Magazine Overview

Title: OUTER LIMITS MAGAZINE
Issue: Issue 2
Volume: New Quarterly
Publication Date: August 1, 2016
Publisher: Outer Limits Magazine
Type: Free to read E-zine

This issue of Outer Limits Magazine, a quarterly publication focused on paranormal and UFO-related topics, presents a diverse range of articles. The cover prominently features headlines on "UFOs Indifference or Conspiracy" by Nick Pope, "The WOW! Signal: 40 years on," and "The A70 UFO case." It also touches upon the intriguing question of whether a lost tribe from ancient Israel resided in North America.

"The WOW! Signal": 40 Years On

This article revisits the famous "Wow!" signal detected on August 15, 1977, by astronomer Jerry R Ehman at the Big Ear radio telescope. The signal, lasting just over a minute, was a strong burst at 1420 megahertz, a frequency associated with hydrogen. The article introduces a new theory proposed by Professor Antonio Paris of St Petersburg College, Florida. Paris suggests that the signal may have been caused by two comets, 266P/Christensen and P/2008 Y2 (Gibbs), which passed through the same sector of space around the time of the detection. While the comets will not pass together again for 600 years, Paris believes monitoring their return in 2017 and 2018 could provide evidence for his natural phenomenon theory. The article notes that while the astronomical community is excited, SETI and conspiracy theorists remain skeptical.

UFOs - Conspiracy Or Indifference?

Written by Nick Pope, this piece examines the British Government's policy and knowledge regarding UFOs, exploring the possibility of a cover-up. Pope details an incident on November 5, 1990, where a squadron of RAF Tornado jets was overtaken by a UFO at high speed. He references early British involvement in UFO studies, including a 1951 intelligence study and the subsequent Project Grudge and Blue Book investigations in the US. The article suggests that the British government's initial interest in UFOs stemmed from concerns about unknown Soviet aircraft rather than extraterrestrial visitors. The prevailing military philosophy was to monitor airspace for potential threats. Pope argues that the government's conservative nature and a lack of direct evidence led to a policy of downplaying UFO reports, which ufologists often interpret as a deliberate cover-up. He notes that while some files were declassified after the standard thirty-year rule, the lack of follow-up action on unexplained cases, such as the Tornado incident and the Rendlesham Forest incident, points more towards indifference or incompetence than a sinister conspiracy. The Ministry of Defence's current policy is to examine UFO sightings for threats, but these examinations are often cursory.

The A70 UFO Case

This section details the A70 UFO case, investigated by Malcolm Robinson. The article promises to reveal what happened on a specific warm August night, nearly 24 years prior to publication. It is presented as Scotland's first reported UFO abduction case.

The Lost Tribe of Israel

This article poses the question of whether a lost tribe from ancient Israel migrated to North America thousands of years before Columbus' arrival. It also speculates whether a resurrected Jesus Christ visited them.

The editorial stance appears to be open-minded and investigative, presenting various theories and evidence from different perspectives within the UFO and paranormal communities.

This issue of The Outer Limits Magazine, dated February 2016, delves into the world of UFO investigations and paranormal phenomena. It features an in-depth look at how the CIA and other government bodies have approached UFO sightings, alongside a case study of a significant haunting.

Investigating UFOs: The CIA and Project BLUE BOOK

The magazine begins by explaining how the public can access information about UFOs in the UK, primarily through the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Public Record Office. It details the process of reporting sightings to the MoD's Secretariat (Air Staff)2a, which investigates reports by correlating them with known phenomena. Out of hundreds of reports, 95% are explained.

The article highlights the role of the CIA in investigating UFOs, particularly in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It mentions the declassification of hundreds of CIA documents related to UFO investigations. The Freedom of Information Act is noted as a potential tool for greater public access to UFO information.

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to the Zamora incident in Socorro, New Mexico, on April 24, 1964. Police officer Lonnie Zamora reported a loud roar and a flame, leading him to investigate a shiny, aluminium, oval-shaped object with two metal legs. The object hovered, then sped away. Hector Quintanilla, the last chief of Project BLUE BOOK, considered this case 'the best-documented case on record' and it remains unsolved. The article details the investigation, including soil samples and Geiger counter tests, which revealed no foreign material or unusual radiation.

