Unsolved
mysteries of Boston
After Whitey and the Gardner, what’s left? Meet the

Extract: THE DOVER DEMON "William Bartlett was 17 when he saw it, just sitting there, on a spring night in 1977. Bartlett was driving at the time along Farm Street in Dover, and though it was dark, he could clearly make it out, staring at him with its shining orange eyes. Its head was like an egg, Bartlett said later, and from what he could tell, it was hairless, and had no nose or mouth. Not knowing what to do, the teenager kept moving."

I hope no one thinks this is in
bad taste in view of the bombings. It is perhaps a tribute to the diversity of
Boston. My prayers and thoughts to all those who have lost some one or who were
injured in Boston.
Monster Hunt: Legend of the
Mothman
In 1966,
a group of gravediggers in West Virginia reported seeing a flying humanoid
figure with glowing red eyes. A year later, a nearby bridge collapsed, killing
46 people. Coincidence? Probably, but who knows.
