Book
Abstract: Alien abductions, bleeding trees, crop circles, phantom funerals and mysterious showers of fish all feature in this uniquely wide-ranging and balanced guide to unexplained phenomena. Many carefully researched entries shed light on such diverse and controversial subjects as cryptozoology, folklore, fringe science, ghosts, spiritualism, UFOs and witchcraft. Fascinating, illuminating and highly readable, Chambers Dictionary of the Unexplained is an essential reference for anyone interested in exploring the boundary between the everyday and the extraordinary.
