A group of mystics is saying that the keys to world peace may be hidden in a vault buried under Colonial Williamsburg's historic Bruton Parish Church.
The group led by Fletcher Richman, a former Williamsburg resident, attempted unsuccessfully to locate the reputed 10-by-10-foot vault previously in 1992.
Believers say the vault includes the writings of Sir Francis Bacon, who they claim was the editor of the King James Version of the Bible and of all plays now attributed to Shakespeare.

Richman said his group is again active because the beginning of World War III or Armageddon is near.
