568: Operation Sunray | Hunting the Entity in the Tsarichina Hole

In the winter of 1990, a small Bulgarian village became the site of a secretive military operation known as "Operation Sunray." Officially, they were searching for buried treasure, but the truth was far more disturbing. Deep beneath the surface, something ancient and malevolent was waiting to be discovered. The locals spoke of strange lights in the sky, mysterious vibrations in the earth, and whispers coming from nowhere. As the excavation progressed, the soldiers began to experience unexplainable phenomena—malfunctioning equipment, shadowy figures, and a growing sense of dread.

This is the story of the evil that lies at the bottom of the Tsarichina Hole. ... Read more
