The Humbug of the Humbug of the Ghost of the Dragon Stadium



The photo of the old lady that supposedly has haunted the Dragon Stadium.

WORLD. ABOUT THE GHOST OF THE DRAGON STADIUM. The incident occurred on October 03. The disclosure of the fact started just over a week (between 14 and 23 October 2012). 

The headlines were reproduced in numerous newspapers in Portuguese and Spanish: a ghost celebrated the goal by Colombian James Rodríguez that decided a game of the Champions League between the teams of Porto and Paris Saint Germain in 1x0 for Porto.

The news don't called much attention in world level. So, "a Blog" ... (this one even) published the news in English. The site Fortean Times did put the headline on its list of breaking news (on 10.22.2012) and voila! The subject has become "viral" in the internet.

Many netizens claimed that the photograph, taken from the sequence of a TV camera - was a farse. Others even said they was not only fake but as it was a farce mounted deliberately to attract the public..



The photo, source of controversy.

Then, between 23 and 24 October, arises the owner of the Truth: a photographer, Eugenio Queiroz, claiming that, after an exhaustive search in his files, he discovered ALL!. A photograph taken by "another angle" would prove that the ghost was, in true, a lady of advanced age who "had trouble to get up" and celebrate the goal.

After this, the mass midia * who published the first version of the story were offensively called liars and opportunists.                                                  

* midia (Latin) = plural of media

Occurs that the photographer Eugenio Queiroz spent more than a week unearthing files to find the photo that able to "fit itself" in his theory. A photo of an event that happened recently. After this, publishes his theory of a "granny" fanatical and even speculates that this lady "took trouble to get up" (where's the DVD? where is the real prove?).

It would be nice Mr. Queiroz, the super-investigative journalist, unveil - also - the identity of the "granny" and prove that his picture is, in fact aphoto obtained in the specific game. Because the numerous games of the Port team have been held in the Stadium of the Dragon and the clothes of many fans - supporters, are standardized, such as jacket and fringed stole. Who knows the old lady earns some money with all this... She don't seems to be rich...

But - looking well, the "ghost" that appears in the first photo, is bald and, especially, for more that the image be enlarged, the glasses - that the granny uses in the photo presented by Queiroz, not appear. 

Thus, let's speculated more: the Grandma, possessing appreciable hair, sees the game without glasses but puts her glasses - after to get up. In fact, she does not seems to has get up. Seems leaning over the back of the chair in front of her.

Opportunism by opportunism, photshop for photoshop, this photographer is not better than anyone. He don't proven anything and the photo of the woman, in "another angle" and undated, appears only in the midia in a cropped version that decontextualizes the space around and does not allow a detailed comparison.

Moreover, with his "Granny", Mr. Queiroz, "the hero of Truth" - undoubtedly, took hitchhiked on the "fake ghost", in the farce of "the liars", and gave place to think that he wanted to release his own name since that his "discovery" led to a new wave of headlines in which the journalist became the news. Considering all this, now, who will go throw the first stone?

* Note: this blog like others of this genre works mainly with the fortean journalism, strange events or curious and amazing discoveries of Sciences. They are, in majority, events Chales Roy Fort called Damned (or "cursed facts", marginals). 

So the news of the "ghost of Estadio Dragon" was published here because as a disciple of Charles Fort, this editor does not despise easily what is considered absurd. Yet this editor was observing the headlines about the football's ghost during two days before disclosing the case. 

But the news was originally published by vehicles that claim the status of be serious and orthodox, however, when this ghost story appeared in these vehicles, about a week after the game, few gave the information of the day and location of the event.

Ghost Photographed in Champions League game

 
The ghost seems happy. Probably a football lusitanian fan.

PORTUGAL. It happened on October 03 (2012) in one of the most unlikely places for the occurrence to this kind of phenomenon: the Estadio do Dragão, city of Porto - Portugal (Dragoon Stadium).

