2024 – Anomaly Academy Lecture Events
In both 1998 and 2004, Jon traveled to the island of Puerto Rico in search of the deadly, blood-sucking creature known as the Chupacabras – a beast that has been linked with a large amount of UFO activity, including UFO crashes, on the island.
Jon spoke to the Anomaly Archives audience about his two expeditions, findings, theories and conclusions as to what the creature may be. Jon will also reveal the very latest news on his quest to find out the truth concerning the so-called Texas Chupacabras, aka Texas Blue Dogs. Are the beasts of Puerto Rico and Texas one and the same? Or, is something even stranger going on?

Inaugural Anomaly Academy Monthly Lecture
June 29th, 2024: Brent Raynes, at 7pm CST
“Brent Raynes: A Lifetime of Exploring the UFO mystery and its psychic components”
“Brent began Alternate Perceptions back in 1985 as simply a 4-page newsletter entitled ParaUFOlogy Forum. It has come a long way since it’s early beginning. In 1993, good friend and colleague Dr. Gregory Little, who had been contributing articles from the get-go, came onboard as a publisher and co-editor, and pretty soon it was a very professionally done color cover magazine of some 58 pages, with distributors from coast to coast and up into Canada. Then around 2000, we followed the growing trend and moved the magazine, that had become Alternate Perceptions, onto the internet. Brent has been researching and investigating the unexplained since January 1967, at age 14, and is the author of Visitors from Hidden Realms, On the Edge of Reality, and John A. Keel: The Man, The Myths, and the Ongoing Mysteries.”
AP Magazine – Alternate Perceptions Magazine: An alternative way to explore and explain the mysteries of our world. “Published since 1985, online since 2001.”
