For discussion of everything rum and uncanny, from cryptozoology (mysterious or out-of-place animals), UFOs, high strangeness, etc. Following in the footsteps of Charles Fort and all those inspired by him, like the field of anomalistics.
As this community is on Feddit.uk it takes a British approach to things but it needn't be restricted to the UK - if it's weird and unusual it probably has a home here.

Ben Jordan on YouTube made a video not long ago about mystery hums and came up with a decent theory… pipelines. Something between the pressures and size of them. He explains it better than I can but I wonder how many cases this could be related to.
Years ago around Swanage and the surrounding areas there was low humming, I'm thinking early 2000's. It was speculated it was caused by oil drilling in the nearby area but nothing was ever confirmed. I seem to remember it popped up now and then in local newspapers. But again, nothing confirmed.
BP were operating in the local area at the time...
Slightly unrelated but the same speculated site, now operated be Perenco, had an oil leak quite recently into Poole harbour. I don't know if that was fixed fast but the news came and went very quicky. Nobody talks about it now. Perhaps it wasn't as bad as it was first thought. I don't know.
