The Mapinguari is said to roam the Amazon—over 7 feet tall, reeking of death, and covered in red fur.
Some believe it’s a surviving giant sloth with a second mouth on its stomach.
Its cries echo through the trees… just before it appears.

The Antikythera Mechanism was found in a Roman-era shipwreck over 100 years ago. It’s an ancient Greek device with gears so precise, some call it the world’s first computer.
It tracked the stars, predicted eclipses… and its true purpose is still debated. #AncientMysteries #HistoryIsWeird

In 2013, a man in China woke up at his own funeral after being declared dead.
He told family he’d just been “resting.” 😳

In 1922, six people were murdered at Hinterkaifeck Farm.
Days before, they heard attic footsteps.
Their keys vanished. A newspaper appeared that no one bought.
After the murders…
The killer stayed. Ate their food. Fed their animals. Slept in their beds.
They were never found.

In 1930, an entire Inuit village vanished from the shores of Lake Anjikuni in Canada.

Fires were still burning. Meals half-eaten. Dogs found starved and frozen.

No footprints. No signs of struggle. Just silence.

The RCMP never solved it.

A friend once told me: if you hear a knock at 3:33 AM, don’t answer. Not the door. Not the window. Just breathe. And wait. Because sometimes it’s not about who’s knocking—it’s about what might get in if you open anything.
