Revisiting: Unexplainably Strange (3 of 3)

Copyright © Mark R Kelly 2026

Out of all my choices for revisiting a post from the Life in the Blogoverse incarnation, this particular one stood out by a mile—particularly due to the 600+ views it received at the time of posting. To be honest, though, these events still creep me out, and to this day I have no way of explaining them away.

I still walk the route on a daily basis with our dogs, Chica and Aldo. Chica is still the nervous, alert-to-every-little-thing dog. Nothing escapes her senses—her hearing being so sharp she’ll alert me to approaching people minutes before I see them, whether on foot or riding a bicycle.

As a result, I’ve become a more observant dog walker, always paying attention to the behaviour and attitude of both dogs—especially Chica, my four-legged “early warning system”.

We’re now moving into the midpoint of January, and I can honestly say I’m looking forward to the arrival of Spring and the lighter mornings and evenings it’ll bring. The downside, of course, is that I’ll also be another year older—but you can’t have everything.

So, my final presentation to you for revisiting, number three of three: Unexplainably Strange.

In keeping with the strangeness, I leave you with 'A Nightmare On Elm Street: Freddy's Theme' (version One).
