TALL, BLACK, UPRIGHT CRYPTID CANINE Seen Twice At New Haven County, Connecticut Residence

A Connecticut youth recalls seeing a tall, black, upright cryptid canine with a wolf's head standing in the woods near his house. The bright yellow eyes were visible from the woods.The following account was forwarded to me:"This happened in Connecticut, about 30 minutes north of New Haven (New Haven County) in the year 2008. I actually saw this thing twice. The first time I saw it it was at night. For context when I was little I used to always stare out the window at night that faced a wooded grove that was about 100 yards or so away from the house and fall asleep staring out the window due to how peaceful the night was in the woods.So one night when I was about 9 years old I was staring out the window when suddenly I noticed two yellow lights in the woods. At first, I was confused thinking that a car was somehow in a tree. But as I stared more the yellow lights disappeared and then reappeared in the same spot almost like blinking eyes. As my groggy brain took a closer look at the lights I started noticing other odd things like how the tree these lights were showing up in was a little thicker than I remembered how there was a giant wolf head in the tree and that the yellow lights aligned with the head to be its eyes. This is when I was getting nervous and I bumped my head on the window accidentally as I was backing away.Well, as soon as my head hit the window. The wolf's head turned suddenly towards my window and the rest of the creature's body started emerging from behind the tree. The body was hard to see at first because it was jet black and perfectly blended into the shadows. But now it was stepping out into the moonlight and I was freaking out because this wolf was on two legs. And the top of this wolf's head was a good 10 feet off the ground. The wolf stayed in the treeline but was still very much visible from my window and I could tell that it knew exactly where I was even though there were no lights on outside for it to see me with. By this point, I had seen more than enough so I quickly slammed the curtains shut and hid under my covers that whole night waiting to hear it clawing at the window to get me (fortunately this didn't happen) and I stayed buried under the covers until my alarm clock went off the next morning. I never told anyone about it because although I saw it myself I still couldn't believe that it had happened.The second encounter happened 12 years later during a 4th of July celebration. Me and my dad were setting off fireworks in the backyard to celebrate and when we were done with the fireworks show as my dad and I were packing up for the night I saw the same pitch-black wolf head peeking out from behind the shed with the same glowing yellow eyes. The head was absolutely massive. It was every bit the size of the 3-foot wide window on that side of the house. When it saw me staring at it quickly ducked its head back behind the shed. I told my dad that there was a big dog back there and he chalked it up to coyotes. Well if it was a coyote then how did it manage to stand on two feet and how did its face take up the entirety of a 3 foot window? I don't know for sure what I saw but it matches descriptions that have been given for dogmen by other supposed witnesses so until I see otherwise I'm gonna say that what I saw was a dogman. It was terrifying to see both times and I never again want to see it or anything like it."

TIME LOOP REALITY SHIFT Experienced While Driving Home on Christmas Night

A Northern California driver is driving home on Christmas night when she experiences a distortion of reality, a weird time loop without any loss of time.I received the following account:“I've had a weird time loop distortion of reality happen to me while driving. It was Christmas night 2016 and I was headed back home around 9 PM. To get home, I have to take this back road through the countryside to get up into the foothills of the Sierras where I live. I had a strange feeling come over me, but I shrugged it off as just me being scared since I have had many UFO encounters in the past.The road was pretty desolate. I remember on the wide blind turn I passed an oncoming car, then continued on for about a mile and a half up towards the traffic light at the college. As soon as I climbed the slight hill up the straight away where the traffic light was in view, I instantly noticed that the light wasn’t there like normal. Then, in an instant, I ended up back on the road right before the wide blind turn a mile back from where I had just already driven. This time no car passed by me as I went through the turn and the clock minutes never changed just kept ticking forward. As far as I know, I experienced no missing time throughout the whole event. When I ended up back on the road where I had just driven all over again I felt as if I was just thrown into the car. I felt strange and my body felt different, as if I had had an out-of-body experience, and my legs shook uncontrollably. I could barely operate the peddles. I was very scared because I'd never had anything like that happen to me before, especially on a desolate road at night.The only thing I can think is that I ended up in some temporary time loop or I was abducted with no missing time and they put me back on the road a mile and a half earlier, then me driving the same stretch of road twice. But I can't figure out why the traffic light wasn’t there when it should have been nor why it was the trigger to put me backward on the road. The second time the light was there as normal when I drove back up the hill, but so far I have no clue why or how that happened. This occurred on Christmas night 2016 in northern California."

