A possible full-bodied apparition photo, a Michigan marijuana dispensary offering a 'Sasquatch special,' and a Kentucky man with a rather colorful criminal history involving both a raccoon and a mule were among the weird and wondrous stories to cross our desk this past week.
This past week featured a trio of stories showcasing possible evidence of paranormal activity, beginning with an eerie real estate listing seemingly showing a full-bodied apparition. Noticed by a former owner's family member who heard the residence had gone up for sale, the creepy photos of a bar area reveal what appears to be a ghostly white figure manifesting on a stool. Later in the week, a mystified witness in Taiwan captured footage of a curious cluster of flickering UFOs that cruised through the sky over a city. Finally, a group of Scottish teens were stunned when they spotted a peculiar black orb that swiftly and silently sailed over their heads while out for a late-night stroll.

In a testament to how Bigfoot is beloved by all generations, this past week saw the legendary cryptid celebrated by two decidedly different demographics. First, in Michigan, a community's excitement over a recent Sasquatch sighting extended to a local cannabis dispensary that announced a rather unusual deal wherein customers who could provide a picture of the elusive cryptid would be rewarded with a free joint. Meanwhile, in Washington State, a fifth-grade class successfully lobbied a county to pass a resolution protecting Bigfoot. Making the achievement all the more commendable is that it marked the fourth straight year that students from Lincoln Elementary School managed to pull off the cryptozoological feat.

By far the weirdest story of the week came by way of Kentucky where a man arrested for a strange incident involving a raccoon was revealed to have previously run afoul of the law during a misadventure with a mule. The colorful crime spree came to light when cops in the city of Murray arrested Jonathan Mason for allegedly releasing a proverbial trash bandit into an open business where it subsequently bit a person. It was later learned that the troublemaker was no stranger to authorities in the community as, six months earlier, Mason attempted to flee police while riding a mule after he had been thrown out of a bar for being unruly.
