As Nazi sympathizers muddy the waters with their own insane theories, modern journalist Igor Witkowski...

In the closing days of World War II, the remaining Nazi scientists and engineers set to work on a last-ditch effort: a weapon that could reshape the end of the war. Dubbed the “die glocke” or “the bell,” it was the ultimate “wunderwaffe” or wonder weapon. Some claimed it was an antigravity aircraft, designed to outmaneuver the Allies’ fighter planes. Others claimed it was a time machine, and Hitle...

In the late 1980s, a series of polaroid photos hit the Florida papers, allegedly showing some of the clearest UFOs ever.

Even today, despite proof that the photos are fak...

In 1977, the clearest photograph of the Loch Ness monster ever taken was revealed in the Daily Mirror. A color photograph of a long neck, rising up out of the water, mouth open, rocked the Fortean world.

Behind the camera was a hard-drinking bohemian artist, a self-proclaimed magician who bill...

When we think of vampires, we tend to think of the classic movie depictions: the caped, pointy-toothed, dapper man in the crumbling mansion. They’re gothic villains, things out of romance novels and classical literature. The idea of fanged monsters running around and sucking the blood of hapless victims feels quaint and out of place in our modern, scientific world.  Which is why it’s so strange th...
