The Beast of Gévaudan – Wolf, Man…or Wolf-Man?

Posted by: Karl Shuker on August 24th, 2015

Beast-of-Gevaudan-1700s1a

Between June 1764 and June 1767, a hideous series of killings, as grisly as they were plentiful (somewhere around 80 to 113 human victims, plus many injured survivors), occurred in a village-speckled district of Lozère, southeastern France, called Gévaudan. Their perpetrator became known as the Beast of Gévaudan, but more than two centuries of speculation have failed to stem the controversy regarding its precise identity. Just what was the Beast of Gévaudan? An animal? A man? Or something more?

Profiling the Russian Goat-Sucker

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on August 22nd, 2015

My new book, Chupacabra Road Trip, focuses primarily on my expeditions to seek out the legendary chupacabra across Puerto Rico, the United States, and Mexico, and from 2004 to the present day. As I also note in the book, however, there is no shortage of reports of the Goat-Sucker from Russia – an issue that often gets eclipsed by the exploits of the far more famous Puerto Rican original.

Regarding Lizard Man Captured on Camera Phone!

Posted by: Lyle Blackburn on August 5th, 2015

The tale of the Bishopville Lizard Man has had its ups and downs over the years, ranging between credible eyewitness accounts to silly news reports.

The photo included in the recent ABC news article is one such low point, as it appears to be some sort of costume or miniature model rather than a real creature.

Profiling “The Bigfoot Book”

Posted by: Nick Redfern on July 29th, 2015

Bigfoot: it’s a controversy-filled word that is instantly recognizable to just about one and all. And, regardless of whether one is a true believer, an open-minded skeptic, a definitive non-believer, or a semi-interested observer of the controversy, pretty much everyone knows what the word implies and describes: a large, hair-covered, ape-style animal that is said to roam, and lurk within, the mysterious, forested wilds of the United States.

Reviewing Dragons in Zoology, Cryptozoology, and Culture

Posted by: Karl Shuker on July 19th, 2015

After extensive research, I finally wrote my long-planned second dragons book – entitled Dragons in Zoology, Cryptozoology, and Culture – and saw it published in 2013 by Coachwhip Publications of Greenville, Ohio. It constitutes one of the most comprehensive dragon-themed factual books ever published, is sumptuously illustrated throughout in full colour, and very recently I was delighted to see not one but two positive, encouraging reviews of it.
