This is a very fascinating read, enjoy!

I heard these broadcasts Live as they happened; the Area 51 call was CRAZY and I remember the broadcast cutting off and sitting there listening to silence for a noticeable amount of time, it was a TRIP. Mel's Hole saga wasn't nearly as dramatic but still really interesting. I did however miss the show where supposedly the Area 51 dude "fessed up", anyone have details on that one?

I've had some pretty remarkable supernatural encounters throughout my life and one of them was published in a Haunted Inns & Hotels kind of a book this lady who owned the Myrtles Plantation wrote. She was a strange bird, but that's a whole another story. Coincidentally, I believe she had been on Coast To Coast AM talking about the Plantation hauntings the year before. Anyway, I sent it in to Art via his website for his Ghost show around Halloween (this was around 2003 or so) and then forgot about it.

I wake up the morning after Halloween or whenever the show aired and checked my voicemail to find that Art had CALLED ME at like 1am the previous night to tell my story on-air. "Hello this is Art and I'm calling for ....., are you there? You're on next if you're there...okay then". And that was it. I literally listened to his show every night since the 80's, I was devastated. He gave me no notice!

The terrible scream of "NOOOO!!!" that came out of me that morning haunts my wife to this very day. I saved that voicemail for years until I had to get a new phone.

edit for typo.

Maybe...maybe...

Worst fears realized. So what happens when the inevitable Big War happens and we don't have electricity anymore? No more history. Unbelievable that people are so short-sighted and stupid.

Oh this is going to be really exciting...

Never trust a mime. Ever.

Right then, so that's where our UAP's are coming from...

Where do you think the legends of Dragons came from? Yup.

Preface: I have many haunting experiences and this is just a minor but intriguing one. I've been collecting antique books most of my adult life and I have quite a few first editions by Mark Twain. Recently I acquired a decent copy of "Life on the Mississippi" - weathered, heavy, gorgeous. Anyway, almost immediately after I shelved it in my library, amongst the other Twains, odd things began to happen. Most notably, knocking/tapping sounds on the walls.

It happened usually in the late evening hours, after 11pm. It sounded like it was somewhere in my den, but I couldn't locate it. Knocks coming from the floor, the ceiling and random on the walls. Just loud enough to be noticeable. (I checked the attic to make sure there weren't any mice or coons or birds that might be around, but no)

So I did what anyone would do in that situation and snuck the book into my daughter's room (unbeknownst to her) and put it on her bookshelf to see what would happen.

About 3 days go by and my daughter casually says, at breakfast, "Dad, there's something in the walls or something, I keep hearing banging sounds". Okay, so it's not just me. I fessed up to her and she loved it, ha.

After about 2 months the activity ceased and didn't come back. I have books and ephemera going back over 200 years in my den and this is the first and only object I've had do this, surprisingly. (I thought for sure my Civil War letters would trigger something, but nope)

That's it, I thought some might find it interesting. They were controlled knocks/taps in different rhythms and sequences, it was very odd. My den Ring camera did pick up some strange things when viewing it Live: small light streaks going through the room, etc., but nothing we got too excited about.

Very ingenious. Hey France: take notes.
