Christmas time is truly the darkest and creepiest time of the year filled with devilish creatures lurking in the shadows waiting to get us. Best known is the Krampus who has been the subject of films and songs. There was a time in the late 1800s when people sent Krampus cards, not holiday greetings. There are other violent and dangerous monsters from all over northern climes who have been hunting naughty children for centuries. From shapeshifters to mountain trolls, to elves, to heavy-handed cohorts of Saint Nicholas, the Christmas holiday has been filled with ghosts and monsters ready to dole out punishment to those who need it. The Fright Before Christmas will delve into the folklore of Krampus and his friends with the elf-like Tomten and the goblinesque Karakoncolas. The Belsnickel is ready to hit us with his switch of sticks and Gryla may drag you back to her mountain lair. And watch out for the Yule Cat ready to pounce! These are just a few of the yuletide beasties coming for us in The Fright Before Christmas in the hope they can save us from ourselves. The folklore roots of Christmas under its many other guises (Yule, the Winter Solstice, Saturnalia) is examined in a different, darker light. The Winter Solstice is a time to be afraid. It's the shortest day of the year. The longest night. In some parts of the world, the sun doesn't rise at all. It's dark, and we have to wonder if the sun will ever come back at all. Christmas has always been creepy and with The Fright Before Christmas you'll see the other side. This is a book for everyone who loves a little darkness around the holidays.

"Explore the evidence of psychic powers and learn the skills of remote viewing from the masters for yourself. Russell Targ has been successfully teaching people how to get in touch with their psychic abilities for more than fifty years. This began in 1972 when he cofounded the CIA sponsored ESP research program at Stanford Research Institute. The program described a secret Russian weapons factory in Siberia, identified the ring-leader of the Patty Hearst kidnapping, and located several kidnapped US officials, including the ambassador to Iran. The founders also trained six army intelligence officers to create an army psychic corps that became known as Star Gate, which provided useful information until 1995. Third Eye Spies will introduce the reader to the most successful and gifted remote viewers in the world, some of whom had never done anything like this before, along with the evidence of their psychic abilities. Remote viewing is the opportunity to describe and experience objects and events in the distance, past, and future. Targ shares the simple techniques the masters of remote viewing used to be able to expand your mind's eye beyond your physical location. Misconceptions have abounded that ESP is weak and unreliable. On the contrary, in the SRI laboratory experiments and classified operational tasks, ESP was found to be surprisingly reliable, accurate, and useful. The proof for ESP is so strong, it would be statistically unreasonable to deny it. In data from laboratories all over the world, we have seen that the accuracy and reliability of remote viewing is not in any way degraded by distance. With Third Eye Spies, you will be able to step beyond the boundaries of your physical body and learn to live with psychic abilities"--

"The Americas have had native groups living there for more than 10,000 years, but Columbus was surely not their first visitors. This book covers a range of cultures who had seemingly been visiting the Americas since long before Columbus. Evidence is explored of potential Roman and Phoenician shipwrecks off the coast of South America through to Celtic and Norse exploration of Northern America. With source materials dating back through millennia, including very recent finds, this book will induce the reader to think about a side of history still readily dismissed by some"--

Throughout history, folklore and mystery, tales have circulated of massive stones being moved through the air effortlessly through the air seemingly sound. Bizarre? Well, yes, it is. That doesn't take away the fact that sound was, and still remains, the key to the construction of the Pyramids of Egypt, Stonehenge, the stone figures of Easter Island, and the massive stones at Baalbek, Lebanon. Were they the work of ancient humans, of equally ancient extra-terrestrials, or of both?HOW ANTIGRAVITY BUILT THE PYRAMIDS delves into such stories and theories as:· A 9th century story of a mysterious papyrus with the power to move large stones at the Giza Necropolis· The Mayan story of the construction of the Pyramid of the Magician said to be overseen by small humanoid who could whistle large stones into place· Native American stories of ancient priests being back to make stones lightRedfern argues it was not literally music and whistling that somehow raised stones the weights of dozens of modern-day cars into the skies above. Such a thing is not possible. But music and whistling have one thing in common: sound. Acoustics. Almost certainly, acoustic levitation was at the heart of these incredible feats.No doubt, and as the centuries passed, the truth of the science behind acoustic levitation was lost and forgotten—and distorted, too—with little more left than fanciful tales of music, whistles, curious papyrus, and strange metal rods that could achieve incredible feats in the air. Today, we are finally starting to get a grasp on this incredible technology, a technology that may have been the work of ancient humans, aliens from faraway worlds – or, perhaps, a combination of the two.
