Exo-politics is on the D- List for some UFO researchers; the poseurs to UFO research and genuine UFO researchers alike. The question is, why? What is the issue they have with exo-politics? It's bizarre to think we can research and investigate -- move towards the Big UFO Answer -- while at the same time utterly ignoring the idea of actually meeting with extraterrestrials…
Imaginal perception: A window into the unexplained
For a period of 18 months starting in 2002, I had a series of strange, almost mystical experiences with four beings that to all intents and purposes, came from another world. Words can never fully do justice to the experience however I'll try to briefly outline events here for the purposes of this essay. As someone who has always had a certain amount of interaction with both off world and earth based energies, I'm no stranger to supernatural experiences, but these three encounters were quite different from the run of the mill 'shadow person' type of visitor that many of us see…
1934's murderous monster marsupial
Sometimes the strangest things you hear about in cryptozoology catch up with physical evidence years later. Take, for instance, Killer Kangaroos. No, I'm not talking about the Mystery Kangaroos that punched out the Chicago police in the 1970s. I'm thinking, instead, about the Killer Kangaroo of 1934…
UFOs: true believers and truth seekers conference begins

Official: Jack the Ripper identified
Private handwritten notes by the man who led the hunt for Jack the Ripper naming the chief suspect were given to Scotland Yard's Black Museum yesterday. Chief Inspector Donald Swanson kept quiet for years but in retirement, frustrated that the murderer had escaped justice, could not resist scribbling notes in the margin of his boss's memoirs, naming the man that they both believed had become the world's most famous serial killer…
No telling what an emu will do
Emu sightings are rare, except Thursday afternoon, in Connecticut. In the space of about two hours, emus - probably farmyard escapees - were spotted in Middletown and about 40 miles northwest in Simsbury…
Who is haunting the Red Dog?
When Anita Goodrich walked into the Red Dog Tavern last Sunday morning at 2:30 a.m., she immediately sensed the presence of a spirit. Without any prior knowledge of the pub's history, she accurately named him. "She knew he was important to the bar," explains her mother, Dee Freedman. "We get the feeling he's hanging around because that's a place that was a comfort to him and that he was involved in." Sunday marked The Hauntings Research Group's second visit to the historic Hunter Street West pub. The team arrived with video cameras, a baby monitor and audio recorders…
Hunt for Gambia's mythical dragon
A team of UK dragon-hunters is on an expedition in The Gambia to track down a mysterious creature known locally as the "Ninki-nanka". Believed to live in swamps, the ninki-nanka appears in the folklore of many parts of West Africa. It is described as having a horse-like face, a long body with mirror-like scales and a crest of skin on its head. Team leader Richard Freeman told the BBC, evidence so far was sketchy as most people died soon after seeing it…

UFO, Venus or something else?
In the night sky southwest of Vail, an unidentified flying object brightly twinkled green, red and blue. Brent Kelley watched the object from his Vail Valley Drive residence and called the Vail Police Department. Nobody - including Kelley, three officers and a dispatcher - knew what they saw around 9:30 p.m. on April 6, 1978. What they did see made it's way into a report recently unearthed at the police department…
