On This Day in Weird, December 30...
1916: Conspirator seeking to liberate the Russian monarchy
from "mad monk" Grigori Rasputin assassinate the libidinous
"prophet," with considerable effort, in Saint Petersburg. (Old Style
calendars log his murder on December 17).
1974: A female motorist runs over "a metallic
spider" near the Turnpike Bridge in Gibsonia, Pennsylvania. She describes
the think as 12 inches tall, with eight jointed legs and a body that glowed in
the beams from her headlights. Her husband returns to the site soon afterward
but finds nothing.
