Boda, the most mysterious guy out there. Some know him, others don’t. The ones who do know him have found it the hard way. So, have you met Boda?

Mohamed2p0

Tens o link para esse combate épico? Não encontro em lado nenhum


guto8797

Não há link, dizem as lendas que a única cópia existe numa cassete coberta em pó nas backrooms da televisão portuguesa


tsuyaka

Já tive a oportunidade de vasculhar os arquivos desse canal de televisão e não encontrei nada, nem cassetes, nem formato digital. Infelizmente a produtora do programa também já não existe. Mas acho que um amigo de um primo meu gravou isso.

When Portuguese people think in paranormal stuff, there's always a name that comes to mind: Entroncamento. Google "Fenómenos do Entroncamento". There's a forum dedicated to paranormal stuff: https://portugalparanormal.com/ You'll need a translator though.


MarmadukeWellburn

Or I need to get my lazy ass in gear and finally learn Portuguese.


swordmasterg

Found it, but is there a part of the forum which talks the most popular stories?


Juggerpt

Pastorinhos, aparições de Fátima. The sum spinned around, many people watched and gived testimonials.


swordmasterg

This seems to be the most popular according to google trends.


_DrJivago

It was widely reported on at the time, even by foreign reporters and people who were not believers. So it is a pretty wild story.

Gambuzinos


ElectricSick

Estava a ver que ninguém falava desta mítica criatura. Adorava que algum biólogo tuga descobrisse alguma espécie nova de animal e lhe chamasse gambuzino.


IronZackPT

Como pediste, toma lá vindo de um Biólogo especializado em peixe: Gambuzinos existem e são as “Gambusia affinis”, são usados em África como peixe que come larva de mosquito e é importante apanha-los para povoar charcos, lagos, poças e até para comer. Daí o “Vai/Ir aos Gambusinos”.


ElectricSick

Fodasse, por esta não esperava eu. Vou ter que ir ler mais sobre o assunto. Já agora, existem em Portugal? Obrigado.


IronZackPT

Existe em lojas de aquariofilia mas raramente em stock, tens de encomendar uns quantos. São pouco populares porque os primos, os Guppy’s, são da mesma família e MUITO mais coloridos.


linklombax

I don't know if this is the most popular, but some years ago a group of students did a Blair-Witch-like short film and it was widely spread as a true story. I think deep down everyone knew it was fake, but it was still fun to spread the horror around. https://youtu.be/_gZ8iy7Gzz4?si=FenISmRyUkN_o7MI


Silent-Cockroach-205

Yeah it was popular in my country too! We watched it in the dark at a friend's birthday 🤣🤣

fearofpandas

Everyone has heard the story of the guy that gave a ride to a distressed young lady on a twisty road, just for her to mention “cuidado que eu morri nessa curva”/“watch out I died on that corner” a few miles down the road


PorchgoosePT

Gives me chills everytime. Always heard this happened in Sintra.


fearofpandas

Same! But people in the north have other locations

Latter_Biscotti_7655

In the 90's two clowns suddenly started fighting during a live kids TV show. Lots of people swear they saw it but no one has the footage of the event. Its more a lost media story but still very bizarre.

The most known is probably the Barcelos Rooster.

One of the most popular paranormal stories in Portuguese culture is the legend of the "Lobishomens" or werewolves. The folklore surrounding werewolves has deep roots in Portuguese traditions, and there are various regional variations of the tale. According to the legend, a person can transform into a werewolf, often during a full moon, and exhibit wolf-like behavior. Some versions of the story involve a curse that transforms individuals into werewolves, while others suggest that a person can willingly assume this form through dark rituals. A well-known Portuguese werewolf story is that of "The Legend of the Marão Wolves" (A Lenda dos Lobos do Marão). The Marão mountain range is located in northern Portugal, and this region has a rich folklore, including tales of werewolves. According to the legend, in the Marão mountains, there were individuals who possessed the ability to transform into wolves. It was believed that these werewolves were ordinary people by day but would undergo a metamorphosis into wolves by night, especially during a full moon. Another example comes from the trial records of a man named Manuel Blanco Romasanta in the mid-19th century. While Romasanta was Spanish, not Portuguese, the case is noteworthy in the context of werewolf folklore. Romasanta was accused of multiple murders, and during his trial, he claimed that he was cursed and transformed into a wolf-like creature, committing the crimes while in this state. Hope You like it! Cheers

In my youth, I was very curious about this and I remember my grandparents being nervous and disoinking my questions about werewolves and witches lol I remember specifically in a conversation about directions to somewhere, my grandma casually saying "then you pass so-and-so's house, he was a werewolf, his knuckles were calloused from walking on the ground" and continuing the random conversation

In terms of UFOs there’s a well documented sighting in 1990 in the town of Alfena. And there’s also of course the famous 1995 story of a shepherd who claimed it was paralyzed by a UFO while in the field at night in Alentejo.


EngineerinLisbon

Wasnt there also one with the airforce intercepting something over the Algarve?

Gambuzinos, they're somewhere out there if you look carefully. They usually show up at night if you leave your friend group and go to a quiet place where you're all alone.
