UFOs UK
A few UFO/mystery lights, news stories from local media around the UK.
Now the nights are drawing in, more people will be out when it’s dark so anything seen in the sky that’s not familiar may well get reported as a UFO. Stargazing apps are very useful if you’re not sure about an object in the night sky and there are others that can inform you of meteor showers, bright comets, satellites, the Space Station and planes.
Regardless of anything mysterious, exploring the night sky is a fascinating pastime and at a very basic level all you need is your eyes and perhaps a pair of binoculars.
Lets hope for clear skies. Have fun.

Supernatural UK
It’s October so that means Halloween is just around the corner. The nights are drawing in, there’s a chill in the air and it’s an ideal time to tell each other stories of the supernatural.
The UK for such a small set of Islands has an over abundance of paranormal activity.
Stories abound of ghosts, witches and black magic. A ghostly tale or two is usually to be found in even the smallest village and larger towns and cities have multiple haunted spots.
Castles, mansions, pubs, churches, old houses, airfields and roads are just some of the haunts of various spectres and haunted areas don’t have to be old either.
Our ghosts are not just of the human variety. Spectral dogs, cats, horses and even rabbits have been reported as well as a few coach and horses, motor vehicles and planes.
Many of these places have interesting histories regardless of any ghosts. Quite a few are open to the public, some that aren’t have special open days, others are hotels. Even if you’re not interested in ghosts, these places are full of history and well worth visiting anyway.
Have fun.
