The use of dolls in human civilisation goes back to some of the earliest graves and shrines we've discovered around the world regardless of the cultures we are finally uncovering.

In her brand new book, Dollcraft, Patti Negri dives into all aspects of dolls, from how to make your own magickal poppets and how to identify and care for haunted dolls and shares some of the craft with us along with a couple of encounters with rather unusual dolls. 

The book can be found here:

I'm delighted to welcome the director of the Centre for Fortean Zoology, Jonathan Downes to the show.

A lifelong love of strange animals and a chance meeting with Doc Shiels at the Fortean Times Unconvention saw the CFZ born and sent Jon on a lifetime of high strangeness, international exhibitions and speaking with thousands of people who have experienced and seen creatures that allegedly do not exist.

You can find the CFZ here:

In his latest book, Maxim Furek, a former psychologist and rock journalist, delves into the intriguing world of Bigfoot synchronicity, embracing interdimensional theories, mass hallucinations, and Jung's collective unconscious.

Furek's dedication to the subject is evident in the hundreds of accounts from researchers who strive to answer the question, "If it's not flesh and blood, then what is it?" This question forms the heart of the author's evocative thesis as he tirelessly scours American and Canadian records for evidence of this elusive cryptid.

An alleged haunted road that proved to be a disappointment somehow led Trey Hudson and his team of investigators to stumble across an area of land that perplexed and intrigued them.

This location, known as "The Meadow" quickly began to reveal some of its secrets and over the best part of the last decade, the team have recorded, reported and experiences numerous incidents of high strangeness, communications and encounters with all all manner of fortean enigmas.

Trey shares some of the experiences he and his team have had over that period as we go in search of The Meadow Project.

Lake Superior has always had a magnetic power through the history of life in North America, drawing people to its shores and on its waves for millennia and this continue more so in the modern age.

It would seem that it seems that the Lake even holds sway over those of a Fortean nature too, with strange creatures seen in its depths, mysterious disappearances, UFO sightings by the bucket load and haunted locations all around its shores.

In his brand new book, Supernatural Lake Superior, our friend Chad Lewis takes us on a trip to some of the area's most notable cases, accounts and lighthouse on the hunt for the strange!
