ENew Mexico: iLa Mala Hora

Ubucabanga ukuthi ngizobhala okuthile ngoRoswell, akunjalo? Ngenkathi ngithola izivakashi ezizungezile eziseNew Mexico zithakazelisa ngokuphelele, angikaze ngikuthole kuyisicefe. Ngisondela esihlokweni, esikhundleni salokho, ngomqondo wokumangala nokwenzeka. Esikhundleni salokho, ake sibhekise umoya omnyama owaziwa endaweni ngokuthi yiLa Mala Hora.

Lihunyushwe ngokwezwi nezwi, iLa Mala Hora isho ukuthi “ihora elibi,” nezinkomba nini lo moya othile ungabonakala.

Kuthiwa eNew Mexico uma uhamba ebusuku kakhulu, ungazithola ubhekene ubuso nobuso neLa Mala Hora, umoya omnyama omise okowesifazane ogqoke konke okumnyama. Angavela noma kuphi, kodwa abashayeli bayaxwayiswa ukuthi uma bembona empambanweni yomgwaqo noma kwimfoloko emgwaqweni, othile abamaziyo - mhlawumbe uqobo - uzofa kungekudala.

Vele, wonke umuntu uyamazi umuntu oke wabona umoya, kepha kunenganekwane eyodwa ephindaphindwa kulo lonke izwe kangangokuba isibe “yindaba emisiwe.” Endabeni, owesifazane ogama lakhe lingu-Isabella uthola ucingo oluvela kumngani wakhe omkhulu ethi uyahlukanisa futhi akenzi kahle. U-Isabella, vele, ufuna ukududuza umngani wakhe ngakho ubiza umyeni wakhe ongekho emsebenzini ukumazisa ukuthi ushayela eSanta Fe izinsuku ezimbalwa ukuqinisekisa ukuthi umngani wakhe ulungile.

Njengoba ehamba ibanga elide, inyanga iyaphuma futhi lapho ifinyelela imfoloko emgwaqweni, uthatha ngakwesokunxele kuphela athole owesifazane ogqoke konke okumnyama emi emgwaqeni. U-Isabella ushaya amabhuleki akhe kuphela ukuthola ukuthi lo wesifazane unyamalele. Ethukile futhi ezama ukuphefumula, ubheka ngakwesobunxele sakhe athole lo wesifazane manje egqolozele ewindini lohlangothi lomshayeli ngamehlo abomvu akhanyayo nesikhumba esiqhekekile.

U-Isabella ubeka phansi isigxobo segesi futhi akayeki ukushayela aze afike ekhaya lomngane wakhe. Ugijimela ngaphakathi futhi umngani wakhe wenza konke okusemandleni ukumduduza, kepha umtshela ukuthi akubonile kwakuyibika elibi.

Ngosuku olulandelayo, banquma ukubuyela ekhaya kwa-Isabella kodwa lapho befika, bathola izimoto zamaphoyisa emgwaqweni. Kubukeka sengathi umyeni wakhe ubekhuthuziwe ohambweni lwakhe lwebhizinisi futhi utholakale eseshonile ngesikhathi uLa Mala Hora evele ku-Isabella emgwaqeni.

I-Creepy kwesokudla?

Engikuthola kuthakazelisa kakhulu ukuthi izinganekwane zeLa Mala Hora zavela eMexico futhi zenyukela e-United States, zashintsha endleleni. Enye inguqulo yakhe yokuqala ihilela umoya ovela njengowesifazane omuhle futhi uheha izinsizwa ezinhle ekufeni kwabo. Yilokhu kufana okuncane okwenza le nganekwane yasemadolobheni ihehe kimi!

ENew York: ICrocsey

Ezinganekwaneni eziningi zasemadolobheni eziyingxenye yomlando omude waseNew York, zimbalwa ebezisabalele njengenganekwane kaCropsey ngekhulu elidlule. Umbulali (kwesinye isikhathi) oboshwe ngesandla uyindaba eyisisekelo ezungeze imililo yekamu lasehlobo, futhi abazali baxwayise izingane zabo iminyaka eminingi ukuthi baziphathe kahle futhi balandele imithetho noma uCrocsey angabathatha.

Kodwa yavelaphi le ndaba? Kulapho izinto zikhohlisa khona. Isibongo uCropsey besiyingxenye yeNew York selokhu amakoloni eza okokuqala kuleli. Kubonakala kubonakala kokunye okukhona okurekhodwe ukuthi uCropsey uthathe isimo senganekwane yasemadolobheni eqala isikhathi esithile ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-1800 / ekuqaleni kwawo-1900. Ngibalise enye yezinganekwane zombulali odumile eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule ngesikhathi ngichungechunge lwama-31 Scary Story Nights. Ungayithola leyo ndaba LAPHA.

