Weird Stories Thread !
If you have a weird Story You might post it here !

My Sister and I happened to go to a Psychic.
I had to travel some place that was Dangerous for an assignment.
So I asked her if I was coming back ?
She said; Yes you will come back and work near Washington, DC. I said I do not like Washington, I will not work there. But the Psychic said Yes you will !
She was right on both counts as 11 years later I did work near Washington !
Then she told my sister's fortune. She said she would marry a man with one eye ! of course, being her brother, I had to laugh at her a little; your groom will have one eye ! Then something like 10 years later she did marry a guy with one eye. He had been in a car accident which messed up his eye; so he wore a Eye Patch over it like a Pirate would !
I didn't realize till years later that the Psychic had been right on all counts !

Another Writer sent me this;
There was a Cat that lived with Aliens on a Space Ship !
Wherever they went to a Planetoid or a Planet and the Cat wanted to go out; the Aliens could 'Dial" their door and give the Cat the environment she wanted
to go out in ! This was usually Summer with Green Grass and Trees, Blue Skies and White Clouds with a few Mice, Birds, Rabbits, and Squirrels to chase ! When the Cat wanted to go in it would go back to the Spaceship door and Bat a Button and the Aliens would let her back in !
But one day the Aliens were chased by some Earthlings; so they took off; but they forgot the Cat ! The Cat waited for them, but they didn't come back ! So the Cat went to look for a new master; because she didn't want to have to hunt for her Crunchies ! She found a home with a writer and his wife and waited outside his door till they discovered her and took her in. And they fed her Crunchies and sometimes Fish which she liked very much ! But where the writer lived it got cold and snowy in the winter. So when the cat wanted to go out; she would make the writer take her to every door going out of the house; because she expected the weather to be better outside of a different door ! The writer thought this was strange and remarked to his wife; "why does she do this ?" But the wife realized the Purpose of the cat, who didn't like the snow ! His wife told him; "she is looking for the Door into Summer !"
So the writer liked the idea and so he called his next science fiction book "The Door into Summer" ! Which is how you will find it if you look for it; Titled because of a Space Cat !

Eight walked out of the Forest to a road. She smelled Food on the other side of the road; so she started across. A truck slammed on it's breaks ! "Are you crazy ? Do you want to get killed ! the Trucker shouted at her. He took off. Eight walked into the all night grocery. She went to the frozen food; but there was only a picture of eggos and no packages ! She went up to the counter. Eggos she said ! I think we're out of them. we got a truck coming in Monday, we should have some then.
Eight laid her head on the Counter and began to Cry ! Don't do that, Henry the clerk said; Let me make you a Chili-Dog ! I don't want to eat no Dog, said Eight ! It's not really a Dog, we just call it that ! He fixed her a Hot Dog with Bun and Chili and Relish and Cheese on top. She started to eat it; and Henry told her Don't eat the paper, that's just to hold the bun ! He fixed her a large drink ! What's the Eight on your Top, he said ? Is that a band ? Eight is my name; said Eight ! How do you spell that, said Henry ? I don't spell, said Eight ? Can I have another Chili-Dog ? OK, said Henry and he fixed it. Do you have any Money ? I don't know what money is said Eight ! She finished the Chili-Dog and then said I am tired, I will go to sleep. Wait a minute said Henry, you can't sleep there in front of the counter ! Let me take you into the back and you can lie down on our cot !
He took her back there laid her down and covered her up ! Eight said I like you, You nice to me ! She licked his hand and rolled over and went to sleep. He went back out to the counter. A State Policeman came in. Have you seen a girl with an eight on her top ? She escaped from the institute, she may be dangerous, we are to retrieve her by any means ! Henry didn't want to get her hurt; so he said, No, I haven't seen a girl like that ! The state policeman gave him a photo of eight with Eight on her top and his card. If you see her, call my number, there may be a reward. He left.
Henry decided he would take the girl home to protect her as soon as she woke up. He got her a sweater top they sold for girls with a horse on it. when Juan, the guy for the 2nd shift came in; Henry went back and woke the girl and took her top off and put it in a bag, he put the horse t-shirt on her; then Henry took her out to his car and buckled her into the passenger seat. He took off for his house. She squealed out the window as they drove along. Faster she said ! I'm doing the speed limit ! They got home, he showed he where the bathroom was and the guest room with a bed. You can sleep there, he said.
All of a sudden, Emily ( his girlfriend ) was there And who is this Girl ? she said. It's just a girl i am taking in for a while ( she is homeless and penniless ) A likely story, said Emily ! I am going to slug you ! You have to take me to the store, she demanded ! Ok said Henry, he showed Eight how to work the TV and got her some Cartoons. He told Eight to stay here, I'll be right back ! Emily told him, If you are two-timing me, I'm going to Clobber You ! No, Henry told her It's just like I said she is homeless and penniless, I'm just taking her in for a while ! I hate you, said Emily , for lying to me ! He took her to the store; he said I have to get back soon, because I think the girl is a foreignor and doesn't know the states ! he drove Emily home; She slammed his car door and was mad at him. So he drove back home.
Back Home his mother was there ! And who is this Girl ? she said. Henry said she's just a girl I am letting stay here for a while as she is homeless. Her mother had cleaned the place up and gave eight a Bubble-bath and washed her hair. Eight said, my hair is wet ! She needs some clothes; I'll be right back with them ; his mother said ! She is nice lady, eight said, she gave me a bath ! said Eight in one of his robes. I see said Henry !
His mother returned in a short time with some clothes and what is her name ? Her name is Jane, Henry said ! My name is Eight , Eight said ! Are you going to start lying to your mother ? , the boss said ? She took eight upstairs and dressed her in undergarments and a dress. Then she came back downstairs with her. I don't want to hear of you getting this girl pregnant, unless you are married, his mother said ( in an aside ). I'm not getting her pregnant, he said I ;m just taking her in for a while ! Eight said Want to see my Bra and want to see my panties I got ? Henry told her a girl doesn't usually show her Bras and Panties to a guy ! Why not , said Eight ? It's just not done, Henry said. remember what I said, said his mother ! don't take advantage of this girl, she seems real nice ! I won't mother Henry said And you own me $20 for everything, his mother said ! I'll have to pay you Friday, when I get paid, Henry told her ! Remember what i said about the girl ! then his mother left ! ( to be continued )