Project BLUE BOOK, which ran from 1947 to 1969, recorded 12,618 sightings, with 701 remaining unidentified. The CIA played a role in UFO investigations during the late 1940s and early 1950s, though its attention waned later. The issue outlines ten tips for investigating flying saucers, emphasizing the need to establish a group, determine objectives, consult experts, create a reporting system, and eliminate false positives. It also touches upon the historical context of 'Foo Fighters' during World War II.

The article discusses the CIA's concern during the Cold War that UFO reports could be used by Soviets to incite panic or overload air warning systems. It stresses the importance of educating the public and military on identifying common aerial phenomena that are often mistaken for UFOs.

UFO Agency in Argentina Shuts Down

A brief section covers the closure of Argentina's Commission for the Study of Aerospace Phenomena (CEFAE) by President Mauricio Macri. Formed in 2011, the agency produced only one report and investigated ten sightings over five years, with conclusions often attributing sightings to known objects like stars, planets, or aircraft.

A Statement from Malcolm Robinson and Kevin Goodman

Malcolm Robinson and Kevin Goodman have launched a UK-based Facebook site to provide a platform for UFO and paranormal researchers who give lectures. The site aims to connect speakers with venues seeking presentations on subjects like UFOs, ghosts, cryptozoology, and conspiracies. It serves as a 'one-stop shop' for booking speakers, with payment arrangements made directly between the client and the speaker.

The House of Dark Forces By Jason Love

The magazine features an extensive article by Jason Love, a demonologist, detailing an investigation into a haunting at a house in Sherwood Forest, Nottingham. The residents, Cyril and Gill, reported escalating paranormal activity, including dark figures, moving furniture, and unseen attacks, which they attributed to malevolent forces possibly linked to the land's history involving Lord Byron and Satanic worshippers. Love, along with the 'Past Hauntings' team, conducted a minor rite of exorcism, which seemed to bring a sense of peace to the house. However, the article notes that unexplained phenomena, described as 'alien activity,' have continued outside the house, involving hovering objects and strange figures, suggesting a dual nature to the mystery.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue demonstrates a strong interest in official investigations into UFO phenomena, particularly historical government projects like Project BLUE BOOK and the CIA's involvement. It emphasizes the importance of rigorous investigation, evidence gathering, and the elimination of mundane explanations. The inclusion of the Zamora case highlights the enduring mystery of unexplained sightings. Alongside the UFO focus, the magazine also explores the realm of paranormal activity, with a detailed account of a house haunting, showcasing the breadth of unexplained phenomena covered by The Outer Limits Magazine. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into both UFOs and other paranormal events, encouraging research and public engagement, as evidenced by the call for speakers and the discussion of information access.

Title: The SPI Files!
Cover Headline: The A70 UFO Case!
Author: Malcolm Robinson

This issue of The SPI Files! delves into various unexplained phenomena, with a primary focus on the A70 UFO Case in Scotland, alongside investigations into the Chupacabra, Ooparts, and a review of a book on UFO investigations.

The A70 UFO Case!

The lead article details the A70 UFO Case, a reported incident from August 1992 involving Garry Wood and Colin Wright. While driving on the A70 in Scotland, they encountered a strange, 2-tiered, jet-black, disc-shaped object hovering about 20 feet above the road. The object emitted a silver shimmering mist that enveloped their car, plunging them into darkness. After a shudder, they found themselves back in control, but significantly late for their destination. Both men later experienced strange dreams and found unexplained scars on their bodies. Following this, they contacted UFO researcher Malcolm Robinson, who suggested hypnotic regression. Under hypnosis, it was revealed that they were taken aboard the object and subjected to a medical examination. They described encountering 'greys' of varying heights, with grey translucent skin and large black almond-shaped eyes. The experience was deeply traumatic for both men and affected their loved ones.

The Halls of Residence Incident

This section recounts an incident involving a 24-year-old law student named David, who experienced a bizarre encounter in his London University halls of residence in June 1996. He reported seeing 'beings' around his bed, described as about a metre tall, wearing brown, habit-like coverings. These beings had evil-looking, brown complexions and dark oval eyes. David experienced a sensation of his life flashing before him, followed by a bright white flash and a rush of wind, leaving him paralyzed. He then witnessed a silver metallic object being pointed at him, causing intense pain as a needle-like device was inserted into his body. After the device was removed, the beings appeared to melt through the wall. He later discovered a small red spot on his body which faded. He also noted that a fellow student, who was unusually awake at that hour, had seen nothing.

