The fairies include the leprechauns - there being several different types - and the druids, who may also be descended from these ancient peoples. What is the history of fairies and druids? Did they really exist? There are stories about all of these beings who may have all been interrelated. Information on “the Otherworld” is also included. It is supposed to be a realm where these beings all originated and can return to.

The American South has given birth to many of the nation's great stories and legends. From the earliest Colonial times, it's been a place of mystery, replete with disappearing colonies and strange apparitions in the woods, but the South's long and proud history has always had a darker, and stranger, side to it. One of America's most famous mysteries was its first. Despite the fact he had left over 100 colonists at the island of Roanoke in 1587, John White returned to literally nothing, with all traces of the settlement gone.

There are legends of little people all over the world. Even more interesting is that a race of very small people, who were close to three feet tall, were uncovered recently in Indonesia. This race is called the Flores Man, and was of a similar size to the beings in many of the legends of the little people. In this audiobook, we cover these little beings from different areas of the world. This includes where they came from; stories about them possibly coming from different dimensions, and stories about sightings of them.

Urban legends are thought by most to be tall tales passed down through the ages. Some of the stories are obviously make believe, while others, as strange as they may seem, have their origins in actual events. Do alligators roam the dark tunnels deep beneath New York City?

These are just a few of the urban legends that are explored in this book.

The Hindu epic poem Mahabharata by itself is 10 times longer than both the Iliad and Odyssey combined.

Ireland has a rich folklore. Everyone knows about the fairy folk and leprechauns and many have heard of the fearsome banshee. There are also the usual ghost stories found in every old land.

Taking meta-realist allegory to new heights! Stifled for 50 years - the facts behind the "Fall of Man". The Zandernatis Trinity, based on the ancient Haakon Urn texts discovered under the Antarctic ice in 1962, culminates with the events described in the epic "Song of Gorin" saga that shaped the future of a whole civilization - and ultimately our own.

Next to Joseph Smith, Brigham Young is one of the best known Mormon leaders and perhaps the most important. After Smith's death, it was Young who led Mormon pioneers westward in a journey that the Latter Day Saints often likened to the Exodus, and Young became popular as "American Moses". At the same time, Young and his group were involved in a seemingly never ending list of controversies, both of their own making and the misconceptions of so many Americans who were unfamiliar with the religion.

The name Pontius Pilate is instantly familiar to anyone who has read the Bible or has heard of the passion of Christ, but the man himself has mostly eluded biblical scholars and historians. As the Roman prefect in Judaea during Christ's life and death, Pilate played a central role in the ultimate crucifixion of Jesus, but he is best remembered for literally washing his hands as a symbol that he did not consider the blood to be on his hands.
