The Legend Of The Lizard Man

Deep in the swamps of Lee County, South Carolina, there's a creature whose name sends chills down the spine of anyone familiar with local legends. It’s known as the Lizard Man, and for decades, it’s haunted the wild, remote woods near Scape Ore Swamp.

The story dates back to 1988, when 17-year-old Christopher Davis was driving home late one night. As he passed through the dark, desolate stretch of road near the swamp, he saw something unimaginable: a tall, humanoid figure covered in green, scaly skin with glowing red eyes. It chased his car, clawing at the vehicle before vanishing into the woods.

Soon, other residents began to report strange encounters: footprints, strange sounds, and even attacks on property, with livestock disappearing overnight. The Legend of the Lizard Man was born—and it wasn’t just a local curiosity. People came from across the country hoping to catch a glimpse of the creature or perhaps snap a photo.

Whether it’s the stuff of folklore or something more sinister, the Lizard Man remains a fixture of Lee County’s eerie history, a mystery lurking in the shadows of Scape Ore Swamp. If you’re brave enough to venture there, some say you might just hear the rustle of scales in the dark… or see those glowing red eyes staring back.

Just remember to keep your eyes peeled—and your car windows rolled up or you could experience your own Strange Discovery.

The Nephilim

In the pages of the Bible, hidden among stories of miracles and prophecies, there exists a mysterious and puzzling reference: the Nephilim. Often described as giants, these beings have captivated the imagination of scholars, theologians, and storytellers for centuries. But who exactly were they? And why do they appear so briefly in the scriptures? The story begins in the Book of Genesis, in the sixth chapter. The text speaks of a time when the "sons of God" saw that the "daughters of men" were beautiful, and they took them as wives. The offspring of this union, we're told, were the Nephilim, described as "the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown." But there’s a problem: the Bible doesn’t clarify who these "sons of God" were, nor does it explain exactly what the Nephilim were. Some interpretations suggest the "sons of God" were fallen angels, sent to earth to corrupt humanity. These angels, according to this view, mated with...

Ghosts In The White House

The White House, the heart of the American presidency, has seen more than its fair share of history: wars, victories, scandals, and triumphs. But within its hallowed walls, some say the echoes of the past still linger, not in the form of portraits or relics, but in the ghostly apparitions of those long gone. One of the most famous spirits said to haunt the White House is none other than that of Abigail Adams, the wife of John Adams, the second president. During her time in the White House, Abigail would often be seen walking the halls, carrying a bowl of water to wash her clothes. Legend has it that her figure still appears in the East Room, where she once stood, her presence felt in the quiet moments of the night. Another restless spirit is President Andrew Jackson. Known for his fiery temper and larger-than-life personality, Jackson's ghost is said to still roam the halls, particularly in the early hours of the morning. Those who’ve encountered him describe hearing the sounds of ...

Bela Lugosi Was Obsessed With The Dramatic

Bela Lugosi, the legendary actor forever tied to the role of Dracula, was a man whose real-life persona often seemed stranger than the characters he portrayed on screen. Known for his deep, commanding voice, charismatic presence, and that signature Hungarian accent, Lugosi was a master of the macabre in film. But behind the camera, his life was every bit as peculiar, almost as if he couldn’t escape the dark allure of the roles that made him famous. For starters, Lugosi was obsessed with the dramatic. He wasn't just Dracula on screen—he adopted the persona of the brooding, mysterious vampire off-screen too. Often seen in his trademark cape, Lugosi was known for his theatrical mannerisms and for living with an air of constant mystery. There are stories of him refusing to acknowledge anything in his life as "ordinary"—his home was decorated in gothic style, and his daily life was laced with an eerie sense of theatricality. But his real oddities weren’t just in his appearance...
