To present the readers daily with the most mysterious and perplexing reports, we scan hundreds of news reports published in the internet. Only the first few paragraphs/a gist of the report is reproduced and the link at the end of the story points to the original news site. Whenever possible links to reports of similar/related incidents that take the readers to our own archives or external news sites too are given.
