A possible ghost child filmed in Mexico, a psychic who located a missing man in Texas, and a divorce brought about by a man's obsession with finding Sasquatch were among the weird and wondrous stories to cross our desk this past week.
A remarkable story of psychic intuition made headlines this past week when Texas medium was credited with finding a man who had gone missing for three days. Eric Allen White sparked a frenzied search after he wandered away from his care home in late December. A social media post about his disappearance caught the attention of psychic medium Vic Andrea, who contacted his caregiver and said that she felt a strong connection to the case. Given the go-ahead to use her gift to help, she meditated on the missing man and received a message about following birds. When she subsequently observed such animals flying overhead towards a greenway, she tracked their path and quickly found White, who had fortunately only sustained minor injuries from the ordeal.

This past week featured a pair of videos showing possible paranormal activity. First, a truck driver in Mexico captured footage of what appeared to be a child inexplicably running down a road in the middle of the night. Some viewers of the video, which went viral on Mexican social media, suggested that the diminutive figure was the spirit of a youngster. Meanwhile, others theorized that the 'ghost' was a clever distraction on the part of criminals hoping that the driver would stop to help the tot, which he did not. Later in the week, footage of a curious cluster of lights maneuvering strangely in the night sky over Colorado caught our attention. Theories for what the odd orbs were included aliens, of course, secret aircraft, or just some lanterns.

The weirdest story of the week came by way of Canada where a man's quest to find Bigfoot came back to haunt him during his divorce proceedings. In a judge's decision concerning the split, it was noted that the marriage ended after his wife discovered that he had secretly taken an ex-girlfriend with him on a Sasquatch hunt. Compounding the cryptozoological connection to the case, his request for alimony was rebuffed by the court as his claims of being unable to work due to injuries sustained in yet another search for Bigfoot were called into question. In handing down his verdict, the judge expressed skepticism over the man's assertion because he continues to venture into the wilderness to look for the elusive creature.
