Stigmata of Father Bruse



The Stigmata of Father Bruse – USA



The stigmata is a worldwide phenomenon, but it appears to be one almost exclusively within people of the Catholic Faith.
The USA is home to many wonders, fascinating beasts and oddities. One would expect to find more supernatural religious-related paranormal phenomenon happening in the country, but oddly, it seems to have a distinct lack of it.

There is however one very fascinating case, that of Father Bruse, who from 1991 to 1993 carried the wounds of the Stigmata on his body, but in an oddity not seen elsewhere, his blessing carried further than his own body, and affected statues around him too.

In a very well documented case, statues began to weep blood in the St Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church, crucifixes and pictures wept in his presence too.
The main statues that wept were always ones featuring The Blessed Virgin Mary, there were also reports of the facial expressions of the statues changing, statues changing colour, rosary's changing colour, the fragrance of roses filling the Church and many other supernatural occurrences.
Amidst all this Father Bruse's body was showing the signs of the stigmata, he was also conducting healings and blessings on mass, but strangely, the Archdiocese of Arlington decided to play down the weeping statues and marked Priest, and warded media and the throng of sight-seeing parishioners off.
The Church has not recognised the events of those two years officially, which isn't so unusual in the United States when one considers it took the Catholic Hierarchy of the country 150 years to recognise, officially, a sighting of the Virgin Mary.

Father Bruse has since been moved onto a different Church and currently presides as Parish Priest over two Churches. It is said things still happen around him, like rosaries changing colour, and that in his presence one can feel the holiness of the man.
In a recent interview Father Bruse was quoted as saying:

"Something is getting ready to happen. The Lord is just making us aware that He is there and He is real."
"I see that as something getting ready to happen. I think it's a major wake-up call that's going on, and I think that all that I see -- the weird temperature, the polar caps, the earthquakes -- there's a lot going on and I think we should all be prepared. I really do. I've had a lot more come back to church and Confession. I think it's all different than a few years back. I think we're in a different era now."
"We don't have to worry about what's beyond death, We know. It's total love. Christ is the real power behind all these phenomena. Christ is preparing us for the Kingdom of God, saying 'be prepared,' but shouting it out now. It's as if Christ is saying 'wake up! Let's get moving on our spirituality.' I believe it's building up to something big."

“Eat him if you want!” The Murder of Alain de Money's


“Eat him if you want!”The Murder of Alain de Money's

France was losing the war with Prussia in 1870, Emperor Napoleon II had just been captured and his regime overthrown by a self-proclaimed government for National Defence. The walls of social order were crumbling in on themselves, and a young aristocrat was about to become one of the focal points of Frances most gruesome acts.

Hautefaye, in southwestern France, was the setting for the grisly act of violence that will forever stain the area.

With the war not going well, a long-lasting drought, and hate for nobility, the illiterate peasants of Hautefaye were a resentful bunch and didn't like the fact that they had to get their news about the war from Noblemen.
At a rural fair (of sorts) outside the town, more than 200 peasants had gathered to trade, Alain de Money had brought the news of the war not tiding well for France, the peasants didn't take it so well and grew unruly.

The Vicomte Camille Maillard Lafaye, some of the Mayor of a nearby town, was present at the trading grounds, he and his party were attacked by the unruly mob, and fled for their lives. The crowd, now heated, bearing pitchforks, cudgels and whatever weapons they could brandish now turned their anger turned towards Alain.

Alain was accused of being a Prussian spy, of financing a war against France, or treason and any other crime the mob could think up. The Parish priest tried to intervene between the mob and Alain, but he soon realised that he was well overpowered, and left for sanctuary in his Church.
The Mayor, who was unsure of what to tell the drunken mob to stop the brutal attack about to ensue, added more flames to fire by shouting “Eat him if you want!”

