John A. Keel's "Pursuing the Addenda: Supernatural Reports From the Natural World," is an entertaining survey of anomalous "Fortean" events such as UFOs, "Fafrotskies" (things that fall from the sky), enigmatic monuments and relics, historical oddities, strange creatures, scientific mysteries, and psychic phenomena.  Since the beginning of recorded time, mankind has been plagued by unknown forces and beings, which Keel brings into chilling focus. Here you will find authentic reports on a wide variety of subjects, some of which may shock or even frighten you. Are we being invaded from outer space? Are secret agencies tapping your phone, computer, and mail? Could an unseen, pre-human race be watching us from their secret hiding places, manipulating and misleading us for sheer entertainment?  With sharp wit and unique insight, Keel provides explanations for the unusual things he recounts, which have long left others baffled. In this mountain of way-out evidence, he sees a pattern and draws original, startling, and convincing conclusions.  This special edition features an Editor's Note by zoologist Ivan T. Sanderson, Keel's mentor and editor of Pursuit Magazine – where most of these articles originally appeared.

New Saucerian Press proudly presents “A Project Blue Book for the Ages: John Keel’s Book of Ancient Astronauts and Aliens” – one of the last books put together by the iconic ufologist, publisher, and author, Gray Barker, whose writing influenced the plot lines of shows like Star Trek, Futurama, The X-Files, Twin Peaks, The Outer Limits, The Jetsons, Lost in Space, and The Twilight Zone.Shuttling between his Manhattan publishing office and his secluded cabin deep in the hills of his home state of West Virginia, the prolific Barker single-handedly kept public interest focused on UFOs during it leanest years, and introduced many themes still discussed and investigated by today’s paranormal and conspiracy researchers: the Roswell UFO crash, Men in Black, ancient aliens, Nazi UFOs, the Philadelphia Experiment, the Flatwoods Monster, Mothman, MJ-12, secret underground bases, ETs, and the Maury Island Incident. Although his legacy has been ruthlessly attacked by the arch-skeptics of CSICOP (who have wrongly painted him as a hoaxer), more and more people are now giving Barker the credit and recognition he deserves, as a pioneer and public advocate of scientific ufology.“A Project Blue Book for the Ages” and its sister books "John Keel's Book of UFOs," “I Hear the Voices of Depraved Spies and Moguls in My Head," “The Devil is in the Details,” “Forget About Flying Saucers,” “Visitors From the Void,” “Flying Saucer Fire and Fury,” “Serpents of Fire,” “Saucers of Fear,” “Saucers of Fire,” “Bigfoot Shootout,” and “Time-Traveling Through Swamp Gas” were assembled by Barker shortly before his death, using material culled from deteriorating copies of his notoriously speculative newsletters and gossipy syndicated column – for years the most widely read national column on UFOs, Forteana, and “weird science.”In true newsletter style, these works, which were guest-curated by famed Fortean investigator John A. Keel, shed urgent, much-needed light on a wide variety of ufological riddles, featuring Saucerian correspondents such as Erich Von Daniken, Ivan T. Sanderson, Otto Binder, J.J. Hurtak, Josef F. Blumrich, William L. Moore, Jerome Greenfield, Don Wilson, Bryce Bond, Craig and Eric Umland, James Oberg, and B. Ann Slate.

In "The Stranger at the Pentagon: The Strange Case of Frank E. Stranges and Valiant Thor," Fortean researcher and possible Thor "contactee," Andrew B. Colvin, looks at the evidence and provides analysis about this enduring ufological mystery. His theories about the nature of Valiant Thor's visitations may come as a surprise to many.

The Stranger at the Pentagon: The Strange Case of Frank E. Stranges and Valiant Thor

Spurred by the realization that the 9/11 attacks were accurately predicted - in 1967 - by a friend who was seeing Mothman, Seattle artist Andy Colvin began documenting his experiences growing up in WV. The resulting video featured interviews with dozens of paranormal witnesses and experts, including celebrated ufologist John Keel, who originally investigated the sightings in Colvin's neighborhood. Colvin himself began a long series of interviews on radio and TV shows. In addition to doing hundreds of hours of interviews, Colvin generated over 3000 pages of writing, and several thousand photographs, devoted to exploring the mysteries of the Mothman phenomenon. This photo book, "The Mothman's Photographer I," features 300 of Colvin's eerie, symbolic images. There are brief descriptions of all photos, an artist's statement, and a forward by Dave Scott, curator for the Cincinnati Gallery of Conceptual Art. Colvin's images dramatically illustrate his theory that birdmen such as Mothman, Garuda, and Thunderbird are actually archetypal, crime-fighting "superheroes" from the collective unconscious. The job of these avatars is to send dreams, visions, and psychic messages to ordinary humans, thus stimulating insight, creativity, and intellectual growth. Regardless of the source, Colvin's talent as an artist shines through in his drawings and photographs. Despite his spare, unblinking approach, his work is funny and entertaining. Somehow it achieves a poetic magic. It may even represent a breakthrough in how we perceive the mysterious. By taking 25 years and devoting it to nothing but the audiovisual documentation of his own life, Colvin has produced a body of work that transcends the mundane and defies categorization.

