A Kiwi true crime author has uncovered some of New Zealand's greatest mysteries in a new book.
Scott Bainbridge's book New Zealand Mysteries details strange sightings, inexplicable experiences and unusual crimes that have happened in Aotearoa.
One tells the story of an aircraft crew who reported a series of UFO sightings while flying above Kaikoura.
Despite a film crew being on the flight and getting footage, an official report couldn't pin down the cause of the mysterious flashing lights.
Another tells the tale of supposed crop circles near Ngātea which caused years of debate among locals.
And that's just the beginning of our mysterious tales. There are reports of ghosts in Wellington's St James Theatre, a Bigfoot in the Coromandel and the strange disappearance of all crew and cargo from a boat bound for Tokelau.