ANGEL IN THE WOODS

ANGEL IN THE WOODS

The witness told the story about walking through a snowstorm to fetch the doctor in town. He is soon accompanied by a man and his dog. The man later vanished with the dog. I received the following account:"This took place in 1909 when my Great Grandfather Harley was 7. He lived deep in the Maine woods with his parents and 2 siblings. Harley’s father was away for a couple of weeks due to his job and it was the beginning of winter. He helped his Mother care for the family home and his younger siblings.One day, he was helping his Mom hang some laundry out in the cold when she fell ill and fainted upon entering the house. Harley did his best to care for her but after a couple days, it seemed his family had all become very sick. He was fine. He recalled his mother telling him that he had to take a journey into town to fetch a doctor. The walk was 10 miles or so and he was only 7. He had to be strong as he was the man of the house with his Father gone. He bundled himself up and headed out early in the morning.It was cold and began to snow and Harley started to doubt he could make it. He said the snow started blinding him and his feet were so frozen that it was hard to keep going. Suddenly a friendly dog greeted him and behind him a man. Harley was relieved. The man was very handsome and wore a strange coat that didn’t look warm enough, it looked like leather and had fur around the collar. The stranger introduced himself as Finn and asked him where he was heading. He said he was going the same way and they walked side by side through the storm along with Finn's dog.Harley said they talked and talked although he didn’t remember what about but he did recall feeling warm and safe and full of energy. The journey flew by and as they approached the small town Harley looked around to see that the dog was gone when he looked back at Finn, he had disappeared as well! They were quite a ways out of the woods and there was nowhere he could have gone to. Harley was confused but soon found someone to speak with.Unfortunately, they couldn’t go back out for a while due to a huge snowstorm. Sadly, my great-grandfather's Mother and siblings passed away. Now the story didn’t end there. This twist has always boggled my mind and I just wish I had the answers. Harley married my great-grandmother Sara and they named their firstborn son Finn after Harley’s 'angel in the woods.' Finn was a handsome man who became a pilot against his mother's wishes. In 1941 he crashed his plane flying solo and my Grandmother couldn’t speak his name again until she was old and on her deathbed. I saw an old photo of Finn in his leather bomber jacket with fur around the collar. I always wondered if he had been the angel that saved my Grandfather's life."

(VIDEO/PHOTOS) Possible 'OWLMAN' WINGED HUMANOID ATTACK in Smithfield, Pennsylvania

(VIDEO/PHOTOS) Possible 'OWLMAN' WINGED HUMANOID ATTACK in Smithfield, Pennsylvania

