Loud Booms Heard Around the World: What Are They? by Chris Chaos

In the summer months of 2012 we kept hearing these weird noises outside. It was after midnight, summer and the windows were open, so it was slightly quieter since most people were sleeping. The sound was a mix of a boom, a warble and some kind of hum, similar to the sounds made by the alien ships in the movie "The War of the Worlds". For the 1st week of hearing these strange noises I just assumed that it was the ships down on the docks at Philly (Delaware River) since they are literally only two blocks from my house. But my curiosity got the best of me and when I did a little more investigating I realized that the sounds were not coming from the direction of the ports, they seemed to be all over, and not in the echo way.

War of the Worlds

Here is a collection of videos from around the world that feature the noise..some have been proven fake and others are still undetermined

At first I did not think much of them but after hearing them week after week and not being able to determine what was causing the noise I decided to look into it a bit further. Eventually I looked to the net and I found videos claiming to have captured the sound that I was hearing. In description it appeared to be the same but when playing the videos either you could not hear the noise due to a low volume of the noise in question or it was a blatant fake that used the trumpet audio sounds from the movie Legion. The videos were in no short supply, from legit news sites to conspiracy sites, but the story was there, that is for sure.

Also in no short order were the explanations of what people thought these noises were. People pointed to  HAARP as the root cause of the sounds, but a logical explanation would be military, since there are a number of bases in the NJ area, but the military themselves are denying they are the cause of the noises heard.

High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP)

Another explanation is just straight up hoaxes, well in video format on the internet that is. There are a number of videos that have been proven hoaxes since the audio was pulled from the KIEV video ( The original KIEV video ) and then inserted into the hoaxer's video. Also some of the less creative hoaxers were inspired by the movie RED STATE in which people played the trumpets sounds over loud speakers to make the Christians in the movie think the Rapture was upon them. Also some videos have been detected that contain audio from the movie mentioned above, LEGION.

Red State

Some people that have heard the noises stated that they thought it might have been an earthquake. Others interjected it was the end of the earth, the Apocalypse and the noise was Gabriel's Trumpets. But scientists state it may have to do with the Aurora Borealis and the Earth's magnetic pull, as explained over at space .com's site: Northern Lights Oddity: Strange Sounds of Auroras Explained

Below are various videos from news stations reporting on these booms and mysterious sounds:
