Although he is best-known for his extensive cryptozoological
researches and publications, Dr Karl Shuker has also investigated a
very diverse range of other anomalies and unexplained phenomena,
both in the literature and in the field. Travelling the world in
search of mysteries and marvels of every kind, Dr Shuker has
climbed the volcanic slopes of Easter Island on the trail of moai
and manbirds, he has traversed the Theban necropolis of Egypt's
West Bank in search of a singing Colossus and the head of
Ozymandias, he has journeyed to Woolpit in the footsteps of its
mystifying Green Children, and to Niagara on the lookout for its
long-lost winged cat. Whether it be flying over the Bermuda
Triangle (four times ), inspecting cropfield circles in
Buckinghamshire, questing for mermaids and unicorns, gazing in awe
at a putative living dinosaur emblazoned upon the magnificent
Ishtar Gate of Babylon's King Nebuchadnezzar, revealing a bizarre
yet hitherto-undocumented bat-winged monster encountered in the
heartland of Kent, uncovering an anachronistic Cambodian stegosaur
at Angkor Wat, peering in hope across the dark waters of Loch Ness
and the monster-haunted lakes of Iceland, seeking resurrected
avifauna in New Zealand, finding solace in the stark majesty of
Stonehenge and the holy grandeur of Lourdes, charting the
preternatural entities of Senegambia's forests or Australia's
Dreamtime, tracking elusive black panthers on Exmoor, or unmasking
serpent-necked panthers on an enigmatic artefact from the ancient
Middle East, if there are mysteries to be investigated, Dr Shuker
is in hot pursuit. Now, compiled here for the very first time, are
some of the extraordinary cases that he has re-examined or
personally explored down through the years - from sky beasts and
reptoids, statues that weep, bleed, and even come to life,
vanishing planets and invisible saints, frog rain and angel hair,
and the world's weirdest ghosts and aliens, to a chiming tower of
porcelain and a talking head of brass, spooklights and foo
fighters, Herne the Hunter and photographed thought-forms, the
chirping pyramid of Quetzalcoatl, magical mirrii dogs Down Under,
and the most comprehensive study ever published of winged cats in
which he successfully unveils their long-debated cryptic identity.
All of that, and much more, await you inside this arcane archive of
inexplicabilia, dubitanda, and mirabilia or, as we prefer to call
it, Dr Shuker's Casebook.
