    Mysterious Photos—Assessments, Please!

    Hello! It's been a while since I've posted here, but an unnerving incident tonight has brought me here seeking answers. I'm posting this in General Forteana for lack of knowing where to put it, as I have no idea what the mysterious photos might have captured at all, but please move it to a more...

    Probably Not A UFO!

    I often see Spitfires here because I'm not far from the Battle of Britain memorial and there are businesses who provide flights over it (for a not-inconsiderable sum). I took some photos of one this morning and a yellow sphere appeared in one picture. Naturally I saw nothing at the time. The...

    Welsh River Deity

    I was looking through a copy of FT earlier and came across the incident with Dave Newman who took the photo in the river Ystwyth of the water deity. Does anyone have any follow-up on this article, can't find anything online (so far) was this just another Halloween prank? (Article excerpt from...

    Deceptive Perspective

    I'd be most grateful if somebody could explain clearly what this photograph shows. I am unable to distinguish which things seem large because they are near and which appear small beause they are farther away. I know only that it's 'a hotel' but my mind keeps telling me it's a miniature set. I'm...

    The Bibliophilia Thread

    I don't usually collect children's books (you wouldn't believe some of the prices--children tend to shred and deface, and rarity equals value), but as an admirer of C. F. Tunnicliffe's stunning depictions of nature I had to pick this up when I saw a 1959 First Edition in near-mint condition (was...

    Interesting Photo I've Found

    I bought a UFO book from 'Strands' (in Cromer) charity shop for 20p on the 14th of this month. The only reason I bought the book was because of a photo that had been put inside it showing what looks like a glowing UFO. Of course, it's just as likely to have been faked by someone, maybe a double...

    Pareidolia

    Seeing anthropomorphic / anthropogenic imagery in random objects. The face of Jesus on a piece of toast; the man in the moon; the face on mars ~ that type of thing. This one I took during a rare configuration of Saturn Venus and the waxing gibous moon, probably in 2008. It made me feel sort of...

    Ghost Photos On 80s Kids Show Wide Awake Club

    Remember the Wide Awake Club that was on Saturday mornings from the 80s until the early 90s? I remember that in around 1989 they had a guest who was a paranormal expert (I can't remember who it was - it definately wasn't Maurice Grosse though) who showed three ghost photos. The strange thing...

    Mine has to be this one In 1982, photographer Chris Brackley took a photograph of the interior of London's St. Botolph's Church, but never expected what would appear on the film. High in the church's loft, seen in the upper right-hand corner of his photograph, is the transparent form of what...

    The Pictures On The Wall

    I am an avid hunter, alway have been. When I was younger and living in my parents home (which was thought to have my deceased grandfather wondering around) I had several 8x10 hunting photos, in frames, hanging on the wall above my bed. One morning I awoke to find four or five of the...

    Ilkley Moor Alien Photo (Yorkshire; December 1987)

    Where do people stand on this picture? The reason I ask is that I first saw it reproduced in a book called "Fairies: Real Encounters with Little People" as a possible fairy sighting... so I was surprised to see it known to others in the context of space alien. Here is a link to the pix and...

    Psychic / Medium Levitation Photos (Colin Evans: London, 1938)

    Often included in Believe It or Not type books and occult picture anthologies are photos of the medium Colin Evans levitating at a public meeting in North London in 1938. Some sources say they are infra-red shots. Certainly the audience members are absorbed in their own thoughts. Even the...
