  What is the true meaning of quantum superposition? Can a particle genuinely
reside in several places simultaneously? These questions lie at the heart of
this paper which presents an updated survey of some important stages in the
evolution of the three-boxes paradox, as well as novel conclusions drawn from
it. We begin with the original thought experiment of Aharonov and Vaidman, and
proceed to its non-counterfactual version. The latter was recently realized by
Okamoto and Takeuchi using a quantum router. We then outline a dynamic version
of this experiment, where a particle is shown to "disappear" and "re-appear"
during the time evolution of the system. This surprising prediction based on
self-cancellation of weak values is directly related to our notion of Quantum
Oblivion. Finally, we present the non-counterfactual version of this
disappearing-reappearing experiment. Within the near future, this last version
of the experiment is likely to be realized in the lab, proving the existence of
exotic hitherto unknown forms of superposition. With the aid of Bell's theorem,
we prove the inherent nonlocality and nontemporality underlying such pre- and
post-selected systems, rendering anomalous weak values ontologically real.
