On this day, 30 October 1944, the left-wing Greek People’s Liberation Army liberated Thessaloniki from Nazi occupation. At dawn, GPLA units stopped the Nazis from blowing up power plants and food factories, while others attacked retreating German units. By 2 PM liberation was complete and the partisans began parading through the streets. The population then gathered and elected representatives of self-government. The city remained under the control of the local community until February the following year when it was taken over by the right-wing Greek state. Over the course of the occupation, Thessaloniki lost 10% of its population, 96% of its Jewish population and 90% of its industry. https://ift.tt/2RpUTIq
Located in Huntsville Alabama, this haunted playground is situated behind Maple Hill Cemetery (the state’s largest and oldest cemetery).It is set in a low spot and surrounded by rocks and trees on three sides, making it all the more claustrophobic.
The playground has accumulated a deep catalogue of supernatural associations. Locals have claimed to hear children laughing/screaming in the middle of the night. They have seen swings move on their own and ghostly orbs floating around at night.
Legend says that during the 1960s, the area around Huntsville was gripped by a terrible rash of child abductions that devastated the city. Unfortunately, many of the children didn’t survive the clutches of their captors, and their bodies were discovered around the area where the macabre playground now sits.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