Chupacabra: Case Solved?

This article investigates the phenomenon of the Chupacabra, a cryptid creature first reported in Puerto Rico in 1995. Initially described as a four-and-a-half to five-foot-tall creature with alien-like red eyes, feathery spines, and powerful hind-legs, it was known for attacking livestock and leaving them drained of blood. The creature's range was reported to extend across parts of the Americas. However, sightings of this specific form faded, replaced by descriptions of canine animals resembling hairless dogs or coyotes. The article suggests that alleged Chupacabra carcasses, when scientifically examined, were identified as known animals like dogs, coyotes, or raccoons, often suffering from parasitic infections. The initial reports of the Chupacabra are linked to a Puerto Rican woman named Madelyne Tolentino, whose description closely matched the alien monster 'Sil' from the 1995 science fiction film "Species." The article concludes that while the specific 'goat-sucking monster' may continue to be reported, the mystery of its original form appears to be solved, with its description likely influenced by popular culture.

Ooparts: The Genetic Disk

This section discusses the 'Genetic Disk,' an artifact attributed to Professor Gutierrez of Bogota, Colombia. The disk, measuring 22 cm in diameter and weighing 2 kilograms, is made of a stone called Luddite and features carvings depicting human reproduction, from sperm and egg cells to a growing embryo, and scenes of cell division showing human gestation. The article highlights that such detailed biological knowledge would be extraordinary for the supposed age of the artifact. It also touches upon the antediluvian period and the concept of 'no new thing under the sun,' suggesting that progress might be a recovery of previous levels. The article questions the provenance of the disk, noting the lack of official archaeological records and the modern, sleek design, suggesting the supposed finder, Industrial Designer Jaime Gutierrez-Lega, might be involved in a misunderstanding or misrepresentation.

Corroborating Evidence Book Review

This section reviews the book "Corroborating Evidence (The UFO Investigation of the Millennium)" by James Welsh. The book details Welsh's own UFO sightings in Scotland, as well as UFOs related to NASA's Space Program and the Hubble Servicing Mission STS103. The review highlights that the book is dedicated to the memory of British UFO researcher Graham Birdsall. James Welsh's investigation was spurred by a lack of interest from the British Ministry of Defence in his sightings. The book includes details of UFO sightings across continents, including the Hudson Valley UFO sightings and Project Hessdalen. A significant portion of the book focuses on NASA space missions, particularly footage captured by the Space Shuttle Atlantis and STS-48, which James Welsh believes show extraterrestrial spacecraft. The review mentions the involvement of ex-NASA contractor Jari Mikkola and researcher Wilbur Allen, who also studied the footage. The book also includes photo-copied letters, maps of UFO incidents, and links to YouTube videos of NASA footage. The reviewer, Malcolm Robinson, praises the book for its thoroughness and the implications of its findings.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue consistently explores the unexplained, with a strong emphasis on UFO sightings, encounters, and potential abductions. The articles present witness testimonies, investigative findings, and critical analysis, often drawing on hypnotic regression and scientific examination. There's a recurring theme of skepticism towards official explanations and a belief in the need for transparency regarding UFO phenomena. The magazine appears to support the idea that extraordinary events, like the A70 incident and the initial Chupacabra reports, are real and warrant serious investigation, even if later explanations offer more conventional interpretations. The editorial stance seems to be one of open-minded inquiry into paranormal and unexplained events, encouraging readers to consider possibilities beyond conventional understanding.

Article: Where Is All the Evidence? by Russel Callaghan

Russel Callaghan opens the issue by reflecting on his long-standing involvement in the subject of UFOs and paranormal research. He emphasizes his preference for researchers who approach the subject with a "no nonsense" attitude and are open to plausible explanations when challenged. Callaghan recounts his experience publishing UFO DATA magazine after his colleague Graham W. Birdsall's passing, noting the financial difficulties faced by print media due to the rise of the internet. He highlights his personal funding of the magazine to protect the subject and his travels worldwide, which exposed him to various characters in the field. Callaghan also mentions his background in video filming and production, which has allowed him to scrutinize alleged UFO evidence, often finding it to be less than conclusive.

