The 100 Prophecies

What if some of history's most famous predictions were more than coincidence? And what if others became "prophecies" only after history had already happened?

For centuries, prophets, mystics, seers, and sacred texts have claimed to offer glimpses of events still to come. Some predictions appear uncannily accurate. Others failed spectacularly. And some of the most famous may never have been authentic predictions at all.

The 100 Prophecies takes readers on a fascinating journey through 100 of history's most mysterious and controversial predictions, examining what was actually predicted, what happened afterward, and how convincing the evidence really is.

Explore the extraordinary claims associated with Nostradamus, Baba Vanga, Edgar Cayce, Alois Irlmaier, biblical prophecy, and other legendary prophetic traditions, including predictions of war, political upheaval, catastrophe, technological change, the end times, and humanity's future.

Inside, you'll discover:

Famous predictions attributed to Nostradamus-and what his original writings actually suggest
The truth behind some of Baba Vanga's most astonishing alleged predictions
Edgar Cayce's documented readings, successes, controversies, and failures
The disturbing future-war visions associated with Alois Irlmaier
Major biblical prophecies from Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel, the Gospels, and Revelation
Predictions that appeared to come true
Predictions that clearly failed
Prophecies whose origins may be misquoted, exaggerated, or fabricated
Famous predictions that remain unresolved
An evidence-based method for separating genuine pre-event predictions from hindsight and legend

Rather than asking you simply to believe-or dismiss-the extraordinary, Jennifer Bale investigates each case through a more revealing question:

Can we prove the prediction existed before the event?

Accessible, mysterious, and thought-provoking, The 100 Prophecies is for readers fascinated by Nostradamus, Baba Vanga, biblical prophecy, psychics and seers, unexplained history, future predictions, and the enduring mystery of what may still lie ahead.

Some predictions failed. Some became legends. Some remain difficult to explain. And some have yet to meet their future.
