In this paper, we present our comparative statistical-linguistic analyses both on the Voynich manuscript and on the magical Tables of Liber Loagaeth created by Dr. John Dee and his scryer Edward Kelly. The intriguing, multilateral statistical matches render the investigated sections of these two documents into the same linguistic universality class. This suggests that most likely the Voynich manuscript carries no rationally comprehensible content, offering also a plausible explanation why the ciphertext was unbreakable so far. These inferences together with its fantastic, yet contemporary credible illustrations render the Voynich manuscript most likely an elaborate hoax. Furthermore, our multi-disciplinary investigations point toward Dr. John Dee's possible involvement with the creation of the Voynich manuscript, possibly relying on the medieval character set of Roger Bacon's manuscripts which he vastly possessed.