He addresses the skepticism surrounding the UFO subject in recent years, attributing it partly to media explanations like Chinese lanterns and the internet's proliferation of 'iPad app created UFOs.' Callaghan identifies drones as a new source of misidentification or hoaxes. He shares a personal encounter from 1980 where he witnessed a metallic disk hovering at 1500 feet for three seconds before silently ascending out of sight, an experience that has solidified his belief.

Callaghan posits that UFOs, ghosts, and monsters are deeply ingrained in human culture. He contrasts the historical lack of verifiable evidence with modern technological capabilities for recording events. He notes that while early photography was a novelty, discernible detail took time to achieve. He questions why, with today's technology, we don't have more quality films and photographs of UFOs, aliens, or ghosts, suggesting it's a fair question to be explored further.

He then discusses how technology, particularly mobile devices, allows for instant sharing of images and videos, yet the quality of UFO evidence remains questionable. Callaghan also touches upon the interpretation of art, suggesting that strange objects depicted in ancient art might be what the artists actually saw, rather than symbolic representations. He uses the example of a four-year-old drawing a bird to illustrate how recognizable shapes are created.

Callaghan also brings up the concept of Bigfoot, posing a scenario where one might encounter such a creature and asking whether they would stop to document it or flee. He notes that while science dates dinosaur fossils back millions of years, the complete skeletons on display are few, leading to the assumption of millions of individuals. He applies a similar logic to the Loch Ness Monster, questioning how a single creature could survive without a family group.

He critiques the early days of camcorders, where autofocus and iris systems could fool operators into believing they had filmed a UFO. He also mentions the rise of home computers and CGI technology, which has enabled the creation of convincing hoax material shared on platforms like YouTube. Even with advanced technology like Night Vision and FLIR cameras used by monster hunters, Callaghan points out that investigations, such as those by Matt Moneymaker's Bigfoot research team, have produced zero definitive evidence.

Article: Demons From Hyperspace by Brian Allan

Brian Allan's article explores the connection between paranormal phenomena, particularly UFOs, and the concept of magick, drawing parallels between ancient demons and modern extraterrestrials. He begins by defining 'magick' as distinct from stage illusions and trickery, emphasizing its deliberate spelling to separate it from the mundane. Allan quotes John Keel, who described how demons and supernatural entities can manifest in various forms and imitate angels or monsters, similar to UFOs and their occupants.

Allan suggests that UFOs might not originate from outer space but could be entities from alternate dimensions. He proposes that our perception of reality is key to understanding these phenomena. He explains that our perception of solid objects is based on energy at specific frequencies, and under certain influences, this perception can change. He uses the analogy of a 'steel ingot' to illustrate how a physical object is reduced to stored electrical signals in memory.

Allan references Alan Watts' quote, "Reality is a Rorschach ink blot," to emphasize the subjective and fluid nature of reality, which is bounded only by imagination. He argues that understanding this fluidity is fundamental to appreciating magick. He discusses how entities have allegedly visited Earth for millennia, with their potential rewards outweighing the dangers.

He delves into the historical accounts of Dr. John Dee and his scryer Edward Kelley, who allegedly encountered 'little men' using 'Enochian' language. Allan suggests these beings were likely not angels but entities from alternate dimensions, possibly perceived as 'angles' due to the properties of Kelley's artefact. He notes that Dee and Kelley believed they had opened gates of Hades and took protective measures.

Allan also mentions Aleister Crowley's ritual at Boleskine Lodge on Loch Ness, where he allegedly opened a portal and brought through entities. He describes Crowley's method of sprinkling sand to detect invisible beings and the persistent reports of strange phenomena around the lodge.

He then discusses Jack Parsons, a co-founder of JPL, who, with L. Ron Hubbard, performed the 'Babalon Working' to bring 'Old Ones' into this world. Allan suggests that these entities, which were allegedly banished long ago, might not have intended harm but considered humans as vermin.

