    Super Weapons

    Story One – Evil Under the Ice In the aftermath of World War Two, the victorious Allied nations despatched numerous military expeditions into the Antarctic region. Did these battleships weigh anchor in the name of science and exploration, or did they set sail in search of something far more sinister? An evil that dwelt under the ice. Story Two – The New York Nuke From solar cannons to time-travelling armies, there are few areas of science fiction which were not inspired in some way by Hitler’s Wonder Weapons programme. In the majority of cases, these outlandish proposals rarely made it off the drawing board. But there is concerning evidence that the Third Reich may have come uncomfortably close to deploying nuclear weapons on American soil.

  3. The Bigfoot and the Wendigo

    6 NOV

    The Bigfoot and the Wendigo

    Story One – The Beast of Bolam Lake In the northernmost region of England, there lies a small, unremarkable lake. Formerly known as Bolam Bog, it is part of a 65-hectare park teeming with deer and red squirrels. But some claim that there’s something else here as well – something far more dangerous. Since the 1990s, dozens of visitors to the area have reported seeing a tall, hairy creature with large fangs and glowing red eyes. Is it possible that the wilds of Northumberland are indeed haunted by the Beast of Bolam Lake? Story Two – Shadow of the Wendigo In the remote northern parts of the United States and Canada, whispers speak of an ancient presence that stalks the forests. Native tribes say it has always been there – a malevolent, cannibalistic beast with an insatiable desire for human flesh. But more recent accounts suggest that this entity’s influence might extend beyond the wilderness. Is it possible that even urban areas are no longer safe from the shadow of the Wendigo?

    The Dyatlov Pass Incident – The Theories

    Part Three What started out as a search and rescue effort soon turned into a serious investigation into the tragic and untimely deaths of nine young souls. There were many aspects of the case which were highly mysterious and seemed to suggest some sort of foul play. But by who? Or what? In the concluding part of our Dyatlov Pass series, we examine the theories surrounding what happened on that fateful night back in February of 1959 - theories which range from the mundane to the truly extreme.

    The Dyatlov Pass Incident – The Bodies

    Part Two After discovering the collapsed tent of the Dyatlov group, rescuers searched in vain for the missing hikers, hoping they were braving out the harsh Siberian winter in a cave or abandoned hut. The truth, however, was far more gruesome. Only metres away from the abandoned campsite, the bodies of their friends lay silently beneath the pristine snow, each having suffered a multitude of mysterious injuries.

    Eastern Horrors

    Story One – The Monkey Man of Delhi Urban legends exist around the world. Mostly, they keep us from parking in dark places at night, or from talking to creepy kids with dark-coloured eyes. But what happens when an urban legend goes viral, causing so much panic that people begin to die because of it? That’s precisely what happened in India in 2001, when residents reported some 350 terrifying encounters with what would eventually become known as the Monkey Man of Delhi. Story Two – The Dread of the Djinn Many ancient texts speak of supernatural beings representing the forces of good and evil. However, not all of these entities fit quite so neatly into such categories. For centuries, people in the Arabic world have spoken of creatures who bring fortune and pain in equal measure. But despite the age of these legends, recent reports from the Near East seem to indicate that even our modern world is subject to the dread of the Djinn.

    Bodies

    Story One – The Strange Death of Zygmund Adamski In June 1980, a man was found dead in a coal yard more than 20 miles from his home with suspicious burns to his neck and shoulders. Who—or what—could have been responsible? Story Two – The Body on the Reservoir In 1988, the mutilated body of a middle-aged man was found on the banks of an artificial lake in Brazil. Listed as one of the most disturbing deaths of a human being ever recorded, the question is who or what left the body on the reservoir?
