Yes, indeed, another year has come to an end, which means it's time for my annual look at this blog's best--or, at least, most popular posts of 2025. As always, there were a couple of surprises for me.
I really didn't expect my #1 post to be the one about the time Americans nearly switched to a diet of hippo burgers, but I suppose this is just that sort of blog.
2. The Natives of the Red Dragon
This was one of my favorites of the year: a delightfully offbeat story about a mysterious disappearance and some weird stamps.
3. Murders, Disappearances, and Mystery: A Family Affair
The sinister tale of one very disturbing family.
4. Weekend Link Dump, February 7
Can't have a Top Ten without a WLD! In fact, some of my readers have occasionally hinted that my blog would be greatly improved if I would just shut up and do nothing but share links.
5. Newspaper Clipping of the Day, August 20
The sort of thing that happens when an undertaker enters into an on-the-job romance.
6. The Restaurant That Never Was
A wonderful time-slip account.
7. Newspaper Clipping of the Day, September 3
Disputes over burial sites can be so embarrassing.
8. "Something Utterly Malign"; Or, Why You Should Be Very Careful Where You Hike in Scotland
A casual walk in the countryside turns into a terrifying encounter with The Weird.
A seemingly inoffensive man's brutal and mysterious murder.
10. The Lorius/Heberer Mystery
Two couples disappear during a road trip.
And there you have it! See you in 2026, when I hope to share more tales of murders, disappearances, paranormal activity, and humans being generally peculiar. There probably won't be any more hippo burgers, but I suppose you never know.
