The UFO's of Eastwind
By Robert Gay, Sr. | Submitted On January 19, 2007
Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article
My hometown was Little Rock, AR, where I lived most of my life. My son, Bob Jr., and one daughter named Becky, now live in the greater Little Rock area, and my brother and his wife reside in Little Rock. My other daughter, Kristy, and her family, live in Oklahoma.
My UFO sightings took place in 1988, while I was visiting an intentional community called Eastwind, which is south of Tecumseh, MO, and just north of a finger of the Norfork Lake. On one nighttime sighting, two crafts flew silently, less than 1000 ft. high, over a ridge out toward the lake. I was alone on my way back from a late swim in Lick Creek, which flowed north to south on the west side of the Eastwind property, then traversed west to east across the south end of the property.
There is no light pollution around Eastwind, and it was a beautiful star-bright night. I was about 100 yards from the south end of the property, facing south, when movement caught my eye out of the right, or west, sky. It was moving slowly, and were it not for the shattering stillness, the lighting configuration on the craft might have been mistaken for a plane.
It was far enough away that I could not clearly discern the shape, but the lights appeared fixed in place, not rotating. As it approached from the west and turned south, movement from the east caught my eye, and the same type of craft turned south and flew just to one side of the first craft. They flew soundlessly!
On the south side of the creek, a heavily wooded hillside arose steeply, and I had never been on top of the ridge, so I had no idea what was there, but that night, as the crafts flew above the ridge, two very large spotlights, like circus spots, were turned on and pointed straight up. By the time the lights were turned on, the crafts had drifted beyond the periphery of the lighted area, almost out of sight, so I got only a brief glimpse of the objects silhouetted against a bright starlit sky.
I was never able to ascertain where those spots came from, or who activated them, but I did find a road on top of the ridge, and pasture land across the road, with cattle grazing. Asking questions about the sighting at Eastwind was futile. A wonderfully strange core-group of people made up the community, and there was a fairly constant influx and exodus of visitors. The year I spent there is a priceless memory, that will be forever imprinted in my mind.

Hauntings of Dartmoor, Devon
By Angela Tempest | Submitted On April 15, 2014

Expert Author Angela Tempest
There are many exposed granite hilltops which are called tors and are home to a variety of wildlife and the entire area has a rich history as well as archaeology. The area is named for the River Dart, which leaves the moor at Buckfastleigh and enters the sea at Dartmouth.
Cranmere Pool
Cranmere Pool is a shallow pool on the eastern side of Hangingstone Hill near the source of the West Okement River and the East Dart River. It now lies within Okehampton Artillery range, operated by the Ministry of Defence. It is famous for being the location of the very first letterbox which was placed there by James Perrott in 1854. He was a guide across the moors and placed a bottle there for visitors to leave cards.
The pool features in the legend of Benjamin Gear, who was mayor of the town of Okehampton on five different occasions. He was accused of stealing sheep and as punishment ordered to drain Cranmere Pool with a sieve. Being a bit of a crafty sort, he stole another sheep and lined the sieve with its skin to accomplish his task. But it didn't do him any good as he was hung on nearby Hangingstone Hill for this misdemeanour. His spirit was condemned to spin the sand in the empty pool into ropes and since has been unable to do this, is still trying...
There is also said to be a figure who haunts the pool and can change his form into that of a black horse, though his identity is unknown. There were rumours of an exorcism performed on the pool, but that it failed.
Dartmoor Prison
I remember visiting Dartmoor Prison as a kid when our family lived in Devon, and I don't think I have seen a more desolate and forbidding spot since. The prison was built from 1806-09 using local labourers for prisoners from the Napoleonic Wars as well as from the War of 1812 with the Americans.
In fact, though the war ended in 1814, by March 1815 there were still 6500 American sailors imprisoned in Dartmoor, but their discipline created the model prison. They created their own governance and courts who dealt out punishment to any who misbehaved. They also had a market, theatre and a gambling room.
The prison was opened as a civilian prison in 1851 but closed in 1917 and became a Work Centre for conscientious objectors granted release from prison; cells were unlocked, and prisoners wore normal clothes as well as being able to visit the village. But by 1920, the prison became home to some of the worst offenders in the country. It is now a category C men's prison which is owned by the Duchy of Cornwall and operated by HM Prison Service.
One of the most commonly reported hauntings on the prison grounds comes from the graves of the French prisoners at the rear of the prison. Here a short man with long dark hair is often seen gliding along without touching the ground in the middle of the night. Even a now retired governor admitted seeing him one night while doing his rounds. He may or may not be one of the French PoW's who are said to haunt the prison itself.
Another ghost is a former prisoner called David Davis. He was imprisoned in 1869 and stayed there for 50 years, during which time he was given the duty of looking after the sheep. When his sentence was finished, he begged to be kept on as he didn't want to leave his sheep. The governor refused but joked he would keep the job open. Sure enough, Davis was back in prison two weeks later and died there in 1929. However, his spirit continues to tend his flock of sheep and has been seen many times following them around.
Jay's Grave
Jay's Grave is the supposed grave of a suicide victim from the 18th century around 1 mile north-west of Hound Tor and at the entrance to a lane which heads to Natsworthy. The story was given in the North Devon Journal on 23rd January 1851 that one James Bryant had been removing some soil near his home of Hedge Barton when he discovered a grave. A skeleton was found to be inside, and it was said to be that of a woman named Ann Jay who had hanged herself around 70 years previously and was buried at the crossroads, as was the custom at the time.
The folklore of the grave is that is always has fresh flowers on it, and sometimes other items including coins, candles, shells and even toys. Some locals, including author Beatrice Chase, is one person who admitted often leaving an item on the grave. But this does not explain the sightings by motorists of a dark, hooded figure kneeling at the grave in the night, glimpsed in their headlights as they approach. Perhaps this is the spirit of the man who caused Ann Jay to kill herself still suffering guilt for his part?
Other hauntings
A place as bleak and beautiful as Dartmoor is bound to acquire stories and folklore, and there are plenty. Some of the less detailed ones include:
Wonson Manor - the manor is in the village of Wonson and parts date from the 13th century. It was owned by the Nothmore family and is haunted by four Cavaliers who are seen sitting around a table, playing cards. One of them is identified as William Nothmore.
Wistman's Wood - the woods are home to Wish Hounds, who appear in the winter during bad storms and hunt lone wayfarers into mires and bogs under orders from the Devil. There are also reports of a group of figures dressed in white walking a path through the woods which was used for funerals.
Newhouse Inn - the inn stood on Widecombe Hill and was constructed by the Woodley family on the site of an earlier inn and was known as Culver House. It was destroyed by a mysterious fire 150 years ago and since then, a horseman in military garb has been seen galloping nearby as well as a coach and horses which slows at the ruins then takes off again at speed.
Bennett's Cross - the cross stands by the road from Moretonhampstead to Two Bridges, north-west of the Warren House Inn. The cross is thought to be a boundary marker between parishes, but it is judged to be of considerable age. Even the name is uncertain, either due to it being erected by the Benedictine Order or for William Bennet, a miner from the local area in the 16th century. Large phantom dogs are said to hunt the area and on one occasion, even killed the son of a farmer.