For the next two hours Alain was tortured by more than 200 people in the mob, some as young as 14 years old. He was stabbed with pitchforks, sliced with hooks, whipped, kicked, punched and bludgeoned before it was decided to tie him to a blacksmiths workbench, where he was beaten from behind with a hook.
He had horseshoes nailed to his feet and one of his eyeballs was burst from its socket, after this ordeal it was decided to burn him.

A large pile of grass and wood was made and Alain's body was thrown on top, a young child lit the bonfire, and the crowd continued to whip, punch and bludgeon Alain even as he burnt in front of them. Some of the people are said to have collected the fat melting from his burning body, and collect it on bread, eating it as they watched.


 Some of the men did not escape punishment for their crimes against Alain De Money's, fifty people were arrested, ranging in age from 14 to 60. 19  of the people were convicted, one to spend life in jail, the rest got 6 to 8 years hard labour and four men, considered the ringleaders were sentenced to death by guillotine.

The Stigmata of Marie Rose Ferron




The Stigmata of Marie Rose Ferron





Born in St Germain de Grantham, Quebec, Canada, Marie Ferron, also known as “Little Rose”, was born into a large family, the tenth child of a brood of fifteen children. She was born on the 24th of May 1902, four years later, in 1906, the family pulled up its roots and moved south to Fall River in Massachusetts, U.S.A.
Moving again in 1925, “Little Rose” now found herself living in Rhode Island, where the family settled and Marie spent the rest of her lifetime.

It was noted, that even in younger years, Marie was a particularly pious young lady, listening intently during Mass, and staying in her seat afterwards to reflect on what she had just heard, rather than run out to play with the other children.


An unfortunate event occurred to Marie in her teenage years, She was carrying dinner to her father on a spring day, the snow was beginning to melt and the ground was a slushy mess, Marie became seriously sick, and the result was a paralysed hand and foot, oddly, two years later after receiving some holy water, her hand mysteriously healed itself, yet her foot didn’t, and she spent the next twelve years using crutches to get around.

Marie suffered incredibly mental anguish because of her condition, she couldn't go out and play with other children, nor could she go to be schooled due to her illness, it played very deeply on her mind and washed a sadness over her. She writes of it in her letters of her inability to attend schooling:


"I felt as if I were blind, groping in the dark," she said. "I had nothing to look forward to, no hope of bettering my condition. I beheld my ignorance ever before my eyes, and that discouraged me more than my infirmities. Time, that softens everything, even sufferings, increased my own: they broke my heart."

At Six years old Marie had her first vision of Christ, she saw him clearly with a cross, and stated he had a sadness in his eyes.
When she was seven, Jesus taught her a prayer in French, of which she spoke daily until her death

"Lord Jesus, when I reflect upon the words You have uttered, 'Many are called, but few are chosen, I begin to tremble for those I love, and I beg You to look upon them with mercy: and behold, with infinite tenderness, You place their salvation in my hands, as it were; for everything is promised to him who knows how to suffer with You and for You.
"My heart bleeds under the weight of affliction, but my will remains united to Yours, and I cry out to You: 'Lord, it is for them that I want to suffer!' I want to mingle my tears with Your Blood for the salvation of those I love! You will not turn a deaf ear to my cry of sorrow and You will save them."

During Lent of 1927, Marie suffered the weight of the whole Stigmata, unlike almost all stigmatic's before and after her, she bore the hand and feet wounds, the wound in her side, the crown of thorns, and the bleeding eyes as well as the cat-o-nine tails scourging marks from when Jesus was whipped, these appeared across Marie's arm.
The wounds began to appear on a regular basis, every Friday.

In front of the eyes of witnesses, her biographer and a Priest, the wounds in hands appeared, and blood streamed from them, not a steady flow like one would expect, but a rushing gorge of blood, Marie said at the time that it felt like her hands were being torn in two.

A priest who examined the wounds wrote:

"The blood gave a sweet-smelling odour unknown to me, somewhat like a perfume; my hands became saturated with it...It was not a transitory smell since the odour persisted until the following morning."

