UFOs and Supernatural Black Dogs


"On more than a few occasions I’ve been asked why – for the most part – I don’t take a mainstream 'nuts and bolts' approach to the UFO phenomenon. Well, it’s true: I don’t. The reason being that I see clear cross-overs between certain Ufological events and multiple other paranormal phenomena. Take, for example, the more than a few reports on record of Bigfoot seen at the same time and place as strange lights in the sky. Or, the parallels between alien abduction encounters and reports of incubus- and succubus-style activity. Then there’s the matter of UFOs and synchronicities. As I see it, we’re dealing with something far stranger than an extraterrestrial equivalent of NASA. A perfect example of all this is a case from 1980. It’s one that has been hailed as a UFO classic (and in many respects it is). But, when we look deeper, we find it’s steeped in high-strangeness; much of which takes it far away from Ufology."

That's how one of my recent Mysterious Universe article begins, and which you can find here.

Phantom Hounds in Latin America






My new Mysterious Universe article is a review of a cool booklet on "Phantom Black Dogs" that was published a few years ago, but which is now available as a free download.

While most people associated the PBD phenomenon with the UK, as Simon Burchell (the author of Phantom Black Dogs in Latin America) notes, there is an amazing and extensive body of data on near-identical beasts in Latin America.

A fascinating study of an under-appreciated aspect of the PBD mystery!

Here's the link.

Two Volumes of Paranormal Excellence!


Liz Randall (who writes under the name of Kithra) is a good friend of mine who lives in Cornwall, England. 

She has a collection of her writings out right now, which is contained in 2 volumes and that I wrote the forewords for. 

They are very cool books that cover a wide range of mysteries, including sightings of "big cats' in the UK, mythology, folklore, ghostly black dogs, sea serpents, and much more...


Their titles are From Lyonesse to Alien Big Cats and Back Again (Vols. 1 & 2).

Here's where you can buy the first volume, and click here for the second.