I recently received a telephone call from an experiencer from Smithfield, Pennsylvania, located in Fayette County. 'TM' described her harrowing encounter with a winged humanoid on the night of October 30, 2023, at around 8 PM. It was dark.TM was driving home along Derry Hill Rd., and as she approached her driveway she recalls saying to herself that 'she never heard or saw an owl' on her property previously, even though she hadn't seen or heard an owl. She has no idea why the notion of an owl's presence dawned on her.She drove down her driveway and parked the vehicle (SUV) in front of the garage. Has she reached for something on the passenger seat she instantly felt the back of the vehicle dip down as if something heavy was hanging onto it. Then she felt something on the roof as the vehicle bounced up and down. She could hear 'footsteps' walking on the roof. She hadn't seen anything to this point.Has she sat in the vehicle, frantic and scared by the unknown being on the roof, she sensed that the intruder was attempting to communicate with her. In her mind's eyes, she was seeing a large winged creature, almost as if she had bilocated outside the vehicle. Then, as she looked at the top of her windshield, a huge feathered wing came into view. Her vision became more focused as she telepathically observed an immensely tall-winged humanoid with a broad wingspan. The facial details were never shown to her.She had no idea what this creature was, and she remained in the vehicle terrified that she was in mortal danger. The ordeal lasted, by her best estimation, about 15-20 minutes.Eventually, TM felt the heaviness from the creature lift of the vehicle. She continued to stay in the vehicle until she was positive that it had left.Since that night, she refuses to leave her home at night. She has also experienced a few unexplained incidents since the encounter, including a possible abduction with lost time. She believes that the winged humanoid was of alien origin and that it, and all alien entities, are demonic. TM was extremely emotional as she recalled the encounter, to the point where she was crying over the telephone.As I talked to TM I soon became aware that she may be a beacon and/or that supernatural energy is drawn to her. We discussed previous unexplained incidents that she has had throughout her life, including an incident where she observed 3 juvenile Bigfoot near Uniontown, PA when she was younger.TM provided a video detailing the incident, as well as photographs of the damage to her vehicle created by the winged humanoid. LonNOTE: This is not the first winged humanoid sighting and encounter that I have received from a witness in western Pennsylvania. There was a series of Owlman sightings in Armstrong County which I documented. There was also an update posted after the investigation.The presence of owl-related entities is a constant phenomenon experienced by many witnesses. I have personally experienced similar incidents associated with owls, particularly related to personal trauma and alien abduction.There has been significant unexplained activity associated with Smithfield, PA over the past year or so, including TWO VEHICLES STALL After Cylindrical UFO Passes Overhead on Pennsylvania Highway and 3 GLOWING SPHERES Nearly Strike Moving Vehicle Near Smithfield, Pennsylvania.

Robert Eggers Wants to Show You a Vampire Never Seen On Screen Before in Nosferatu

News Nosferatu Robert Eggers Wants to Show You a Vampire Never Seen On Screen Before in Nosferatu The goal was to create a vampire completely unlike familiar silver screen figures of old By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on December 2, 2024 Screenshot: Focus Features Comment 0 Share New Share Screenshot: Focus Features Robert Eggers, the director behind The Northman and The Lighthouse, has finally made the Nosferatu film he’s dreamed of since he was a kid. We’ve seen a little of the film so far via trailers, but except for some silhouettes and clawed hands, we haven’t seen much of Nosferatu, played by Bill Skarsgård. In a recent interview with Deadline, however, Eggers shares what inspired him to create the look of Orlock (a.k.a. Nosferatu). “Vampirism and Dracula is the thing that I’ve been thinking about and looking at for a long time,” he said. “I had read Montague Summers [the clergyman scholar who wrote about the occult] as a teenager, and many other authors of vampire lore, but I think, until I set out to make Nosferatu, I was still too contaminated by the cinematic tropes. And so, you’re infusing things you’re reading with cinematic tropes that aren’t there. In doing the research to write this script, I needed to be disciplined to forget what I knew. And then, you start looking at the really early vampire accounts, and you’re like, ‘They’re not even drinking blood, they’re just strangling people, or suffocating people, or f*cking them to death.’ And that was really interesting.” Eggers added that he started by thinking what a dead Transylvanian nobleman would look like, and that he wanted to give a nod to Max Schreck’s makeup design in the classic Nosferatu film. Skarsgård, according to Eggers, was taken aback when he first saw what his costume would be. “Bill sees the sculpt of the bust and he freaks out, and he’s like, ‘That doesn’t look anything like me, this guy didn’t look like me when he was even alive. What the f*ck?’ He wasn’t mean, but he was alarmed,” Eggers said. “And I was like, ‘Well, that’s the point, that you’re totally transforming into somebody else.’ And then, he’s putting the makeup on and he’s like, ‘Ugh, I look like a goblin. This is terrible.’ And then, once they put the hair on, even though the makeup wasn’t totally finished, I saw the first moment when he was like, ‘Okay, this is cool. This is a person.’ I started to see him in the mirror, playing around, trying to do something.” We’ll get to see Skarsgård’s dark performance, which also apparently included some intense vocal training, when Nosferatu premieres in theaters on December 25, 2024.[end-mark] The post Robert Eggers Wants to Show You a Vampire Never Seen On Screen Before in <i>Nosferatu</i> appeared first on Reactor.