New Saucerian presents the third edition (2014) of "The Mothman's Photographer II" by Andy Colvin. When this book was first published almost ten years ago, it caused a ruckus and was generally misunderstood, because the author presented radical theories and material that are only now coming to be known in the public sphere, such as spying and eavesdropping in the paranormal field, synchronistic events that lead researchers to forbidden government secrets, and strange sightings of entities that appear to be trying to communicate with ordinary citizens. Why this may be so is up to debate, but there is no doubt that this personal, conspiratorial, and philosophical book created a sea-change in the investigation of Mothman, UFOs, creature entities, and synchronicity. Spurred in 2001 by the realization that the 9/11 attacks were accurately predicted - in 1967 - by a friend who was seeing Mothman, Seattle artist Andrew Colvin began filming a video series, "The Mothman's Photographer," documenting his experiences growing up near Pt. Pleasant, WV. "The Mothman's Photographer II" book is based on the first half of that series, where Colvin returns to West Virginia to interview friends and family who saw Mothman. While there, Colvin is granted the last in-depth interview with the late John Keel, author of "The Mothman Prophecies." Keel actually contributes several chapters to "The Mothman's Photographer II," in the form of never-before-published transcripts of various Mothman lectures. Colvin also travels to several Mothman, UFO, and Bigfoot sighting spots in the Ohio Valley, including his old neighborhood in Mound, WV, where the shadows of Charles Manson and Sara Jane Moore are still cast. At a "vortex" spot where many creatures were seen, Colvin and his team encounter an energy field whose behavior leads Colvin to a breakthrough. Using an array of facts, figures, and synchronicities, Colvin shocks listeners to one of America's top conspiracy shows, "The Grassy Knoll," by explaining who Mothman may really be, and what his prophecies may really mean. "Powerful... Perhaps more unsettling than 'The Mothman Prophecies'..." -Adam Gorightly, Untamed Dimensions "Very cool..." -Jeff Wamsley, curator, The Mothman Museum "We can now drop the word 'conspiracy." Colvin is one of our country's greatest thinkers, period..." -DJ Novocaine, Taos Public Radio "Obsessed... Unusual... Fascinating..." -John Keel, author, The Mothman Prophecies “Better than the Hollywood version of Mothman...” -Bonnie Brault, Ph.D. "Inspired..." -Allen Greenfield, Secret Cipher of the Ufonauts "Pertinent... Iconoclastic... Semi-legendary... An essential procurement for the paranormal enthusiast." -Jeff Harvey, Singularity Rare &amp; Fine Books "The most exciting, compelling work to come along in quite some time... Filled with a flood of new ideas, theories, and observations..." -Mothman.com "Engaging and honest... Loosens mental constructs in ways that are most beneficial..." -Kevin Aagaard

The Mothman's Photographer, Vol. 2: Meetings With Remarkable Witnesses Touched by Paranormal Phenomena, UFOs, and the Prophecies of West Virginia's Infamous Mothman

New Saucerian proudly presents the corrected, updated, and indexed 2014 edition of "The Mothman Speaks!" Spurred by the realization that the 9/11 attacks were accurately predicted - in 1967 - by a childhood friend who was seeing Mothman, Seattle artist Andy Colvin began filming a reality series, "The Mothman's Photographer," documenting his experiences growing up in West Virginia. "Mothman Speaks" chronicles the thoughts and feelings of several Mothman experiencers in the years immediately after the attacks. These revealing letters, penned during a wave of odd synchronicities, sightings, and encounters, indicate that Mothman may be a guardian angel of mind-bending proportions. Increasingly, the Mothman events look to be as important and miraculous as the famous events at Fatima. Interwoven with these personal diaries are discussions between Colvin and other witnesses and experts that reach back into the mysterious history of the Ohio Valley, giving a fuller context for the phenomenon. Colvin also tracks the relationship between the paranormal and the media - how the two seemingly work together to help form public opinion and belief. Also included is a chapter featuring previously unpublished material from the late John Keel, author of "The Mothman Prophecies." "A great paranormal/conspiracy thriller..." -Lesley Gunter, The Debris Field "Many enlightened truths, all converging..." -Dreamers Online "Really enjoyable..." -Karyn Dolan, Through the Keyhole "The best conspiracy going..." -Harriet Plumbrook "Fantastic! Should be in everyone's Paranormal Top Ten..." -Regan Lee, UFO Digest "All-encompassing... The most important new development in the study of the Mothman entity." -James Smith, TheMothman.org "A breakthrough in how we perceive the mysterious..." -Greg Bishop, UFO Mystic "It's too bad we all don't go through this kind of learning process..." -John Keel

