Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of the controversial bestseller Brain Trust brings his scientific expertise to the chilling true story of unexplained phenomena on Utah's Skinwalker Ranch -- and challenges us with a new vision of reality. For more than fifty years, the bizarre events at a remote Utah ranch have ranged from the perplexing to the wholly terrifying. Vanishing and mutilated cattle. Unidentified Flying Objects. The appearance of huge, otherworldly creatures. Invisible objects emitting magnetic fields with the power to spark a cattle stampede. Flying orbs of light with dazzling maneuverability and lethal consequences. For one family, life on the Skinwalker Ranch had become a life under siege by an unknown enemy or enemies. Nothing else could explain the horrors that surrounded them -- perhaps science could. Leading a first-class team of research scientists on a disturbing odyssey into the unknown, Colm Kelleher spent hundreds of days and nights on the Skinwalker property and experienced firsthand many of its haunting mysteries. With investigative reporter George Knapp -- the only journalist allowed to witness and document the team's work -- Kelleher chronicles in superb detail the spectacular happenings the team observed personally, and the theories of modern physics behind the phenomena. Far from the coldly detached findings one might expect, their conclusions are utterly hair-raising in their implications. Opening a door to the unseen world around us, Hunt for the Skinwalker is a clarion call to expand our vision far beyond what we know.
Download or read book Tales of the Skinwalker written by Ryan Skinner and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Skinwalker is deeply embedded in the Native American lore of the peoples indigenous to the Four Corners of the American Southwest. Though contemporary archaeologists and anthropologists have uncovered significant evidence of its presence in the art of the ancient peoples which inhabited the Great Basin and surrounding lands prior to the tribes which were to follow, there is no explanation for its origin-beyond an alternate plane or spirit world-or its eventual, and temporary, disappearance. Regardless, history documents that the Skinwalker was again drawn forth by the Shaman of the Navajo to avenge the cruelty of their enemy, the Ute. To this day, the Skinwalker remains among us, haunting a corridor among the hills and canyons known as the Path of the Skinwalker. Here in these pages is a collection of actual modern Skinwalker encounters told by those who came face to face with this frightening and supernatural being.

Download or read book American Myths Legends and Tall Tales 3 volumes written by Christopher R. Fee and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 1842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating survey of the entire history of tall tales, folklore, and mythology in the United States from earliest times to the present, including stories and myths from the modern era that have become an essential part of contemporary popular culture. Folklore has been a part of American culture for as long as humans have inhabited North America, and increasingly formed an intrinsic part of American culture as diverse peoples from Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania arrived. In modern times, folklore and tall tales experienced a rejuvenation with the emergence of urban legends and the growing popularity of science fiction and conspiracy theories, with mass media such as comic books, television, and films contributing to the retelling of old myths. This multi-volume encyclopedia will teach readers the central myths and legends that have formed American culture since its earliest years of settlement. Its entries provide a fascinating glimpse into the collective American imagination over the past 400 years through the stories that have shaped it. Organized alphabetically, the coverage includes Native American creation myths, "tall tales" like George Washington chopping down his father's cherry tree and the adventures of "King of the Wild Frontier" Davy Crockett, through to today's "urban myths." Each entry explains the myth or legend and its importance and provides detailed information about the people and events involved. Each entry also includes a short bibliography that will direct students or interested general readers toward other sources for further investigation. Special attention is paid to African American folklore, Asian American folklore, and the folklore of other traditions that are often overlooked or marginalized in other studies of the topic.

Download or read book The Muledeer Chronicles written by Erick Rhetts and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-16 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to writing and publishing LOST ON SKINWALKER RANCH, the story of a security guard by the name of Riley working on the property which lends its name to the title, I had never heard of Skinwalkers; and if I did, I assure you it was in no connection to the Native American lore associated with the Great Basin, but instead a movie starring Tommy Lee Jones, called THE MISSING. However, since that first book has been published and, thankfully, read by no few people, I have been receiving on a regular basis Skinwalker encounter stories from people living throughout the Great Basin and Four Corners areas. Most, although interesting and I believe authentic-in as much as the people who send them believe their experience to be real-are relatively short and devoid of much in the way of detail. This is not the case with the following story. THE MULEDEER CHRONICLES is derived from the journal of a man named Abrahm (pronounced Abraham) Muledeer, a member of the Northern Paiute and currently, I believe, still residing in the northern reaches of the state of Nevada. I'll leave that final determination up to you. He himself did not make his journal available to me. This was done by his son Obediah and after the disappearance of his father. He, however, did not send me the actual journals, but instead a combination of scanned pages, these via email, and Xerox copies via snail mail. I did what I could with the available material to tell the story as chronologically-and logically-as possible. If I have a complaint, it is not with the material, but its length: I wish it was longer. As for the story itself, it takes place primarily in the autumn of 1989, but extends-most unfortunately for Obediah-to the present day. On the surface it is a Skinwalker story. However, it is much more, delving into and providing a look into the alternate realm which exists between the lands of the Earth People and the celestial planes of the Holy People, and which is inhabited by immortal spirits who seek purpose through imposing themselves upon those who are without intervention defenseless against their wiles-we humans. I have chosen to tell the story through Obediah. It is, after all, his story.
