Cryptid witnesses' Catch 22

Plasma life forms - aliens from a parallel Earth
According to plasma metaphysics (Jay Alfred, Our Invisible Bodies, 2006), the physical-dense Earth is gravitationally coupled to a counterpart dark matter Earth composed of low density plasma. This "sister" Earth was co-accreted with the physical-dense Earth about 4.6 billion years ago from dark matter components in the embryonic Solar System...

The Mars Volta enters the paranormal realm
Nearly everyone over the age of 12 will testify that Ouija boards are fake and a waste of time. But progressive rock band The Mars Volta (TMV) obviously doesn't feel that way. Disbelieve what you will, but TMV's fourth full-length effort, "The Bedlam in Goliath," is a bowl full of secrets poured forth from the occult. While touring with the Red Hot Chili Peppers in 2006, the band purchased a now-famous Ouija board nicknamed "the Soothsayer." During the tour and the initial stages of recording for "Bedlam," the board began to mystify the band with the demands, stories and names it supposedly gave them...

Ayahuasca: a strange brew
Can a psychotropic jungle potion cure the existential angst of the McMansion set? In an affluent corner of encinitas, just north of San Diego, a young medicine man named Lobo Siete Truenos sits cross-legged on the polished wood floors of a backyard temple.

A haunted road
There's a road in the Marcola area (Eugene-Springfield area, Oregon) that's known to be haunted. At one end of this road is a cemetery. At the other end is a closed off area; the rumor is that University archeologist students had had enough of the negative haunting type energy and so left it as is. It's unclear if the property belongs to the University, the city, county, or what. Story goes, the land remains as is, with no one building on it...
The dissociative mind of the paranormal
Goatsucker in my "backyard"
According to a piece published on the site LAist, the Chupacabras made a few appearances at the height of its fame (mid-1990s) right here in Los Angeles. I never heard about the sightings at the time. Back in 1995, we published one of the first reports on the phenomenon in our magazine The Excluded Middle. Scott Corrales reported from Puerto Rico with accounts describing an impish-looking thing with short hair all over its body and a row of porcupine-like spines running down its back. As if to complete the cosmic joke, the creature was topped with a alien grey-like head and googly black eyes...
