Captain 6's Halloween Treats

Here is a collection of some of my best mysterious, spooky and bizarre articles and links as the sun goes down on NY, for this iced-over Halloween:

The fire caused by lightning strike at the notorious Hudson River Psychiatric Center. I saw the lightning strike myself that evening, while working as a guard at a nearby property. It is a tragic place of misery.

What is Halloween without some magic?

The Berglas Effect - Holy Grail of Card Tricks

Two mind-blowing articles from Cracked magazine. Can coincidence really be so strange, or are there other powers at play?

Two tales I know to be fact. Whether or not you choose to believe them really makes no difference.

Can you spot a fake? Some say this vid was debunked and faked. Others still insist it is real.

And I seriously hope this one is fake!

The stage and entertainment have always been a world of illusion. But is there real magic afoot in the media which has formed how we think for generations now?

Homeland Security Zombie Invasion Exercise

Homeland Security Office Stages a Mock Zombie Invasion

An Ohio office of the Emergency Management Agency — part of the Department of Homeland Security —
will stage a mock zombie attack on Halloween using more than 225 volunteers dressed as zombies at an Ohio college.


“Organizers hoped the theme would attract more volunteers than previous simulations of industrial accidents or train crashes,” the AP reports, quoting a spokesman for the agency as saying that “People got zombie fever here in Delaware.” The exercise included decontamination procedures for hazardous materials, and was inspired by an “emergency preparedness” post on the CDC web site citing the popular fascination with zombies. (The number of zombie ebooks in Amazon’s Kindle store has increased by 13.9% in just the last two months.)

Now, “Dozens of agencies have embraced the idea,” the AP reports, “spreading the message that if you’re prepared for a zombie attack, you’re prepared for just about anything.”
