Every day, very ordinary people are having extraordinarily strange experiences. In one of the most insightful investigations ever published, using the most up to date evidence and refreshingly open-minded approaches, Strange reveals previously unrecorded true-life tales like these …

  • MEETINGS WITH GHOSTS: A new husband haunted by his predecessor … a woman receiving a visit from her friend, not knowing the friend is now dead … a child’s face peering out from a sofa
  • ENCOUNTERS WITH UFOS: Police pursuing balls of light in a car chase across country roads … Nuclear power station workers watching craft arise from beneath the sea … A couple “called” into their garden to witness an uncanny display
  • PSYCHIC EXPERIENCES: A soldier whose out-of-body experience enables him to be retrieved alive from battlefield carnage … A psychic experiment so intense that a glass smashes against a wall … A military officer whose premonition saves his colleagues from being caught in an invasion
  • BIZARRE HAPPENINGS: A woman whose car is unexpectedly flown into the sky by an invisible force … Crop circles that materialise unseen just metres away from bystanders … A timeslip that sends a delivery truck back into the early 1900s

Sceptics dismiss all such encounters – but what if they are wrong? What unconventional causes could be behind such astounding experiences and what are the huge implications? Will new AI-enhanced revelations turn humanity’s entire understanding of reality upside down? Strange demonstrates that it is time to take an important new look at anomalous phenomena.
Andy Thomas is one of the world's leading researchers into unexplained mysteries and conspiracy theories. His many books include the acclaimed The Truth Agenda, which explores paranormal phenomena and global cover-ups, Conspiracies, the most authoritative and comprehensive book on the topic, from JFK and the moon landings to fake news to mass surveillance, and Vital Signs, the definitive guide to crop circles. Andy lectures widely around the globe and appears regularly on TV and radio.
