==Features==
28 Fortfoolery: Forteana and April Fools Hoaxes (cover story)<br />While gathering in this year's spaghetti harvest, '''[[Rob Gandy]]''' was struck by the fact that a significant number of April Fool pranks over the decades have featured fortean themes - from fake UFOs to cryptozoological creatures - in their attempts to put one over on the public...

34 The Corpse Factory<br />'Fake News' is nothing new and false stories were widely spread by propagandists during World War I. '''[[David Clarke]]''' investigates a gruesome rumour of factories for converting human corpses into fat and oil that has been called the "most appalling atrocity story" of the 1914-18 conflict.

40 Faking Forteana<br />Manufactured and misleading news predates the Internet age. Its roots go back in part to the 1920s, and a forgotten journalistic revolution improbably conceived by 'the father of modern bodybuilding' and a socialist muckraker. '''[[Mike Dash]]''' dons his fedora to report.

46 Searching for the Place of the Skull<br />As pilgrims descend on the Holy Land to celebrate Easter, '''[[Ted Harrison]]''' proffers a word of caution: if you're looking for the location of Jesus's crucifixion and burial then, tradition aside, you need to investigate a growing list of competing sites. Just where exactly was Golgotha?
