Haunted Skies Volume 3 1970-1975

Haunted Skies team, John Hanson, Dawn Holloway, and Victoria J. Hyde, proudly present Volume 3 of Haunted Skies (revised) - replacing one of six earlier volumes, removed from sale by our ex-publisher following legal proceedings - covering the period 1971-1975, which are now in colour and updated to include sightings from the Unites States. We felt privileged that Howard Hughes, of the Unexplained Radio podcasts, had agreed to submit a foreword. Howard Hughes: (extract) "At the end of the day - in the absence of revelation or 'disclosure' - there is only belief. Either you believe there is something out there or you don't, and the process of making a decision is assisted by evidence. Perhaps it's something you've seen or something you've been told. It's unlikely, but it might be something you read in a tabloid newspaper. Maybe you have read a book on the subject. Maybe you think you have been abducted by the 'Greys'. Evidence is the key to belief or dismissal. The 'Haunted Skies' series of books is the best researched series of its kind. I have worked on news-desks all my life, but I have never seen research so thorough - documents, photographs, statements, witness accounts, and many, many of them. I urge you to read and digest this new edition and let it help you come to an informed decision. Are the claimed craft 'theirs' or 'ours'? Do governments know more than they tell us, and is there a big truth that has yet to be revealed? This book will help you come to a view. John, Dawn, and V.J. Hyde deserve great success for their hard work and the frequent wearing out of old-fashioned shoe leather in the quest for detail. The boy who loved 'The Invaders' and went on to be a broadcaster and journalist is impressed." Totally ignored by the media Despite the efforts of the National Newspapers not to include any references to our work over a period of now eight years, and a personal visit to the Daily Mirror in London, a few years ago, to see a journalist who promised to finally publish a reference to our work (which never came to fruition), we are determined to publish the 'real truths' of what took place in the last century when the UK was 'blitzed' by sightings of peculiar craft and their occasional occupants. Covering just six years This book covers a period of just six years - a short length of time but monumental in all manner of strange phenomena reported by the general public, often in the face of ridicule epitomising the courage of these people who had nothing to gain but much to lose by simply reporting what they had seen. In addition to some spectacular cases outlined, which include a number of UFO landings when occupants were seen, there are over 500 images of people, places, and memorabilia. Why has the subject been suppressed by journalists? Over the years we have looked at thousands of newspaper cuttings covering some of these sightings, and remain perplexed why - in the majority of cases - the reporter concerned invariably felt the need to use a bizarre 'banner grabbing' headline, which of course, denigrated the report. Why did hardly any of these reporters bother to conduct investigations into the background of these sightings, in order to corroborate the possibility of similar objects seen in the same locality or tracing other witnesses? Was this attitude dictated by some form of hidden agenda ensuring that, in the main, reports were unlikely to be treated seriously by the public? There is, of course, a vast difference between declassified UFO sightings, released into the public sector over the years - nearly always accompanied by considerable press interest (soon quickly forgotten) - and the reality of what exactly took place, catalogued by
