In 2011, Stephen McDaniel committed the brutal murder of his law school classmate Lauren Giddings. The two had come to know each other casually in one of their classes. That’s when McDaniel became obsessed with her. They both happened to live in the same apartment complex, and on the night before Giddings was supposed to […]
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); Some people in the world are fortunate enough to avoid working at a strenuous job. No job is perfect. However, those that end up sitting at desks with comfy chairs (or at least standing desks) can consider themselves lucky. Dangerous work and operating heavy machinery isn’t most people’s definition of fun. […]
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTAT_ATF’); }); Personally, my greatest fear isn’t death itself, but rather death by spider bite. I can’t imagine a more horrible way to die than getting bitten by a spider. Luckily for me, the chances of that happening, generally speaking, are very slim. In reality, I’m much more likely to fall victim to […]
Hopefully, most of us will never have to experience the horror of a landslide. These things are some of the most underrated natural disasters of all time. Just imagine being on a hillside in a rainstorm. Everything is wet, but it all looks solid. But all of a sudden, the ground gives way and starts […]
In the world of insects, you could make an argument for the praying mantis being the most majestic, even though it’s a ruthlessly efficient hunter. These bugs make quick work of taking down anything that gets in their way, yet still have a certain beauty about them that’s hard to find in other insects. But […]
With medical technology advancing at the rapid pace it is, the day when our health is managed by an army of nanobots living inside our bodies is probably not that far off. But in the meantime, the next big trend is most likely 3-D-printed organs. While you won’t be able to print them at home, […]
googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); For the adventurous among us, urban exploration is an exhilarating pastime. However, you must be careful when you’re exploring these places. Abandoned buildings are sometimes not as abandoned as you might think. That’s a lesson that urban explorer Jaroslava Langova learned in a terrifying way. Watch it all unfold in the […]
One thing spiders are known for, aside from their creepiness, is their sneakiness. Their ability to silently move around and scare the crap out of you by appearing out of nowhere is sort of their trademark. However, when you turn the tables and start creeping up on spiders…well, let’s just say they don’t like that […]
If you had to pick the creepiest part of your house, you’d probably end up with either the basement or the attic. These are the two areas in most homes where nightmares live. Usually, these fears are just figments of our imagination, but occasionally they turn out to be real. While you’ve probably read about […]
Urban exploration isn’t a hobby without risks. Those who choose to explore the unknown can expect to encounter a variety of strange situations. Very rarely, however, do they come across homemade electric chairs in the abandoned places they explore. In the middle of the desert, urban explorer Adamthewoo came across what looked like your average […]
