Book Description

Reveal the art of encoding desires into mystical symbols, leading practitioners from the rudimentary to the avant-garde. Discover the arcane lineage of sigil magic, tracing its tendrils through history's mystical underbelly. Master the craft with step-by-step guidance, honing your skills from basic sigil creation to weaving complex glyph arrays for long-term aspirations. Delve into the fusion of quantum mechanics, Kabbalistic teachings, and transpersonal psychology, transcending the traditional boundaries of sigilcraft. Uncover advanced activation techniques, secrets to embedding sigils in art and music, and methods for crafting sigils in digital and dream states. Navigate inner spaces with psychonautic sigils or delve into the intricacies of fractal sigils and alternate realities. This comprehensive guide delves into the mysteries of: · Giants of the Wild: Explore the dense forests where Bigfoot and Sasquatch are said to roam, and uncover the legends of the Yeti high in the Himalayas. · Bloodsuckers and Beasts: Learn about the fearsome Chupacabra, the eerie Moth man, and other cryptids that strike fear into the hearts of locals and livestock alike. · Shape-Shifters and Shadow Creatures: Discover the dark tales of werewolves, skin walkers, and shadow people—creatures that challenge our understanding of reality and identity. Whilst most enjoy the books a lot of them are fans of Bigfoot but don’t have any interest in other cryptids so I have taken all the Bigfoot Encounters from the cryptid encounters series and put them here into one book, plus there is bonus never before released encounters.

Book Description

Do ghosts exist? What about the Bigfoot, or Skinwalkers? And how will we ever know? Journalist Tea Krulos spent over a year traveling nationwide to meet individuals who have made it their life's passion to hunt down evidence of entities that they believe exist, but that others might shrug off as nothing more than myths, fairytales, or overactive imaginations. Follow along with Krulos as he joins these believers in the field, exploring haunted houses, trekking through creepy forests, and scanning skies and lakes as they collect data on the unknown—poltergeists, Chupacabras, Skunk Apes (Bigfoot's stinky cousins), and West Virginia's Mothman. Along the way, he meets a diverse cast of characters—true believers, skeptics, and hoaxers—from the credible to the quirky. And in the end, Krulos leaves it to the reader to decide: are these people tilting at supernatural windmills, or are they onto something?

Book Description

America's premier folk detective is back on the case, sniffing out those zany but dubious stories that "really happened" to a friend of your sister's boyfriend's accountant's mechanic. Jan Harold Brunvand—''Mr. Urban Legend" [Smithsonian]—tracks the most fabulous tales making today's cocktail-party circuit and shows why those stories that sound too good to be true probably are too good to be true. The eponymous episode—"The Baby Train"—sheds light on certain predawn activities that have linked unusually high birth rates to the whim of train schedule makers. Other stories offer a revealing peek behind the story of "The Exploding Bra," expose the embarrassing source of "The Hairdresser's Error," resurrect a "Failed Suicide" Buster Keaton would have died for, and show why adults are better off not bringing their comic book fantasies out of the closet. From "Superhero Hijinx" to "The Shocking Videotape" to "The Accidental Cannibal," The Baby Train uncovers the mysteries behind some of the bawdiest, goriest, funniest, most pyrotechnic urban legends yet.
