About the Museum
The Museum of Hoaxes is dedicated to promoting knowledge about hoaxes. (Click here for opening hours, etc.) On our blog we post about dubious- sounding claims, and whatever else strikes our fancy. The site is also home to the Hoaxipedia (the museum's online encyclopedia of hoaxes), the Hoax Forum, and the Top 100 April Fools' Day Hoaxes.
The museum was created in 1997 by Alex Boese. He's assisted by a staff of deputy curators and docents. Alex is the author of three books, most recently Elephants on Acid: And Other Bizarre Experiments (which has nothing to do with hoaxes). Check out the list of the Top 20 Most Bizarre Experiments of All Time for a preview.

A Real ‘What Is It?‘
Stephen Wagner, over at About.com's Paranormal Phenomena Blog, reports that this picture of a very weird looking creature has been circulating via email. So is the creature real, or is it photoshopped? After some research, Stephen discovered that the creature is real. It's a deep-sea creature known as the Longnosed Chimera.
Listed in chronological order. Newest comments at the end.

Posted by Jenny in Wisconsin on Sat Jul 03, 2004 at 11:02 AMit's kind of cute! if it lives in the bottom of the sea, what's it doing on the tile of some guy's floor?
Posted by john in NH on Sat Jul 03, 2004 at 07:19 PMIt is a given that there should be more unknown life forms deeper into the ocean.
Posted by The Mexx on Sun Jul 04, 2004 at 06:38 PMFascinating. You just know someone is going to seize on this to "prove" that there's a breeding population of dinosaurs in Scotland.
Posted by Czar Chasm on Tue Jul 06, 2004 at 11:18 AMit's obviously a longnosed chimera. no wait! now I see: it's a cross between a pteranodon and a herring. (you have to look close, it's easy to confuse it with a longnosed chimera.)
