Most likely not. 'Strange Events' is often a product of the author's imagination, crafted to entertain and engage readers rather than being rooted in truth.
One strange event could be the appearance of unexplained lights in the sky in certain areas. These lights were reported by multiple witnesses and defied easy explanation, whether they were some sort of natural phenomenon or something more mysterious.
In cases where there were unexplained lights, it created a sense of unease and excitement in the local communities. Some people were scared, thinking it could be something alien or dangerous. Others were excited and hoped it was a new scientific discovery waiting to be made.
Some strange ghost ship stories are based on real events. For example, the Mary Celeste was a real ship that was found abandoned. However, over time, many fictional elements might have been added to make the story more mysterious. The real circumstances were probably more mundane, like the crew fearing a possible explosion due to some gas leak and abandoning ship hastily.
It depends. While some true detective stories are directly based on actual events with little to no alteration, others might incorporate fictional characters or subplots to make the story more engaging or to fill in gaps in the known facts.
