UFOs and Aliens In Germany -Reports Unaffected By Media?

It's rather interesting to look at accounts of this kind from Germany up to, say, the 1980s.  There were Close Encounters of the Third Kind going back to the early 1950s (Oskar Linke).  However, reports do not appear to have been affected by movie or TV sci fi.

1965-1966 saw the seven episodes series of Raumpatrouille Orion -still with a big cult following today and not just in Germany but further afield in Europe.  And yet there are no reports of UFOs sighted that look like any of the great craft from the TV series.  No alien crews looking or dressed like the crew of Patrol Ship Orion.

Apart from a rare -very rare- few reports from the United Stated involving Star Trek style crews -and these cases were so easily identified as psychological I don't think any were even published in periodicals.

Yet Star Trek has been seen by many millions.  Raumpatrouille Orion was seen my a huge audience.  It seems to defeat the whole idea that TV and movies have influenced UFO reporting.

There is a report from Germany in the early 1980s where entities were seen to burst into flame and it was pointed out that this was similar to what happened to aliens when they died in the 1960s US TV series The Invaders but a reluctant to talk witness meant nothing more was learnt so jumping to conclusions might not be a good idea.

Having written this, of course, I am reminded that the lizard character Gorn from the original Star Trek TV series seems to turn up a lot in modern abduction reports as the aggressive "security" alien reptoid.

Just a thought.

By the 1700s the British fox was on the verge of extinction and about to follow the bear and wolf having been hunted for sport for centuries. 
The answer was to import thousands of foxes per year for sport. But foxes kept dying out so jackals were tried. Some were caught, some escaped. Even wolves and coyote were released for hunting and "country folk" were very far from "happy" -some even threatening local hunts -one intending to release a wolf for a hunt- with legal and other consequences.
The summation of over 40 years research by the noted naturalist and former UK police forces exotic wildlife consultant reveals the damnable lie of "pest control" hunting but also reveals the cruelty the animals were subject to and how private menageries as well as travelling shows.
Private menageries, or single exotic "pets" as well as travelling shows helped provide the British and Irish countryside with some incredible events such as the 1905 "vampiric" sheep killer of Badminton, the mystery hounds of Cavan and Coyotes of Epping Forest. 
The Girt Dog of Ennerdale is also dealt with in detail -was it a tiger? A Tasmania Thylacine? This book gives the exact facts and details for the first time.

Up-dated 2013 edition includes a section on sarcoptic mange in foxes and treatment plus a list of wildlife sanctuaries and rescue centres in the UK.

Hominology. Sasquatch and Bigfoot -is there evidence for their existence?  No sitting on the fence here -the Patterson-Gimlin film is looked at as well as other evidence.  The Author's conclusions? You might be surprised.
Giant snakes. Amazons. The Giant serpent of Carthage. The Girt Dog of Ennerdale -another big cult 'creature' amongst paranormal and cryptozoological circles. The Beast of Gevaudan -what was it and were there really descendents of the creature in the 19th century -one of which was actually brought to London? 

 Believe it or not more than one incident of historical crocodiles cases in the UK.  In fact, far more than even the Author had thought .

And, after more than a century of claims by 'researchers' that it no longer exists: The Silent City of Alaska and the near legendary 'lost' photograph taken of it.

 This and much more. Updated with extra pages and photographs.

                                         Things On Land
On The Scientific 'Need' To Kill A Sasquatch   111
Dmitri Bayanov and the anti “kill a Sasquatch” argument and John Green and John Steenburg on the need to kill a Sasquatch: is it necessary to kill an individual of what might be a rare relic population of hominids?
The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy Has Blood On Its Hands   117
The TBRC has now claimed to have shot and wounded Sasquatch creatures.  The Bigfoot community is up in arms that an organisation set up to research and conserve these creatures is apparently turning to the gun to “scientifically prove” the Sasquatch is real by producing a body. 
On Gathering Hard evidence  122
Rather than kill a Sasquatch or any other unknown creature is there an alternative to prove they exist? The simple answer is “yes”.
The Patterson-Gimlin Film  129
Filmed in 1967, the brief footage of “Patty” was shaky and split the scientific community in two regarding its authenticity.  With the film now digitally cleaned, image steadied and modern scientific techniques used to analyse it why is it getting harder to believe it is a hoax?
No, South America Does Not Have A Sasquatch  142
South America from Patagonia up to Mexico has its own set of mysterious hominid creatures from the Mapirangua to Ucu.  The comparisons between the Yeti, Sasquatch and these creatures are striking; from basic tools to habitat.
Tales From A German Wood  152
Raccoon-like dogs, a mystery primate and much more seem to have focussed on a little village in Germany.
The Strange Case Of The Gotherington Gargoyle  156
UFO reports and the sighting by an off duty fireman of what he could only describe as a “hideous gargoyle” creature.
The Strange Creature of Repton Wood  165
UFO sightings and a report of a strange, bi-pedal fox-like creature that vanished into the ground!
The Star Child Hoax  170
The ‘alien-human hybrid’ hoax exposed but what was the “Chicken Man” –a real alien hybrid?
The Strange Creature On The Beach 188
Just what did a couple on holiday photograph on a German beach –a strange creature from out of time and space?
Photographic Evidence That Dinosaurs Exist?  195
The Kasai Rex photographs said to have been taken in the 1930s in two different parts of Africa are said to show dinosaurs still existed.  And what of the hunt for the African Brontosaurus –and what happened to Stevens?
First Ever UFO Photograph Or Proof Of Early Airships?  206
It is claimed to be the first ever UFO photograph and was taken on a mountain top in the United States in 1870 –the best evidence of UFOs in the past or experimental airship flights?
Two Early French Entity Cases 212
Did Masse encounter a landed flying saucer in 1965 and see two entities? And why did he vow never to reveal what happened during the encounter –taking the secret to his grave?  And what of Dewilde in 1954 –was he paralysed by a UFO while the occupants went about their business? Did his dog die because of the encounter?
End Word  221
Sasquatch DNA evidence breakthrough?  Did Justin Smeja deliberately shoot two Sasquatch creatures and will the evidence prove it?  How you can help gather information on the strange and weird.

 The Bizarre Legends, Crimes And Truth About Spring Heeled Jack (2014)





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
Price: £7.00
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
 And if any of that piqued your curiousity then, in 2016.....
