A mystifying aerial anomaly filmed by a motorist in Virginia, new developments in the saga surrounding the infamous Conjuring House, and an Indian man who claimed that his wife was a shapeshifter trying to kill him were among the weird and wondrous stories to cross our desk this past week.
In keeping with its prominent place in the proverbial paranormal zeitgeist in recent years, there were several stories involving the UFO phenomenon that made headlines this past week. A new study out of Canada determined the top states for spotting flying saucers, with Washington at the top of the list and Louisiana coming in last. In Virginia, a motorist captured footage of a peculiar-looking UFO that moved across the sky in a rather strange fashion. The sighting was so weird that the witness felt compelled to pull over to the side of the road to capture footage of the puzzling anomaly. Meanwhile, Representative Lauren Boebert's reelection campaign garnered considerable attention after it issued an email to supporters wherein she called for answers regarding UFOs and aliens.
The ongoing saga surrounding the Conjuring House in Rhode Island took two surprising turns this past week as the fate of the residence now seems more uncertain than ever. First, Andrea Perron, a member of the family at the center of the haunting associated with the site, called upon Jason Hawes, of Ghost Hunters fame, to help save the residence from falling into the wrong hands when it went up for sale this coming Halloween. While the paranormal investigator agreed to help with a GoFundMe campaign, it was subsequently announced that the auction scheduled for later this month had been mysteriously cancelled following the sale of the mortgage to a yet-to-be-identified buyer who may or may not now own the home itself.
By far the most bizarre story of the week came from India, where a man claimed that his wife wanted to kill him through a strange supernatural scheme. The weird case of marital discord came to light at a municipal gathering in which residents usually report mundane issues to local officials. Rather than raising concerns about a problem in the community, like a road needing to be fixed, the husband shocked those in attendance with a wild tale of woe. According to the man, identified as Meraj, his wife had been trying to take his life by transforming into a snake at night and attempting to bite him. While his fantastic story spawned ridicule on Indian social media, officials actually took the matter seriously and launched an investigation into the peculiar complaint.
