A supposedly "haunted" house whose owner appeared on a Beatles album cover will become a tourist attraction. Aleister Crowley, who owned Boleskine House on the southeast shore of Loch Ness in Scotland, was a face in the crowd on the cover of Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. He was an occultist who bought the manor in 1899 and rumor has it that some of the angels and demons he "summoned" never disappeared. The manor was also once owned by Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, who reportedly bought it in 1971 because of its haunted reputation. The foundation that now owns the manor announced the site will be open for self-guided tours beginning today.

Orange County, California is home to the angriest airport in the U.S. That's according to new rankings from Forbes, which gives the top spot to John Wayne Airport. The rankings are based on an analysis of Twitter activity. Nearly two-thirds of tweets directed at John Wayne Airport are categorized as angry. Many of the complaints are about flight delays, the airport being too noisy, and problems with the TSA. Two Florida airports made the top five: Jacksonville at number two and Tampa at number four. Orlando International is ranked as the 31st most angry airport in the country.

The town of Kyle, Texas has failed in its effort to set the Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people with the same name. The Gathering of the Kyles took place Sunday at Lake Kyle Park, about a half an hour south of Austin. While more than 18-hundred Kyles showed up, it wasn't enough. So far the record is held by a gathering of more than 23-hundred Ivans in eastern Europe that took place in 2017. The event was Kyle's fourth attempt to break the world record.
