Strange & Mysterious Beasts


I was told that it was probably a good idea not to reveal all of the contents of the new book. Fair enough. It is 324 pages with lots of photographs.  If you have read one of my previous books then I will point out that this new look at the chupacabra is expanded on.  I have managed to draw some conclusions on certain previously unidentified beasts. 

I am guessing that the conclusions in the chapter on the Shunka Warak'in and the famous stuffed and mounted specimen are going to really upset some cryptozoologists.

In High Strangeness and UFO Contact? I looked at the faults in Ufology and how the subject needed drastic overhauling and I do the same here regarding mystery animal research which seems to be full of charlatans and liars out to make money rather than look for the truth. I try to give anyone approaching the subject matter some advice and guidelines but 'cryptozoology' and 'cryptozoologist' are two words they ought not to use.

Strange & Mysterious Beasts is the smaller format book while Mysterious & Strange Beasts is the standard larger A4 format.

IGNORE the "only ships from North America" as that is just a site message error

I need to point out that, much though I really do want to avoid this, US taxes are not leaving me much in the way of profit from sales.  I really do not want to increase book prices since I think that at the moment they are fair (considering what a purchaser gets and the amount of my work that gets plagiarized).  I am told that it has to be an option, however, I have until 1st February, 2018 to decide.

Since 1947 it has been claimed that UFOs/flying saucers are evidence of aliens visiting the Earth.  Since the 1950s claims of encounters with landed craft and alien beings were talked about but not taken seriously.

In the 1960s the subject of UFO abduction was a "slow-burner" until the whole "Grey" abduction phenomenon and claims made by researchers such as Budd Hopkins, Prof. John Mack and Dr David Jacobs and Whitley Streiber.

But is there evidence to back up any of the claims -and what about those encountering Alien Entities but who were not abducted?

Are these people all hoaxers, psychotic or suffering from some other mental illness as some claim?

Are those people who were exposed by Ufologists against their wishes, people who wanted to report what happened and then just get back to their everyday lives -thrust into the media glare against their will?

And if US authorities were so interested that in one case at least they broke into the home of two abductees and this was later proven -why?

Why did a hard core of these people never want publicity or to make money from what happened to them?

Above all, why did a major UFO landing incident take place on a US Inbterstate road in front of a large number of observers (all willing to talk to investigators) never get investigated? If it were not for a radio presenter interviewing and taking notes we would know nothing of the case -it would be labelled "insubstantial".

James and Coral Lorensen -the Scopolamine Kids; using a very notorious "truth drug" on alleged UFO witnesses and selling stories to newspapers.  An investigator (a veteran) showing a witness images of "aliens" encountered in other cases before any memories were retrieved.  Worst of all, the constant "pissing competition" and breaches of trust between UFO investigators.

2017 is the time to assess the past evidence and look at the faults within Ufology.

Not everyone is going to be happy -debunkers or ufologists.

The Truth About Spring-Heeled Jack  
Terry Hooper-Scharf
Paperback,
53 Pages 
Dimensions (centimetres) 20.98 wide x 29.69 tall  (A4)
fully illustrated and referenced
£10.00


The terror and mystery created by “Jack The Ripper” has been the subject of countless books, magazine articles as well as movies and TV documentaries. Ask anyone if they have ever heard of Jack The Ripper and it is doubtful anyone would respond with a “no idea.” 

By that same token, ask people who “Spring-heeled Jack” was and you would be lucky to find anyone who had ever heard of him. 

Spring-heeled Jack was the subject (loosely) of a film The Curse of the Wraydons (1946) and Dominic Keating also appeared as Spring Heeled Jack in the 2010 film Sherlock Holmes by The Asylum film company. The character has also featured in both American and British comic books and a number of books, for both children and adults. 

But the fact that the Springald held the country –not just London– in a grip of terror much longer that the Ripper did is all but forgotten except for some half-truths and fanciful theories. 


Now be prepared to read the full story of Spring Heeled Jack

Girt Dog and Mystery Canids -sorting the Facts!

These two books have been acclaimed because of their historical research and not just because Canids is the first book ever to look at the history, near extinction and return of the fox in the UK: both look at historical implications and deal sensibly with the claims of so called cryptozoologists -and you might be surprised by the conclusions.

Nature/wildlife lover or interested in mysteries -these two will be for you!

Cover prices will not increase until after Christmas 2018!

What Is 'Oumuamua? With Dr. Karen Meech



I just spent two hours typing a post to cover all of this and...Blogger has lost it.  It was posted but, and this is sadly NOT a rarity with Bogger, it vanished.

I do not have another two hours to waste.

09-11-2018: UFO ? Recorded Over Coleraine, Northern Ireland



Not much doubt that this looks like  a meteorite breaking up -space debris can never be ruled out though but I'll go with meteorite!

