Mysteries and Monsters

Atlantis Through Time is the first book to chart the fascinating cultural history of Atlantis from its origin in Plato's dialogues to its strange and compelling rebirths in pop culture, occultism, and fantasy. Rather than treating Atlantis as either hoax or truth, Sian Ingham takes the myth on its own imaginative terms, showing how different generations have used the legend to reflect their hopes, fears, and obsessions. Sian joins me to look in to some of the most notorious characters to be drawn to the Atlantean myth, its problematic origin story and why this legend still draws people to it three millenniums on! Sian's book can be found here: Thanks to Sian for joining me this week.

It's a warm welcome back to the Fortean Times dynamic television reviewing duo, Stu Neville and Ruth Morris as we dive in to the strange and often frustrating world of Fortean Television. What's been on their must watch, which shows seem to be repackaged boring old cases and which show seems to contradict itself reporting on a case they've already solved several years ago and where has this mysterious Bigfoot documentary disappeared to?

Noted expert of the strange Jeff Belanger is your guide to all that’s local and strange as he joins me to discuss his new book, "Wicked Strange", a journey and a celebration of all the things that make New England like no other place on earth. In a time when so much of the world is becoming homogenized—as big-box stores and chain restaurants move in and so many communities lose their identity—we still have these legends. They belong to specific towns and streets. These are stories locals will share with you . . . if they trust you.

After ten books, it's finally the end of the saurian trail. Newspapers of the Old West frequently chronicled encounters with large, reptilian creatures that sound suspiciously like remnant dinosaurs and which align with some modern-day cryptid encounters. This volume gets down to the nitty-gritty to explore which of those stories were true, revisiting classic cases like the Tombstone Thunderbird and its missing photograph with new information. Joining me to pick the bones of these tantalising old cases is our good friend John LeMay and we dive in to several of these strange encounters and the creatures people claimed to have met!

Adena: Mound Builders of the Ohio Valley is a richly detailed, accessible exploration of one of North America’s earliest mound-building societies. Drawing on archaeology, early surveys, and modern research, this book traces the rise of the Adena people from scattered Woodland communities into a tradition defined by monumental earthworks, long-distance exchange networks, and complex ceremonial life.

We catch up with Mike Familant, a Producer and Lead Investigator from New Jersey, as he recounts his journey in uncovering the truth about North America's most renowned cryptid, Bigfoot. Known by various names such as Sasquatch, Grassman, Skunk Ape, or Big Red Eye, this elusive bipedal hominid has been the focus of Mike's extensive research for over 15 years, during which he has gathered significant evidence from locations across the USA. Mike shares some of his experiences over the years as well as updating us since his last appearance on the show, which you can find here: Mike's YouTube channel is here: His website is here: Thanks to Mike for joining me once again!

When a loved one goes missing, families find themselves in a terrible position. They are overcome with worry and stress. Their life as they once lived has completely changed forever. After filing reports with police and frantically searching for their loved one, a sort of shell-shocked state sets in as time goes by and the investigation goes colder. Joining me to discuss their work as part of the Private Investigators for the Missing are the hosts of Crawlspace, Missing and Empty Frames, Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstiena and how this confounding, confusion and frightening situation can effect anyone at anytime. With too many people using missing people to promote their own agendas, Tim and Lance's work is a refreshing antidote to the individuals using the missing to elevate their own egos and the work of PIFTM in this field has been outstanding. This is the real Missing 911. You can find their shows here: Private Investigations for the Missing can be found here: A big thank you to Tim and Lance for joining me this episode.

Are ETs healing humans?In his landmark book, The Healing Power of UFOs, leading UFO researcher, Preston Dennett, presents a fascinating compilation of more than 300 cases of people who have been healed by extraterrestrials.

In September 1961, an incident occurred that still resonates throughout Ufology to this day and that is of course the Betty and Barney Hill incident. What seemed like a regular journey home turned into an event that confounded their friends and family. Joining me to discuss the legacy of the case and the additional information and evidence the case provided is the wonderful Kathleen Marden, niece of Betty and Barney Hill and the protector of their estate. Kathleen joins me to discuss having a front row seat to the first reported alien abduction case in the USA and the ramifications that night had for all the family, not just Betty and Barney.

We return to the world of Cryptids this episode as I welcome author, Bigfoot enthusiast, experiencer and host of the brilliant Sasquatch Odyssey Brian King-Sharp to the show. Brian had a childhood encounter with something that escorted him out of the woods and despite a professional respite when serving as a Police Officer, the lure of Bigfoot has pulled him back to the subject. His show is a wonderful repository of Bigfoot witnesses sharing their experiences in the safe space Brian has created to enable people to talk without fear of ridicule and we dive in to his experiences and the subject with gusto!

Kevin grew up in Wisconsin and has always had a fascination with Sasquatch, which has led him to go on many expeditions across the country seeking the great mystery.

Back in 2020, I had an opportunity to speak with renowned Ufologist Peter Robbins, but once the interview had concluded, when I went to find the file, it was seemingly corrupted. That was until last weekend, when searching for something else, I stumbled across the actual edited show that I had done, and clearly misfiled back in October 2020. So as a Christmas bonus for you all, here is that lost interview as Peter talks about he and his sisters experience as children, his love of art and literature, his friendship with Budd Hopkins and the infamous Manhattan Abduction Case with Linda Napolitano who sadly passed away recently. This episode is dedicated to Linda's memory and courage.

Ruth Roper Wylde's databases have been mentioned on our previous converstations over the years, but we've never discussed some of the trends, facts and peculiarities of the date Ruth has collated. In the Paranormal community, certain cliches, tropes and bad information often gets trotted out. Nobody sees modern ghosts, all Black Dog encounters are frightening, nobody sees the Fae anymore and so on. We dive in to some of these and find out that there is a lot more to the data than badly researched tropes and those who use them suggest. Ruth's latest book can be found here: If you have an encounter or experience you'd like to share with Ruth, you can email her at ruthroperwylde@gmail.com Thank you as always to Ruth for joining me!
