Good idea in principle, but sticky threads die quickly. No one reads them after a few weeks and people just make new threads anyway.

Ley lines are nonsense, sorry. But the geomagnetic anomaly thing has actual research behind it. There's a geological paper from the 1980s about magnetic rocks in the Stonehenge region.
The Rendlesham incident is one of the best-documented UFO cases specifically because of the military documentation. Not because anything weird is still happening there - the incident was in 1980.

The Guardian article was actually quite good science. Acoustic amplification is a real and measurable phenomenon, which is literally what the researchers demonstrated.
I went to Stonehenge in 1998 and genuinely felt dizzy and disoriented. Not spiritually - I mean physically nauseous. We left after about twenty minutes.
Every time a newspaper publishes something paranormal-related, we get six new threads in "Sightings & Reports" and "Mystery Animals" going absolutely mental about journalistic integrity and...
The Guardian published a piece about new research into Stonehenge's acoustic properties. Basically, scientists have worked out that the stone circle acts as an amplifier, and they reckon it was...
The real scandal is they didn't mention Rendlesham Forest comparisons at all. Both cases, you get official dismissal, media mockery, but then years of credible witness testimony that doesn't go...
Your doors opening thing reminds me of those stories about Poltergeists - supposedly they're about telekinetic activity triggered by adolescents in the house.

I went down to Suffolk last weekend (visiting family near Ipswich) and took a drive out to Rendlesham Forest just to have a look around.
They contacted me! I gave them an interview but obviously they used about 30 seconds of a 45-minute chat. The bits where I talked about the livestock evidence got cut.
EVP recording at Pendle Hill back in 2019. Got a voice on tape saying 'get out' clear as day. No one was near the recorder, checked the audio levels, checked for electromagnetic interference, the...

The thing about Spring-heeled Jack that always intrigues me is that it's one of the few historical 'hauntings' that genuinely could have been a person.
Escapees from private collections is actually the most sensible explanation though, innit? Not folklore, not aliens, just people being irresponsible pet owners in the 70s.
The BBC piece was a complete hatchet job. I listened too and they cherry-picked everything. The zoologist they had on was from some London university who's probably never set foot in Cornwall.
I had something similar with doors opening in an old pub in Cornwall. Turned out to be a structural issue - the building was settling and moving the door frames just enough that latches wouldn't...

The problem with personal experiences is they're so subjective innit. Doors could've been open for a hundred reasons - air pressure changes, dodgy locks, someone breaking in and just messing with...
Reading this now based on your recommendation. You're right about the skepticism being a bit much - but honestly after wading through some of the absolutely bonkers claims that've been made about...

Has anyone tried the newer Panda 4000 that came out last month? Supposedly fixed the software issues but I haven't seen any proper reviews yet.

Right, so I was listening to the Today programme this morning (caught it on iPlayer during breakfast) and they did a whole segment on big cat sightings in Cornwall.
