During the two decades of it’s existence, this volunteer group of researchers and investigators delved deep in the waters of the ignored, the ridiculed, and the unexplained. The Fortean Research Center was founded in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1982 to honor and continue Fort’s work. Author of The Book of the Damned, New Lands, Lo!, and Wild Talents, Fort was a master cataloguer of the weird, the unexplained and the bizarre which the scientific establishment of his day chose to ignore and ridicule. Charles Hoy Fort (1874-1932) was as fascinating a man as one could hope to find.