He touches upon the 'Amalantrah Working' by Rowley, who contacted an entity called 'Lam,' depicted as a 'grey' alien, suggesting a possible corroboration of current thinking on the origin of supernatural and extraterrestrial entities. He notes Crowley's use of substances like cannabis and mescaline, paralleling shamanic practices.

Allan introduces the concept of 'Chaos Magick,' which he describes as a modern technique that embraces the idea of 'fake it till you make it.' He explains that belief is a tool that can sculpt reality, and that the universe operates on frequencies. He discusses Austin Osman Spare's introduction of 'sigils' – condensed expressions of intent – as a method to achieve desired effects.

He highlights that the motivation behind these practices is often knowledge and power. Allan suggests that the connection between magick, UFOs, and their occupants is evident, noting that many who encounter UFOs and ETs also have a history of psychic occurrences, such as 'second sight.' He posits that modern ufologists might have studied Demonology and alchemy had they lived in earlier times.

Allan explores 'Sympathetic Magick,' which involves blending characteristics of objects or imposing them on others, potentially another form of Chaos Magick. He describes 'poppetry' (dolls representing individuals) and 'transference' (using objects to transfer conditions). He also touches upon the idea that prayer might be a form of Chaos Magick, as it can influence probability and recovery.

He draws a parallel between Quantum Theory and magick, noting that at a subatomic level, human observation can affect outcomes. He concludes that the latent danger in magick lies in the loss of control once a spell is released into the subconscious.

Allan discusses the concept of 'Dwellers in the Dark,' suggesting that modern ETs might be the same entities our ancestors perceived as demons and devils. He criticizes the culture of denial surrounding the paranormal and highlights the interchangeability of descriptions of ancient demons and modern ETs.

He concludes that science and magick are not entirely separate, with quantum physics offering insights into the 'Seal of Solomon' required to open barriers between dimensions. He emphasizes that all diverse methods of magick are fundamentally the same, differing only in their packaging, and that we are all 'Dwellers in the Dark,' with entities surrounding us being the 'enlightened ones.'

Book Review: Strange Skies, Strange Eyes by Brian Allan

This section reviews Brian Allan's book, 'Strange Skies, Strange Eyes: The Paranormal, Ufology and Everyday Magick.' The book is described as a distillation of reflections and observations on the occult, the paranormal, and their relationship to Ufology. It suggests that aspects of Ufology may be manifestations of the paranormal. The reviewer notes that there appears to be little difference between these subjects, with divergences arising from individual experiences. The book is available for purchase on Amazon.com.

Phenomena Magazine Promotion

The final page promotes Phenomena Magazine as a FREE online magazine, downloadable in PDF format. It highlights its coverage of the paranormal, ufological, cryptozoological, parapsychological, Earth mysteries, supernatural, and Fortean events. It mentions guest writers, reviews, and news.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of evidence, the blurring lines between science and the paranormal, and the interconnectedness of UFO phenomena, magick, and ancient beliefs. The magazine adopts an open-minded yet critical stance, encouraging readers to question and investigate while acknowledging the challenges posed by hoaxes and misinterpretations. There's a strong undercurrent suggesting that what we perceive as distinct phenomena might be facets of a larger, more complex reality, with consciousness and belief playing a significant role in shaping our experience of it. The editorial stance appears to be one of exploration and challenging conventional paradigms, particularly in the realm of the unexplained.

This issue of The Outer Limits Magazine, dated August 1, 2016, delves into several intriguing topics related to the paranormal, ancient mysteries, and unexplained phenomena. The cover story, "The Lost Tribe Of Israel!", explores the controversial theory of ancient Israelites migrating to North America. The magazine also features an article on the US government's 'Stargate Project,' which investigated psychic abilities, and a case study titled "Dream or Reality? Bedroom Visitors," detailing a reported paranormal encounter.

The Lost Tribe Of Israel!

The article "The Lost Tribe Of Israel!" examines claims that a lost tribe of ancient Israel made its way to North America, establishing cities and civilization around 600 BC/BCE. It scrutinizes the theories put forth by organizations like the Latter Day Saints (Mormons) and compares them to archaeological and biblical history. The piece notes L. Taylor Hansen's book "He Walked the Americas," which discusses a "White Prophet" visiting the Americas, drawing from Native American legends. The article points out that Hansen had no affiliation with the Church of Latter Day Saints and that Hansen was a female author, Lucille Taylor Hansen. It also highlights the Mormon belief that this "White Prophet" was Jesus Christ, who, according to the Book of Mormon, visited ancient America in 34 AD/CE after his resurrection, teaching the inhabitants for three days.

