Down the Chupacabra Hole

Over the past decade people around the world have been hearing mysterious sounds emanating from the sky. These bizarre trumpet-like blasts seemingly have no source. Individuals have recorded this haunting noise across North America, South America and throughout Europe. In 2008 the first known video was shared on Youtube by a resident of Homel, Belarus. Countless others have since posted unexplainable footage of their own.

Many state that there are physical vibrations generated which cause the ground to move and homes to shake. Those who experience this haunting sound often describe feeling incredibly anxious. Some suffer from vivid nightmares in the weeks following their auditory experiences. Whether these ailments are physiological or psychological is still up for debate.

There are those who believe it’s a sign of the end of times, citing the biblical passage about the seven trumpets. Others point towards possible extraterrestrial visitation. Scientists are trying to discover the source of these strange tones. While they have many theories there is still no explanation of what exactly is happening. Baffled experts hypothesize an origin could be any of the following:

1. Tectonic Shifts- Grinding plates within the Earth’s crust & mantel.
2. Radio Emissions- A frequency created by radio waves which are used to transmit or receive messages. 
3. Atmospheric Pressure- Also known as barometric pressure; the force resulted by the weight of the air. 
4. Human Interference- Industrial activities ranging from construction to trains or even usage of wireless communication devices. 

One thing in particular seems to be the most perplexing: if the origin of these sounds are a naturally occurring phenomenon then why are we only recently experiencing this anomaly? Humankind has had widely accessible recording capabilities since the early 1980s. It was only nine years ago that someone finally captured these events. Since planetary occurrences such as earthquakes have always impacted Earth, that rules out many of the many scientific explanations. Perhaps what is happening is the result of a new type of advanced military technology. Or maybe we are experiencing something even bigger that society as a whole has not yet come to grasp.
