In 1977, the clearest photograph of the Loch Ness monster ever taken was revealed in the Daily Mirror. A color photograph of a long neck, rising up out of the water, mouth open, rocked the Fortean world. But as strange and compelling as the photograph was, the photographer himself was on a whole other level. Behind the camera was a hard-drinking bohemian artist, a self-proclaimed magician who billed himself as the “Wizard of the West.” He claimed his occult skills had enabled him to summon Nessie, among other monsters, and he did so with the help of a cabal of witches.
The weird life of the Wizard known as Tony Doc Shiels, and his encounters with a host of lake monsters, witch covens and winged beasts, left an indelible mark on the world of cryptozoology. While his encounters may be of dubious authenticity, Doc Sheils is nevertheless one of the most influential Fortean figures.

Matt
he/him
I work in film and tv, both behind the camera and in the editing room. I’ve been a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians for over 20 years. Since childhood, I’ve been obsessed with cryptids, the paranormal and conspiracy theories. I believe that everything deserves to be explored, and nothing exists in a vacuum. Every belief we hold, every experience we have and every story we tell is influenced by our background, our situation and the world around us.
Favorite horror movies:
Hereditary, Burnt Offerings, His House, Creature from the Black Lagoon, anything Godzilla, The Ritual, Lake Mungo, Underwater, Amityville Horror (1979), Alien, Trollhunter
Favorite horror books/stories:
The Shining, Pickman’s Model, The Yellow Wallpaper, Was it a Dream?, A Headful of Ghosts, the Night Watch series, Crouch End, Something is Killing the Children
If I was a cryptid I’d be:
Either a cadborosaurus, so I’d be able to swim around the ocean, or Mokele-Mbembe because dinosaurs are awesome
Non-paranormal pursuits:
Woodworking, flyfishing, giving treats to cats

As an introvert that thrives on deep, meaningful conversation, I guess I’m a walking paradox. I grew up in a creaky old farmhouse in Upstate New York where I played with frogs and made all the adults call me Macgyver. When I was a kid, I saw something that looked like a sasquatch run through the swamp behind my house. I’m fascinated by what we think we see and what beliefs we hang on to, even as more information comes to us. Let’s get into it.
Favorite horror movies/TV shows:
Parasite, Paranormal Activity, One Cut of the Dead, Hush, Creep, Midnight Mass, Train to Busan, Nope, Midsommar
Favorite horror books/stories:
The Terror, House of Leaves
If I was a cryptid, I’d be:
Bigfoot because you’re always warm, you’re an apex predator, and you live alone in the woods away from people. What more could you ask for??
Non-paranormal pursuits:
Martial arts, knitting/crochet, exploring nature, writing
Quixote and Zuri