Transgender Activists Look in the Mirror and See a Movement That Helped Defeat Kamala Harris

Transgender Activists Look in the Mirror and See a Movement That Helped Defeat Kamala Harris

WASHINGTON—There’s been a change in Washington since Donald Trump won the election. Democrats have begun to wonder about some of their more extreme messages. The New York Times reported Tuesday on regrets among transgender activists who now question the movement’s confrontational approach—as they realize their overboard rhetoric helped sink Kamala Harris’ bid to win the White House. Transgender activists, for example, called Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., a “Nazi cooperator” after he told the New York Times, “Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face. I have two little girls, I don’t want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I’m supposed to be afraid to say that.” Activists burned the books of J.K. Rowling after the Harry Potter creator declared the obvious—that letting biological males play on female teams is “deeply misogynistic and regressive.” Other critics are accused of being guilty of “genocide.” Here are some overboard tactics that activists, who are seeing the light now, see as undermining the cause, according to the Times: “attempts to police language, such as excising the words ‘male’ and ‘female’ from discussions of pregnancy and abortion; decrying the misidentification of a transgender person as violence; insisting that everyone declare whether they prefer to be referred to as he, she, or other pronouns.” At a 2022 event, Harris announced that her pronouns were “she and her.” In 2024, Team Trump responded: “Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you.” It’s ironic how activists who start out as champions of tolerance often turn into the most intolerant people in the arena. But I don’t think the big issue is language; I think it’s the numbers and the eruption of young people who are diagnosed with gender dysphoria. As Reuters reported, diagnoses for gender dysphoria for children aged 6 to 17 nearly tripled from 2017 to 2021. De-transitioned activists like Chloe Cole give a mournful testimony to the damage done to their bodies. “When I was 12 years old, doctors led me to believe that I was transgender,” Cole noted in remarks she posted on X. “I was told that puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries were my only options. They were wrong. Now I suffer from irreversible changes to my body and mind that I will live with for the rest of my life.” Cole then endorsed Trump after arguing that Harris pushed children into unnecessary transgender procedures. I have a lot of empathy for transgender individuals. I used to believe that no one would choose to be transgender. But in the last couple of years, I’ve seen a world in which common sense took a holiday and health care professionals at times nudged confused children into treatments that were not right for them. It was a political hysteria—and somehow Biden, Harris, and other top Democrats didn’t see the damage their agenda caused. But Trump did.

Joe Biden’s 11-Year Pardon for Hunter Raises Important Questions About Ukraine, China Corruption

Joe Biden’s 11-Year Pardon for Hunter Raises Important Questions About Ukraine, China Corruption

