UNHEARD GHOST STORIES (Part - 1)

INVISIBLE BIRDS :-

In 1974 , Trevor James of America took photographs of the space with his special I.R 135 camera using infra-red technology . Prior to this he had taken infra-red photographs of the sky over many deserts .

In these photographs ,many birds were clearly visible that are now extinct . The scientists couldn't arrive to any conclusion , as to how could these  birds , that  are supposed to have been extinct for thousand of years , appear in these photos.

Marriage with Ghosts :- 

The unmarried girls amongst the sabara tribe in Madhya Pradesh in south - east part of India are married to ghosts . The only condition is that the couple should agree to marry.

The girls are appointed kuramboi (priestess ) in sabara tribe of aborigins. Tutalari i.e ghost fall in love with them . If the kuramboi likes her ghost lover , they are married.

It happens many times that the kuramboi refuses to marry the ghost due to his dreadful appearance . The ghost is then requested to give up the idea . If he agrees its alright but if he doesn't either the ghost should change its appearance or the kuramboi has to change her decision.

There are now arrangements to marry off kurambois under government auspices. But the customs of the aborigins is a great  hindrance in this matter. They believe  that there are some ghosts who have unfulfilled desires. As it is , the kurambois amongst Sabara tribe are married twice . Once with a ghost and the second marriage is performed with a human being.

Unsolved mystery of Bélmez Faces (a true story )

The Bélmez Faces or the Faces of Bélmez is an alleged paranormal phenomenon in a private house in Spain which started in 1971 when residents claimed to see images of faces appear in the concrete floor of the house. Such images have continuously formed and disappeared on the floor of the home since that time.

Located at the Pereira family home at Street Real 5, Belmaz de la Moraleda, Jaén, Spain, the Bélmez faces have been responsible for bringing large numbers of sightseers to Bélmez. The phenomenon is considered by some parapsychologists the best-documented and "without doubt the most important paranormal phenomenon [in the 20th] century".


Various faces have appeared and disappeared at irregular intervals since 1971 and have been frequently photographed by the local newspapers and curious visitors. Many Bélmez residents believe that the faces were not made by human hand. Some investigators to believe that it is a thoughtographic phenomenon unconsciously produced by the owner of the house, María Gómez Cámara. ("Thoughtography" is considered a form of psychokinesisamong parapsychologists.)


Skeptical researchers point out that unlike other psychic claims this case is falsifiable. Since the faces of Bélmez are fixed on whitewash of cement, scientists are able to analyze the molecular changes that took place in such mass of concrete. Skeptics have performed extensive tests on the faces and maintain they have demonstrated that fakery has been involved



The appearances in Bélmez began on August 23, 1971, when María Gómez Cámara claimed that a human face formed spontaneously on her cement kitchen floor. María's husband, Juan Pereira and their son, Miguel, destroyed the image with a pickaxe and new cement was laid down. However, the Pereira story goes, a new face formed on the floor. The Mayor of Bélmez was informed and forbade the destruction of the new face. Instead, the floor cement was cut out and taken for study.
María's home was advertised to the tourists as La Casa de las Caras (The House of the Faces). By Easter of 1972 hundreds of people were flocking to the house to see the faces. For the next 30 years the Pereira family claimed that faces continued to appear, both male and female and of different shapes, sizes and expressions.

The main researchers of the Bélmez case were Hans Bender and German Argumosa. Both collaborated in Bélmez and Freiburg in the early 1970s when the ostensible phenomenon began. However, neither Bender nor de Argumosa published an official report on them. Inexplicably, Bender wrote very little about the case in his journal Zeitschrift für Parapsychologie. Argumosa, a Spanish parapsychologist spent two years evaluating what he believed was a Gothic mystery, but published nothing on the subject either. However, Bender did mention the case in passing and referred to it in some of his lectures. His crucial statement referred to the sealing of areas of the floor where some faces were in progress with a transparent plastic material:
"In Bélmez, slight changes of the faces' configuration during the period when the phenomenon was under seal (attested by a notary) have contributed to ensure its paranormal origin"

María Gómez, the purported psychic that allegedly produced the appearances, died on February 2004 at the age of 85 years. After her death the popular psychic researcher Pedro Amorós tried to "discover" more thoughtographic appearances in María's house
What is the actual truth no one knows but one this is true there is some external force around us which is...... "WATCHING US"..................
