The Occultopedia website presents the
supernatural and the paranormal — as does Investigator Magazine — but in
addition we also get everything "occult and unexplained".
The
home page says:
Occultopedia
is the genuine article, the original and the best internet index of the
extraordinary and uncanny, shamelessly copied by many, but never
equaled. Online since 1995 … Occultopedia still is the principal online
resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the
unusual.
The
author, "Marcus", attended universities in Brazil and USA and "as a
young man he spent a couple of years in the Amazon basin…"

Occultopedia describes many
beliefs; has links to other websites; includes lists of books and
references; and offers items for sale; but is short on skepticism and
criticism:
Occultopedia does not promote or
discredit beliefs and opinions about any of the topics encompassing the
occult sciences and the paranormal, but only describes the rich variety
of anomalous, unexplained, sometimes totally bizarre phenomena, and
informs as for the meaning of the words and terms, providing clear
definitions and understanding.
Occultopedia has a
describing/defining/reporting agenda. Investigator
in contrast
publishes criticism and debates so that nothing of a seeming paranormal
nature is endorsed unless it survives scrutiny.
