In 1977, the clearest photograph of the Loch Ness monster ever taken was revealed in the Daily Mirror. A color photograph of a long neck, rising up out of the water, mouth open, rocked the Fortean world. But as strange and compelling as the photograph was, the photographer himself was on a whole other level. Behind the camera was a hard-drinking bohemian artist, a self-proclaimed magician who billed himself as the “Wizard of the West.” He claimed his occult skills had enabled him to summon Nessie, among other monsters, and he did so with the help of a cabal of witches.
The weird life of the Wizard known as Tony Doc Shiels, and his encounters with a host of lake monsters, witch covens and winged beasts, left an indelible mark on the world of cryptozoology. While his encounters may be of dubious authenticity, Doc Sheils is nevertheless one of the most influential Fortean figures.

When we talk about Sasquatch, theoretically, we’re talking about a living animal. Because of this, the topic of Sasquatch biology and behavior is a cornerstone of the research. If we can figure out how these creatures deal with the world around them, we can get a better understanding of their existence, and have a better chance of being able to actually catch one, either of camera or in a trap.

Nestled off the southern coast of Nova Scotia is a small, tree covered island with a bottomless mystery.

If the rumors and legends are true, a vast fortune lies buried under the island, sealed off in a complex maze of booby-trapped tunnels.
