Exorcism at Thorpe Park

This is totally viral marketing for this theme park, but whatever...:

SPOOKED bosses at a theme park have suspended six members of staff and called in an exorcist after a late night seance on their top horror ride sparked a string of ghostly happenings.

The workers at Thorpe Parke carried out a Ouija board session on the horror themed rollercoaster SAW - The Ride after the opening night of their creepy Halloween themed "Fright Nights".

The group chose the park's newest ride, which boasts gruesome features mimicking the sinister torture scenarios from the grisly film SAW, as the scariest place in the park to hold it.

But bosses didn't see the funny side when they heard staff had tried to communicate with the spirit world through a talking board which has been blamed for subsequent paranormal going-ons.



I kinda hate rollercoasters.

A Thorpe Park insider said: "Guests started to report an extreme drop in temperature when they walked into the ride building where the seance was held and others unusual happenings.

"Lights started to go on and off with no explanation and the special effects would start up even after being switched off and there were reports of footsteps with nobody there.

"Doors could be heard banging and it was then news of the Ouija board session came out and the members of staff responsible have been spoken to and suspended from work."

Thorpe Park in Surrey has now called in Rev Lionel Fanthorpe, the UK's leading authority on the unexplained, who is currently examining the ride for evidence of paranormal activity.

He says if he finds any signs of spirits "crossing over from the other side" he will carry out an exorcism.



In unrelated news, I'm just having one of those days where everything seems to go wrong. It's definitely a pattern that has to do with getting woken up by the TV upstairs. It seems like every time this happens, I have a very hard time not being very angry throughout the day. I can't tell if I'm angry that I have to endure the electromagnetic blast being put out by that monstrous television, or if I'm angry because nothing is working out the way I want it to. Either way, this sucks. Is it just me or have I mentioned this about 3,000 times in this blog already? It just keeps happening.


Everyone seems to be focused on the giant runaway UFO balloon that a 6 year old boy was supposedly in (I never saw any evidence that proved he was even inside it), and it's interesting that his dad is into pyramids on Mars and the boy's name is "Falcon" (Horus, age 6/Sun), but as amazing as these synchronicities are there is something fishy about it... A Young Falcon/Horus (Solar symbol) traveling inside of a UFO? Really now?

"They're unusual, yes, of course. He's sort of a scientist slash inventor. They're storm chasers -- they go after tornadoes, hurricanes, things like that," he said.


Is this one of those guys that chases UFOs for the government? Falcon is an odd name for a human being, which probably means that the dad here knew what he was doing naming his kid after the symbolic bird of prey.

Also, did anyone pick up the symbolism in the title of Michael Jackson's new song "thIS IS it"?