During a football game of the Champions League's agenda, contest between the teams Porto (Portugal) and Paris Saint Germain (France), that finished with result of 1-0 for Porto, the cameras that recorded the celebration of the goal scored by the colombian James Rodríguez , captured the presence of a ghost among the fans who celebrated in the stands.

With fists clenched and a smile on his face, spectral man appears to share the enthusiasm of the fans. Evidently, many netizens who read the news observing the photo, they comment that it is "a montage." 

However, no confirmation of this hypothesis nor reason to justify the impossibility of a lost soul - attached to the living world - attend a football game and rejoice in the victory of their favorite team.

According to doctrine of Spiritism Kardecist and of the theosophical spiritualism, this material world is filled with spirits that remain on the earthly plane for different reasons, being that the most of these motivations are far less innocent than a passion for football.

They are lost souls who can not overcome the past life prisoners of inferior feelings like anger, revenge, resentment and other appetites - less subjective - like vices in alcohol and drugs, sex, greed, attachment to material goods accumulated. Some are linked to places that marked their physical existence. Others do not, moving with freedom between different places.

(Also according to spiritualism) ... Many of these souls pass can be found in homes, in shopping malls, on beaches, in public buildings such as offices and prisons, and why not (?) - if they loved football, in stadiums where are happening a game ... a football game ...

Portuguese Ufologists Denounce Millions of Abductions at the World


Zambujeiro - Portugal. 15/12/2011. Photo: Associação de Pesquisa OVNI.

PORTUGAL. The UFO Research Association (APO - Associação de Pesquisa OVNI) estimates that about 105 million people already have been brought from Earth by extraterrestrials. There is an increasing of abductions, explained the president, Luis Aparicio, the TVI-24.pt.

According to the expert on UFOs, moreover the abductions, there are inverse cases, when babies, are generated in the spacecrafts laboratories in genetical experiences realized in earthly women. These babies are reproduced in the millions, a mix between humans and aliens, hybrids with magical powers (super human powers). "here are millions of pregnant women on earth without explanation,"he noted.

The president of the association ensures that ..The greater evidential of the veracity of the abductions in Portugal is the very intense traffic of UFOs - that has been registered. We have found many evidences. At a place called Fountain of Tile, for example, there are, along many years, records of an intense activity of the UFO phenomenon, as sightings - said Luis Aparicio.

He added: When people return abductees, ...say come to earth with a mission... and even Jesus Christ and other preachers may have been aliens who came to announce something supernatural


Fatima apparition, 1917

 About the miracle of Fatima in 1917, the APO explains the event as a extraterrestrial action. They call it a "Marian apparition" a vision of Mary. What happened at Fatima was was an alien interference... with the goal of to influence the public opinion about what was happening in the Soviet Union, where the practice of the catholic religion had been banned.

Many among the ufologists believe - even being a thinking of the human perception of the noetic reality - the religion, specially the christian religion - has been used by aliens as an instrument to control the Humanity.

He added: When the abductees return, They begin to say that they are at the Earth with a mission and even Jesus Christ and other preacher may have been aliens who came to announce something supernatural. About the miracle of Fatima in 1917, the Association has its own explanation that are share with other researchers of the world. 

Religious persons, they really believe that this episode was a "Marian apparition", a vision of Mary. But: What happened at Fatima was the utilization of resource of aliens to influence the public opinion... specially about the russian politic situation of the epoch. The message of Fatima had a strong emphasis in the fact of the catholic religion to have had their public practice prohibited in that country - or better - in the Federation, in the Soviet Union. And the church appropriated of the event.

The president of the Association portuguese of ufology emphasizes - yet - the increase, recent, of cases of cattle mutilation. He comments: They are abducting the animals too and extracting their organs; then they throw the bodies back on Earth.