The Mothman Shrieks: Controversial Conversations Concerning Cosmic Conundrums - Cryptic Creatures, Chimeras, Contactees, and the Cleverly Coded ... Correspondences of the Collective Unconscious

New Saucerian Press proudly presents "The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone," a collection of articles and lectures by John A. Keel, the man many consider to have been not only the premiere investigator of all things unusual and “Fortean,” but who was also our very own, 20th-century “Mark Twain.”  Many of the articles in this anthology and its companion volumes, "Flying Saucer to the Center of Your Mind," "Searching for the String," "The Great Phonograph in the Sky," "The Passionate Percipient," and "The Perspicacious Percipient: How to Investigate UFOs and Other Insane Urges" were revolutionary, and explored ideas popularized in Keel’s classic books. Written in Keel’s engaging trademark style, they are sure to delight fans with their fresh, unparalleled insights into the nature of reality.  In these pages, John Keel displays the keen observational skills and investigative tenacity that made him the enfant terrible of ufology for decades. In this no-holds-barred analysis – much of it written almost 50 years ago – Keel shreds most of the sacred-cow beliefs still held by many in ufological and “cryptozoological” circles today, and presents theories so radical that they are only now becoming accepted: the “4-D” or “interdimensional” thesis; the “breakaway civilization” theory; the possible role of “ancient aliens” in human history; the synthetic and/or hallucinatory nature of many “alien abduction” and “Men in Black” encounters; the role of spy agencies in paranormal research; and the alarming connection between UFOs, animal mutilations, and attacks on unsuspecting humans.  In short, "The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone" is witty, incisive, impassioned, and prescient, and cohesively brings Keel’s message into focus in a way that perhaps no other book has. This 2013 edition features illuminating forewords by noted researchers Leon Davidson and Doug Skinner, as well as an introduction by the editor, Andy Colvin.  “After Keel introduced me to The Superspectrum, I was never quite the same…” –Adam Gorightly  “Goes deep into the mystery… A fascinating read…” –Tessa B.

The Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone: Selected Writings of John A. Keel

Popular FM-radio personalities Jeffery Pritchett and Andy Colvin recently invited a number of prominent Bigfoot researchers onto their wild and woolly New Orleans radio show, "The Church of Mabus," in order to get a handle on the controversial Bigfoot scene. "Praise For the Hairy Man: The Secret Life of Bigfoot" is the result of their intensive two-year examination.  Using a simple “10 Questions” interview format, the authors provide a useful snapshot of this burgeoning field of research. In these colorful discussions, Pritchett and Colvin – who have both seen strange "things" themselves – ask the difficult questions point-blank, yet delicately extract many secrets about the elusive creature from researchers like Dr. Jeff Meldrum, Sali Sheppard-Wolford, Kewaunee Lapseritis, Barton Nunnelly, Jeffery Wells, Lyle Blackburn, David Paulides, Christopher Munch, Nick Redfern, Christopher Noël, Brent Raynes, Ross Hamilton, Freeman Young, W.R. Matts, Stacy Brown, Jack Barnes, Julie Scott, and the Bigfoot Chicks.  But this book is more than just an overview. Pritchett and Colvin also deliver extended, free-form interviews with groundbreaking investigators such as Ken Gerhard, Stan Gordon, Dave Coleman, Thom Powell, Kathy Strain, Ardy Sixkiller Clarke, Thomas Hughes, and Jim Marrs, taking the reader into uncharted realms of Sasquatch high-strangeness: the Bigfoot-UFO connection; the Bigfoot-Mothman connection; the possible role of ancient aliens in the genetic history of the Yeti; the sex habits of Sasquatch; reports of Bigfoot telepathy, shapeshifting, and flight; the “pro-kill vs. no-kill” debate; the widespread Native American belief in Sasquatch; and the controversies surrounding Bigfoot DNA – whether or not the Hairy Man should be recognized as an endangered species. The result is a mind-expanding, one-of-a-kind collection of oral history that dares to go where no other Bigfoot book has gone.  This special 2016 edition of "Praise for the Hairy Man" features a dozen interesting photographs from Bigfoot history, as well as a beautiful cover image by Bigfoot experiencer Bobby Beausoleil, former member of the Manson Family.  "Opens your mind without your brain falling out..." –Jim Marrs, "The View From Marrs"  “An entertaining romp through Bigfoot land…” –Ted Torbich, "The Stench of Truth"  “Keep your head above water, if you can!” –Greg Carlwood, "The Higher Side Chats"  “An intimate look at the world's sexiest beast…” –Adam Gorightly, "Untamed Dimensions"  “Purr…” –Tessa B. Dick, "Ancient of Days"
