Coast to Coast and The Real Men in Black

For those who may be interested, I'll be on Coast to Coast AM this coming Wednesday night, speaking about my new book, The Real Men in Black. Here's the link.

Ghostly Beasts

Exposed, Uncovered, and Declassified: Ghosts, Spirits, & Hauntings, Am I Being Haunted? is a soon-to-be-published collection of writings that includes a chapter from me on spectral animals - some of a distinctly cryptozoological nature. For more information, click right here!

The Kingman UFO - In Print

Within the realm of UFO research, and even within the media and the general populace, there can be very few people that have never heard of the so-called Roswell Incident. It is a strange, conspiratorial and sensational saga that suggests nothing less than an alien spacecraft, complete with crew, catastrophically crashed on remote ranch land in the New Mexico desert during the summer of 1947.

The Air Force’s position on Roswell, today, is that the affair can be explained in wholly conventional and down-to-earth terms: the unusual wreckage found at the crash site, says the military, originated with a secret, high-altitude balloon-based project called Mogul that was designed to monitor for early Soviet atomic bomb tests. As for the strange bodies found at the scene, according to the Air Force, they were nothing stranger than crash-test-dummies utilized in parachute-based experiments.

Needless to say, UFO researchers scoff at such assertions, and accuse the U.S. Government of engaging in a cover-up of X-Files-like proportions to try and hide the extraterrestrial truth of the incident. But, Roswell is not alone. Indeed, there are far more than a few reports that suggest aliens may have visited the earth, only to fatally crash and burn. One such event is alleged to have occurred in 1953, in a desert locale on the fringes of the town of Kingman, Arizona.

The Kingman case is a truly unique one that contains a near-infinite number of curious strands, countless characters – some named and speaking on-the-record, and others wholly anonymous and Deep Throat-like in nature. Numerous twists and turns, needless to say, abound.

And, the Kingman affair is the subject of a paper from me that appears in an excellent new publication from New Page Books, titled UFOs & Aliens: Is Anybody Out There? This is the first in an ongoing series of titles from New Page that fall under the overall banner of Exposed, Uncovered, & Declassified.

Volume II - on the subject of ghosts and hauntings - will appear shortly, and the third volume - on ancient mysteries - surfaces at the end of this year.

Exposed, Uncovered, & Declassified is most definitely an exciting, new project that deserves to be eagerly devoured by Forteans everywhere!

A Redfern Anthology

The good folk at the CFZ have just published an anthology of my writings, covering the period 1982 (when my writing career began) to last year, 2010. Titled Space Girl Dead on Spaghetti Junction, the book covers such issues as Cryptozoology, Ufology, music, history, conspiracies, the Chupacabra, the world of Hollywood, crop circles, dragons, werewolves, Roswell, the Contactee movement, and much much more.

If you're in the UK, you can buy the book here; and if you're in the US, click on this link.

Here's Jon Downes, editor and publisher of the book to tell you more:

"New from CFZ Press, the second book in our acclaimed series of fortean anthologies. In this volume, Nick Redfern remembers his mis-spent youth, and presents anecdotes from a long career of causing fortean mischief. He also presents pieces of his writing from various times over the past three decades, with notes placing them into historical context. Of course, Nick being Nick, there are also quite a few smatterings of his inane humour."

An Apocalyptic Q&A

Is the end near? Are aliens going to save us when the countdown to extinction begins? Do we stand a chance of hiding out at Area 51 when zombie-hordes are roaming the ruined cities? Check out the new Q&A with me on these very topics at The Examiner. If you're wondering about the accompanying picture of the "bed-zombie," it relates to one of my answers...
