Disadvantages: not at all good newsagents

If you are looking for a magazine about strange phenomena but not necessarily the grotesque, 'Fortean Times' may be for you. This monthly publication is a fine mix of the irreverant and interesting that can embrace Alien Bloodsuckers, Crop Circles, New World Order Conspiracy Theory, Falling Frogs, UFO's, Weeping Statues, Winged Cats, Zombies and a myriad of other paranormal happenings from around the globe in one issue. It's openminded philosophy that sees science as theory, not fact, comes from the work of Charles Hoy Fort (1874-1932); writer, researcher, philosopher, and inventor of the term 'teleportation'.
I have been an regular reader of 'Fortean Times' magazine for almost seven years now. If you enjoy the 'mad world' column of the Big Issue then you will love Fortean Times. It's not as laddish as Bizarre magazine, nor as exclusively intellectual as Nature. It's a kind of hot cocoa for the curious; with a dash of weirdness whisky to fortify the soul.
