Mystery
The fall of Atlantis civilization
Since my journey to the world of history, the interest in the Atlantis civilization has increased over time. But, somehow I could not get the exact reasons for its vanishing event from the past without leaving any trace. The reason is that we don’t have any concrete evidence about the exact location of Atlantis and the information about its culture. Even, you will see that right now; we have a bunch of shallow assumptions which will never give us any chance to reach our conclusion. Rather, we are searching blindly through shallow convictions as well.
Agatha Christie's Vanishing: Revenge Against Her Husband?
Agatha Christie, the Queen of Mystery, the creator of the famous Hercule Poirot, vanished herself in 1926. This is no silly rumor like I thought. Oh no, it is very much true. And quite badass if you ask me! I'll tell you why later on.
Lizzy HeartwoodPublished 3 years ago in FYIThe Forgotten Mine of W.V.
In 1886 a loud explosion could be heard across the town of Newburg W.V., and a large cloud of smoke shot up almost 200 feet into the air above the town. The orrel mine had a disaster that caused many surrounding area's buildings to even take damage. Over 39 men and children where recorded dead, the true number is still not known due to unlisted immigrants. The youngest recorded death of the mine explosion is 12 year old William Timmons who was in charge of gate monitoring. During this time there where no child labor laws enforced so it was very common to see children working inside of mines. This disaster helped lead to the child labor laws that are enforced today. Strange deaths have also been tied into this mine Frank Laymire passed away in the explosion, his twin brother William Laymire who's brother was instituted at Weston's Trans-Allegheny Insane Asylum. He was never alerted of the accident and passed away after slitting his own throat according to records. Another strange death was that of Edward Edwards who drowned in the mine shaft after he somehow tripped and fell down a 160 foot drop in 1884. Below is one of the last known images captured of men entering the coal mine. We have to wonder is this the last time these men where photographed alive?
Erica RosePublished 3 years ago in FYIThe Melungeons: Appalachia's ethnic mystery
In the eighteenth century, land surveyors in the Appalachian Mountains reported encountering bronze-skinned, light-eyed people who fell to their knees in prayer five times a day. The mysterious mountain-dwellers, who lived far beyond the Western border of the thirteen colonies, referred to themselves as “Portuguese” in broken English. While their outward appearance suggested they were Mediterranean, the custom of praying five times a day hinted at Islamic roots. The French-speaking explorers, unsure what to call this mysterious community, described them as mélange, “a mix.”
Ashley HerzogPublished 3 years ago in FYIFour interesting things about the world you might not know
There are many such things about our world that have settled in our mind so much that we never ask questions about them. We assume that what we know will be right. But this is not necessary. Scientist Matt Brown, who writes about facts related to the world, in his book "Everything You Neu About Planet Earth Is Rong" (Everything You Know About Earth Is Wrong) mentions some things that you know about yourself. But to force a question.
Zeeshan Mushtaq LonePublished 3 years ago in FYIDid You Ever Hear About Aeroflot Flight 6502?
Do you ever get a horrid anxious feeling whenever you're about to get onto a plane, like you could crash or the flight could get struck by lightning? Ever get a fear that all the horrid, very unlikely things that you see in the movies could happen to you? Snakes on a Plane stopped me flying for years - great film though.
Are We Getting Closer To The Truth?
Being a bit of a sci-fi nerd after growing up in the age of Star Trek and Star Wars, among other fan favorites, I anxiously have awaited the true stories behind certain events in human history. Unfortunately, those events remain largely in the classified files or, if they made it to the notorious FBI Vault, are redacted, at times, so much that they can not be deciphered by normal everyday citizens. The why of it all is an intriguing question that people ponder as they look for answers. Journalists, researchers, politicians, and historians that have access to resources most of us don't have, file Freedom of Information Act requests and even lawsuits trying to force the information to come into the light of day. For most people, we have only our ability to read between the lines, local bar conspiracy theories to enjoy, and the hope that one day a president will see fit to declassify the truths past leadership deemed fit to hide from the taxpaying public.

The weather has been just beautiful here in Jellico. Myself and a few friends decided that we wanted to go exploring in the surrounding mountains. To be perfectly honest, I didn't expect to write about it. As our journey unfolded I knew that this was something that I had to document and share. We just kept finding some of the most strange and unusual things. We also found some down right creepy things.

Did they really find the lost city of Atlantis? And by the way who are they keep talking about? We need to find out who the heck they are? Anyway, once again, I digress, stay with me here.
Zeeshan Mushtaq LonePublished 3 years ago in FYIDo "past lives" exist?
Past lives and reincarnation: what was once a hokey New Age theory is now a viral TikTok trend. Using a YouTube video to induce a state of hypnosis, TikTok users are emerging from their alleged hypnotic state with wild claims. Some say they discovered they “let the Trojan Horse in” during a battle in ancient Greece; others say their past lives were more recent, and that they died on 9/11 or caused the death of Princess Diana in 1997.
Ashley HerzogPublished 3 years ago in FYIThe Science of Souls
What if I told you that reincarnation is a real scientific subject of study? Not kidding. Not too long ago, I read a book by Jim. B. Tucker called Return to Life in which he recounted his work, first under Ian Stevenson who died in 2007, and then on his own, to get to the bottom of why so many young children seemed to know things it was impossible for them to know about a past life they insisted they had lived.
