25 OCT 2024 · It is Bizarre News and Blind Rankings time again! This week, we cover:
Story 1 - A mysterious rectangular structure resembling a door was spotted via Google Maps on an Antarctic mountainside, sparking widespread speculation about potential hidden bases, ancient civilizations, or extraterrestrial activity. While skeptics suggest the formation is likely a natural geological feature or satellite imaging artifact, the discovery has reignited broader discussions about Antarctica's unexplored regions and what might lie beneath its icy surface.
Story 2 - A 20-year-old psychic medium from West Yorkshire named Hannah Rose maintains a collection of 14 allegedly haunted dolls, which she claims can cause paranormal disturbances including hiding objects and, in one case, scratching her arm. Having experienced paranormal encounters since age seven, Hannah dedicates herself to caring for these dolls through cleaning rituals and communication sessions, viewing her role as providing understanding homes for spirits, a calling she believes she inherited genetically from her similarly gifted mother.
Story 3 - While countless people worldwide report ghostly encounters, scientists explain these experiences through natural phenomena such as sleep paralysis, hallucinations, and the brain's tendency to misinterpret ambiguous sensory information. Historical research reveals that ghost stories have evolved from pre-1800s tales of spirits with unfinished business to more personal encounters in modern times, though the most commonly reported paranormal experiences remain unexplained sounds rather than full-bodied apparitions.
Story 4 - A 32-year-old Minnesota woman named Phoenix Nightingale suffers from acute intermittent porphyria, a rare metabolic disorder that causes severe attacks of pain and vomiting when triggered by sulfur-containing foods like garlic - the same condition that allegedly inspired vampire legends through its supposed connection to Vlad III (Count Dracula). Having endured over 480 excruciating attacks throughout her life before receiving a diagnosis last year, Nightingale now carefully manages her diet while advocating for better awareness of rare conditions, as she must avoid common ingredients like garlic that could potentially trigger fatal reactions.
Story 5 - A group of hikers in Chile inadvertently captured what appears to be a mysterious woman's face in their trail selfie, which subsequently gained viral attention on Facebook's supernatural community with over 1,400 likes. While some social media users were unsettled by the clearly defined facial features visible in the image, others remained skeptical about its authenticity, highlighting the common tension between supernatural interpretations and potential photo manipulation in modern ghost photography.
For Blind Rankings, we rank the top 7 WORST Halloween treats.

15 OCT 2024 · In this episode, we dive into the paranormal experiences of Jayd from California and Abby from Missouri.
Jayd's story begins in childhood, where she encounters shadow figures and communicates with spirits, including her late great-grandfather. Her experiences intensify after using an Ouija board, leading to terrifying encounters with malevolent entities and sleep paralysis.
Abby's tale spans several years and locations, starting with a ghostly encounter possibly linked to her grandfather's spirit. Her experiences escalate during a house-hunting trip, where she captures a disturbing image in a mirror selfie. The episode culminates with Abby's bone-chilling night shift at an assisted living facility, where she faces unexplained phone calls, moving objects, and the lingering presence of those who have passed.

27 SEP 2024 · It is Bizarre News and Blind Rankings time again!
**Trigger Warning: Child Abuse**
This month on Bizarre News, we cover:
Story 1 - A photograph taken over 50 years ago in Costa Rica, dubbed "the most convincing UFO photo ever," has resurfaced, showing a metallic disc floating above Lake Cote. The image, captured by aerial photographer Sergio Loaiza during a land survey mission, has puzzled experts for decades and remains unexplained despite close analysis from UFO skeptics.
Story 2 - Two women in Newton, North Carolina, face felony child abuse charges after two toddlers in their care suffered severe injuries, including burns, bite marks, broken bones, and tested positive for fentanyl. The accused, Emily Marie Edwards and her mother Sherrie Jean Edwards, bizarrely claimed that evil spirits and nightmares were responsible for the children's injuries, citing their use of an Ouija board.
Story 3 - A viral video from Chile appears to show a dog transforming into a human, sparking debates about whether it's a mythical "nagual" or simply a camera trick.Â
Story 4 - Ring, the home security company, has launched a "Great Ghost Search" contest offering a $100,000 prize for the most compelling paranormal activity captured on a Ring device. Open to U.S. residents 18 and older, the competition invites users to submit footage of ghostly phenomena, with entries judged by a panel including "Stranger Things" star Finn Wolfhard and paranormal investigator Katrina Weidman.
Story 5 - Researchers from Monash University propose that Earth may have had a rocky ring around 466 million years ago, lasting for tens of millions of years. This theory is based on the unusual concentration of impact craters near the equator during the Ordovician period, and could explain other phenomena like a subsequent ice age and the characteristics of meteorite debris found in these craters.
On the Blind Rankings side, Producer Ben has us blind rank our top 12 scariest entities.