Kodwa-ke, ngawo-1970, le nganekwane yaba nobuso obusabeka kakhulu lapho izingane ziqala ukunyamalala eStenen Island. Ngokuhamba kweminyaka engu-15 izingane eziningi zalahleka kule ndawo. Owokugcina, ngo-1987, kwakuyintombazane eneminyaka engu-12 ubudala ene-Down Syndrome eyaphuma iyozulazula futhi ingabuyi. Ngemuva kophenyo olunzulu, olufaka nendawo ezungeze iWillowbrook State School, okwakuyisikole sezingane ezinokukhubazeka ekufundeni okwase kuphenywe kaningi ngokuhlukunyezwa, izidumbu zakhe zatholwa.

Bathole isidumbu sentombazane endaweni yesikole eduze kwendawo ebibukeka njengekamu elincane okuzothi kamuva likhonjwe njengenye yezindawo owayekade eyisisebenzi uFrank Rushan owaziwa ngo-Andre Rand, manje ongenamakhaya, elala khona. URand phambilini ubephenywa ngokuzama ukudlwengula nokuthumba. Izisulu zakhe iningi labo bekuyizingane, kanti emphakathini, leli bekuyicala elivulekile nelivaliwe.

Ekugcineni, walahlwa yicala lokubulala kabili wagwetshwa iminyaka engama-50 ebhadla ejele, kepha abanye bathi, wayeyindoda engafanele.

Akunandaba, izinganekwane zikaCropsey yinganekwane yasemadolobheni engeke isheshe inyamalale. Isebenze njengesikhuthazo samafilimu amaningi nezincwadi ezibandakanya i-1981's Ukushiswa, ifilimu ehlanganisa imvelaphi ehlukahlukene yendaba futhi yathuthela isenzo ekamu lasehlobo.

ENorth Carolina: Indawo Yokunyathela KaDeveli

E-Bear Creek, eNyakatho Carolina ngaseHarper's Crossroads kunombuthano ocishe uphelele onobubanzi obungamamitha angu-40 obaziwa ngeDeveli's Tramping Ground.

Ngokwenganekwane yendawo, kule ndawo lapho uDeveli uqobo evame ukuza azungeze umbuthano ephupha ezazi izindlela zokuhlukumeza isintu, futhi abantu bendawo bayaxwayiswa ukuthi bahlale kude naleyo ndawo ngazo zonke izindlela.

Kunezindaba eziningi ezingajwayelekile mayelana nendawo yokunyathela. Abanye bathi uma ushiya into embuthanweni, izonyamalala ubusuku bonke, ingaphinde ibonwe. Abanye bathi akukho lutho olukhula ngqo embuthanweni, lushiye lungenalutho, lubukeka luyize.

Kwesinye isikhathi, umphefumulo onesibindi uzokhemela esiyingini ngokungahambisani nezinganekwane. Akekho umuntu owake wanyamalala lapho, kepha labo abanesibindi endaweni yokunyathela bavame ukukhuluma ngemuva kwalokho ngobukhona obuyinqaba, obucindezelayo phakathi kwesiyingi ebusuku kanye nemisindo yezinyathelo ezinzima.

Abalandeli bombhali owesabekayo uPoppy Z. Brite bazoyibona indawo. Kwashiwo ezincwadini ezimbili zombhali: Imiphefumulo elahlekile futhi Ukudweba Igazi, zombili zenzeka edolobheni eliqanjiwe iMissing Mile, eNorth Carolina.

ENyakatho Dakota: Lane Lady White

I-White Lady Lane eWalhalla, eNyakatho Dakota yindawo engijabulisayo njengomphenyi onamandla futhi njengomfundi impilo yonke yezinganekwane. Ngezindlela eziningi, izindaba ezixhunywe endaweni cishe zisezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu ekhaleni lenganekwane yasemadolobheni. Umoya wesizungu oboshwe esixwayisweni esijwayelekile sabesifazane abasebancane ngobungozi besilisa yisihloko esivamile esisibonayo ezweni lonke nasemhlabeni jikelele lapho kukhulunywa khona lezi zinganekwane.

Kunezindaba ezimbili zemvelaphi eziqondile okufanele sizibheke lapho i-White Lady Lane ikhathazekile khona.

