A cluster of UFOs spotted passing over a Mexican volcano, a British psychic's eerie warning that possibly came true, and a Florida mat who feasted on his own pet peacocks to settle a strange feud with his neighbor were among the weird and wondrous stories to cross our desk this past week.
Two weird webcam videos caught our attention this week as they just may have provided a glimpse of some high strangeness. First, diligent Loch Ness livestream viewer Eoin O’Faodhagain captured yet another potential 'monster' sighting when he noticed a rather sizeable anomaly emerge from the waters of the famed Scottish site. Estimating that the peculiar form was a whopping seventeen feet long, he argued that it had to be Nessie, as no known animal at Loch Ness could grow to such an enormous size. Meanwhile, in Mexico, a webcam watching over the famed Popocatépetl volcano filmed several glowing anomalies that some believe were UFOs traveling around the site that has long been suspected of being a secret alien base.

This past week featured a particularly eerie story of a psychic prediction possibly coming true in a rather unfortunate fashion. During a visit to a fortune teller, Hannah Roper was cautioned by the mystic that she should not venture to the neighboring town of Fenton and, if she did, she must be careful consuming alcohol. Despite its inconvenience, she heeded the weirdly specific warning for six months until finally breaking the self-imposed embargo one fateful evening that she later came to regret. While having a few drinks at a friend's house in Fenton, Roper went to use the restroom, but mistakenly passed through the cellar door instead, which sent her careening down the stairs and sustaining a brain injury that necessitated a metal plate being put in her head.

By far the most bizarre story of the week came from Florida, where a man was arrested for animal cruelty after he allegedly killed and ate his own pet peacocks to spite his neighbor, who had refused to heed his repeated requests to stop feeding the birds. The culmination of a long-running feud between the two, the suspect revealed the twisted meal in a gruesome letter wherein he boasted of his actions to the unnamed woman. When cops investigating the case questioned the man about his account, the suspect readily admitted to following through on what had been a previous threat to eat the colorful creatures and even detailed to police the process by which he cooked the peacocks in a frying pan.
