This week I am mostly listening to albums by artists beginning with the letter - N The Night Monitor - This House is Haunted #MusicSky @thenightmonitor.bsky.social Eerie is the right word for this retro-sounding synth workout. Love this music. thenightmonitor.bandcamp.com/album/this-h...

Something extraterrestrial for this #cassunday @fonolith.bsky.social The Night Monitor - Close Encounters of the Pennine Kind (2023, Fonolith)

Phantom Circuit #463: Phase Change Music from @zeynepsophiamusic.bsky.social @thenightmonitor.bsky.social @soundhex.bsky.social @lagowski.com @david-soulscorch.bsky.social @deathtapesuperbass.bsky.social @toxicchicken.bsky.social & many more. First heard on @beachyheadradio.bsky.social yesterday.

In the 1970s, two small boys unearthed a pair of tiny stone heads from their garden in the village of Hexham in the UK. We still don't know exactly what the Hexham heads are - or where they've gone. theghostinmymachine.com/2026/01/26/u...

This encounter also inspired @thenightmonitor.bsky.social to capture the eeriness and wonder of them in this fine recording thenightmonitor.bandcamp.com/album/percep...

#WyrdWednesday One of my favourite weird Christmas tales, the classic account by Jean Hingley of Rowley Regis, Birmingham, of being visited on the 4th of January 1979 by three fairy-like UFOnauts who discussed Jesus, the Queen and Tommy Steele with her before she offered them some mince pies.

Five years ago, I released my strange little alternative Christmas track 'Dance of the Mince Pie Martians' on 25th December 2020, and it's amazing to see it's reached over 445,000 plays on Spotify 🌲👽🌲 Thanks to everyone who's listened, and best wishes for the holiday season and beyond 🛸

Going into 2026 like...

Spooky Advent day 19: Seasons Greetings from the Black Monk of Pontefract. In the late 70s a local news story on this council house-dwelling poltergeist used a v shonky/spooky special effect on a mirror so terrifying I had to turn every mirror round in every room I slept in until I was in my 20s.

Norman Chastain's Demon Plant! aka Stinkhorn. But he connects it his creature encounter near Blount Island in Jacksonville, Florida on January 26, 1972 that B Ann Slate wrote about in SAGA UFO Report, Summer 1974.

Would be so cool to track down this original painting James Klappis did of this Orangeville, Ontario sighting. I always wonder what happens to these pieces of arts. I hope they still exist somewhere.
