Bizarre Fortune Telling



How many different methods are there for fortune telling? We think more than thousands are there in this World. Let us know about some bizarre fortune telling methods!

  • Bibliomancy: Open the Bible and read the first passage you see – that’s your fortune.
  • Dilitiriomancy: Feed African benge poison to a chicken. Ask the gods a question, being careful to end the question with, “if the chicken dies, the answer is yes,” or “if the chicken dies, the answer is no.” Then wait to see if the chicken dies.
  • Haruspication: Study the guts of an animal, preferably a sacred one.
  • Scarpomancy: Predict someone’s future by studying their old shoes.
  • Stichomancy: Read the first passage of any book you see.

Death Predicting Dog


Meet Scamp. But wait, it is not just another dog! Scamp can sense death and provides comfort to the dying by standing by them. Scamp lives in a nursing home, The Pines, in Canton, Ohio. Scamp's owner, Deirdre Huth, is a staff member at the nursing home. According to her, Scamp even tries to raise the alarm when he gets the feeling that one of the seniors is at death's door.

Director of nursing Adeline Baker says Scamp has forecast practically every one of the 40 or so deaths that have occurred in the three years he's been at the home. She also insists Scamp's presence is welcomed by patients as the end draws near.Link
