The Mysterium Zusammenfassung

The Mysterium: Unexplained and extraordinary stories for a post-Nessie generation Jo Tinsley

'A FANTASTICALLY DIVERTING COLLECTION OF GREAT STORIES... AN IDEAL XMAS PRESENT' Stuart Maconie, 6Music

'I ENJOYED IT ENORMOUSLY' Danny Baker, Radio 5 Live

'BRILLIANTLY DONE ... ORIGINAL AND DIFFERENT', Dan Schreiber, No Such Thing As A Fish

A CATALOGUE OF THE EXTRAORDINARY, THE STRANGE AND THE DOWNRIGHT CREEPY...

Discover the unexplained mysteries and unsettling oddities of the modern world, from a beach in British Columbia awash with human feet, to the 'tulpamancers' who claim to be channeling the living spirit of My Little Pony. Ponder terrifying thought experiments (can you think yourself to death?), and reflect on life's great questions (was the Garden of Eden located in Bedford?).

In THE MYSTERIUM David Bramwell and Jo Keeling (authors of THE ODDITORIUM), present a user guide to the strange and unexplained corners of modern life. THE MYSTERIUM catalogues a host of bizarre, funny and intriguing stories for a post-Nessie generation still fascinated by the unknowable. Drawing on contemporary folklore, unsolved mysteries, and unsettling phenomena from the dark corners of the internet, this book celebrates the joy of asking questions and the thrill of finding answers which stop you dead in your tracks.

Featuring a group of men who scared themselves to death, Space's version of the Bermuda Triangle, a cat who can sniff out the dying and the tale of Slenderman, the monster who stepped out of Photoshop and into our nightmares, this fascinating book is a catalogue of the extraordinary, the strange, the mysterious and the downright creepy.

Includes a Foreword by Dan Schreiber, comedian and host of the No Such Thing As A Fish podcast.

The Mysterium Bewertungen

What David and Jo have so brilliantly done with this tome, is that they've forced open a gap in that bookshelf labelled 'mystery' and wedged in something original and different to remind us of all the many new mysteries out there worthy of our eagle-eyed attention -- Dan Schreiber, comedian and host of the No Such Thing As A Fish podcast
