(Redirected from Fate Magazine)
'Fate' is a magazine of paranormal phenomena, published since 1948.
It was founded by Raymond A. Palmer (editor of ''Amazing Stories'') and Curtis Fuller.
''Fate'' is claimed to be the world's leading magazine of the paranormal. Started in 1948, it has published expert opinions and personal experiences relating to UFOs, psychic abilities, ghosts and hauntings, cryptozoology, alternative medicine, and Fortean phenomena for a devoted readership worldwide.
Established in 1948 by Clark Publishing Company, the first edition of ''Fate'' hit world newsstands in the Spring. Co-founded by Ray Palmer, editor of the ''Amazing Stories'' magazine, and Curtis Fuller, an accomplished editor in his own right, the magazine's inaugural edition featured an article by Kenneth Arnold who recounted in it his amazing UFO encounter in 1947. Arnold's sighting marked the beginning of the modern UFO era, and his story propelled the fledgling ''Fate'' to national recognition.
Curtis Fuller and his wife Mary took full control of ''Fate'' in 1955, when Palmer sold his interest in the venture. The Fullers expanded the magazine's focus, and increased readership to well over 100,000 subscribers.
''Fate'' was sold to Llewellyn Publications in 1988. In his farewell column, Curtis Fuller wrote, "Our purpose throughout this long time has been to explore and to report honestly the strangest facts of this strange world and the ones that don't fit into the general beliefs of the way things are."
''Fate'' underwent a facelift in 1994, when Llewellyn decided to change it from digest size to a full size, full color magazine.
The magazine celebrated its 50th year of publication in 1998. When asked to comment on how a magazine like ''Fate'' had beat the odds and survived through five decades, Carl Llewellyn Weschcke said, "No product, especially a magazine, can stay around for fifty years unless it meets a need. ''Fate'' recognizes that the impossible can be possible; we explore the unknown so that it can be known."
September of 2001 marked the beginning of a new era for the long-running magazine, as Phyllis Galde, Editor-in-Chief, took over publication. Galde has continued ''Fate's'' reporting of unusual events and active reader involvement in shaping the content of the magazine.
May 2003 marked a return to the familiar, friendly, digest-size ''Fate.''
