Born in Bulgarian city of Strumica in 1911, Baba Vanga formerly known as Vangelia Pandeva Dimitrova or Grandmother Vanga was a blind mystic, who conspiracy theorists believe had predicted natural disasters and major global events including 9/11 attack and the rise of ISIS.
Vanga lived an ordinary life until the age of 12 when she, according to folklore, lost her eyesight in a massive tornado.
According to the oral history, she was lost in tornado and found several days later with her eyes sealed in dirt and dust.
She told her family that she experienced her first vision and was blessed with the powers of healing people and predict future.
Soon, her ‘miraculous’ stories attracted a cult of followers among which one was the Bulgarian tsar Boris III, who even visited her during World War Second.
She later served as an advisor to Bulgarian Communist Party leader.
