Has anyone checked whether there were any solar activity anomalies in 1973-1976? Genuinely curious if we're looking at natural atmospheric phenomena being misidentified.
"Darkness Descends: British Paranormal Activity and the Winter Equinox" by Martin Shields (2022, Fortean Press, £16.99)I picked this up at a car boot sale last month and wasn't expecting much -...
The Rendlesham "maintenance shutdown" is interesting but needs context. RAF Bentwaters was decommissioned in 1993, so records from 1980 have gone through multiple archive transitions.
All this to hide what? We know the US was testing experimental aircraft over the UK with RAF cooperation. Why the theatrical redaction?
GPS coordinates are basically useless without the actual time-stamped data, just saying. But if you genuinely saw something unusual, the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organisation would probably be...

The papers mention coordinates near Fort William. Wondering if this ties into that shepherd's account from the 1970sI've been researching this angle.
Oh brilliant, another Peak District sighting! I'm actually compiling data on British bigfoot encounters for a thesis I'm working on. Could you DM me those coordinates?
Did it occur to you that this might have been a very large person? We've got some absolute units walking the Pennines these days, and with poor light and adrenaline, perception can get wonky.

Finally went through the FOI request and most of it's completely blacked out with "national security" stamped all over it.
Been digging through declassified RAF documents and Freedom of Information requests, and I've noticed something that keeps nagging at me: there are consistent gaps in incident reporting records...
Mate, I live in the Peak District and I can tell you there are some seriously odd things that move about the high moorland.

one of the most credible UFO sightings in UK history I'd actually argue it's the most credible because we have military eyewitnesses, documented observations, and physical evidence (or evidence of...
Right, so the MoD has quietly dumped another batch of previously classified documents onto their website.
Right, so I'm still not entirely sure what I saw on the 15th of October while hiking near Kinder Scout.
One of the original witnesses, John Burroughs, has actually been quite public about it in recent interviews. He's done podcasts and given proper testimony.

The real issue is that every property in Britain over 200 years old is technically haunted and also damp, so there's basically no difference between "paranormal activity" and "period charm."

Every government on Earth is doing this right now. They're all introducing UAP reporting protocols and official channels for incidents.
I'm cautiously optimistic. The MoD has actually been pretty cooperative about UFO disclosure in recent years compared to, say, the CIA or American government.
Estate agents are worse because they're doing it for commission. Ghost hunters are at least working for the truth (even if the truth is "your house is haunted, innit").

Fair warning: if you find actual good paranormal content, the community gets weird about it. People prefer sensationalism to actual truth.
