100 Strangest Mysteries



Were the Amityville hauntings cynical media manipulation? Is levitation possible? Has Earth been visited by UFOs from other realms? All these questions, and more, are considered in 100 Strangest Mysteries. Paranormal investigator Matt Lamy documents in detail the numerous phenomena and events which can be termed ‘mysterious’ and cannot be dismissed as mere hysteria or wild imaginings.

Divided into themed sections, the book includes:

* The Beast of Bodmin — whether it is an escaped exotic pet, a feral cat or something more sinister, it certainly causes concern for inhabitants of its local area
* Area 51 — conspiracy theorists believe it is a centre for the U.S. government’s investigations into UFO activity, whilst others consider it to be ‘only’ a military air base
* Ley lines and other energy fields — are they sacred sites going back thousands of years or modern New Age notions?
* The Holy Grail — dismissed by organized religion, thought by some to have been a chalice brought to Britain by Joseph, many consider it to be nothing more than a romantic Arthurian legend

Matt Lamy was born on the Channel Island of Jersey where he attended Victoria College. It was while studying for a degree in journalism at Sheffield University on the UK mainland that he developed an interest in the paranormal, filing reports on the nearby Peak District’s ghost planes, earth lights and hauntings. After completing his degree he moved to London where he worked as a freelance journalist until taking up a full-time position with a sports magazine. 100 Strangest Mysteries is his first book.