I really enjoyed the Stranger Things series and found it interesting to read this "alternate" version of part of the show.

Thank You Scruffy ! Apparently I have the affliction that compels me to write ! Ha ! But I need a series like Harry Potter or Game of Thrones to make some money ! And unfortunately I am still working on my books.
Kane, the Shaolin waited at the station for the Auxiliary train on the other track to pull in. When it did the Ninja got off; but to all appearances he appeared to be the office engineer and map-maker he seemed to be. Kane bowed to him in the oriental way out of respect; I am Kane, I am to escort you to the office and the sleeper car , he said. The Ninja bowed back to show respect. It is not far; we can walk along the track, said Kane taking the Ninja's luggage. The Ninja, however kept his wide map case tube on a strap over his arm !
They walked along in silence, but as they passed by a railway car piled high with railroad ties, first one upright pole broke off and then another, so all of the ties tumbled out on top of them. The Shaolin's extraordinary reflexes took over instantly and he grabbed the map maker and threw him and himself out of the way of the ties ! They both rolled into a sitting defensive posture, as if in combat !
The Ninja spoke first; You have saved my life, he said ! His map tube had got thrown off of his arm and spilled open and the top had come off and a Samurai sword and it's hilt spilled out partly. Kane then said; That is a Samurai Sword ! Yes ; having saved his life, Kane had the advantage of the Ninja so he had to tell the partly truth ! Yes he said; it was my Great-Grandfather's Sword and my Grand-father's and Father's and now it has come down to me, so I keep it with me ! so then you are a Samurai ? Yes; said the Ninja; although he didn't tell him he was a Ninja ! He killed Samurai for a living ! He knew what a Samurai was going to do before he did it !
But as they fell; the Shaolin's sleeve had gone up and the Ninja spied the Dragon's symbol on his arm ! This is no ordinary Chinese the Ninja thought ! He tried to place the symbol. Then he remembered; You are A Shaolin Priest ! They say you cannot be killed and that you can walk through walls ! People have a tendency to exaggerate said Kane. Show me your Dragons said the Ninja ! Kane rolled up his sleeves and showed him the Dragons burn tattooed into his arms ! Kane thought I have never fought a Samuraii before, I wonder how hard it is ? At the same time the Ninja was thinking; I have never killed a Shaolin before, I wonder how hard it is ? ( to be continued )

