On sale from 4 FebRobin Hood and the Templars of Doom - The forgotten history of England's most famous outlaw A couple of Knights Templar features this month, as we ask whether the historical figure behind the Robin Hood legend might have been a Templar, and investigate some ancient graffiti that might be the missing link between the Templars and the Holy Grail. Plus we sink our teeth into werewolves, with a look at science's role in turning belief in lycanthropy into belief in Bigfoot, and with a piece on Paul Naschy, the Iberian horror icon who adapted the classic monster movie to explore the beast lurking within Franco's Spain.
Also in this issue we clamber over the ruins of a Byzantine ghost town, investigate tales of a Czech poltergeist, try to get directions from moss, are puzzled by a craze for fake petrified giants, and make our UFO correspondents confess to being MI5 agents. |
