Unexplained Mysteries DVD Sets:
*Unsolved Mysteries:Bizarre Murders
*Unsolved Mysteries Psychics
*Unsolved Mysteries Ghosts
*Unsolved Mysteries:Legends
*Unsolved Mysteries:UFO's
*Unsolved Mysteries:Miracles
- I've always impressed with the 'Unsolved Mysteries' T.V. Show, and the DVD sets are no exception, I am happy to say! Jam-packed with the best cases the show offered ( though I must admit, none I found badly done, or boring to begin with! ), and leaving you amazed at what usually goes unnoticed at times. Truly an interesting view of the Paranormal, Bizarre, and just plain Uncanny things which happen all around us!
*The Psychic's DVD not only shows subjects of this theme, but of Near Death Experiences as well ( N.D.E. ), The Ghosts DVD shows different subjects concerning ghosts, poltergeists, and even famous hauntings widely known. The UFO DVD, as with the Ghosts DVD, is a must have for any Unsolved Mystery Fan - and certainly for anyone interested in UFOs as well! Shocking UFO Stories which may leave you wondering "Are we really Alone?" The Miracles DVD has subjects like The shroud of Turin, Visions of Mary, Bleeding Statues, and so much more!
Five stars and recommended buys!

If you never saw the original movie, here's some true background info from the real story behind the film:
"On November 13, 1974, police received a frantic phone call that led them to a grisly crime scene at the DeFeo residence in Amityville, Long Island an entire family had been slaughtered in their beds. In the days that followed, Ronald DeFeo confessed to methodically shooting his parents and four siblings while they slept. He claimed voices in the house drove him to commit the murders.
One year later, George and Kathy Lutz and their children moved into the house thinking it would be their dream home. But shortly after settling in, bizarre and unexplainable events began to occur nightmarish visions and haunting voices from an evil presence still lurking within the house.
28 days after moving in, the Lutzes abandoned the home, leaving all their personal belongings behind, lucky to escape with their lives. Now, 30 years after the shocking real-life events that inspired one of the most popular horror stories of all time, return to the house that started it all: The Amityville Horror."

.:Spirit Orb Phenomena: Fact or Fiction?:.
By
Anthony Kevan Sercombe
Publishers: BookSurge Publishing
ISBN 1-4196-0292-6
Book review by Paul Vassallo
Ghosts have always fascinated humans if only because they have offered the
possibility of finding out more about life on the other side. Spirit Orbs,
or Fiction?" is a pioneering work in this field and has been rated 93%
www.amazon.com. Put simply, spirit orbs are images of humans which can be
captured with camera. The writer takes the trouble of sharing how easily
spirit orbs can be easily confused with reflected light on camera and other
natural anomalies, however it made clear that spirit orbs images are
definitely different to some tricks of the light.
The many illustrations (98 colour photographs) offer, at least interesting
if not compelling evidence of this phenomena. Readers will be able to judge
for themselves what spirits orbs actually are. The author himself found
spirit orbs appeared more as he wrote the book and looking at the
illustrations one is struck by sheer personality which comes through in
certain images. Perhaps the most appealing fact about this phenomena is that
all it takes is a digital camera for anyone to possibly capture such
intriguing images.
Anthony Kevan Sercombe's book offers a fascinating introduction and
explanations to a little known topic. Not only that, but readers will find
it also provides a doorway into the mysterious world of the spiritual
afterlife.

::NIGHTMARES FROM THE MIND OF POE::
New Release! Available on DVD September 1, 2005!
About the Movie:
Throughout Edgar Allan Poe's life he was plagued with nightmares and the deaths of those he loved. Those nightmares and his tragic life were many times the basis for his stories and poems; often he found himself in the middle of those nightmares and stories as the victim or antagonist. "Nightmares from the Mind of Poe" brings to life those nightmares with Poe as part of the stories, as he dreamed and wrote them. In the movie, he struggles with nightmares, insomnia, sadness and despair in his own life as he creates his stories. The film brings to life four of the most well known tales from the master of suspense and horror - "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Cask of Amontillado", "The Premature Burial" and "The Raven"; all of which are word for word the way Poe wrote them, except "The Premature Burial" which was adapted from his narrative story. In "The Tell-Tale Heart", Poe takes us to the mind of a mad man as he struggles with the thoughts that caused him to do the unthinkable. "The Cask of Amontillado" is the story of ultimate revenge as Montresor punishes Fortunato for insulting him. In "The Premature Burial", Poe deals with one of his greatest fears... being buried alive. "The Raven" which was written through Poe's suffering for his dying wife, deals with the dread of death and "impending doom". In the end, Poe realizes that out of his nightmares and tragic life would come his legacy, his stories for future generations.

WHAT A NOVEL IDEA READING A BOOK ON YOUR MOBILE
A UK first: original novel published exclusively on mobile phone
London, 22nd September 2005:
'It seemed to be a fairly routine murder case - if ever there can be such a thing - as Inspector Liam Morris searched the crime scene for clues. But within a few hours he was caught up in a whirlwind of events more terrifying than anything anyone should ever have to face. Some of life's most enduring mysteries were to be revealed to him. This is the first part of the world's first exclusive mobi-novel. The terrifying 'Harvest''.
'Harvest' - a truly gripping and chilling contemporary horror thriller set in Manchester has become the UK's first novel to be published exclusively on mobile phones. Written by author Jon Ayre, it has been published by GOBSTOPPED, the WAP and website for fiction, humour and cartoons available on all networks. The logistics of how it works are the novel comprises ten chapters and each chapter is split into 5 parts of about 850 words. The 10 chapters are split into two bundles and the consumer pays £4:50 for each bundle just once.
GOBSTOPPED realizes people are not interested in reading long novels on their mobile phones. Similar to the small chapter format of Dan Brown's literary success 'The Da Vinci Code', the small parts of 'Harvest' read so easily and draw you in very quickly -- before you know it you've read half the novel! The convenience of the format and the easy access of the media (your phone) is that you can start and stop chapters or parts as your schedule allows.
Author Jon Ayre: 'Writing for the mobile is different, I have used dialogue much more for plot development than I would normally as it reads easier in the format and I put in some sort of cliffhanger at the end of each individual download to keep the reader hooked and ready to go on to the next part.'
The National Reading Campaign recently commissioned a survey on reading habits with ONS Omnibus that found nearly half of adults had read at least five books or more in the previous 12 months, with almost one in five claiming to have read 20 books or more. At the same time, it is estimated that 72.1% of Western Europe own a mobile phone (Katz & Aakhus) and that over one billion messages of up to 160 characters are sent each month in the UK alone (AOL mobile).
GOBSTOPPED Managing Editor Nick Hirst: 'Increasingly consumers are storing their music on their iPods and mp3 players and are not concerned with the packaging that goes with owning a CD. Now the same can be true for books just keep them on your mobile.'
