Unit 731 This secret chemical and biological warfare
research and development unit committed some of the most ferocious and notorious acts by
the Imperial Japanese, when they were based in Northeast China.
Officially, Unit 731 was called the Epidemic Prevention and Water Purification Department
which then adopted the name "Unit 731" in the year 1941.
600 men, women, and children of Chinese, Korean, Mongolian, and Soviet descent, as well as
Allied POWs, were passed onto the unit - amounting to at least 3,000 in total.
These people were experimented on at the camp.
They were called "logs" as a staff joke, because the facility's cover was that it
was a lumber mill.
Organs were removed and studied, limbs were amputated, and these people were injected
with diseases to examine their effects.
The unit also infected fleas with the plague and dropped these, along with infected supplies
and clothing.
This is estimated to have taken the lives upwards of 400,000 Chinese civilians.
This barely scratches the surface of the horrendous things that Unit 731 did.
The unit was the Heart of Darkness made manifest.
If you're willing to look into that darkness, don't say I didn't warn you.

The Goiania Accident.
This one's radioactive.
The Goiânia accident occurred in Brazil in 1987, and a look into the unfortunate event's
Wikipedia page will have you wondering if it could happen again.
And it can, anywhere at anytime.
What happened was there was a radiotherapy source - specifically, a tele therapy radiation
capsule - at an abandoned hospital that was handled by a number of people.
Four of these people passed, and 249 more suffered high levels of radioactive materiel
in their bodies.
Called "one of the world's worst nuclear disasters" by Time magazine, multiple houses
had to be demolished, and the topsoil removed from sites, due to the incident.

Genie This is one of the most vicious cases of wrongdoing
by a young girl's own father on record.
Genie was born in America in 1957.
Her father decided when she was only a baby that she was mentally disabled.
As she grew older, he started withholding attention and care, and his dislike of Genie
led to her nearly complete social isolation by the age of twenty months.
From that age to thirteen and a half years old, she was kept locked in her room, her
arms and legs nearly always immobilized, secured to a crib or a child's toilet.
No one was allowed to communicate with Genie, she wasn't given any form of stimulation
or entertainment, and she was severely malnourished.
Due to her isolation, Genie could not communicate, having been exposed to so little language.
And it wasn't until 1970 that the Los Angeles child welfare authorities were made aware
of her situation.
Once Genie was removed from her home, linguists, psychologists, and other scientists began
examining her unique case, specifically her human development.
It took only months for her to communicate nonverbally and develop basic social skills.
However, when the case study was finalized, she still had traits of an unsocialized person
and could not acquire a first language, thus suggesting that there are critical points
in which language can be acquired during the normal processes of human development.
In 1978, Genie's mother stepped in and disallowed further testing of her daughter.
At this point, it's thought that Genie was thereafter cared for by the state of California,
but nothing further is factually known about her living arrangement.
We can only hope that Genie was at last allowed to live in peace.

Capgras Delusion Imagine: you walk into your kitchen one morning.
Your husband is cooking breakfast.
But when he turns to you, and you look in his eyes, suddenly you feel that this isn't
your husband at all, but an imposter, just pretending.
This psychiatric disorder involves a delusion in which someone feels an identical impostor
has replaced their parent, family member, friend, spouse, or even their pet.
Classified as a delusional misidentification syndrome, Capgras delusion can be transient,
acute, or chronic and can also involve a feeling of time warp or substitution.
Paranoid schizophrenia is often involved, but dementia and brain injury can also be
a contributing factor.
Have you ever thought your loved one was an imposter?

Roch Thériault Cults are always creepy, but this one is particularly
heinous.
Canadian cult leader, Roch Thériault, was the head of a religious group from 1977 to
1989 called the Ant Hill Kids.
Calling himself the prophet Moise, Theriault's cult followed upon Seventh-day Adventist Church
beliefs.
He sold the commune as a place where people could go to be motivated and live free from
sin, in unity and harmony.
Of course, with such freedom comes a lot of restrictions, one of them being that members
were not allowed to keep in contact with their families.
There was also a doomsday element to the Ant Hill Kids, as Thériault claimed the end would
come in February 1979, which, in fact, it didn't.
As within many cults, Thériault established that he could have multiple wives, and all
female members were required to have a child with him.
26 children later, they and his followers were under Theriault's totalitarian rule
at his commune.
Anyone who considered leaving the commune or who did not obey his rules faced increasingly
worse punishment, which started with plucking all the hairs on the person's body and ended
with forcing followers to break their own legs with sledgehammers.
After finally taking the life one member, Solange Boilard, while attempting to demonstrate
his "healing powers" after she complained of a stomachache, Thériault was arrested
and sentenced to life behind bars.

Some of the actions this cult leader committed are beyond appalling.