The article questions why Jesus Christ, who died in Jerusalem, would visit the "Other Sheep" in ancient America as mentioned in John 10:16. It explains that "other sheep" refers to Gentiles outside of Israel, who were to be brought into one fold. The text discusses Paul's commission to preach to the Gentiles and the mystery of the universal church, where Jews and Gentiles are united. It raises the question of whether a resurrected Jesus Christ visited ancient America and chose twelve more apostles. The article contrasts this with the biblical account of Jesus commissioning his disciples to spread the gospel worldwide after his ascension, rather than making a personal visit to the Americas.

It also touches upon the many mysteries surrounding the ten "lost" tribes of Israel, mentioning legends of their migration to Europe and claims of ancestry by various groups worldwide. The article asserts that the "lost tribes" were not truly lost, as many Jews reunited with Judah after the Assyrian conquest, and remnants of northern tribes were part of Babylonian deportations. It concludes that God knows where all twelve tribes are, and the idea of them being lost is false. The article suggests that it is highly unlikely a resurrected Jesus Christ walked the ancient Americas, noting the lack of archaeological evidence for the large cities and civilizations described in the Book of Mormon.

Mainstream archaeologists disagree with the Book of Mormon's conclusions, citing a lack of evidence for animals, plants, and technologies mentioned in the text (such as horses, oxen, steel, chariots) in ancient America between 3100 BC and 400 AD. The article quotes Michael Coe, who suggests that the scarcity of identifiable remains is not surprising given the nature of ancient civilizations and the passage of time. It also notes that while the Maya civilization left a vast corpus of inscriptions, none of them relate to events, rulers, or timelines mentioned in the Book of Mormon. The article concludes that it is unlikely a "Pale Prophet" or a resurrected Christ visited ancient America.

The SPI Files! - Dream or Reality? Bedroom Visitors

This section details a case reported to SPI (Society for Psychical Investigation) by a mother named Amanda regarding her four-year-old daughter, Sarah. Sarah claimed to see "monsters" in her room at night, which later escalated to her being "touched" by them. The mother initially dismissed it as bad dreams but changed her opinion when Sarah reported a "blue light" entering her room. The family had also been observing "strange lights in the sky" near their home in Grangemouth, Scotland. Despite attempts to redecorate Sarah's room and have her sleep with her parents, the experiences continued. Sarah's younger sister, Clare, also began having nightmares and exhibited a deep scratch on her nose, which disappeared by morning.

Amanda stated that Sarah had not seen anything on television or in newspapers that resembled the "monsters," nor had they spoken about UFO sightings in front of her. The family had even reduced their evening visits to avoid discussing the topic around the children. The article notes that Amanda works at the British Petroleum (B.P.) plant in Grangemouth, a location known for UFO sightings. The reporter, Malcolm Robinson, acknowledges that the case could be attributed to "childish imagination" but also considers the possibility of it being a genuine paranormal or abduction case, though he remains unconvinced.

The Stargate Project!

This article provides an overview of the "Stargate Project," a defunct secret study by the U.S. government conducted from 1972 to 1995. Known by various code names like Gondola Wish and Scannate, the project aimed to investigate the potential military applications of psychic abilities, including remote viewing, clairvoyance, and telekinesis. It was influenced by earlier research at The American Society for Psychical Research and Stanford Research Institute, and prompted by Soviet psychic research during the Cold War.

The project involved approximately 22 remote viewers and 14 research labs, with a budget of $20 million USD. The FBI, CIA, and other government agencies were involved. Despite some reported successes, such as predicting details of the USS Stark frigate attack and locating hostages, the government officially declared in 1995 that the project "has not been shown to have value in intelligence operations." The article mentions University of California statistics professor Jessica Utts' analysis, which found psychic subjects scored 5%-15% above chance but also produced a lot of irrelevant information. The founders of the program are identified as Russell Targ, Hal Puthoff, and Ingo Swann, who believed people could learn remote viewing. The project reportedly produced detailed renderings of Soviet bases, identified hostage locations, and even noted the impending attack on the Twin Towers, which was ignored.

