“THE SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION OF MARY HARDY REESER” and More Horrifying True Stories! #WeirdDarkness

Five men went to a basketball game in 1978 and somehow ended up on a mountain road 70 miles in the wrong direction, where they abandoned their working car and vanished into the wilderness. When searchers found some of them months later, the evidence made even less sense than their disappearance… including finding the body of one man who died of starvation despite being surrounded by food.

Scientists say time travel requires bending space-time, manipulating gravity, or approaching light speed. The Bible says God did it with a word - and the evidence might surprise you. From boats that teleport instantly to shadows that run backward on sundials, the Bible contains documented cases of time manipulation that mirror modern quantum physics. In this message, we explore what happens when the Creator of time decides to break His own rules of space and time.

When a mother heard her own voice from five hours earlier coming through her baby monitor, she realized she was witnessing something that shouldn't be possible—a tear in time itself. What would you do if you walked into a movie theater and suddenly jumped three hours forward, or if your car transported 20 miles in an instant to escape a traffic stop? A Victorian man appears in 1950s Times Square, two women slip back to Marie Antoinette's era, and a father and son lose an entire day in five minutes. These people swear they've experienced time slips, dimensional rifts, and impossible jumps through time—and their stories might make you question reality itself.
