Heather Wades into night from the Kingdom of Nye: Bell's family retakes website for "legacy" .. Developing..
Art Bell fans who have been following the long career he held and the shows he hosted will know that Heather Wade was handpicked by the talk show legend himself as his successor on MIDNIGHT IN THE DESERT. That program aired most recently before his Friday the 13th death in April of this year..
Wade's adventures in late night radio have not been without controversy. Shortly before Bell's death, he was helping promote her venture into Area 51...
Multiple venues hosted her program briefly in the short aftermath of Art Bell's passage from this planet, with no true home being found. And to make matters even more contentious, Art Bell's long time webmaster Keith Rowland had a very public dispute about her doing programs to begin with!
He wrote multiple times that she was in violation of a non-compete clause when she left Midnight in the Desert post-Bell-mortem..
As of today, host very much loved paranormal heavyweight Dave Schrader has taken up the mantle as the chief host of MIDNIGHT..
For months, Wade vanished into the darkness of the night .. until now..
Heather Wade has made it public: She is returning to broadcasting radio from Pahrump, the same Nye County town in Nevada that Art Bell himself hosted live nightly for decades..
KCAA and KYAH will broadcast her new program, THE KINGDOM OF NYE... The program debuts on October 1 2018.
Subscribers will still be able to sign up.
The program promises to showcase the various bumper songs that Bell also used for years..
And Wade said she still plans on the Area 51 visit..
Wade's former website that included the namesake of Bell has been taken away from her .. According to what we have learned, Airyn Bell and family has taken away Wade's ownership of her previous domain in order to "carry on Bell's true legacy." ... that website contains a countdown clock to whatever reveal will occur in 8 days.
Wade's program will air at the same time it did when it was MIDNIGHT IN THE DESERT.. 9pm Pacific, 12am Eastern..
It will compete against Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis, Coast to Coast Am with George Noory, and Midnight in the Desert with Dave Schrader..
There is a mixed response to Wade's return. The kingdom of Bell fans have become divided on her hosting and her new show.. The outcome of her return will be seen within days..
FIRST FALL WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Audience growing weary of politics
From DEADLINE:
The news isn't good for a trio of high-profile fall festival films opening nationwide box office — Michael Moore's new doc Fahrenheit 11/9, the edgy teen black comedy Assassination Nation and Dan Fogelman's Life Itself, according to early returns.
The only new movie doing decent business is a more commercial, Hollywood studio offering: Eli Roth's big-screen adaptation of the beloved kids book, The House With a Clock in Its Walls. The family friendly pic is headed for a weekend haul of $24 million-$25 million from 3,592 theaters after grossing $7.8 million on Friday, easily enough to top the chart.
And to be fair to Moore's newest flick: FAHRENHEIT 9/11 was released in over 2,000 theaters. .this go around the Trump documentary has been released in roughly just over 1,700..
But we have, as a nation of pop culture digesters, become quite ill from too much Trump. Yes, its ratings. But equally so, it's not when we want to escape at the theater..
DEVELOPING THIS FALL WEEKEND..

One hole of a mystery in Arkansas
Dateline MIDWAY ARKANSAS:
Flames as high as 8 to 9 feet were shooting from a hole in the ground when a fire chief got to the scene, he told the Springfield News-Leader.
“It burned that way for 30 to 45 minutes before it went out,” fire chief Donald Tucker told the newspaper.
The hole is the size of a volleyball and located just off Highway 5 South in Midway, Arkansas, KY3 reported. That’s a town of about 1,000 people in the northern-most part of the state.
Once the fire burned out, Tucker told the News-Leader that he took a temperature reading — it was 780 degrees inside, he said. The hole was about 3 and a half feet deep..
“But what caused it? I have no idea,” Tucker, chief of the town’s Volunteer Fire Protection District, told the paper. “There’s no gas lines nearby and there was no smell of natural gas.”
He isn’t the only official who has no idea what could have caused a burning hole in the ground.