President Joe Biden just tacitly acknowledged what conservatives have long suspected—that Hunter Biden may be guilty of far more than just lying on a gun-registration form and cheating on his taxes. On Sunday, Biden issued a “full and unconditional pardon” to his son for “those offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from Jan. 1, 2014, through Dec. 1, 2024, including but not limited to all offenses charged or prosecuted” by the prosecutors in Delaware and California. This came just days before Hunter was to face sentencing for multiple felony convictions on gun and tax charges. The timeline raises important questions because it extends far beyond the scope of both the gun and tax prosecutions. The gun charges trace back to Hunter Biden’s claim in May 2018, when filling out a gun-registration form, that he was not addicted to drugs. The tax charges trace back to the younger Biden’s failure to pay taxes and various acts to avoid tax assessments beginning in 2016 and lasting through 2019. Why begin the pardon two years predating anything for which the son had been charged? The answer is obvious: Joe Biden either suspects that his son will face charges for something between 2014 and 2016 or he knows that some of his son’s activities during that period were not exactly aboveboard. So, what was Hunter Biden doing in 2014? Joining the board of the Ukrainian gas firm Burisma. Burisma As Peter Schweizer, president of the Government Accountability Institute, first exposed in his 2018 book “Secret Empires,” Hunter Biden joined the board of Burisma despite the fact that his experience in the energy industry was considerably lacking. (Read: nonexistent.) According to Reuters, sources with knowledge of Hunter Biden’s work on the board of Burisma, which began in June 2014 and lasted until April 2019, said the younger Biden gave the company advice on legal issues, corporate finance, and strategy. They said he never visited Ukraine for company business during that time, and his presence on the board did not protect the firm from its most serious challenge: criminal investigations into Burisma’s owner, Mykola Zlochevsky. Zlochevsky, a former Ukrainian minister of ecology and natural resources, faced allegations of tax violations, money laundering, and licenses given to Burisma while he served as a governmental minister. Zlochevsky remains a wanted man in Ukraine after he allegedly attempted to bribe Ukrainian authorities to drop the investigations. It seems Hunter Biden’s primary qualification for his job was none other than his last name—a last name that carried tremendous clout when then-President Barack Obama had appointed his vice president as point man on Ukraine. Last year, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, released an unclassified FBI form quoting Zlochevsky as suggesting that Hunter Biden cost $5 million and Joe Biden cost another $5 million. Joe Biden further muddied the waters in 2017 by claiming that he threatened then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016 that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees if the country didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. Shokin had been investigating Burisma for corruption at the time. It seems Biden’s bluster about getting Shokin fired in six hours was baseless. Sources told investigative journalist John Solomon that the U.S. applied pressure to fire Shokin over several months in late 2015 and early 2016. Ukrainian and U.S. officials had criticized Shokin for failing to bring enough corruption prosecutions. President Donald Trump took Biden’s bluster seriously, and asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a phone call for more information about the Shokin ouster. The then-Democrat-majority House impeached Trump over this phone call in 2019. Many commenters have dismissed as a conspiracy theory any suggestion that Hunter Biden played a role in Shokin’s ouster, and there seems to be no direct evidence he did so. Yet Joe Biden’s 2017 stem-winder about firing Shokin reveals that this incident was personally important to the former vice president, and the pardon raises further questions about it. China The Jan. 1, 2014, date also roughly coincides with the beginning of Hunter Biden’s business dealings in China. The younger Biden and his business partner, Chris Heinz (the stepson of then-Secretary of State John Kerry), had launched a firm called Rosemont Capital in 2009. The firm aimed “to strike profitable deals overseas with foreign governments and officials with whom the U.S. government was negotiating,” according to Schweizer’s book. When then-Vice President Biden went to China in December 2013 amid