Book Description
What’s hiding in the woods? Here is the definitive account of today’s nationwide sightings of upright, canine creatures – which resemble traditional werewolves – and a thorough exploration of the nature and possible origins of the mysterious beast. “She has the ability to send chills up and down your spine.” —Brad Steiger, author of Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places “If you thought the likes of The Wolfman, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and Underworld had no basis in fact, it's time to think again!” —Nick Redfern, author of There's Something in the Woods “Real Wolfmen is a riveting work of amazing scope and depth. You’ll be hooked from the first page.”--Rosemary Ellen Guiley, author of The Encyclopedia of Vampires and Werewolves The U.S. has been invaded – if many dozens of eyewitnesses are to be believed – by upright, canine creatures that look like traditional werewolves and act as if they own our woods, fields, and highways. Sightings from coast to coast dating back to the 1930s compel us to ask exactly what these beasts are, and what they want. Researcher, author and newspaper reporter Linda S. Godfrey has been tracking the manwolf since the early 1990. In Real Wolfmen she presents the only large-scale cataloguing and investigation of reports of modern sightings of anomalous, upright canids. First-person accounts from Godfrey’s witnesses – who have encountered these creatures everywhere from outside their car windows to face-to-face on a late night stroll – describe the same human-sized canines: They are able to walk upright and hold food in their paws, interact fearlessly with humans, and suddenly and mysteriously disappear. Godfrey explores the most compelling cases from the modern history of such sightings, along with the latest reports, and undertakes a thorough exploration of the nature and possible origins of the creature.

Werewolves, Wolves and the Gothic
Author:
Publisher: University of Wales Press
ISBN: 1786831031
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Wolves lope across Gothic imagination. Signs of a pure animality opposed to humanity, in the figure of the werewolf they become liminal creatures that move between the human and the animal. Werewolves function as a site for exploring complex anxieties of difference – of gender, class, race, space, nation or sexuality – but the imaginative and ideological uses of wolves also reflect back on the lives of material animals, long persecuted in their declining habitats across the world. Werewolves therefore raise unsettling questions about the intersection of the real and the imaginary, the instability of human identities and the worldliness and political weight of the Gothic. This is the first volume concerned with the appearance of werewolves and wolves in literary and cultural texts from the mid-nineteenth century to the present. Drawing on representations of werewolves and wolves in literature, film, television and visual culture, the essays investigate the key texts of the lycanthropic canon alongside lesser-known works from the 1890s to the present. The result is an innovative study that is both theoretically aware and historically nuanced, featuring an international list of established and emerging scholars based in Britain, Europe, North America and Australia.

My Search for Dogman

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
"'What the hell is a Dogman? That cannot be real!' This was my reaction when I first heard . . . [a] podcast back in October of 2018. Believe me, I actually laughed for several weeks when the topic of Dogman crossed my mind. It was that unbelievable to me. So . . . What is a Dogman? Is it real? There is no clear definition of a Dogman. Wikipedia does not even directly reference it, although there are pages for Werewolf, Beast of Bray Road, and Michigan Dogman. My best definition is that a Dogman is essentially a creature, flesh and blood and/or spiritual - depending on the interpretation, which looks like a wolf or dog, can walk on two legs like a man, is scary, and can be dangerous as Hell. Think: Lon Chaney, Jr. in 'The Wolf Man' (1941) or Hugh Jackman in 'Van Helsing' (2004). Either way, monsters are apparently real." (From Chapter I) Dogman is nature's greatest cryptid, and this work examines why. Are you ready to take the journey with me?

Ultraterrestrial Contact

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Ultraterrestrial Contact investigates the most extreme and bizarre UFO reports—the cases that most UFO investigators are afraid to tackle—and presents a radical new quantum approach to understanding the contact phenomenon. When Philip Imbrogno collaborated with famed UFO researcher Dr. J. Allen Hynek on Night Siege, Dr. Hynek requested that the more sensational cases of "high strangeness"—claims of contact with not only alien intelligence, but also demons, djinn, and otherdimensional beings—remain unpublished. Hynek thought the reports would detract from the credibility of the entire extraterrestrial investigation field. This book reveals, for the first time, the details of these controversial reports and presents Imbrogno's startling scientific conclusions from his thirty years of research into the alien contact phenomenon.
