Founded in 1907 by men returning from the Klondike Gold Rush, The Arctic Club was a private enclave for those who had struck it rich - and who had seen things they couldn’t explain.

The official records speak of ci**rs, whiskey, and décor lifted from polar expeditions. But
unofficially? It was said that some members didn’t come back from the ice alone.

Rumors swirl of objects found frozen in Yukon glaciers - strange relics carved with unfamiliar
runes, compasses that spun wildly, whispers that echoed even in the silence of permafrost.
These items were brought back and sealed in vaults beneath the Arctic Club, guarded by men who had seen something beyond the aurora.

Rainier is more than a mountain…

For centuries, energy has pulsed beneath the Pacific Northwest, where ley lines converge across our mountains, forests, and cities. These intersections have created strange pockets of power. Where time folds and reality wavers.

From alleyways where time behaves oddly, to a rooftop library entrance only newcomers seem to find (as if they’ve always known it), Seattle is a city built on thresholds.

Could Mount Rainier be one of them?

We’re compiling new evidence - and we want to hear from you.

Have you ever encountered a dream that felt more real than waking life? Tell us. Your story may lead us to the next portal to Nebula.

The letters never stopped.

In the dim glow of a single bulb, a young woman sits at a wooden desk in Seattle’s historic Panama Hotel, her son at her side. She writes letter after letter - words meant for someone lost to time. But what if they were never truly lost?

The Panama Hotel holds more than history. Suitcases left behind, whispers that linger in the tea-stained air. During the 1940s, entire families vanished overnight, their belongings sealed away in the basement. But some say that not all who left did so by train.

Could the Panama Hotel have been a portal to Nebula? A thin place where reality wavered, where desperate souls seeking escape found something… else?

The letters never stopped. Not then. Not now.

Do you hear them?

Seattle has always been a hotbed for the curious and the unexplained.

Devorah DeLeon, founder of NebTech and self-proclaimed Dream Collector, was the first to investigate the Georgetown Steam Plant, and the proof after last year's demonstration is undeniable. But now, she’s been spotted near other landmarks—staking out places where reality bends and the boundary between worlds wears thin.

Could Seattle be riddled with dream portals? What has been hidden in our history? There is a faction that is documenting the evidence and is soon ready to reveal the truth…

Preacher Samuel Hart promised salvation - but stole from hundreds of migrant workers to fund a darker purpose. In 1921 he used their tithes to open a portal to Nebula, alongside pioneering archeologist Alexandra Finch. Were his unethical means justified? And what does this deception mean for our future?

Physicist Eleanor Blackwood’s near-death experiment changed everything. Left with questions science couldn’t answer, she turned to spiritualist circles, seeking proof beyond the physical realm. Her discoveries allowed the Missing 6 to enter Nebula—and we believe she’s not finished yet. Will she open the portal again from the other side?

We are grieving and heading to the internet to buy first editions...

Rest in Peace, Tom Robbins. We were honored to meet you and share in your brilliance. You continue to inspire us.

"I try to create something that’s beautiful to look at and delicious to the taste, and yet in the middle there’s this hard, sharp instrument that you can use to saw through the bars and liberate yourself, should you so desire.” -Tom Robbins

What Are Your Dreams Telling You?

Dr. Basil Sangalang, Dream Scientist and founder of NebTech, has spent years decoding the mysteries of the dream world, and one recent submission left us all in awe...

A dreamer, haunted by the image of writhing eels, uncovered something profound—an imbalance in their life. In dream analysis, eels symbolize unchecked masculine energy, a force that can overwhelm creativity, intuition, and balance.

Through reflection, this dreamer realized how patriarchal values had quietly taken hold of their work and relationships. The dream wasn’t just strange—it was a wake-up call.

Our dreams hold messages about the world around us and within us. Are you listening?

Something strange is stirring in under the iconic Seattle skyline... Dreams are vanishing.

Night after night, sleepers wake with a hollow feeling—memories missing, subconscious whispers stolen in the dark. Where are the dreams going? And who is taking them?

The answers lie just beyond the veil… if you dare to look.

Imagine entering your favorite library or coffee shop after a tumultuous night’s sleep and entering your Dream into our NebTech console for instant analysis and prescription! The future is now.

Those eels won’t be bothering you much longer, Chad!

Today, January 25, 2025, the planets align in a rare cosmic configuration that echoes the patterns seen in Nebula’s earliest experiments. Astrologers and dream scientists alike believe this celestial event is a powerful sign—a portal to Nebula could open anywhere at any moment.

Is the universe pointing us toward our next step? Or perhaps inviting you to be the one who finds the door? Keep your senses sharp, your dream journals close, and your heart open—because the key to Nebula might be closer than you think.

Where do you think the portal could appear? 🌙✨

In 1921, vaudeville songstress and medium Isabella Morgan used her lunar charts to guide the ill-fated Nebula expedition. Her gift? Seeing beyond the veil—except when it came to her own tragic end inside the unstable portal at the Georgetown Steam Plant.

Now, whispers of Isabella's presence linger. Could her connection to the dream world allow her to reach across time? Might another medium in 2025 hear her voice and uncover the secrets she left behind?

View her original moon chart here and join us as we unravel the mysteries of Nebula. Do you believe Isabella may return in another form?
