Mystery- The Haunted Town Of St. Nazianz, WI St. Nazians was founded by a priest who wholeheartedly believed to helped cursed the town. Over the years, the town has been hit with natural disasters and unexplained phenomena. Father Ambrose Oschwald was fled to Wisconsin in 1854 from religious persecution. The Roman Catholic Church had suspended him from his duties due to “mystical, prophetic, and heretical works.” Already, the scary history of the town is starting to make sense! Oddly enough, the congregation followed him. Once they got to Wisconsin, a “divine white heifer” lead them to the site of his new home which would become St. Nazianz. The community actually thrived. They titled themselves “The Association” and created an entirely functional society. Tragically, Father Oschwald became sick in 1873. Anton Still, a loyal follower, stayed with Father Osc...

In November 1284 Osbert Giffard, an English baron, was declared excommunicate.

In November 1284 Osbert Giffard, an English baron, was declared excommunicate. 

 In November 1284 Osbert Giffard, an English baron, was declared excommunicate. At the same time his lands were seized by Edward I.



Osbert had been accused of the rape and abduction of two nuns, Alice Russell and Anna Giffard, from the wealthy convent of Wilton. He then carried off one of the women, probably Alice, overseas to marry against her will and without royal license. 


Six months later he returned to England and returned his victims to the convent. Osbert then begged for absolution. His crime was declared a sin against the nation, and he was obliged to accept a heavy penance. First, he had to make satisfaction to the abbess and the convent. Then he had to appear before the door of Salisbury church, on Ash Wednesday, wearing mourning dress and with his head uncovered. He would then be paraded about the church, thrashed with sticks, and flogged about the market and the local churches and markets of Amesbury and Shaftesbury. 


These punishment beatings were repeated on three consecutive holy days and every Tuesday of the following month. Afterwards, Osbert was not allowed to call himself a knight or gentleman, wear armour or any clothing save that of a penitent, until he agreed to go to the Holy Land and fight the Saracens for three years.


The case was not unprecedented. In the previous reign, one of Henry III's Poitevins had smuggled a noblewoman abroad to marry against her will, apparently with the king's connivance. Henry had form in this area: for instance, he ordered the Earl of Gloucester to kidnap Margaret of Bromfield, half-sister to Prince Llywelyn of Wales, to prevent her marrying against the king's will. Simon de Montfort junior chased Isabella de Forz, the Countess of Devon, deep into Wales so he could force her to marry him (she escaped). 


The showy punishment of Osbert, public penance and all, may have been intended to show that such abuses were a thing of the past. They were not, of course: another notorious case occurred in 1288, when William Douglas 'the Hardy' abducted Eleanor de Ferrers, widow of the Baron of Groby in Leicestershire. And so it went on.

The horror they did to pragenet teens in camps. After searching the women pulling down their underwear. There's a private store room kept for the women, where they enjoyed their service, got most pragenet and killed the majority that can't satisfied them. Separate camps and compounds were set up exclusively for female prisoners who were considered strong enough for labor projects and menial chores. The largest women’s camp was Ravensbrück (near Berlin), where nearly 120,000 women from across Europe were sent. An estimated 50,000 women died there between 1939 and 1945. A special women’s section was also created in Auschwitz-Birkenau, where 34,000 women died between 1942 and 1943.

Sick ISIS savages film themselves burning two Turkish soldiers alive in disturbing new execution video after capturing them in Aleppo Sick ISIS savages have filmed themselves burning two Turkish soldiers alive having captured them in Aleppo. A disturbing video shows two men with freshly-shaved heads dressed in seemingly fuel-doused camouflage army gear taken out of a cage and walked like dogs to their death by Islamic State thugs. Standing barefoot in the middle of a desert, they are connected by the neck to a torched fuse which eventually engulfs their bodies in flames.  As news of the video reached Turkey, the government shut down social media outlets to stop the victims' countrymen seeing the exectuion.   The 19-minute video released by ISIS in the Aleppo Province starts with footage of terrorists fighting on the ground.  At the end of the clip, two men are taken from a cage in the middle of the desert.  They are walked like dogs by two ISIS militants, who ap...
