Right, so now that we've got official US Navy declassified UFO footage (Gimbal, Go Fast, FLIR1 from 2015), I'm curious what the actual analysis consensus is.
I think the Loch Ness Monster is probably real Fair enough, there's probably *something* in Loch Ness. Deep water, stable ecosystem, plenty of big fish.

The lighthouse explanation is embarrassing, isn't it? A bunch of trained military personnel wouldn't get spooked by a lighthouse they literally had on their charts.
Honestly? Neither will catch you a ghost, but both will help you document *something*. Start with cheaper thermal imager (FLIR ONE or similar, around £150 used) before spending big money.
The land is private now, so you can't just rock up and camp overnight like you used to. You'd need permission from the owner.

Has anyone considered it might just be a very well-fed feral cat? There are genuinely massive ferals in rural areas. That said, the pattern recognition aspect is interesting.

cold spots (thermal signature) are more reliable indicators This assumes ghosts are cold, which isn't actually proven. Some paranormal reports describe *hot* spots.

Whatever it was, it took its time, like it was investigating us. This detail is crucial. Predatory animals typically avoid humans.

Get the night vision. Thermal is cool but you're spending £300 to measure air temperature variations that could be drafts, air conditioning, or normal atmospheric pockets.
The whole 'phantom coach' thing especially seems a bit much. Mate, the phantom coach is basically the Essex version of the headless horseman.

I've just finished reading through Price's original Borley Rectory reports, and I'm genuinely torn on whether he's a serious paranormal researcher or a Victorian charlatan with a good PR team.
I went in 2019 with a proper ghost hunting group (East Anglia Paranormal, decent crew). Honestly? You're walking around overgrown fields where a house used to be.

I've been reading up on the Rendlesham Forest incident (December 1980) again, and I'm genuinely puzzled why this isn't talked about more.
I genuinely think my nan's ghost visits me sometimes. Not in a 'spooky manifesto' way, just - small coincidences, familiar smells at weird times, once I found her old garden key in my flat weeks...

This is a no-judgment zone, so I'm gonna ask: what's the one paranormal thing you genuinely believe in, but you'd get absolutely roasted for mentioning at work or down the pub?

Right, so I'm planning a pilgrimage to what's left of Borley Rectory in Essex next month, and I'm trying to figure out if it's actually worth the petrol money.

November on Bodmin is genuinely creepy. The dark nights do something to the atmosphere there. I've camped multiple times and there's always this sense of being watched.

The seasonal pattern could be explained by simple factors: fewer tourists in winter, roads are quieter, darkness makes existing sounds more notable.

Three lights, triangle formation, stationary. The technical explanation is either multiple sources or one object with three-point illumination.

Watched his lecture on this at the British Anomaly Research conference last year. He's genuinely thoughtful.
