Cynocephali..The Real Dog-Headed Men

As strange and disturbing as it may seem, throughout history, there have been numerous accounts of dog-headed people living in distant lands. You have probably seen images of Cynocephalus before. Cyno means dog and cephalus means of the head. For example you have probably seen images of the Egyptian God Anubis "The God of Death and Embalming." Anubis has been found in Egyptian tombs, and has the body of a man and the head of a jackal, this is clearly a Cynocephalus.

Jack The Ripper Case File Made Public After 136 Years

The identity of notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper remains an unsolved mystery, but now a police file on the infamous case has been made public after 136 years. The killer, who became known as Jack the Ripper after writing a taunting letter to police using the moniker, savagely butchered five prostitutes in Whitechapel, east London, in 1888. Insp. Joseph Henry Helson, who was serving in London’s Metropolitan Police at the time of the murders, maintained and kept the file. the file was passed down through four generations of the Helson family. Now it will go to auction, and it contains a number of artifacts that will likely be seen as collectible to the right bidder. Included in the file are two photographs of Michael Ostrog, an early suspect in the case who was ruled out after his alibi showed he was in the mental asylum of a French prison when the murders happened. The photos have notes on the back listing Ostrog’s aliases, crimina...
