Anglerfish - The male is around one inch long, it attaches to the female using his teeth for life and it eventually becomes part of her. For years it was thought they were a completely separate species

Stumbled across this video while scrolling through Facebook. Can anybody explain what is happening in this video?

We’ve all heard the claims. They all seem eerily similar, yet we don’t know what they are or if they exist. What do you think they are? Demon? Ghost? Vampire?

Took a different route home from my son’s jiujitsu lesson. Passed this house on a country road and had to do a u-turn to take a second look. Why are the dolls in the windows and what are they looking at? Did not want to get too close lest something attach to my soul.

This was about 40 minutes before we came home from a fourth of July party just now. Our dog doesn't just bark at anything and nobody should've been in the house. We have cameras at every entryway and we never saw anyone leaving. But they don't turn on until 10pm so if they entered the house before that the cameras wouldn't have caught it.

On the 21st of April in 1977, William "Bill" Bartlett, who was 17 at the time, made the claim that while he was driving, he saw a large-eyed creature "with tendril-like fingers" and glowing eyes on top of a broken stone wall on Farm Street in Dover, Massachusetts.
John Baxter, who was 15 years old, also reported seeing a similar creature on Miller Hill Road that same evening. Abby Brabham, also 15 years old, claimed to have seen the creature on Springdale Avenue, the following night.
The teenagers all drew sketches of the alleged creature. Bartlett wrote on his sketch, "I, Bill Bartlett, swear on a stack of Bibles that I saw this creature." According to the Boston Globe Newspaper, "the locations of the sightings, plotted on a map, lay in a straight line over 2 miles".
It has been suggested that the creature could have been a moose calf or perhaps even a horse foal. Local police told the associated press that the creatures reported by the teenagers "were probably nothing more than a school vacation hoax."
Loren Coleman who interviewed all witnesses at the time, coined the name 'The Dover Demon' and to this day, quite rightly maintains that this 'creature' is still considered to be, an 'unknown'.