“I can’t think of any geologic situation that would allow that to happen. Not in this area,” Ty Johnson with the Arkansas Geological Survey told KY3. “There’s not any fossil fuels, or natural gas or petroleum that occurs in the area.”
Geologists said they don’t think it was a lighting strike, according to the TV station.
And Jim Sierzchula, director of Baxter County’s Office of Emergency Management, told the News-Leader that the cause is still a mystery.
“At this time we don’t have a clue what it is,” he told the newspaper. He thinks it looks like an “existing hole,” and he said it smelt like burnt plastic when he got there.
Here is one of the HORROR REPORT'S favorite YouTubers showcasing some local reporting on the bizarre hole with no explanation:
There is another part of this mystery to consider. While experts state that there was no meteorite, no gas lines, no construction, no booms of any kind, a little more digging into the hole (no pun intended) is necessary before ruling all of that out..
The Baxter Bulletin from Arkansas actually reported booms around August 27 2018 in Midway.
This is the report from the local paper:
And in the early part of the summer of 2018, massive booms were being heard and felt in various parts of Arkansas and adjoining states as illustrated by this news article:
A loud explosion was heard shortly after 2:30 p.m. on Monday. Residents across the Twin Lakes Area reported hearing the noise.
Local law enforcement officials have reported receiving numerous calls about the noise. One local law enforcement official said people in Fulton County reported hearing the noise as well.
Social media sites had people reporting they heard the noise in places such as Melbourne, Calico Rock, Norfork, Mountain Home, Marion County and rural Baxter County.
A boom so strong it shook ceiling tiles in the West Plains area was heard and felt over much of the Ozarks shortly after noon. It may have been a meteor exploding high in the atmosphere. At least that's a working theory at the National Weather Service in Springfield, which received several calls about the 12:15 p.m. event. "We first realized it when we got a call from the Little Rock office that they were getting all these reports from the Mountain Home area about a very loud, shaking boom," said Mike Griffin, meteorologist at the Springfield NWS office. "We talked to the Howell County dispatch center and they were taking a tremendous amount of calls, powerful enough it shook ceiling tiles." Griffin said he had seen reports on social media of people hearing and feeling the boom in Bolivar, West Plains and Houston, Missouri, as well as Mountain Home, Arkansas, Gainesville, Bakersfield and Salem.
Did these loud noises and explosions with earth shaking but not quaking have anything to do with this bizarre hole that shot flames from within the Earth appearing? A hole that defies all logic and expertise..? A hole that has no explanation from leading experts in fields of study who would be able to give scientific and level-headed analysis?
AT this point the only conclusion we have is that this is a mystery without a conclusion. Period.
And while this may not have any direct correlation, it's certainly worth noting and considering:
A thermal spring near Old Faithful in Yellowstone National Park has erupted for the fourth time in the last 60 years, a park official said Thursday.
Ear Spring on Yellowstone's Geyser Hill went from being dormant on Saturday to spewing steam and water between 20 and 30 feet (6 and 9 meters) high, a height not recorded since 1957, said park spokesman Neal Herbert. It has since continued to erupt at a near-constant height of about 2 feet (0.6 meters), he said.
THE HALLOWEEN SOUNDTRACK FOR 2018!
And a soundtrack sample is adding to the flare of the season.
Without further delay.. John Carpenter 40 years after 1978's SHAPE debut:
Halloween 40 reviews continue to trickle.. and they become more positive about the performances..
The latest entry in the Halloween franchise is both a dazzling tribute to the original film as well as a unique, standalone story. It’s filled with deviations from the familiar slasher formula, but it also carefully incorporates an adoration of its predecessor that feels respectful but not overpowering. By balancing these two seemingly divergent concepts, director David Gordon Green has made a truly special horror sequel.
