by Hunt Emerson (Author)
Vampires, Ghosts, Faeries, UFOs, Werewolves, Folk Beliefs, Miracles, Mystery Smells, Unknown Animals, Megaliths, Saints, Weird Cults, Weird Deaths, Weird Feet, Rains of Blood, Fishes and Stones... The mysterious and bizarre world that exists around us, whether we believe in it or not. Hunt Emerson's pages about these phenomena have been a regular feature in Fortean Times magazine for many years. Hallucinatory and hilarious, digressive and daft, many of these stories have some sort of documentary evidence. Equally as many are made up by Emerson himself.
