The daily-update news site began as a twice-monthly free newspaper, and has expanded to cover news from Eastern North Carolina to other states to space, covering regular news and events alongside ET/paranormal/unusual topics. We’re not your ordinary news! Online our “local and national unusual news” is available without subscription or registration.