The Secret Agenda

This section announces Kyle Hole's upcoming science fiction novel, "The Secret Agenda," due in July 2016. The book is described as a 20-chapter extravaganza that uncovers a doomsday scenario involving an alien invasion, shaking the foundations of life and religion. It follows a former employee of Area 51 who brings the truth to public attention. Contact information for Kyle Hole's Facebook page and book website is provided.

The SPI Files! - WHAT ARE GHOSTS?

This article, written by Malcolm Robinson, discusses the concept of proof in relation to ghosts and the paranormal. Dr. J. Allen Hynek is quoted stating that 21st and 30th-century science may view the universe differently. Robinson emphasizes that what constitutes proof can be subjective, with different witnesses offering varied accounts of the same event. He distinguishes between skeptics, whom he can handle, and "debunkers," who refuse to believe regardless of evidence.

The article draws parallels between historical scientific shifts, like the understanding of the Earth's shape from flat to round, and the potential for future scientific understanding of the paranormal. It references Pythagoras and Eratosthenes for the Earth's shape and Magellan's voyage. The invention of the microscope is cited as an example of revealing an invisible world. Robinson suggests that psychic mediums might interpret signals from "elsewhere" in a similar way that radio and television convert signals into observable content. He quotes George Meek on the nature of matter, suggesting that physical objects are mostly "empty space" and that multiple things can occupy the same space simultaneously, which could explain phenomena like ghosts.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the unexplained, the historical and biblical mysteries, and the potential for paranormal phenomena. The magazine appears to adopt an open-minded yet critical stance, presenting controversial theories like the Lost Tribe of Israel and the Book of Mormon's narrative alongside skeptical archaeological perspectives. It also explores government-funded research into the paranormal (Stargate Project) and personal accounts of alleged supernatural encounters (bedroom visitors). The editorial stance seems to encourage readers to consider different possibilities while also demanding evidence and critical evaluation, particularly in the case of debunkers who dismiss phenomena outright. The inclusion of a science fiction novel preview suggests an interest in speculative fiction related to paranormal and extraterrestrial themes.

This issue of The Outer Limits Magazine, Volume 1, Issue 1, dated May 2007, is a free online publication that explores paranormal phenomena. The cover headline is "Umbrella Plane," and the issue features articles on the aerodynamics of flying saucers and the historical legend of the Flixton werewolf.

Article: Umbrella Plane

This article, by Pavel Poluyan PhD, delves into the origins and technology of flying saucers. Poluyan suggests that the concept of flying saucers is not entirely extraterrestrial but has roots in terrestrial technology. He references a 2007 newspaper article in Russia's "Red Star" that featured his research on UFOs, positing that flying saucers are vehicles built on Earth by secret military services for spying, possibly by the US or the Soviet Union.

Poluyan discusses the "umbrella plane," a device demonstrated in old newsreels, which he identifies as an ancestor of flying saucers. He explains that the principle of flight for these early craft was based on the formation of compression under a vibrating surface, creating lift through asymmetrical streamlining, a technology not fully realized in 1911.

The article touches upon various generations of flying saucer technology. The first flying saucers, appearing in the late 1940s, resembled telephone dynamic speakers with vibrating membranes. Later models, developed by Russian engineers, utilized impulse electromagnets and piezo ceramics, resulting in ball or ellipse shapes surrounded by ionized gas. The third generation consists of dark objects with glowing vortex activators.

Poluyan dismisses the idea of extra-terrestrial origins, stating that the myth is being turned into a 'real spy novel.' He asserts that his research is based on personal finances and years of investigation, not external funding from organizations like the FSB. He concludes that it's time to move beyond fairy tales of extraterrestrials and consider other phenomena, such as the immortality of the soul.

Article: A Passage Through Time - The Flixton Werewolf

Authored by Paul Sinclair, this article investigates the legend of the Flixton werewolf, a creature said to have inhabited the village of Flixton in East Yorkshire for over 900 years. Sinclair aims to uncover the reasons behind the enduring nature of this legend.

