Thinking Blogger Award

Grimm is one of the regular readers here and he posted a comment on Tuesday's post about a surprise for me waiting at his blog. Well, the surprise turned out to be a blogging award/meme called Thinking Blogger Award. This blog was one of three that he felt was worthy of it. I feel so honored. Thanks, Grimm!

Now, it is my turn to pass the spotlight to five other deserving bloggers. Allow me to first start with the rules:

1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think,
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme,
3. Optional: Proudly display the 'Thinking Blogger Award' with a link to the post that you wrote (here is an alternative silver version if gold doesn't fit your blog).

It was hard to narrow it down to five but here are the ones that I have chosen:

1. The Paranormal Blog - I've nominated this blog a couple times for blog awards. Sue and Matt's blog is basically similar to this one except they know a thing or two more than I do on this subject. If you want a professional view on ghosts, I don't know any better place than theirs.

2. Blog from the Darkside - Steve is another regular reader here and a writer to boot. I won't lie. I do give some preferential treatment to writers. Blog from the Darkside contains a mixture of horror, writing and some things in between.

3. The Blog of Death - This one may not be what you think it is. It's basically a collection of obituaries. I first discovered this blog when looking for information on Jonathan Brandis, the actor that was in The Neverending Story 2 and SeaQuest. I was wondering what happened to him and found out that he committed suicide. Did anyone else not know that?

4. Doctor Fong's House of Mysteries - This blog is a little beyond words, but a good one none the less. Check it out for yourself.

5. Daily Piglet - A cool chick who blogs about pretty much anything but usually what is going on with her and her family. I have one of those "cool moms", and this lady is totally in the same category. She's hilarious and worth the read!

Congrats to you five! You all deserve the recognition. You don't have to participate, but why not? Its fun and plus you are in the position to share with your readers five more 'thinking blogs' they may have never heard of.

Thanks again, Grimm for the honor!

Black Aggie

First of all, I would like to wish everyone a Happy Horror Day. Later on tonight, you will have a chance to win 1,000 BlogMad credits. Keep checking for that. Now on to tonight's first story. Henry Adams hired American sculpture Augustus St. Gaudens to construct a memorial for his beloved wife, Marian "Clover" Adams who committed suicide after the death of her father. After four years, the piece was finished in 1891. It was never officially named, but it was mostly known as the "Adams Memorial" and later "Grief". Stories vary as to how it received that nickname. The statue was so fascinating that a sculpture named Eduard L.A. Pausch copied it. The statue would go to be named "Black Aggie". General Felix Agnus purchased the copy in 1905 to place at his family's tomb. Then had a monument and pedestal created that would closely match the setting of the Adams Memorial in Washington. No one knows exactly why he chose this statue. A year later,...

Reader Submission - The Creeper

There is a true life story, about a little boy at the time called Richard. Richard was baker/acted into the Waverly Hills Sanatorium WHGC way back in 1967. The two doctors and three nurses that were present in the ECT room on August 20th 1967 9:32 am, all signed and swore it to be true. The Creeper actually manifested inside the ECT room, and shrouded the child from electrocution. They also say the child had entities all around him while in his stay. Richard was said to be one of the most powerful Clairsentient Empathetic children, to ever walk threw the Waverly Hills Sanatorium doors, and the same goes for the St Albans Sanatorium. My father and his friends have been collecting files, along with me and my team on this child for over 50 years now. All this broke in May 20th 2015 when one of the last living WHGC nurses was found alive in California. She had some how found this child in order to give him a case files she stole over 50 years ago out of the Wood Haven Geriatrics Center...

Edna Collings Bridge

Edna Collings Bridge also known as Edna Collins Bridge was built in 1922 over Little Walnut Creek. It was the last covered bridge built in Putnam County, Indiana replacing a concrete bridge washed out in high waters. And it's believed to be haunted. The most common story is Edna Collins was a little girl who went swimming in Little Walnut Creek often as she lived nearby. Her parents would drop her off on their way to town. When they returned, they would honk the horn three times to let her know it was time to leave. One day, her parents followed their usual routine except this time Edna failed to respond. Upon searching the creek, she was found dead (allegedly by her father), having drown. Circumstances concerning her death unknown. Variations of this story has her mother following her in death. Grieving over lost of her child, her mother placed a noose around her neck and hung herself. Another piece has her father being the one who built the bridge and named it after his daugh...
