The Truth Is Snout There!

England's Birmingham Mail newspaper gives great coverage to Lee Brickley's new book, UFOs, Werewolves & The Pig-Man: Exposing England's Strangest Location, Cannock Chase .

Much of the article focuses on the Pig-Man of the title, and what a weird tale it is, encompassing what might well be a bit of conspiracy...

Mysteries of the Mountain

The opening words to my latest Mysterious Universe article...

"Situated on the southern tip of the vast and mountainous Cascade Range – which encompasses parts of British Columbia, California, Washington State, and Oregon – Mount Shasta is a huge, all-dominating peak that, at nearly fifteen thousand feet, is the fifth tallest mountain in the Golden State, and one that has been home to human civilization, in varying degrees, since around 5,000 B.C. It’s also a mountain steeped in matters mysterious, unearthly, and deeply ancient.
"Indeed, the interior of Mount Shasta is said to house the last vestiges of a mighty, renowned race of legendary people that dominated the planet in the fog-shrouded past. They were known as the Lemurians and were said to have inhabited a now sunken land, possibly situated somewhere in either the Pacific or Indian Ocean."

A 1960s UK Mothman?

Mothman in the UK? Way back in 1963?

That's the subject of my latest Mysterious Universe article, which tells the strange story of a close encounter with something monstrous.

Not only that, it sounds eerily similar to Point Pleasant, West Virginia's most famous winged thing.

Here's the article.

Coming in August...

Alien Viruses of the Lethal Kind

"There is one thing that we can say for sure about the UFO presence on our world: it acts in a decidedly stealthy manner. It never lays its cards fully on the table. It lurks in the shadows. It surfaces only briefly, tantalizing and amazing those  for whom it manifests. After which, like a typical chain-rattling spectre  it’s gone again. It’s not – so far as we know – overtly hostile. On the other hand, it has done nothing to help improve our situation on Earth, either. In that sense, the phenomenon is more than a bit of a conundrum.

"One day, however, the phenomenon may come storming out of those shadows and remain in full view for all to see. If that does happen, and it proves to be malevolent, then we had better watch out. Big time."

That's how I start my latest Mysterious Universe article on Dr. Bob Wood's new Alien Viruses book, which I ghost-wrote some years back.

New Book: Alien Viruses

Back in 2006, I was hired by Dr. Bob Wood to ghost-write his book, Alien Viruses . The book is now available. Check it out at this link . It tells the story of a disturbing connection between the UFO phenomenon and what may be deadly viruses aimed at exterminating the Human Race.




 

Strange Deaths...

My new Mysterious Universe article tackles a subject that, a few years ago, was all the talk of the conspiracy community. Not so much anymore, though. Plus, it's a subject that someone really should write a full-length book on. Wanna know what it is? You can, right here...

Antonio and the Alien

My latest Mysterious Universe article focuses on a famous - and highly controversial - UFO case from the 1950s. It involves a certain Antonio Villas Boas, a man who went where very few went before, and probably afterwards too!

Keep Out - Now In Audio

For those who may be interested, I got word this morning that my Keep Out! book has just been released in audio version.

For fans of UFOs, it contains much on Area 51, Hangar 18, the "Dulce Base" story, as well as material on the British and Russian equivalents of Area 51. and a great deal more.

Here's the Amazon link to the book.

Cannock Chase Weirdness: New Book

If you're interested in the mysteries of Britain's Cannock Chase (and there are a lot of them!) check out the forthcoming book from Lee Brickley: UFOs, Werewolves & The Pig-Man: Exposing England's Strangest Location: Cannock Chase .

Here's what Lee has to say:

"The last few months have been incredibly busy for me, I've written, edited and formatted my first book which I can now announce will be published on July 22nd . So, I thought it was about time for me to release the eye-catching front cover, designed by my good friend David Reeves . I really can't thank David enough for his time and effort – cheers mate.

 "As one chapter of my life draws to it's inevitable close I feel endlessly optimistic about whatever the future holds. Writing a book is no easy task, but the entire process has been a total pleasure for me. I'd like to take some time out to thank all the people who have offered their help and support. So a massive thank you to Nick Redfern , Brad Steiger , Timothy Green Beckley , Tim Swartz , Colin Hall , and perhaps most importantly: the people of Cannock Chase for sharing their stories, without you this book would never have been written."  And here's the rest of Lee's post . As someone who has written about the Cannock Chase in my own books, this is a new release I'm definitely looking forward to reading!