Kowokuqala, owesifazane osemusha ogama lakhe lingu-Anna Story walandelwa ngumthengisi waseSyria ogama lakhe linguSam Kalil. Unina, owesifazane onobuhlakani, utshele uSam ukuthi uma engamvumela ukuba akhethe izinto zakhe uzomvumela u-Anna amshade ngemuva kokuba eseneminyaka engu-16 ubudala. UKalil wavuma futhi wabuya ngemuva kosuku lokuzalwa lwentombazane ngaleso sikhathi, umama wenqaba ukuyivumela ukuba ishade no-Anna.

Ethukuthele, uKalil wangena ekhaya wadubula u-Anna owayesagqoke ingubo yakhe yokulala emhlophe yefulaneli. Intombazane ishonele khona lapho kwathi uKalil waboshwa ngokuhamba kwesikhathi ngecala lokubulala. Umoya ka-Anna manje ubonakala kulayini, ebusuku kakhulu, usagqoke ingubo yakhe emhlophe egelezayo.

Kowesibili, abazali besifazane osemncane bathukuthele bathola ukuthi ukhulelwe engashadile bese bephoqa intombazane ukuthi ishade ngemuva kokuzalwa kwengane. Ngesikhathi ebuya emshadweni, esagqoke ingubo yakhe emhlophe, lo wesifazane uthola ukuthi ingane yakhe ishonile. Ephatheke kabi ngokulahlekelwa yingane yakhe nangeqiniso lokuthi wayeshade ngenkani nendoda ayengayithandi, waphuma waya eqhweni wazilengisa ebhulohweni. Abanye bathi basibonile isidumbu sowesifazane odangele silenga ebhulohweni, usagqoke ingubo yakhe emhlophe yomshado.

Njengakwezinganekwane eziningi zasemadolobheni, izinhlobo ezihlukile zalezi zindaba ziyaxwayisa abesifazane ngobungozi besilisa, yize ngingasho futhi ukuthi indaba ka-Anna ifaka nesilinganiso esikahle sobandlululo nokungathembeki “kwabokufika.” Kuyathakazelisa ukuphawula ukuthi i-athikili yephephandaba ikhombisa ngenhla ekhuluma ngendaba efana neka-Anna kusukela ngo-1921.

Akunandaba ukuthi ufika kuyiphi indaba, noma kunjalo, abantu bendawo bayavuma ukuthi i-White Lady Lane iyindawo enabantu abaningi futhi kufanele uqaphele ngenkathi ushayela ebusuku. Abanye abashayeli babike ukuthi babona le ntokazi igqoke okumhlophe eceleni komgwaqo kanti abanye bathi ngemuva kokuhamba ngayo, ivela esihlalweni esingemuva semoto yayo, mhlawumbe izama ukubaleka kule ndawo.

I-Ohio: Umgwaqo uWalhalla

Enyakatho yeColumbus ilele isizungu iWalhalla Road, indawo enokwehlukahluka okuningi kutrope legend evivinyiwe yasesidolobheni.

Kubukeka sengathi ngawo-1950, indoda ethile - okwakuthiwa igama layo nguMooney – yathatha ngobusuku obubodwa yahlasela unkosikazi wayo ngembazo ophahleni lwendlu yabo. Lo wesilisa wethukile ngemuva kokubuyela ezingqondweni zakhe futhi ebona ukuthi wenzeni, waphuma waya ebhulohweni eliseduze wazilengisa.

Lokhu kungenye yezinhlobonhlobo eziningi zale ndaba ethile. Ungafunda kabanzi ku- iwebhusayithi yeWierdUS.

Ngokwenganekwane, kusukela ngaleso sikhathi uMnu.Mooney uphindaphinda ukubulala njalo ebusuku futhi abashayeli bezimoto abazithola besemgwaqeni ebusuku kakhulu kubikwa ukuthi bahlangabezane nezehlakalo eziningi ezejwayelekile zokubona ukubulawa kuze kube ukubona isidumbu sendoda silenga ebhulohweni, hhayi ngokungafani noMhlophe Intokazi eWalhalla, eNyakatho Dakota.

Lokhu kuvama kwezindaba ezindaweni ezinegama elifanayo kungesinye sezizathu eziningi zokuthi kungani ngithanda izinganekwane zasemadolobheni! Ngabe omunye angaba nomthelela komunye? Ngabe le ndaba ihambile, yadlulela komunye umphefumulo olahlekile? Kunzima ukusho, kepha kuyathandeka impela!