In 1929, poor Marie’s Stigmata became even worse, when she began to suffer the Stigmata of the heart, the pain of the spear of Longinus, piercing through her side, and into her heart, just as Jesus would have suffered.


Marie Rose Ferron lived to the age of 33, the same age of which Jesus died. Marie became blind, and before her death, the pain in her head so tremendous, that any noise that was a little loud in her vicinity would cause her too faint, on her last day alive, her hearing and sight failed also



Marie was clothed in a habit from the religious foundation she had founded, under direction from God, knows a “The Sisters of Reparation of the Sacred Wounds of Jesus” and presented in the Church before burial, nearly fifteen thousand people signed the guest book.

Paranormal Investigators: Past & Present: Dr Claude Swanson





Dr Claude V. Swanson PhD.

Dr Swanson is a Princeton University and MIT educated physicist. He has earned fellowships at Princeton, the “National Science Foundation” and “Putnam Fellowships”, and also conducted post-graduate work at Princeton and Cornell Universities where he worked on the design of superconducting plasma containment vessels for fusion energy systems.
Dr Swanson also started his own consulting business that conducted studied in applied physics for commercial companies and government agencies, including The U.S. Army and Navy and the CIA.

For some time now, alongside his “conventional physics” studies, Dr Swanson has also delved into the world of unconventional physics, mainly the unified field theory, or the “Theory of Everything” which aims to explain the universe's existence at its deepest levels. Through this study, Dr Swanson has studied paranormal phenomena's that appear to be real, but stand outside our present understanding of science and consciousness.
Through his studies, he has found evidence that signals can move faster than light, that human consciousness and influence can move backward and forward in time and that levitation and teleportation are a distinct possibility.

He has also collected evidence that proves that out-of-body and Near-death experiences show that alternate realities and dimensions do in fact exist and that human consciousness does indeed outlive the body and continues on.



Dr Swanson has investigated haunted house's, underwater archaeology, Qigong, remote viewing, psychokinesis and other paranormal occurrences, and is developing devices that will help measure the forces behind these phenomena, and hopefully explain how they work.
Dr Swanson has many books available on the different topics he has researched, one of the latest being “Life Force: The Scientific Basis”, a sequel to his earlier book “The Synchronised Universe”, which explores a wide range of human abilities and physical phenomena and how these energies can be utilised by current science to expand our knowledge of how the Universe and our world around us works.
When many minds act collectively, in unison, it does indeed affect space, time and physics in a surprising and remarkable way.  This effect has been demonstrated in the work of Dr Dean Radin of the Noetic Society, Dr Roger Nelson of Princeton University, and Professor Bierman of the University of Amsterdam. These researchers have discovered that when many minds focus on the same thought, the quantum randomness of the Universe is reduced.” - Dr Claude Swanson

Stigmata: Natuzza Evolo


The Stigmata of Natuzza Evolo


Studied by doctors, scientists and the Catholic clergy, the stigmata of Natuzza Evolo has fascinated investigators for many years.
 Natuzza not only has stigmata, but her blood and sweat have been seen to deliver another supernatural phenomenon, that of Hemography. Hemography is the belief that the blood, sweat and tears of stigmatic people can create religious symbols and words upon cloth or clothing


Natuzza was born in Paravati, Italy, before she was born her father fled to Argentina, and was never heard of again, Her Mother, Maria, had to take on many different jobs to feed and house her family, and as soon as Natuzza was of age, she too had to work, because of this, she was never schooled and never learnt to read and write.

It is said, even at this early age, Natuzza had visions of Lord Jesus and of Our Lady, The Virgin Mary.
In 1944 she met and married Pasquale Nicole, and together they had five children.

A book has been written about the life of Natuzza by Professor Valerio Marinelli, in the book her early life is recorded, as are her visions, and a lot of interviews are conducted with people who honestly believe they were healed by Natuzza after she prayed for them.

Natuzza became famous after blood coloured images and words appeared on her body around Easter, some of the words were found to be Hebrew and Aramaic, both languages far from the understanding of this humble uneducated Italian woman.
Natuzza felt incredible physical pain when the images and words would appear,  which no drug could relieve either pain. 

