Log of Extranormal Events, Vol. 1.2.
.
Event Location: Bonifay, Florida, USA.
Date: ██/██/19██
Description: During a speech to a public committee, the mayor of Bonifay, FL began continuously chuckling at a pun made by a legislative observer for approximately 4.5 hours straight before collapsing into a nearby chair and passing out. He claims to have no memory of the event, nor did anyone else in the room during the speech. The only available evidence of its occurrence was captured entirely on camera.
Follow-up Actions Taken: Any and all witnesses who videotaped the event, along with anyone who viewed the videotapes themselves, were given Class-B amnestics, and all resulting videotapes were wiped clean. The mayor himself is under minor surveillance from select members of the Foundation.

Event Location: Muttontown, New York, USA.
Date: 2/15/201█
Description: After Long Island citizen ███████ ██████ died of alcohol-related illness, a recliner chair in his home began ascending at speeds of exactly 3.6 m/s before eventually accelerating to 16.3 m/s. Attempts at stopping the ascent were futile, and the chair broke through any barriers placed in its way. It has since then left the atmosphere and is believed to be orbiting Jupiter.
Follow-up Actions Taken: Any footage of the incident was wiped and pulled off the internet. Class-A amnestics were given to witnesses. Foundation operatives in various space programs are advised to destroy any information of the chair if found.
.
Event Location: Akaroa, New Zealand.
Date: ██/18/████
Description: Six sperm whale carcasses were found beached along a 2 km stretch of coastline at ████████, New Zealand. When autopsy was performed as part of a civilian research program, it was discovered that the chest cavity of all six whales had been hollowed out postmortem without any damage being done to the exterior of the animals. Exploration of the interior carcass revealed the chest cavity of each whale had somehow been stuffed with machinery components trapped in clear plastic.
Follow-up Actions Taken: Area sealed. All members of the research team detained and administered Class-A amnestics. False story disseminated claiming that the decomposition of the whales’ bodies had led to the build-up of toxic gas inside the carcasses, leading to government intervention on grounds of public health. Masses found inside body cavities removed and shipped to Storage Site-108. Remains incinerated in the field and disposed of through normal channels.

Event Location: Various hospitals throughout New Jersey, USA.
Date: ██/██/████
Description: Eighty-eight thousand, eight hundred eighty-eight citizens of the state of New Jersey fractured their left scaphoid bones within a two-hour period; radiography showed that all fractures were identical down to a sub-millimeter level.
Follow-up Actions Taken: Class-A amnestics administered to radiography technicians.
.
Event Location: Various televisions throughout the USA.
Date: ██/██/████
Description: Viewers of the popular late-night talk show ████ █████ ██ ███ █████ reported seeing two different episodes. Approximately 40% watched an episode featuring the famous actor █████ ███ and the musical guest ██ ██████, while the other 60% watched an episode with ██ ██████ with an appearance by stand-up comedian ████ ██. Neither one of these episodes was the one which had actually been broadcast, and neither one had ever been filmed.
Follow-up Actions Taken: All recordings of the anomalous episodes showed the actual broadcast episode in later viewings. Viewers’ memories of the anomalous episodes seem to have completely faded by themselves by ██/██/████. ███ channel officials who had been contacted about the episodes were administered Class-C amnestics and their internal investigation into the matter aborted. Social networks mentioning the matter were intercepted and edited.

Event Location: Cherbourg, France.

Event Location: Staten Island, New York, USA.
Date: ██/██/2014
Description: All written text in the Theater Department at ██████-██ University spontaneously converted to Wingdings. Digital text remained unaffected until printed out. All affected text contained the phrase “You don’t need a script to pretend to be someone else, you’re doing it right now! ( ・ω・)”

Date: ██/██/████
Description: Ten minutes before opening to the general public, three visit team staff and a security officer at ██████ Museum witnessed a Scutigera coleoptrata specimen, commonly known as a house centipede, emerge from a small drainage pipe in a storage closet. The specimen traveled approximately 1 m before entering a sink u-bend which had been opened for repairs. Specimen was estimated to be over 12 m in length, though of average width and height for its species. Specimen was visible for several minutes after the head portion had entered the u-bend, while the remainder of its body continued to exit the drainage pipe.

Event Location: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
Date: 3/21/2014 through 3/23/2014
Description: The Cincinnati metropolitan area and all objects and lifeforms in it became greyscale for approximately 77 hours, starting at approximately 10:00 AM. All humans in the metropolitan area when the change occurred were not aware of the existence of color while the effect persisted. Those who entered the area of effect after the change occurred were not affected, but affected individuals treated them with fear and suspicion. When the change was reverted through unknown means, all individuals within the affected area lost their memories of the event, although those who had left the area of effect before the restoration of color retained their memories.
Follow-up Actions Taken: Class A amnestics administered to individuals who retained memories of the event, and all records of the event destroyed.