17th April, 1897 Aurora UFO Crash

James & Coral Lorenzen of the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) had mentioned in at least two editions of its APRO Bulletin how Frank Scully and Co. had been exposed as hoaxers fairly quickly in the 1950s over their crashed flying saucer story -Roswell. It was a hoax.  Fake. Never happened. I spent from 1979-1985 trying to look into the Roswell crash and Leonard H. Stringfield did all in his power to make the Crash-Retrieval phenomenon a profitable concern.

But, today, Roswell is still touted as a profitable business for local community concerns as well as ufologist hacks who have no interest in the truth.

Another profitable, for some, UFO crash was the one alleged to have taken place in  1897.  In the early 1970s almost everyone involved in ufology knew that it was a hoax -the perpetrator admitted it within days.

Jim Marrs and UFO Hunters as well as so many of the other liars have tried to make -and succeeded where certain people are concerned- the 1897 event genuine. With UFOs twenty suckers are born every minute.

You want to believe in a Dr Who-UFO fantasy world where around 150+ flying saucers have crashed since 1947...well, if it makes you happy.

If you want to know the facts then read the below from the APRO Bulletin Vol. 21, no. 6 of May-June, 1973.  Challenge the ufological liars who throw away facts because lies and deceit make money...from you.

Shannon Air[port: multiple aircraft UFO sightings

Calls from the BBC as well as an Irish radio station today and I responded that, with all the recent asteroid and other debris sighted I believe this was a large meteorite breaking up.



Lucia Binding, news reporter,Sky News

UFO investigated in Ireland after multiple aircraft sightings

The Irish Aviation Authority is investigating an unidentified flying object (UFO) after pilots reported seeing one off the coast of Ireland.
Shannon Air Traffic Control received a call from a British Airways pilot flying from Montreal to Heathrow over County Kerry at 6.47am on 9 November.
In an audio clip posted by LiveATC.net, the pilot can be heard asking if there were military exercises taking place within the craft's airspace at the time.
She said the object came up alongside the plane before vanishing at "a very high speed".
"Alongside you?" the Shannon Air Traffic Controller replied.
"It came up on our left-hand-side and then rapidly veered to the north," the BA pilot said.


She said it was "a bright light and then it disappeared at a very high-speed", adding they were "wondering" what it could be - adding that that it did not seem to be on a collision course.
Controllers on the ground said there was "nothing showing on either primary or secondary (radar)".
Two other planes can then be heard reporting the sighting to Shannon Air Traffic Control.
A Virgin Airlines pilot suggested that the it could be an object re-entering the earth's atmosphere after reporting seeing "multiple objects following the same sort of trajectory... very bright from where we were."
Another pilot said the speed of the UFO was "astronomical, it was like Mach 2", or twice the speed of sound.
Despite the term UFO being widely used for extra-terrestrial spacecraft, most UFOs are later identified as conventional objects or phenomena.
The Irish Aviation Authority said they were investigating the incident.
In a statement, an IAA spokesman told Sky News: "Following reports from a small number of aircraft on Friday 9th November of unusual air activity the IAA has filed a report.
"This report will be investigated under the normal confidential occurrence investigation process."


UFOs spotted off Irish coast under investigation

The Irish Aviation Authority is investigating reports of bright lights and UFOs off the south-west coast of Ireland.
It began at 06:47 local time on Friday 9 November when a British Airways pilot contacted Shannon air traffic control.
She wanted to know if there were military exercises in the area because there was something "moving so fast".
The air traffic controller said there were no such exercises.
The pilot, flying from the Canadian city of Montreal to Heathrow, said there was a "very bright light" and the object had come up along the left side of the aircraft before it "rapidly veered to the north".
She was wondering what it could be but said it did not seem to be heading for a collision.
Another pilot from a Virgin plane joined in and suggested it might be a meteor or another object re-entering the earth's atmosphere.

He said there were "multiple objects following the same sort of trajectory" and that they were very bright.
The pilot said he saw "two bright lights" over to the right which climbed away at speed.
One pilot said the speed was "astronomical, it was like Mach 2" - which is twice the speed of sound.

What could it have been?

Apostolos Christou, an astronomer from the Armagh Observatory and Planetarium, said what the pilots saw was probably a piece of dust entering the earth's atmosphere at very high speed.
"It was most likely what are commonly called shooting stars," he said.
"It appears the matter was extremely bright so it must have been quite a large piece of material.
"I cannot say from the pilots' description, but it could have been the size of a walnut or an apple."

Shooting starImage copyrightGETTY IMAGES

The astronomer said November tended to be a very active month for such activity.
"It also appears there were bits coming off the object and flying past the aeroplane, that is also what you would expect if it was a particularly large rock from space hitting the atmosphere, it would tend to fragment."

"Following reports from a small number of aircraft on Friday 9 November of unusual air activity the IAA has filed a report," the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) said.
"This report will be investigated under the normal confidential occurrence investigation process."
A spokesperson for Shannon Airport said it would not be appropriate for the airport to comment while the IAA investigation is ongoing.