RELIGION, POLITIC AND ALIEN... OR HUMAN MANIPULATION

This image was obtained in a video posted on Youtube on 03/10/2011. The legend speculates: Is it a miracle? Is it the second coming of Jesus? Or something else? Bluebeam? HAARP? FAKE? Hoax? [http://youtu.be/P_WrhhQ2C4g]

About this subject, extraterrestrials and religious manipulation, since 1994, conspiracy theorists have been warning about a strange project: the Blue Beam Project, whose purpose is to establish a new world order. The project includes the extermination of what is considered a useless surplus of the world population on the planet through different artifices: epidemics, manipulation of the ecosystem, wars, for example.

Among the actions planned in this project there is - supposedly - a religious in nature:  providence the long-awaited return of Jesus by technological means. This miracle would be accomplished by projecting holographic image of the Messiah, in the sky - the emission of his voice, announcing the Last Judgment and the inevitable mass mortality of human beings. An extermination that everyone should accept as the fulfillment of God's will.

There are many texts in the Internet that talk about this project with details. In one of them is written:

Project Blue Beam is a program prepared to project religious images in the sky in a hologramatic presentation... With new super-computer technologies, it will be possible for super-computers and satellites, the interaction with your brain (with your believes,your faith) - from space and using a voice that all will think that is the voice "God"...  while will be seeing "Jesus" in the sky! 
PROJECT BLUE BEAM,2002.

Another text, with many detail is this: More on Project Blue Beam: Jesus is Coming-Kill the Enemies of God. MONAST, Serge.
[http://educateyourself.org/cn/projectbluebeamrelatedA01feb99.shtml]. IN Project Blue Beam. 

This author, Serge Monast (1945-1996) published his text in 1994. He was a journalist. According to the Conspiracy theories, Monast was murdered because of their denounces. In the introduction to the text, is said, too: Prior to his death, the Canadian government has abducted Serge's daughter in an attempt to dissuade him from pursuing his research into Project Blue Beam.

Black Magic haunts small city in Portugal


WHERE: Salvaterra dos Magos is a village, small town of the district of Santarém. Foros de Salvaterra is a "freguesia" (something like a parish) of the town of Salvaterra of the Magi. Santarém is an administrative district (like a federation's state). There are 18 administrative districts in Portugal. The country's capital, Lisbon and the cities of Évora, Coimbra and Porto are considered judicial districts.


PORTUGAL – In the town of Salvaterra dos Magos, a village of Foros de Salvaterra, in the last nine months, the population has been haunted by black magic. First, objects of evil cults began to appear the doors's houses. They are macabre things like raw viscera of animals accompanied by lighted candles, incenses and cigarettes burned.

There are two weeks that the witchcrafts are appearing in the cemetery of the village, too. Everything indicates that certain rituals are made, realy, because the headstones and graves are being damaged. The losses reach three thousand euros, even now. The authors of vandalism and practitioners of black magic have left animal livers on graves. Closures of marble and other noble stones were broken. Books of mortuary registers and decorative vases were stolen.



The letters were written for the same hand.


But the horror of this witchcrafts don't stop only in the tradition of the cursed objects. The threats come, too, by telephone, SMS, or even handwritten notes. They are messages that talk about death. The letters are sent to different families. The houses are near one of others but the families don't have blood links. The case is being investigated by the Guarda Nacional Republicana, GNR.

Globalized Halloween



Santo André, São Paulo ─ The Halloween, a european tradition celebrated on October 31, migrated from the old world to the globalized world. At the countries of portuguese language the date is marked by thematic parties. At Brazil, the Witche House Holistic Free University prepared an special event for the happening. The invitations are accompanied by a kit magic and the unique recomendation is wear black clothes, what supposedly offers energetic protection.

The editor of this blog doesn't agree with this idea. According studies and evidences, the black favors the silhouette because it gives the impression that the person is thin. However, in terms of magical protection, the black, which is known to absorb light, also picks up vibrations obscure. In fact, there aren't witches as in ancient times, no more. Let's meditate.

Meanwhile, at Lisboa, Portugal, the space of events Santiago Alquimista, near of São Jorge castle promises a creepy night. The feast is a invitation for strange creatures: vampires, ghosts, fairies, elves and witches, of course.