James Bond or Pierce Brosnan pleaded Guilty in a Mammoth, Wyoming Court
for stepping off the established Trails in Yellowstone National Park ( something which is extremely frowned on by the environmentalists ! ). He wanted to get a better picture off the trail for himself. But he said he is an environmentalis he just went to get a better picture of a Thermal Spring and he said he wasn't hiking all around ! There are apparently stiff sentences for this Like two years probation, and a $5,000 Fine Prosecutors wanted. However, he was let off with a $500 Fine plus a $1,000 Donation to a Yellowstone Nonprofit. He was in the park for a personal visit and not for a film; but made the mistake of uploading the images to his instagram account !
Actually my Grandmother did this years ago; during the 1940's when she had a cut on her thumb and it got infected; so she dunked it in a shallow part of a thermal pool to try to get it cured and it did it ! But back then they didn't have as many park rangers !
This was in the breitbart .com news

The Springs are Mineral-rich, but some are quite hot and some people have suffered burns in the past if they are not careful !

Eight wanted to walk around; so Henry took her for walk in the woods near his house. They were walking down a trail; when a Tremendous wolf came out of the Forest to stare at them ! The female Wolf Sheera, leader of the Pack, was wondering whether to attack the Humans; but she felt the Aura or something weird about the female girl; so she hesitated ! Henry told Eight; we may have messed up ! we have to go back to the house immediately to get out of here ! But Eight liked the wolf; and told him she won't attack us ! Be careful Henry told her; she can bite your hand off !
Eight walked up to the wolf telling her; You are a strong and beautiful wolf; talking to her in her mind ! Sheera stared at her in amazement as the human girl talked to her in her mind ! Her Pack waited in the Woods around them; waiting for her growl to attack, but it never came ! The girl put out her hand and petted and rubbed the wolf's head and neck. But the wolf; being wild, didn't really like this; and so she turned around and led her pack off. when she was a little away; she rolled in the dust, as she didn't like the Human girl's scent on her ! Her consort, Dark, asked her why didn't we take down the Humans ? Sheera told him that girl wasn't entirely Human; she is stronger and faster than she looks !
Whew said Henry ! A whole pack of wolves could've killed us ! Eight said no; I talked to her and she knew we were friends ! You can talk to a wolf, said Henry ? Yes said Eight , I can talk to lot of animals in my mind, I don't know why !

You see; at a certain point I desired more Intelligence;
so I devised a way to get it !
And I succeeded to a certain point; as I developed more Intelligence; however
I also knew I was meddling in an area I shouldn't be.
And so; I pulled Back, because I could not discern the end result.....?
Being Foolish; I repeated the experiment; with the same result; however I pulled back again.....?
As in getting more intelligence; you don't want to fundamentally change Yourself; and this I did not want to do !
And so I will not tell you what I did; because it is extremely dangerous !

Perhaps I might write it in a book to be published after I pass on. However; it may be too Dangerous for that; as another individual might attempt it; and allow himself to be changed totally and I don't know what effect that would have upon history.
And so; You see, it is best for some knowledge to not survive the individual !
So that Society might advance !

Strange to have knowledge no one else has ! And this is the weird stories thread; so I relate it here !

At a certain point a few years ago; I had a Dog Haunting !
In that I was haunted by a Dog in my House !
I get the Impression that it was a German Shepherd for some reason; so not a small dog !
I would be watching TV and would see a dark shape scuttling fast around on the floor; out of the corner of my eye at different times !
At first I put this down as a quirk of my eye; as if I didn't see it !
It didn't like the light, so it would stay out of any lights. ( this was usually night and I don't leave many lights on ! ).
I didn't like this and so I started to leave more lights on at night and so it eventually went away !
Here's the Kicker; as they say. One night the "dog" had retreated to the front of the house; where I didn't have any lights on ! When I walked up to the front bathroom; the dog was hiding in the front bedroom and Growled at me; as if to say "Don't turn on the Light", so I didn't !
Finally it went away and didn't haunt me any more.
It wasn't like a ghost you barely see the outline of like a white outline. It was a dark kinda shadowy cloud on the floor like an animal you couldn't see the shape of clearly !
My family had a German shepherd when I was a kid and then later my one grandfather had one, too So maybe it was one of those. I don't know why it came back to haunt me for a while ?
Finally it went away !
This is a True story; showing that if you live long enough you run into everything !
