very, very concerned. I would suggest you play it yourself. It can't really be experienced any other way. It's not that I would spoil anything by explaining it; it's more the other way around. It's the kind of game that you can't describe with mere words, because it's so, so weird. You have to play it to understand it. All I'll say is it's a hunting simulator. You play as an isolated man living in a rustic cabin. And you staple squirrels… to your wife. Who’s a corpse.

Horror Movies I've Seen

Ah, yes, I really like horror movies, but I watch them less than I used to. I went through a phase in high school where they were all I watched, because I thought everything else was boring. Once I exhausted the list of classic horror I could watch, I started resorting to some weird, low budget, less known movies that were mostly trash. Below is a list of horror movies I have seen!

I have a soft spot for schlocky horror and slasher movies, especially if the special FX are terrible. Sometimes I find it almost more visceral in a way, if the movie is poorly done or low budget. It feels more human, more raw, more "where the hell did this come from?"... But usually it's just funny.

Some of the Weirder Ones...

Eaten Alive (1976) - My college friend found it in a discount bin somewhere. I don't remember the store, but they were practically giving it away. Me and a group of friends watched it. It was weirder than any of us could've imagined. The way it was shot was very odd... we couldn't tell if it was a work of artistic genius or completely terrible. It gave off both vibes at the same time. It starts with a very disturbing SA scene we ended up skipping through. The movie is about a redneck who keeps a crocodile in his rundown hotel...? Takes place in the deep south.

Dead End (2003) - It was odd and low budget, but I found it pretty scary in a psychological way.
