Today is: 
Paranormal Day 
Seeing is believing, or at least so the old adage goes. But is it? Because despite how tempting it would be to believe that if you canât see, hear or touch something, it doesnât exist, there have been thousands upon thousands of people who seem certain that they have in fact witnessed or even come into direct contact with things science just canât explain and that there is sometimes absolutely no evidence for.
For some tinfoil hat wearing folk, every day is Paranormal Day , but for the rest of us it is an unofficial holiday on 3 May 3. It celebrates and encourages discussion of paranormal activity and investigation.
Each year on Paranormal Day people who believe in paranormal activities are encouraged to get together and share their experiences with each other.
Paranormal is a term used to describe occurrences that canât be explained by ordinary scientific measures. They are outside the norm. Many words leap to mind when speaking of the paranormal. Ghosts, hauntings, spirit, or poltergeist name a few. However, an extraterrestrial and clairvoyance also fall into the category, too.
Have you ever felt a sense of Deja vu? Some believe the feeling is related to the paranormal. Are strange orbs in the night an apparition or simply a moth catching the light?
Nearly every city and town has a house or location that holds a mystical presence. Whether the history associated with the location or personal experiences, certain places radiate the paranormal. Others need a time of day or year for their mystery to unfold. Even still, it might depend on who spins the tale. A good storyteller can make just about anyoneâs spine tingle.
Fittingly enough, the origins of Paranormal Day are a mystery. The most likely reason that this day became Paranormal Day is because Charles Hoy Fort, an influential author and researcher of the paranormal, died on that day in 1932.
Fort is perhaps the best-known collector of paranormal anecdotes, and he is considered by many as the father of modern paranormalism, or the study of the paranormal. Fort compiled at least 40,000 notes on unexplained paranormal experiences.
Reported events that he collected include teleportation (a term Fort is actually credited with coining), poltergeist events, falls of frogs, fishes, and inorganic materials of an amazing range, crop circles, unaccountable noises and explosions, spontaneous combustions, levitation, unidentified flying objects, and mysterious appearances and disappearances, to name but a few.
He is also most likely the first person to explain strange human appearances and disappearances by the hypothesis of alien abduction, an idea that has definitely caught on, with hundreds of such reports being filed every year. Despite the extremely wide variety of these paranormal events, they all have something very important in common: they lack the reproducibility of empirical evidence, and they are not amenable to scientific investigation.
UFOs. Ghosts. Chupacabras. Do they exist? And if not, why have there been so many sightings and close experiences? Paranormal Day is all about trying to answer these questions.
What are some of the paranormal stories that you grew up hearing about? Are there haunted spots in your town? Have you ever had any sort of paranormal experience? Share already!
Go out there and have a as (para)normal as possible Monday friends!

Today is: Star Wars Day
May the fourth be with you!
May 4th has become commonly known as Star Wars Day. And who could be surprised? The words, âMay the 4thâ just cry out for the rest of the famous Star Wars catchphrase to be uttered.
Star Wars Day is an informal commemorative day observed annually on May 4 to celebrate George Lucasâs Star Wars media franchise. Observance of the day spread quickly through media and grassroots celebrations since the franchise began in 1977.
The date originated from the pun âMay the Fourth be with youâ, a variant of the popular Star Wars catchphrase, âMay the Force be with you!â Even though the holiday was not created or declared by LucasFilm, many Star Wars fans across the world have chosen to celebrate the holiday. It has since been embraced by Lucasfilm and parent company Disney as an annual celebration of Star Wars.
The first recorded reference of the phrase being used was on May 4, 1979, the day Margaret Thatcher took the job as Prime Minister of the UK. Her political party, the Conservatives, placed a congratulatory advertisement in The London Evening News saying âMay the Fourth Be with You, Maggie. Congratulations.â
In 2011, the first organized celebration of Star Wars Day took place at the Toronto Underground Cinema. Festivities included an Original Trilogy Trivia Game Show; a costume contest with celebrity judges; and the webâs best tribute films, mash-ups, parodies, and remixes show on the big screen.
Having purchased Lucasfilm in late 2012, Disney has been officially observing the holiday with several Star Wars events and festivities at its theme parks and across its broadcast channels since 2013.
New material is regularly released on Star Wars Day, and this year is not exception: A new animated series, Star Wars: The Bad Batch will premiere on Disney+ later today.
Disney+ will also release a Simpsons short titled âMaggie Simpson in The Force Awakens From Its Nap,â which will send âcharacters from the Star Wars galaxy to the town of Springfieldâ which sounds like a laff riot.
The official Star Wars site (linked below) is full of other events, ideas and activities celebrating Star Wars Day this year.
May the Force, Grogu, and the fourth all be with you this Tuesday, Jedi Knights!
