Ships aren't the only things that disappear out there
Yeah there have been planes that fly over the Bermuda Triangle that claim to have been sucked into this cloud like vortex where they lose power completely and all kinds of other fucked up shit. Some have said within this vortex lighting bolts are being shot at them while they';re crashing to the ground. A lot of people actually say it's extra-terrestrial workings.
According to one version of a legend that is already recorded in the Middle Ages the scribe was a monk who broke his monastic vows and was sentenced to be walled up alive. In order to forbear this harsh penalty he promised to create in one single night a book to glorify the monastery forever, including all human knowledge. Near midnight he became sure that he could not complete this task alone, so he made a special prayer, not addressed to God but to the fallen angel Lucifer, asking him to help him finish the book in exchange for his soul. The devil completed the manuscript and the monk added the devil's picture out of gratitude for his aid.
In tests to recreate the work, it is estimated that in order to reproduce only the calligraphy, without the illustrations or embellishments, would have taken 5 years of non-stop writing.
" At 12:17 am, on any given night, arises the opportunity to awaken an alternate soul. The most common way of viewing them? Through a mirror.
It is through said medium that the process must take place. Begin at exactly midnight. By no light but that of a single candle, stand before the selected mirror. For ten minutes you must concentrate in silence, focused entirely on your reflection. Do not look away from the eyes; for it will be interpreted as weakness and you will be overcome.
After ten seconds have passed you must draw blood to smear in a line across the eyes of your reflection. Doing so will blind it, and you will watch as your own features begin to warp. Slowly, gradually, they will mutate into a frightening creature, one beyond the comprehension of those who have not experienced it. You must not look away through the entirety of the change.
Soon the writhing movements of the image will cease. By now an echoing, inhuman sound will resound all around you, the creature will begin to ease toward the mirror’s glass. You must keep watching as it approaches.
If you do not extinguish the candle at exactly 12:17, the creature will escape.
Be warned, should you succeed; through any polished surface, be it mirror, wood, or window, your reflection will always be watching."
Well yeah I guess not in that sense. It's just bizarre as fuck.
well it has the actual bible in it... as well as what they refer to "all human knowledge". (Science and math formulas and whatnot)
they reason they call it "the devil's bible" is because the monk wrote it the night before he was to be walled alive (as punishment for sinning)... he wrote and illustrated what would take 5 years of non-stop writing, in a single night.
the show said that around midnite the monk realized he was never going to finish so he made a deal with satan to help him finish the book. therefore making it a bible written by the hand of the devil.

There's a popular story here at GW about one of the halls, named The West End. A friend of mine who is a senior said that he and his girlfriend have had several encounters with it. It's one of the cooler stories I've heard here.