Mike the Headless Chicken Ever heard the phrase "running around like
a chicken with its head cut off"?
If so, it probably made you cringe once you thought it through.
If it did, jump over to Mike the Headless Chicken's Wikipedia page, and you'll be
doing more than cringing.
This chicken had its head cut off and lived on not just for minutes, but for 18 months
after.
When the story first came out in 1945, many believed it to be a hoax.
But Mike's owner, Lloyd Olsen of Colorado, took the headless chicken to the University
of Utah to have his story verified.
As it would turn out, the chicken was still living because, when Olsen had gone to chop
off his head, he'd missed the jugular vein, leaving a majority of the brain stem intact.
The botched act made it so that the chicken could still perch, attempt to peck for food,
and even crow…which is said to have sounded more like gurgling than an actual crow.
Mike became a sensation, and he was soon taken on tour to be part of a sideshow act, earning
Olsen $4,500 a month, which is $49,300 in today's money during the height of the chicken's
popularity.
Sadly, Mike's headless life was cut short when he passed away from choking on a piece
of corn in the middle of the night.
His legacy lives on, however, in Fruita, Colorado, where "Mike the Headless Chicken Day"
is celebrated each year in May.
Just don't think about it too much, or you'll be having nightmares about it tonight.

Gold Base This is the international headquarters of
the Church of Scientology.
Located in Riverside County, California, around 100 miles from Los Angeles, the compound is
confidential and heavily guarded by patrols 24/7, high fences with razor wire and "Ultra
Barrier" spikes at the top, motion detectors and cameras.
The Church also closely monitors passing traffic along the public road nearby.
So, what is going on inside of the nearly fifty-building compound that requires such
heavy security and secrecy?
The Church acquired the property in 1978 with cash, under the alias "Scottish Highland
Quietude Club."
Senior church officials, as well as the Church's leader and the elite inner circle of around
1,000 members known as the Sea Org, live on site, and many prominent Scientologists have
studied at Gold Base, including Tom Cruise.
As luxurious as this compound sounds, staff conditions are said to be terrible.
Pay is $50 for a 100-hour work week, and punishments are dealt to those who don't fulfill work
quotas.
The lake was reportedly used for punishment on various occasions in the 2000s.
One of those punishments involved being pushed into the freezing cold water at night, while
the leader looked on.
According to reports, mistreated members of staff - up to 100 annually - make an attempt
at escaping from Gold Base.
They are inevitably captured and brought back to base by "pursuit teams."
If this summary on the fearful place known as Gold Base isn't enough for you, click
on through to the Wikipedia page.
There's plenty more where this comes from.

Stone Man Syndrome This entry might give you flashbacks of greyscale
turning Jorah Mormont of Game of Thrones into a stone man, but in reality stone man syndrome
is much scarier even than fiction.
It's a rare connective tissue disease, in which damaged fibrous tissue - like muscles,
ligaments, and tendons - becomes ossified and permanently freeze joints in place when
injured.
This syndrome occurs when the repair mechanism of the body has mutated.
Sometimes joints are affected in such a way that the patient cannot open or close the
mouth completely to eat or talk.
Breathing complications can also occur as a result of extra bone formation surrounding
the rib cage, which presses the diaphragm and lungs.
If you can imagine not being able to move certain parts of your body or breathe easy,
you probably have some idea of what it feels like to suffer from this syndrome.

June and Jennifer Gibbons These identical twins were born in 1963 in
Barbados and raised in Wales, known as the "Silent Twins."
The pair only talked to each other and rarely left each other's side.
They were bullied and ostracized in school.
As they became socially isolated, their language became almost unintelligible to others, and
they often mirrored each other's actions as they spoke.
By 14, they only spoke to each other and their younger sister.
A series of therapists attempted to encourage them to be more social by sending them to
separate boarding schools.
But this only made them more isolated, as they each withdrew completely when on their
own.
Once reunited, the girls wrote fiction together and put on plays with their dolls.
Their stories often involved characters who exhibited criminality.
Their interest in this may have been inspiration, as their later actions included arson.
They were eventually sent to a mental hospital called Broadmoor for fourteen years.
Although they continued to be mute to the world, the girls shared a pact that if one
of them passed, the one left to live would have to speak and live normally.
While still in Broadmoor, they decided that one of them must passed away, and Jennifer
offered to so that June could live normally.
She did, in fact, pass away of inflammation of the heart during a move to another facility.
But the cause of this inflammation is still unknown.
A few days after Jennifer had passed, June stated: "I'm free at last, liberated, and
at last Jennifer has given up her life for me."
Did she give up her life?
Or was her life taken?
Some speculate whether June may have set herself free.
But that's entirely speculation.

