successful Some Things Strange & Sinister.
For those interested in Ufology, cryptozoology, hominology, unusual natural history, ghosts and mysteries in general.
The secret history of gorillas in the UK -before they were officially 'discovered'. The history of the Wild men of Europe, the UK and US: something that in the 1800s become very "pop culture" Very pop culture and totally forgotten today!
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.

After more than 30 years as an
investigator and more than forty as a naturalist,the author has opened
some of the many files he has accumulated dealing with such things as..
The Terrifying Events At The Lamb Inn, The Ghosts Of All Saints
Church, Dead Aquatic
Creatures of Canvey Island, captured bigfoot like creatures in India -all
exclusively presented for the first time and with new
added research previously unseen.
PLUS a vastly expanded section on
Spring-heeled Jack!
Photographs, maps, line drawings
and up-dated to make 358 pages looking at Things truly Strange and
Sinister.
Cryptozoologist,Ghost Hunter,Ufologist or Fortean:this
book has something for everyone -including the just plain inquisitive!
The Red Paper
The research took almost 40 years on some aspects (starting in 1977) and
if there is one book I have to hold up and momentarily get an ego over
it is this one. Wolves, foxes -including arctic foxes- Jackals and
coyotes in the UK. Many exotics just released to hunt or simply
dumped/escapees.
The history of foxes in the UK and how they were about to become extinct (there may be no such thing as a true "British fox" now) but were imported in their thousands each year "for sport" -even I sat dumbfounded when I made certain discoveries such as stabling foxes, what "bagging a fox" REALLY meant and more.
One naturalist of 60 years read it and called it "The most explosive book on British wildlife ever" and yet, not a single copy has ever sold.
And my old colleagues at the British Naturalist Association....I like to call them "the opposition" now.

Up-dated 2011 edition includes
section on sarcoptic mange in foxes and treatment plus a list of
wildlife sanctuaries and rescue centres in the UK.
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.
The summation of decades of work (1977-2011 and still ongoing) and research 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 helped
provide the British and Irish countryside with some incredible events.
The Girt Dog of Ennerdale is also dealt with in detail
"Photo Of Killed Sasquatch!" and I would appreciate it if someone could show me WHERE!
I'm sorry, a dark, shadowy "something" that does look like someone in a monkey suit. I followed the link that led to another link and....the vaguest, worst images claiming to be something I've ever seen.
And there are these camera ready hunters they are leaning over the corpse of a Sasquatch and only take distance shots showing a far from bulky "something" on the ground. Hoax.
Now ask me WHY I do not think "experts" want to take the subject seriously. Like UFOs, ghosts and other phenomena the digital age means that outright poor hoaxes like this reach thousands and it is EVERY day. EVERY week. EVERY month.

Atlantis might be real
Note that I did write MIGHT!
Unknown metal ingots on shipwreck offer hint that Atlantis might be real
'Nothing similar has ever been found. We knew orichalcum from ancient texts and a few ornamental objects.'
Rob Waugh – 2 hours 34 minutes ago- Rob Waugh - Atlantis
An
unknown metal said to have been used in the sunken city of Atlantis has
been found on 2,600-year-old shipwreck near the coast of Sicily.
The 39 ingots of ‘orichalcum’ - described by Plato in his writings about Atlantis - are utterly unique.
'Nothing similar has ever been found,' an expert said.
Plato described
Atlantis as glittering ‘with the red light of orichalcum’, and he
claimed that it was mined there, and used to build huge, glinting
temples to the sea god Poseidon.
A group of Brazilian and Japanese scientists working on the South Atlantic seabed prevoulsy found continental rocks …
Sebastiano Tusa,
of Sicily's Sea Office, said, ‘The wreck dates to the first half of the
sixth century. It was found about 1,000 feet from the coast at a depth
of 10 feet.’
'Nothing similar has ever been found. We knew orichalcum from ancient texts and a few ornamental objects.'
The real metal is a brass-like alloy, which was made in a crucible in ancient times.
The ingots offer a
tantalising hint that Plato’s stories of Atlantis might have been more
than myth - many argue that his tale of the sunken city is ficiton,
meant to illustrate his political theories.
Plato’s account
of Atlantis was written around 360BC - he describes it as bigger than
Turkey and Libya put together, and claims it was a major sea power
located in the Atlantic.
The
philosopher wrote, ‘It was the way to the other islands, and from these
you might pass to the whole of the opposite continent.’
