I'm sitting here in my study because I just turned on the T.V. and at random saw a preview for a new “paranormal research” show. I'm pretty sure you would agree with me that modern television has been over saturated with over hyped shows on the paranormal. Some winners and a whole lot of losers as my grandfather would put it. Network TV has sold out in my opinion. I stopped watching almost all paranormal television when I got a chance to see National Geographic's “breakout hit” Chasing UFO's. Which features once credible UFO researcher James Fox. The show is filled with so much manufactured drama. What they pass off as investigation is nothing more than an over puffed version of Ghost adventures, which is at least funny at times. Come on we want a real show that we can sink our teeth into. I'm waiting out there In the darkness.

The Flatwoods Monster, also known as the Braxton County Monster or the Phantom of Flatwoods, is an alleged unidentified extraterrestrial or cryptid reported to have been sighted in the town of Flatwoods in Braxton County, West Virginia, on September 12, 1952. Stories of the creature are an example of a purported close encounter of the third kind.

A Texas witness at Cotulla included one frame from an oil company security camera depicting a "disc-like" UFO on or near the ground in a January 5, 2013, report, claiming the image has already made the rounds among employees, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database. Readers should be cautious of any photography before MUFON investigates this case. There are a small percentage of reports that are hoaxes; and some photography can further be explained as something man-made or from Mother Nature. The reporting witness explained the circumstances behind the photograph in the report. "My father works in an oil company here in Texas, and they had noticed that some people were taking the crude oil in the night," the witness stated. "So they started putting cameras up around the areas. One night one camera caught a UFO." A single image was provided with the MUFON report, which was filed on January 5, 2013. The incident allegedly occurred on July 6, 2012. The witness explains that the photo had been circulated, but with no further explanation. "The news had spread throughout the workers and they soon emailed it to my father. My father had sent it to me and now I'm posting it here on MUFON." The above quotes were edited for clarity. Cotulla is a city in and the county seat of La Salle County, TX, population 3,614. This story and photo has a High Warning of Caution until an investigation is completed.
