Cover up conspiracy in a Nebraska City Park...
Posted: Thu Jul 07, 2005 12:55 pm
I usually never send out reports of conspiracy theories as they come a dime a dozen these days, but I think this one is an exception. I’ve gotten too many pieces of a puzzle and they all fit to make an ugly picture. This may have conspiracy written all over it, but it’s also an issue that may need to be looked into by the society.
First off, the city park in reference is known as Hummel Park and is located on the northern outskirts of Omaha, Nebraska. From hearsay, rumors, blogs and online gossip it’s my understanding that the Park has always had a strange, macabre reputation and has been considered to be haunted for over a century now. Its said in the early 1900's, lynch mobs would ride through town and hang or otherwise mutilate any “believed” criminals that happened to be in sight, and their activities took place in Hummel Park. They hung so many people that the trees still bow over the main road leading to Hummel Park today. Even weirder is that young trees and even the grass lean toward the road outside the park and even from inside the park.
Reports of Apparitions, mists, Indian drums playing at night, wolves howling, even a supposed old Indian burial grounds is on sight. Also, I’ve read several reports of the “morphing stairs”. It is a long staircase that is roughly 200 stairs long. The word, “roughly” is used because every time you go up and or down it you will count a different number of stairs each time. The story is that if you walk up to the top and count the stairs going up, it will be less than the number of stairs going down, it has been referred to as the “stairway to hell” because of this.
There have also been reports of animal sacrificing and mutilations in the park. There are also stories of a cult of albinos that live in the park, as well as a maniac who wanders and lives in the park who lost his nose somehow (the urban legends range anywhere from his losing it in a car accident, others say he cut it off himself, etc). And this maniac is said to cut off anyone’s nose he comes in contact that laughs at his missing nose and keep them on a string around his neck. Point being there are a lot of legends about this park.
The newest story is what catches my attention the most however. This park seems to still have a fair amount of activity, from a nature day camp for children to regular visitors. The park is marred by the lack of modern design (no jogging trails, updated play grounds, or anything modern looking for that matter as its one of the oldest parks in the state) and the rumored gang activities that happen there. But the latest story seems to have interested parties trying to suppress it.
According to a source, Hummel park has a great hiking trail through some heavily wooded areas that look over a cliff to the before mentioned main street below. This is where the last story took place. The story has it two friends were hiking on this trail just this last spring, and making the most sense of the story, they were assaulted by what can be described as a “chameleon man”, the figure was “vaguely humanoid” and it used the woods for camouflage. During the struggle, one of the hikers was ”thrown” over the cliff (which is said to be a steep incline with about a 50-60 ft. drop), and the other was mauled to death.
But that’s only part of the story; the victim who was mauled was labeled as “being beaten to death by an unknown attacker” believed to be a gang member or a rabid deer. What even more interesting is that the police and the news have both neglected this story altogether, even with what I’m now reading to be several cases of this attacker being reported, and all describe the attacker in the same manner. None of the witnesses or surviving victims has come forward with more details about it either (in fact, it seems that they are doing so out of fear or repercussions), so I don’t have anything more than this at this time.
I did get one anonymous tip however; the tipper says that the Omaha and its neibor city Bellevue has had rumors of Secret Government activities since the Offutt Air Force Base was implemented. Even the power stations that run along the river that is government operated (the only government operated power company in the country I would note) are said to house government activities within them. This info would be useless if not for an interesting bit I got that mentioned that one of the power plants is almost literally right across the river from Hummel Park (Hummel Park is adjacent to Dodge park which has an Marina to the river, and the power plant is just across the river).
To the conspiracy theory folks, this is great fodder in that “something” could escape from a lab and find a home in the park! This can answer for all sorts of rumors from the animal mutilations blamed by the sacrifices to who knows what else. With the rumor mill in full churn here, I think an investigation is warranted, there is enough plausibility to make it worthwhile. If for nothing else, this chameleon man may be dwelling in the park is going unnoticed and ignore, if not protected and kept secret from various organizations. If nothing is done, who knows how many other victims could be assaulted or murdered by this thing?
