Poland, Dolnośląskie Voivodeship: 'Call of the Abandoned Mine' Unidentified Contact Incident
Summary
In the early hours of October 17, 2018, faint singing originating from within an abandoned mine shaft near Krzyszkowice village in Poland's Dolnośląskie Voivodeship was recorded. This incident transcended a mere auditory phenomenon, as sensors placed inside the shaft detected anomalous cold spots and electromagnetic fluctuations. Subsequently, multiple investigators at the site reported experiencing physical contact by an unseen entity, sustaining inexplicable injuries. The authorities are currently conducting ongoing investigations to determine the correlation between this enigmatic singing and the contact phenomena, as well as their source. Local folklore recounts an old mining disaster in the shaft, where numerous lives were lost, though no official records exist. The phenomenon continues to occur, its true nature remaining unknown.
Details
At 03:12 on October 17, 2018, an automated audio recording device installed by the authorities in an abandoned mine shaft near Krzyszkowice village in the Dolnośląskie Voivodeship captured faint singing strongly resembling a human voice. This shaft had been closed for decades, making unauthorized entry impossible. Concurrently, temperature sensors detected an abrupt, localized temperature drop, and electromagnetic sensors registered anomalous fluctuations.
Following this recording, the authorities initiated a detailed on-site investigation in November 2018. Local residents held an old belief that the souls of victims from a major mining accident, said to have occurred in this very shaft, wandered its depths. Specifically, a story persisted of a mother who, having lost her child, sang a mournful song as she disappeared into the mine. This folklore suggests a potential connection to the recorded singing.
On January 12, 2019, an unmanned probe was deployed into the mine shaft. Communication with the probe was lost mid-operation. Upon retrieval, the device showed unnatural dents on parts of its body and fine scratches on its camera lens. Recorded footage displayed the entire image being engulfed in static, momentarily revealing a vague, human-like shadow coinciding with the singing. The shadow was extremely faint, its specific shape indiscernible.
On March 5, 2019, a manned investigation team, fully equipped with protective gear, entered the deeper sections of the shaft. At the point where the probe had malfunctioned, they experienced extreme cold, whispers near their ears, and tactile sensations as if being pushed from behind. Investigator A, the team leader, reported feeling his hair being strongly pulled while his helmet communication temporarily failed. Unexplained red linear marks were found on his body.
Similar phenomena recurred during subsequent investigations. The recorded cold spots reached near-absolute zero at specific locations, starkly contrasting with ambient temperatures. Multiple team members reported unexplained falls or equipment malfunctions. These anomalies were most pronounced when the singing was audible. The authorities' scientific analysis could not explain these phenomena using existing physical laws.
Though the recorded singing is presumed to be female, sound source analysis was consistently obstructed, preventing identification of a clear origin. Voice print analysis was also impossible. Additionally, radiation and electromagnetic meters worn by team members recorded extreme readings for brief periods during the singing and contact events, but the data was sporadic and lacked reliability. There was no evidence of external intrusion whatsoever.
This incident remains ongoing. The authorities continue to re-examine the mine's physical structure, regional geological characteristics, and historical lore. The correlation between the singing and contact phenomena, as well as their underlying mechanisms, remain unexplained. The authorities conclude that this peculiar phenomenon is not attributable to mere hallucination or psychological factors and maintain continuous recording and surveillance. While recurrence is unpredictable, a tendency for increased frequency during specific periods has been observed.

Witness Testimony
Investigator AMy hair was strongly pulled from behind. A sharp pain. I immediately turned around, but no one was there. At that exact moment, my helmet's communication cut out.
Investigator BSomething whispered in my ear. It wasn't clear words, but I felt a strong emotion. Simultaneously, my feet slipped, and I was thrown to the ground. Oddly, the spot was dry.
Village Elder (Anonymous)Those are the ghosts of the old mine. Especially when you hear the sad song of a mother who lost her child, they appear.
Kyu's Analysis
Unexplained physical contact occurred. This suggests a chain of phenomena. Continued surveillance and investigation are necessary.
