The world is a lot stranger than we've been led to think. Jolly Olde England, in particular, seems to have more than its share of oddities, and
Mysterious Britain peeks into a few of them for us. Three sections--one each on standing stones and ley lines, hauntings, and Loch Ness--comprise a fascinating trilogy that is alternately scholarly, poetic, and spooky. Interviews with such experts on the paranormal as Colin Wilson, bizarre documentary footage, and new film of the gorgeous British countryside complement the witty narration. Despite a few experts' proclamations,
Mysterious Britain provides no final assessment of the reality of these phenomena, but does show evidence to puzzle the skeptic and the believer alike. The truth, so they say, is out there.
