Myths lead us to perilous adventures in search of money and fame. Will it be possible to find the treasure or will the voyages end in failure?
Ever wonder if Noah’s Ark actually exists, or if the Holy Grail’s supernatural powers provide eternal youth? For some, these seeming legends are an authentic reality. MYTH HUNTERS tells the gripping adventures of the ultimate quest seekers who believe in the myths and are on a mission to prove their historical accuracy.
In human history, the boundaries between reality and myth are not always clear. What is fact, what is fantasy? In the 13-part series “Myth Hunters” adventurers go in search of answers. American creationists follow in the footsteps of Noah’s Ark, a Stasi officer goes on a hunt for the Amber Room, and Heinrich Himmler sends SS man Otto Skorzeny to Greenland to find nothing less than the Holy Grail. Myth Hunters Season 1 features the true stories of quests to discover legendary objects…The Da Vinci Code meets Indiana Jones!
From the Nazis’ search for the Holy Grail, to the Americans who hunted for pirate treasure in Vietnam; from the true story of the crystal skulls to the mystery of King Solomon’s mines – this series uncovers the truth behind some of the most fabulous, romantic and deranged treasure hunts in modern history. Includes all 13 episodes from Season 1
Part 8: The Hunt for the Book of Spells
It’s one of the most influential books ever written. It’s said to have inspired early Freemasons, to provide the wisdom behind the Tarot and to have underpinned a string of 20th century esoteric cults. Yet after years of looking for it nobody has ever found the original text.
According to legend, the Egyptian god Thoth gave the Book of Thoth to the people. With its help, the future can be predicted. The Greeks incorporated a version of the book into their culture, the Christians rejected it as pagan. In the 17th century it supposedly influenced Freemasons, in the 18th century tarot card readers. Finally, in the 20th century, the flower power movement of the 1960s was based on its content. But since the actual book has not yet been found, it is doubtful that it ever really existed.