For decades after her stigmata were revealed, pilgrims would descend on Calabria, at the southern tip of Italy, and ask her for advice and prayers, offers of hope, and intercession for the souls of their dead relatives.

In May 1987, with permission of Monsignor Domenico Cortese, the Bishop of Mileto-Nicotera-Tropea, Natuzza founded an association named "Fondazione Cuore Immacolato di Maria Rifugio Delle Anime" ("Immaculate Heart of Mary, Refuge of Souls Foundation.") The Foundation was later formally approved by the Bishop. 

Natuzza died on Sunday the first of November 2009 of Renal failure, Church Bells rang out at her death (allowed by the Parish Priest) and thousands of Catholics came to pay their respects, from this a cult has risen and it is expected the beatification process will begin very soon.

The Stigmata: Father Zlatko Sudac


The Stigmata of Zlatko Sudac


Father Sudac is a Catholic Priest in Yugoslavia from the town of Vrbnik on Krk Island, Croatia. He began studying for the priesthood in 1993 after finishing a term of service, which is mandatory, in the Yugoslavian Army.

On the 29th of June 1998, Sudac was ordained as a Catholic Priest. Father Sudac currently involves himself in religious seminars and retreats in his home country, which bring in large crowds due to his Stigmata. Father Sudac's stigmata appear on his hands, side and feet, as one would expect, but also as a cross on his forehead.
It is said as he paints, his fingertips bleed, as does his Stigmata.

There has been a growing cult around Father Sudac, with one Clergyman claiming “ There isn’t a Church in the World that can hold Sudac”, meaning that large numbers of parishioners are coming to see the miracle of the stigmata for themselves, and hope to be blessed by the young priest.

With great fame also comes great scrutiny, and Sudac is finding that many people, sceptical people, are not believing his stigmata is real, so at the same time as thousands flocking to see him, a small number, of louder voiced, opinionated people, are there to mock and prove him to be a fake.

Interestingly, Sudac often does not appear with the Stigmata whilst delivering Mass, this, of course, adds more weight in the mind of the sceptics, but for the true believers, they have faith that this priest is telling the truth, that Jesus himself has bestowed this gift upon him, and for them, seeing isn’t believing, faith for them is enough.

Sudac is still alive and well in Croatia. He still delivers Mass as required by duty, and attracts large throngs of worshippers who come to witness his Stigmata and other holy gifts. In time we could well witness him become a Saint.

The Hanging of Two Innocent Aboriginal Men in Victoria.




Bob & Jack

In 1842 two Aboriginal men said to be from Tasmania, were found guilty of killing two white whalers in Cape Patterson, Victoria.
The two men, known as Bob and Jack, were not allowed to give evidence in their own defence, or to call forward Aboriginal witness's, they were consequently found guilty by the white settlers jury, and sentenced to be hung at Gallows Hill.
Gallows Hill, stood outside the Old Melbourne Gaol, the gallows were two large wooden poles buried in the ground with a plank between them, and two pieces of wood, attached to the poles with hinges, for the prisoners to stand on, under the other unhinged end of the planks stood a pile of rubble, which kicked over, would release the planks and hang the prisoners.
On this occasion, the rubble did not fall far enough, and the two men hung, choking until an onlooker realised the problem and kicked the rest of the rubble out of the way, allowing the men to die.
Bob and Jack were removed from the gallows and their bodies were taken to the Melbourne cemetery, they were not allowed proper Aboriginal Rites nor Burial. The two men were buried in the northernmost section of the cemetery.
Today, Queen Victoria Market sits atop the old cemetery where it is believed hundreds, possibly thousands of people had been buried, Bob and Jack have been seen upon occasion in the Market and also are known to cause all kinds of mischief, no doubt they are restless due to not receiving their proper burial rites and the possibility of a miscarriage of justice from the white men jury.