Set exactly 40 years after the John Carpenter original, this new Halloweenpretends none of the other sequels happened (sorry, Josh Hartnett). What did happen was, in 1978, a man named Michael Myers killed a bunch of kids, leaving behind a lone survivor named Laurie Strode. Strode was deeply traumatized by the experience and spent the next four decades preparing for what she believes is Michael’s inevitable return.
People who have seen the film or speculated on it say that Jamie Lee Curtis, without her Activia, displays a gritty performance.. someone who has had a life ruined by the events now 40 years previous in this fiction world...
We are told that this film will include references to previous HALLOWEENS, a disposition of back stories since Michael's 1978 escape,
Lussier concludes:
Halloween isn’t just a really great horror movie, it’s a great movie, period. It’s rough around the edges at times but wins you over with its passion, its originality, and its excitement. Ultimately, it makes you hope we don’t have to wait another 40 years to see the continuation of this version of Michael Myers’ story.
White House aides quietly stunned by Trump's respectful handling of Kavanaugh accuser
White House aides who steeled themselves for what President Donald Trump would say when he finally addressed the sexual assault allegation against his Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh were quietly stunned when Trump said the process should be followedand the accuser should be heard.
In recent days, Trump has bragged about the positive coverage he's received for his response, according to multiple sources. That response has contributed to him continuing to say Christine Blasey Ford should come forward with her story, they said.
As of Thursday, officials felt confident Kavanaugh was back on track toward confirmation.
It appears that Sunspot solar observatory and nearby post office was shut down because a janitor had child porn images
A federal search warrant reveals that Sunspot Solar Observatory was shut down as FBI agents conducted computer forensic searches for child pornography.
The source of child pornography was traced to an IP address used at the observatory and a source within the building observed a computer with "not good" images on it, the warrant states.
An investigation by the FBI revealed that a janitor is the main suspect in the search, however he has not been charged with a crime even though his name in on the warrant.
The warrant states the suspect would use the observatory Wifi and a personal laptop to download the child pornography.
X X X X
So that is now officially the official story. We are told.
Of course people online are questing the veracity of the stated series of events and how a janitor, who it took days to track down for having images of child porn, is the reason that an entire observatory was shut down, black helicopters swooped in, a post office was closed, and nearby homes were evacuated.
Trick or treat: The return of Asteroid 2015 TB145
Asteroid 2015 TB145 resembles a human skull in the correct light. It swept by Earth in 2015. This Halloween it returns yet again..
This dark object measures between 625 and 700 meters, its rotation period is around three hours and, in certain lighting conditions, it resembles a human skull. In 2015, Ttghe object was discovered a few days earlier on October 10 from Hawaii using the Pan-STARRS telescope, however, the fact that it came closest to our planet on Halloween also helped it become known as the Halloween asteroid.
And beyond?
Thomas Müller, a researcher from the Max-Planck Institute, said: “The next slightly more exciting encounter will be around Halloween’s day in the year 2088, when the object approaches Earth to a distance of about 20 lunar distances.
Mulder and Scully still have the sunspot case
The internet firestorm over the sudden closure of the Sunspot Solar Observatory went worldwide within the last 10 days..
As of yesterday, there was finally an official statement of some form as to why. But the statement is not going to end the rampant speculation -- these types of events get their fodder from "official statements" that fail to answer directly reasons why events occurred.
The group that manages the Facebook page for the New Mexico facility say they are cooperating with on an ongoing criminal investigation..
The Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy said "we became concerned that a suspect in the investigational potentially posed a threat to the safety of local staff and residents. For this reason, AURA temporarily vacated the facility and ceased science activities at this location."
AURA said it was their decision to vacate...
The sheriff in town offers a different opinion, of course.. initially when the facility closed Benny House told the press that the FBI shut the facility down.. The local police and media reported Blackhawk helicopters circling the area and "a bunch of people and work crews" with antennas..
In traditional FBI protocol, the agency is not confirming or denying an investigation.
The facility is reopening.. but the theories are not ending.
The whole event has the feel of a true life X FILES episode in action.
The real version, not fiction.
