Evidence before certainty.
Paranormal Sightings preserves unusual records while keeping the source, the claim, and the conclusion separate.
What this archive is
This is an independent evidence archive for official releases, historic case photographs, civilian recordings, and moderated witness submissions. It welcomes curiosity without treating every unexplained image as proof of a paranormal cause.
How sources are labeled
- Authenticated source means the recording came from an official government release. It does not authenticate an extraordinary interpretation.
- Civilian capture identifies the known recording source or archive trail when available.
- Historic record means the photograph or document is real as an artifact; the claim shown may still be disputed, misidentified, or fraudulent.
- Witness submission means a community member supplied the file and context. It is reviewed before publication but is not independently proven by submission alone.
How case analysis works
Each analysis asks four questions: What is visibly supported? Which conclusions require missing data? What ordinary explanations remain open? What would materially strengthen or weaken the claim? We distinguish identification from performance: an object can remain unidentified while showing nothing anomalous.
Corrections and changing conclusions
Case labels should change when new source material, official findings, or credible technical analysis changes the evidence. Material uncertainty or contradictory official metadata is disclosed rather than silently resolved. Submit a correction request with the specific record and supporting source.
AI-assisted work
Research and drafting may use AI-assisted tools. Status claims should still be checked against the cited source record, and final publication decisions remain subject to human editorial review. AI-generated imagery is not presented as authentic evidence.
Monetization and independence
Advertising or other revenue does not determine whether a case is labeled unexplained, conventional, disputed, or false. Ads are kept separate from evidence labels and editorial conclusions.