Rat King This is not what it sounds like.
It's not a single rat, so large and powerful it became king.
It's a group of intertwined rats that have somehow gotten stuck together.
Somehow, the rat collective's tails become intertwined, and they are stuck together sometimes
by sap, gum, or by something that entangles them, like hair.
How many rats constitute a "rat king"?
The number can be anywhere from three to upwards of 32.
For some reason, Germany has seen this phenomenon more so than anywhere else, but it is a rare
occurrence.
And rats aren't the only rodents this strangeness happens to.
Squirrels and forest mice have also been known to king up…but, in my opinion, the thought
of that is distinctly not as gross as rats.
5.
Dancing Mania So you think you can dance?
Don't start or you may not be able to stop.
This social phenomenon occurred between the 14th and 17th centuries in mainland Europe,
where erratic dancing, sometimes involving thousands of people at once, resulted in many
collapsing from exhaustion.
Also known as the dancing plague or St Vitus's Dance, this mania isn't simply an all-night
rager; rather, it's an outbreak that spreads quickly.
The first major one happened in 1374 in the Holy Roman Empire and others have been noted
throughout the centuries ever since.
The cause of dancing mania is unknown, but some believe it was simply mass hysteria,
which is when social influence causes physical symptoms with no known cause.
Other theories range from religious cults instituting the mania to the period's poverty
resulting in spontaneous dancing to relieve stress.
Whatever the cause was in the past, nowadays we just call it the fun pastime of a flashmob.

Lori Erica Ruff This one will send you down an internet rabbit
hole.
After a failed marriage, Lori Erica Ruff took her own life on Christmas Eve 2010 at her
father-in-law's house.
It was only then that her in-laws discovered that Ruff was not who she seemed.
Lori Erica Ruff was not even her real name; rather it was an alias.
In fact, it was one of at least two alias' she had adopted in her lifetime.
Her secret was discovered after her passing, when her in-laws decided to take it upon themselves
to dig into Ruff's mysterious past.
They found her house a complete mess, with laundry, trash and dishes piled up all over
the place, and documents and papers shredded, some with meaningless messages written.
That's when they came upon a lockbox hidden in a closet.
After prying it open with a screwdriver, they found more odd scribblings inside, along with
a birth certificate for Becky Sue Turner, as well as a change-of-name ruling, legally
allowing someone called "Turner" to change her name to Lori Erica Kennedy.
Things got even weirder when investigators found that Turner had passed away at two years
old in a house fire.
Still, Lori's birth name remained a mystery, as further scribblings turned up nothing.
Even after they sought the help of an investigator for the Social Security Administration, the
woman's identity was not recovered.
Theories of who she was could be found far and wide all over the internet.
It wasn't until 2013 that Colleen Fitzpatrick, a former NASA contractor and forensic genealogist,
took up the case by tracing her genetic genealogy.
She was eventually led to believe the woman was Kimberly McLean, an identity thief, who
became Becky Sue Turner through obtaining the birth certificate of the child who'd
passed away in the fire, and then moved and changed her name to Lori Erica Kennedy.
Why she did all this, we may never know.
But, again, as you could probably guess, the internet has some theories.

Human Experimentation in the United States This particular page lists a number of unethical
experiments enacted on test subjects in the US.
Why are they considered unethical?
Well, in many of these cases, they were performed without the subjects' consent or knowledge
and often illegally.
Who were the subjects?
Often minorities, the poor, the incarcerated, the sick, the mentally disabled, and even
children.
What kind of tests were performed?
Human radiation and surgical experiments, experiments to test out interrogation techniques,
exposure to biological and chemical experiments, such as diseases leading to loss of life,
experiments to test mind-altering substances, and many more.
Who ran these tests?
Often funds came from the US government.
You heard that correctly.
The CIA, the US military, and private corporations tied to the military were the primary funders.
The experiments they performed in detail are certainly a disturbing read.
2.
Fatal Insomnia This one will keep you up at night.
Literally.
Usually inherited, fatal insomnia is a rare sleep disorder found in only about forty families
globally and with just a hundred people diagnosed.
After the disease's onset, this form of insomnia could lead to the end of your life
within a few months to a few years, with the average survival rate of being 18 months.
As the title would suggest, insomnia is the primary symptom, but dementia, speech and
physical coordination issues can also result from this form.
The four stages of this form of insomnia include stage one that lasts around four months and
entails progressive insomnia with an increase in panic attacks, phobias, and paranoia.
Stage two that lasts for about five months includes noticeable panic attacks and hallucinations.
Stage three lasts around three months and includes total insomnia, no sleep, and rapid
weight loss.
And stage four may last six months or more, during which the individual grows mute and
unresponsive, dementia sets in, and then passing on.
If you're having trouble sleeping, don't search it up on Wikipedia, or you may just
be its next victim.

List of Unusual This list of unusual passing is more entertaining
than scary, but in reading it, you may start to fear that there are so many more ways to
pass away than you'd previously thought.
Let the horror begin.
The list includes rare, unique, and, yes, unusual cases of people passing away - unusual
being, as the Wikipedia article notes, "not habitually or commonly occurring or done"
and "remarkable or interesting because different from or better than others," as defined
by Oxford Dictionary.
It includes such examples as Draco, an Athenian lawmaker, in 620 BC who was smothered by gifts
of hats and cloaks by grateful citizens and passed away.
Or Martin of Aragon who, in 1410, passed away of laughter.
Well, not just laughter, but rather a combination of belly laughing and indigestion from eating
a whole goose.
The joke, you might ask?
When asked where he'd been, the king's jester replied: "Out of the next vineyard,
where I saw a young deer hanging by his tail from a tree, as if someone had so punished
him for stealing figs."
Maybe it was funnier back then.
This list certainly isn't though.