Is The Afterlife Real? PROOF! The 3 Strongest Types of Evidence For Life After Death
By Danny Fredricks | Submitted On November 21, 2012
Recommend Article Article Comments Print Article
Expert Author Danny Fredricks
What do psychics say about the afterlife? How about scientists? Is there any common ground... and if there is, what does the very BEST type of evidence in 2012 suggest about what happens to us when we die? In this article we are going to explore the idea that there actually IS amazing and overwhelming evidence that you have a soul... and that when you die, that soul or spirit or energy actually continues to live. (even if you're a complete die hard skeptic and cynic right now) Curious to know more? Continue reading as we take a closer look below!
The 3 strongest types of evidence, in my experience are very simple to communicate, and I'm going to share them with you below. Now be warned: There is an avalanche of information that suggests that we continue to exist after physical death... and any one of these on their own could be persuasive by itself. But, taken together, cumulatively... I think you have to be a hard core hard head to really dismiss all of the similar signs that point in the same direction. (often from very disparate areas like we'll cover quickly below)
1 - Near Death Experiences
People who have been clinically dead for a period of time and who report VERIDICAL (verified) information that is taking place away from their bodies is very, very common... and as medical science gets better, more and more people are resuscitated and brought back from beyond.
About 20% of people who have been clinically dead will report an NDE. More than 90% of NDE experiencers report losing their fear of death COMPLETELY... and are convinced that their experience was real.
2 - Death Bed Visions
More than 50% of all people who are near death will report conversations with friends and family who have already passed away... often very detailed, very interactive conversations that are nothing like hallucinations or imaginary experiences. Many people who have been sick for years, even with brain based diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia will suddenly "come back" in the moments before death... and become hyper clear, lucid and aware. (Ronald Reagan was well known to have done this, as was Steve Jobs) Most hospice nurses will tell you that not only do these experiences seem to suggest a spiritual world that most of us can't see in normal consciousness... but that they become believers after witnessing these experiences themselves.
3 - Psychic Mediums
Simply stated, there is no experience that can change what you believe about the afterlife faster, and more powerfully than having a conversation with a loved one that has past on. A psychic medium connected me with a close friend who had just passed on several years ago... and told me things that were 100% impossible to have guessed, made up or otherwise come up with on her own. This experience started me on a path from being a skeptic to a true blue believer... and I'm incredibly grateful that it did! (as opening myself up to the magic and the mystery of the universe has been the greatest gift I've ever given myself for sure!)
Warning! Don't get scammed by another "fake" Psychic Medium EVER Again!