He notes that while some researchers focus on the idea of a refuge built in Flixton to protect travelers from the beast, Sinclair believes the truth is more complex. He identifies two medieval hospitals, or 'spittals,' built in the area: one in Flixton, possibly known as Carmans Spittle, and another in Staxton, likely St. Mary's or St. Andrew's Spittal, overseen by Bridlington Priory. These were intended as places of worship and safe havens for travelers.

Sinclair explores the name "Carmans Spittal" and its potential link to the 'beast,' noting place names in the vicinity that reference dogs, hounds, and wolves, such as "Wolf land" and "Hundykes." He suggests that modern accounts point to a paranormal manifestation in the area.

The article then connects the werewolf legend to the archaeological site of Starr Carr, discovered in 1947. Excavations at Starr Carr revealed artifacts such as red deer skull caps, possibly used as masks or in shamanistic rituals. Sinclair speculates that the Flixton werewolf might be a remnant of lost knowledge or a result of shamanic practices, where early humans, more attuned to the spiritual and paranormal, might have accessed other dimensions.

He discusses theories that the skull masks were used for camouflage during hunting or as part of shamanistic ceremonies. Sinclair posits that the animal instinct in early humans might have allowed them to perceive paranormal phenomena that modern humans have lost the ability to sense. He considers the possibility that ancient people discovered ways into other dimensions, and that the Flixton beast could be a manifestation of such practices or a 'demonic creature' encountered through shamanism.

Sinclair recounts his own experiences in Flixton and Folkton, speaking with locals. Many were unaware of the werewolf stories, but some elderly residents confirmed hearing them. He mentions a specific encounter from 1948, where a witness described seeing a hairy, dog-headed creature near burial mounds called Sharp Howe. The witness described the creature as unusual and frightening, and mentioned that people often avoid discussing such sightings due to fear or the belief that it brings bad luck.

Sinclair also clarifies that the stories of the werewolf roaming a grave yard in Flixton are considered nonsense by locals, as the village only has one cemetery established in 1922. However, the burial mounds at Sharp Howe are noted as a potential site linked to the legend.

This document appears to be a single page from a magazine titled "TRUTH PROOF" by Paul Sinclair, focusing on paranormal activities in the Yorkshire Wolds, North Sea, and Yorkshire Coastline. The cover headline proclaims "ONE MANS CONTINUING SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH OF THE PARANORMAL ACTIVITIES ON THE YORKSHIRE WOLDS," with a subtitle "THE TRUTH THAT LEAVES NO PROOF." A striking image of a glowing, unidentified light form is featured over a dark landscape.

Flixton Werewolf and Sharp Howe

The article delves into the legend of the Flixton werewolf, which is tied to an ancient burial ground in Flixton. This location, known as Sharp Howe, was also historically referred to as a 'house of the dead.' The author, Paul Sinclair, speculates whether the werewolf sightings might be more of an apparition or a glimpse into another dimension rather than a physical creature. He references an old article from the Bridlington Free Press that identified Sharp Howe as a 'house of the dead.' Sinclair acknowledges the difficulty in proving the existence of such phenomena, suggesting that they are "genuine unknown."

Interdimensional Theory and Ley Lines

Sinclair extends his theory to light forms observed on land and at sea, proposing they are also interdimensional in nature. He notes a recurring observation of ley lines in locations where unexplained events occur, referring to them as "unseen tracks of power." His research suggests a link between these phenomena and an "interdimensional highway." Old maps of the area reveal a landscape rich with burial mounds, standing stones, and other earthworks, which he believes were intentionally placed on interconnecting energy lines.

High-Energy Areas and UFOs

The author posits that these ancient, high-energy sites act as a magnet for the unexplained, including sightings of "small beings and unexplained aerial phenomena." The proximity of RAF Staxton Wold and RAF Bempton is highlighted within this context of strangeness. Old maps also indicated that Sharp Howe was a short distance from a farm where small beings were seen and close to where witnesses Brian and Pat observed light forms. The area where the Flixton werewolf was said to have made terrifying appearances is also mentioned. It is noted that a part of Flixton's land was historically known as "Wolfland," suggesting a strong connection to wolves or a werewolf.