Beijing’s aggression in the South China Sea, Hunter traveled with him. Hunter negotiated a major deal between Rosemont Seneca Partners (an arm of Rosemont Capital) and the Chinese government-owned Bank of China. As Joe Biden discussed China’s trade with the U.S., his son was negotiating a business deal. Ten days after the Bidens visited China, the Bank of China—which provides capital for the Chinese Communist Party’s statecraft—created an investment fund with Rosemont Seneca called Bohai Harvest RST (BHR). “In short, the Chinese government was literally funding a business that it co-owned along with the sons of two of America’s most powerful decision makers,” Schweizer explains. In July 2014, Kerry visited China. He claimed that “China and the United States represent the greatest economic alliance trading partnership in the history of humankind.” Schweizer recounts that at the same time, a former subsidiary of the Chinese government, Gemini Investments, sought to acquire Rosemont Realty, another branch of the Rosemont Capital tree run by Hunter Biden, Chris Heinz, and their business partner, Devon Archer. According to Schweizer, Gemini Investments has multiple ties to the Chinese Communist Party. The company’s director, Li Ming, served for several terms as a member of the party’s elite conference, and the company’s parent company, Sino-Ocean Land, originated from the China Ocean Shipping Company (COSCO). COSCO has close ties with the Communist Party and assists the Chinese navy. Gemini Investments also purchased the Rosemont Opportunities Fund II, another Rosemont Seneca arm, for $34 million in December 2014. In May 2015, Kerry visited China again. That August, Rosemont Realty announced that Gemini Investments was buying a 75% stake in the company, including a $3 billion commitment from the Chinese. Last year, Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., released bank records showing that Owasco PC, which Hunter Biden set up as a business entity, sent direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. Owasco has links to the Chinese energy company CEFC, where Hunter Biden served as a partner. Unanswered Questions An NBC News analysis of the Hunter Biden laptop found that Biden’s surviving son and his company brought in about $11 million through his roles with Burisma and his work with a Chinese businessman now accused of fraud. President Biden has repeatedly denied ever speaking with his son about his foreign business dealings, but he has also described his relationship with his son as very close, and a former business partner claimed Hunter Biden threatened to put his father on the phone when negotiating with a foreign business partner. Joe Biden could have been protecting his son with this overbroad pardon, but he could also have been protecting himself. Questions about Hunter Biden’s business deals necessarily involve his father’s influence, and the father has every motive to want to see his son get rich. Did business concerns play any role in Biden’s negotiations with foreign countries? Biden said he didn’t discuss the business dealings with Hunter, but he also promised he wouldn’t pardon his son. Biden’s word isn’t exactly gold there. Are any of Hunter Biden’s foreign business deals still paying dividends today? If not, why did the pardon extend up to Dec. 1, 2024? President Biden justified the pardon by claiming that his son suffered from “selective” prosecution. He noted that the prosecutions came “only after several of my political opponents in Congress instigated them to attack me and oppose my election.” He said that the plea deal that the Justice Department negotiated with Hunter would have been “a fair, reasonable resolution of Hunter’s cases.” Yet the actual truth is the opposite. Two career IRS employees testified that Hunter Biden received favorable treatment due to his father’s position. The plea deal fell apart in court because a federal judge looked closely at it, and found it “atypical” and “not straightforward.” The deal would have excused Hunter from any and all criminal responsibility for any of the crimes charged against him, in that case or any other. Sound familiar? Biden’s pardon seems to be yet another attempt to brush all potential scandal under the rug. The facts remain that Hunter Biden raked in millions of dollars in foreign business deals negotiated while Joe Biden influenced U.S. policy in Ukraine and China. It remains fair to ask questions about this, even though our ostensible betters in the press and in the Democratic Party loudly condemn those questions as conspiratorial. If Joe Biden has his way, the American people may never know the full extent of this corruption.

