I am a huge fan of Nessie and I love watching for her on the Loch Ness cam regularly. Well, I just came across this strange story today and thought I would share it with you. Kinda interesting and kinda weird too, but you can bet after reading the article below, I'll be watching on that day for sure. Here is the link for Nessie's webcam if you'd like to take a peek yourself! http://www.lochness.scotland.net/webcamuw.htm[/URL]

White Witch Will Attempt To Raise Loch Ness Monster Sept. 2

HASTINGS, England (Wireless Flash) -- The world may learn once and for all whether the Loch Ness Monster really exists on September 2.
A self-proclaimed "white witch high priest" from Hastings, England, plans to visit the Scottish lake on that day and perform a ritual he claims will raise Nessie from her watery hide-out.

Kevin Carlyon believes the legendary creature is really a ghost, and says he'll be summoning her spirit for onlookers with a one-hour-long spell.

The whole event will be webcast for posterity at Nessie On The Net, a webcam that can be viewed at lochness.co.uk.

He's confident his spell will work, but admits, "If Nessie does pop up and flip her tail at the crowd, you'd probably have half the Scottish Highlands sh*tting themselves."

I never would have thought of it myself, but it stands to reason that Nessie could be a ghost! It does make sense.

That's very interesting. It would be a landmark act for both the study of strange creatures(sorry I forgot the word for it) and for witchcraft.
Actually it may start a rash of anti-witchcraft actions.
I wish him the best of luck.

I tend to believe in the explaination that when there is a water temp change in the lock waves are created that look like rolling lumps. They appear dark. They have proved this theory and that it can and does happen in water as deep as Lock Ness. This would explain a lot of the sightings of humps being seen in the water. But this also doesn't disprove that something doesn't inhabit the lake though. Whether it is there all the time, it's a ghost, or my favorite theory that time displacements occur due to magnetic and gravitational fluxes bringing something from the past (or maybe future) to this time and then back again. Which would explain a lot of the sightings people see and no one can ever find proof.
Good luck Mr. Carlyon.

Interesting time displacement theory! I wonder if Nessie is brought forward in time, or the witnesses are brought backward in time, or maybe it's a combination. Is there a temporal flux meter?

Nakis,

Wow I'd never heard that theory before, but it sure would explain a lot of things now wouldn't it!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on my beloved Nessie

Cindy

Will they be showing this take place on the surface cam, I wonder? I checked it today and it was just black - total blackness.

Kell

Kellie, I'm glad you asked me that because the link I put down is my favorite one, but not the one that will broadcast the witch trying to raise Nessie. Here is the link for that site.

Yeah both of these sites do have their days when the screen is black, but most of the time you'll have no problem viewing the cameras. Check them out sometime. They are pretty addicting!

Cindy

Thanks, Cindy!

Oooh! That's today! I'm off to look... if I haven't already missed it.

If anyone sees anything, let us know!

Does anyone know what happened????

I've gotten to the point to not trust US news agencies to report anything that the government and big business don't want reported.

I don't know. When I wet to look the other day, the cam was all black.

I did find this though - just not altogether sure what's going on - I didn't read all of it. Maybe Cindy will know.

Hmm... that's strange. That article says he went there to protect Nessie from capture. Not raise the girl. I wonder witch one is true ( ).

I was wondering that too! Although, I believe I saw a link for the same title as the article Cindy posted - or at least something very similar - on the site previously what I checked the page out. But I don't think it I saw it this last time - it was the 'battle of the witches' (one wanted o raise her, oned wanted to prevent him)- as you saw.

Kell

I am going to be a naughty here....but maybe the spells and things won't work because Nessie is thought to be very old....so she may only understands Galic.....

That must be it!!!
