These are the days and months when many people start reflecting on their year’s accomplishments and failures–the Ghost Diaries reflects on horror movies. We look back on the year with nostalgic fondness, running a slow motion highlight reel of brutal murders, screaming faces, demonic possession, and pools of blood spreading across new laminate floorboards. 2013 […]
Earlier this year, Iranian scientist Ali Razeghi registered something called “The Aryayek Time Traveling Machine” with Iran’s Center for Strategic Inventions. Ali claimed that the device uses computer algorithms to predict 5-8 years into the future. He says the machine could be used to anticipate military actions by other countries. Of course, he hasn’t launched […]
Recently, we stumbled upon a story out of western Switzerland about a gigantic, terrifying figure known as ‘Le Loyan’. For about a decade now, Le Loyan has been an urban legend among the children who play and live near the woods of Maules. He is alleged to wear a gas mask, a boiler suit, and […]
The hacktivist group Anonymous has a new warning out expressing concern that a false flag terrorist attack in Los Angeles may be imminent. They state that a series of unusual drills carried out recently, as well as suspiciously dropped insurance plans, suggest a 9/11 style attack may occur on the Citi Bank building in downtown […]
The Ghost Diaries has created a new quiz-game, and it’s really fun. It’s called ‘Who Said It, A Serial Killer or a President?!’ Below we’re going to list randomized quotes from both serial killers and presidents. It’s your job to pick the speaker of the quote. Answers at bottom – no Googling! 1) “The Industrial […]
During the Victorian era and the early 20th century, occultism swept across America and Europe. The movement centered on the belief that life continues after death, and that spirits can be contacted via mediums. During this time, many people came forward claiming they had psychokinetic powers and went to great lengths to prove it, either […]
The newest line of Hollywood propaganda is a strange combination of pro-drone military and corporate influence. Major media conglomerates and government agencies have an invested interest in selling the idea of domestic drones and AI controlled military police forces. This is big money for the still-pubescent drone surveillance industry as well as the military industrial […]
Guest Post by Ghost Girl In the mid 1990s much of the world became obsessed with a bloody glove. O.J. Simpson’s bloody glove: the cornerstone of his case. But we might have been tricked into worrying about the wrong bloody glove. For there was another glove incident across the world in Rwanda during that same […]
The godfather of zombie movies, George Romero, had some unflattering words to say about The Walking Dead series in a recent interview with The Big Issue. Romero said, “They asked me to do a couple of episodes of ‘The Walking Dead,’ but I didn’t want to be a part of it. Basically it’s just a […]
Featured image by Julian Aguilar Faylona Barring a mass extinction of the human race–which, of course, is completely plausible–our technological progress will likely continue to grow exponentially, making the chances of a technological Singularity quite good. This Singularity will fuel unimaginable change on the Earth–the development of androids, strong artificial intelligence, posthuman entities that combine […]
Guest post by Ghost Girl “The most terrible thing of all was the despair into which people fell when they realized that they had caught the plague; for they would immediately adopt an attitude of utter hopelessness.” -Thucydides So viruses freak me out. True story. Here are the best of the worst plague narratives currently […]
Feature pic by Broly1337 For anyone who’s dreamt of going to Disney World and never leaving, Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom (2003) is the book for you. Cory Doctorow’s increasingly relevant novel is a precious literary artifact, functioning as a potent science fiction missive, a satirical challenge to copyright laws, and as a […]
By Jake Anderson Dark matter and dark energy are already two of the most enigmatic concepts in all of science. They just grew even more puzzling. Cosmologists are saying they may have discovered a second type of dark matter that is not diffuse and can interact with itself. The effects of this may have been […]
Last year, the month of November marked the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination, as well as the 50th birthday of one of the greatest conspiracy theories of all time. On November 22nd, 1963, a photogenic, charismatic, beloved president had half of his head blown off in broad daylight in front of a roaring crowd […]
Post by Billy Russell One of the freshest directors working in horror movies these days is Ti West. His movies are unique in that he cherishes suspense almost as much as a pay-off. It’s refreshing to see a filmmaker take pride in fear-making and not just the amount of blood that can feasibly be made […]
The new website DiedinHouse.com is a pretty marvelous concept, though it’s hard to imagine most people using it for anything besides ghoulish, morbid delight. What adolescent hasn’t pondered the souls who once lived in his childhood home, wondering if someone died in the very room in which he now fantasizes about women on a daily […]
Towards the end of his life, sci-fi master Philip K. Dick suffered from mental health ailments. Dick himself had always believed in a plurality of realities (‘pluriform pseudo worlds’), and didn’t necessarily consider schizophrenic visions to be insane. To delve into these issues would be to take on the entire 20th century psychiatric empire, which […]
The Ghost Diaries recently received an email requesting we put eyeballs on a ‘ghost’ photo. The email seemed to be from a young ghost hunter, or perhaps even a cabal of young ghost hunters at the Floyd Central High School in Southern Indiana. We were referred to an article published in The Bagpiper Online, the […]
Last year, we did a post on the scariest halloween costumes ever…which you should check out! Since then, we have found even more creepy costumes to whet your whistle. We find it fascinating how much freakier costumes were back in the day. Were people really that much more deranged back then? Was it a reflection […]
The Ghost Diaries missed the season 4 premiere of The Walking Dead. Why? That’s a question for the ages, with an answer laced in expletives. But we watched it tonight and were pleasantly surprised. One of our chief season 3 complaints was lack of zombie action in some of the episodes. That was quickly rectified […]