Medusa lurks in Tulsa, Oklahoma

In Steven Spielberg’s 1993 adaption of Michael Crichton’s popular novel “Jurassic Park,” there’s a scene in which Muldoon, the game warden, explains to the group that the velociraptors understand their caged predicament as a problem to be solved. “They were testing the fences for weaknesses systematically,” he says, as the group peers anxiously into the pen. So was McAdams really praying in earnest to the mythical snake-haired goddess you probably learned about in eighth-grade English? Of course, later in the film, when the park’s security system is shut down, the raptors do manage to escape their cage, leading to Muldoon’s bloody death. I bring this up because it reminds me of what just happened in Tulsa, Oklahoma, earlier this month. The Demon Star On November 20, an unremarkable woman named Ms. McAdams approached the podium at a Tulsa city council meeting. She was invited there to open the meeting with a prayer. And pray she did, but not to the God whom the state of Oklahoma recently decided to reinstate in its public school system by including the Bible in American history studies. Ms. McAdams prayed to Medusa. Introducing herself as a “priestess of the goddess,” she recited the following invocation. I invoke the Gorgonea, champions of equality and sacred rage. I call to Medusa, monstrous hero of the oppressed and abused. I open the eye of Medusa, the stare that petrifies injustice. I call upon the serpent that rises from this land to face the stars, the movement of wisdom unbound. May these leaders find within themselves the embodied divine, the sacred essence of the spark of the universe and the breath of the Awen. Place in the hands of these leaders the sacred work of protecting the sovereignty and autonomy of all our people. Gorgon goddess, make them ready and willing to be champions for all in this city, not just those in power. Shine a light for them that they may walk the path of justice protected and prepared, illuminating the darkness. Endow them with the fire of courage, the waters of compassion, the air of truth, and the strength of the earth itself. As above, so below; as within, so without; as the universe, so the soul. May there be peace among you all, and so it is. Why Medusa? McAdams opens by invoking the “Gorgonea,” a group of stars that make up part of the northern constellation Persesus. Consisting of four stars, the Gorgonea represents Medusa’s severed head. The brightest star among the four is named Algol — the “Demon Star.” According to the myth, of which there are several versions, Medusa was once a beautiful priestess who was turned into a snake-haired gorgon by Athena after she was raped by Poseidon in Athena’s temple. From that point forward, men (there’s no record of women) who gazed upon her would be turned into stone. The hero Perseus was sent to kill Medusa. Using a mirrored shield, Perseus was able to avoid her stony gaze and behead her. However, her severed head maintained its powers and proved to be a valuable weapon. So was McAdams really praying in earnest to the mythical snake-haired goddess you probably learned about in eighth-grade English? Yes and no. “Many Christians equate any reference to snakes or serpents directly with Satan, but I am referencing the serpents that makeup [sic] Medusa's hair. This is classical mythology and before Christianity, snakes were ancient symbols of feminine divinity, healing, and transformation," McAdams reportedly wrote in a Facebook post after her prayer sparked immediate backlash. So in a sense, yes, McAdams was really praying to the serpentine Medusa from Greek lore. However, those of us who know the truth understand that there is no snake-haired goddess dwelling among the stars who can assist the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma, in its battle for “equality” and “justice.” There is another serpent who could and would trick people into carrying out his sinister will under the guise of empathy and empowerment, but we’ll get to him in a minute. McAdams is an occult priestess, meaning she serves a specific deity — in this case, the goddess Medusa. Theoretically, all rites and rituals she performs are aligned with the will of Medusa. To do this, she must be deeply connected to what the occult calls “the otherworld” or “the spirit realm.” Modern priestesses are specifically concerned with raising consciousness and activating humans to carry out the will of the deity they serve. Notice how McAdams asks Medusa to inspire the city council members to act on behalf of certain “humanitarian” causes. During my research, I was surprised to discover that McAdams’ worship of Medusa as a powerful goddess of femininity is very common among occultists. They write and speak about her as if she is real and can be called upon for help and guidance. Many report that Medusa appears to them in dreams; others find that snakes seek them out. This is how they know that Medusa is calling to them. As I was reading, I came across multiple sources that instructed readers on how to “work with her.” It involves casting hexes on your abusers (remember: Medusa was raped), learning water magic and creating altars of seashells, coral, driftwood, and other oceanic items (Medusa was a sea deity), presenting blood sacrifices in the form of menstrual blood (Medusa is associated with feminine energy and power), and — surprise, surprise — collecting snake-related items, such as shed skin, amulets, etc. Those who engage in these types of rituals all report the same thing: Medusa will come. I believe them. I just don’t call her by that name. Beyond the Gorgon If it isn’t obvious already, Ms. McAdams and those like her are worshipping and carrying out the will of Satan — the shape-shifter who probably does appear or call to them in the form of a snake-haired goddess falsely promising righteous revenge on the male oppressors of society and deliverance for their female victims. And for the record, it doesn’t have to be Medusa. The occult worships many different deities and supernatural entities with names you’re probably familiar with. They’re all satanic. McAdams' prayer is a fusion of demonic and progressive ideologies, which are one and the same, as progressivism inverts biblical truth. She positions herself as all modern liberals do — a champion for the oppressed, in this case for women. That’s why she specifically invokes Medusa, a goddess of feminine power and the ideal figurehead for the radical feminist movement that lauds abortion and trans inclusivity but despises masculinity and the nuclear family — and wraps these ideas in deceptive platitudes of equality and freedom so that they’re widely appealing. Satan loves the modern feminist for these reasons. Breaches in the fence Like the raptors testing the security of the fences that prevent them from devouring the park tourists, Satan and his demonic legions are constantly testing the boundaries that have been erected to keep evil at bay. Their intention is also to devour. A decade ago, in Town of Greece vs. Galloway, the Supreme Court ruled that prayer before a legislative session was constitutional, so long as the opportunity was available to all faiths. I’m not surprised that Satan saw this as a chink in the fence. I’m also not surprised that we’re seeing him utilize this opening now, given Oklahoma’s recent decision to bring the Bible back into its classrooms. Further, Satan’s message is far more likely to land in this toxically empathetic society that rewards radicalism and fringe groups while demonizing anything that would fall under a Christian worldview. But Oklahoma is not the first place the demonic has brazenly shown its ugly face to the public. Last December, the Satanic Temple erected a statue of the demon Baphomet in the Iowa Capitol building in the name of religious freedom. In fact, there are multiple examples of the Satanic Temple worming its way into the political arena. These incidents are becoming more frequent as society’s “fences” become weaker and weaker. I hope we will not write off McAdams’ prayer as the dismissable ravings of a middle-aged woman who thinks Medusa is real. Medusa is real. His name is Satan.
