5. It’s deja vu all over again! In 1929, a reader wrote to the Detroit Free Press about “flashes” that were happening in his mind, which he thought were either a sign of being a genius or premonitions of future events. He was calling it “deja vu” as he didn’t know what else to call it. Amazingly, he would think of an event or person only to read about it in the paper soon after he thought about it.

4. Hear an amazing reincarnation story of four-year-old Ryan Hammons, who remembered his past life as a movie director—including the movies he directed, his friends, and even how he died.

3. Ever had a tattoo that you decided you wanted removed? How about using a shotgun to blow it off? Well, that’s exactly what one dude tried to do when he decided he didn’t want his tattoo anymore.

2. See the article that sparked all of the Mothman conspiracy theories. Reports came from people in Point Pleasant, Virginia about the elusive creature, and a reporter wondered if a warehouse would be the next place Mothman would strike.

1. One of the worst mine explosions was the Darr Mine disaster in 1907, which killed 239 people. A few days before the disaster, a teenage boy who worked in the mine saw a ghost and was too scared to go back. Did the ghost save his life? What did he see and why?
