Sean, Editor

What is happening in the

paranormal world?

Anyone who has a social

media account for

themselves or for their team

is witness every day to what is

happening.

Every post to do with

anything paranormal is in the

firing line, things seem to be

getting out of control.

Para-wars are very real and

are escalating into a huge

problem in todays social me-

dia, we all hear stories about

cyber bullies every day and

that‟s exactly what is going

on.

Lets start with paranormal event

companies, there really does seem

to be a new one appearing on a

weekly basis, all these companies

are obviously going to be in

competition with each other, there

are afterall only so many venues to

investigate.

Many of the event companies out

there seem to like the fact they

have „exclusive‟ rights to a few

venues and promote this point.

These companies are

businesses and are in

competition with each other

but by gaining „exclusives‟ on

venues they are not only

stopping their competitors or

normal paranormal teams

going to these venues but they

are losing the venue themselves

money.

Many of the prices these event

companies charge too are un-

believeable, yes they earn a liv-

ing from hosting the events but

when they have 3 or 4 events

each night all over the country

and are making well in excess

of £1000 profit at each event it

is easy to see why more and

more event companies are

cropping up each week.

Recent events last year

concerning one such company

just shows what can happen

when people try to cash in on

the paranormal boom.

All of these companies claiming

they are the best etc etc is just

the tip of the Para-wars

epidemic.

Paranormal Investigator, Ghost

Hunter, Paranormal Research-

er, Paranormal Scientist, Para-

normal Consultant, the list of

things people call themselves is

endless and seems to be where

it all starts, what we call

ourselves, people appear to be

attempting to call themselves

anything but ghost hunters

recently and some are attacking

those that do still call themselves

such as amateurs and accuse

them of just playing or only in it

because they saw the

programmes on TV.

There seems to be all sort of

new name connotations now in

an attempt to sound more

professional and knowledgeable,

which in itself is not a problem

its when these people then

attempt to live up to their cho-

sen name by picking on others.

A classic situation is the „orb‟

this is far to a lengthy debate to

go into here but its enough to

say that opinion is certainly

divided on the subject, the

problem occurs when a photo of

an orb is posted on social media

and the anti-orb people attack

the poster with the dust, bugs,

moisture claims. Now healthy

debate is a great thing to have

but unfortunately like many

things within the

paranormal can all to often

lead to explosive and many

times abusive arguments.

We all have our opinions

and it is our right to voice

that opinion, the problem

occurs when we declare our

opinion as the only one that

counts.

I‟m sure we have all seen or

even been victim to „the

bully‟ who declares that

they are correct and „know‟

for a „fact‟ what they are

looking at in either photo‟s

or videos and state their

point with uncalled for

aggression, sometimes

resorting to name calling

and even threats.

This is the type of

behaviour that is holding

things back in our chosen

field.

It even comes down to the

way that we investigate,

many people/teams

declaring that theirs is the

proper way to do it. Surely

if everyone did it the same

way then things would not

move forward and new

techniques would not be

found, we are all

individuals and we should

bring this to our ways of

investigating.

Ego seems to be a big

problem in the paranormal

and the green eyed

monster that is jealousy, is

it the case that when

somebody puts what is

actually good evidence out

there others try their best

to dismiss it and even

resort to the abusive

behaviour simply because

they wish it was them who

had caught it?

There are many

individuals and teams out

there who will not put any

of their findings out for

everyone to see because of

Previous abuse.

This is so out of order.

Surely everyone should be able

to put out there whatever

evidence they want without fear

of someone throwing torrents of

abuse at them just because they

don't like it, it has to stop.

Para Unity if an often touted

phrase which in the current

climate is nothing but words.

It will never be achieved in my

opinion due to the amount of

bullying that is going on, forcing

of opinions and ideas on others

is not what its all about.

Working together to take the

paranormal forward is what we

should ALL be aiming for, we

should be sharing ideas and new

discoveries, sharing our findings

with each other without fear of

abuse.

We need to work together to

stamp out these bullies before we

can move forward.

At the end of the day we are inves-

tigating the unknown so there is no

100% answers as yet found, we all

have our own ideas about various

aspects of the paranormal and

should never try to force this on

anyone else, there is a definite line

between offering advice to those

with less experience and telling

them they are wrong and your way

is the right way or you ‟know‟ what

you are looking at.

Lets please stop the abuse and try

to help each other in a civilised

and friendly manner, remember if

you don't like what you see don't

attack the person, just move on

unless you can do it nicely.

Weirdy beardy

As far back as I can remember

I've felt things, emotion way

beyond my capability.

I don't see them as in the "I see

dead people sense " but if there's

an entity, a feeling I seem to be a

very good receptor.

I currently live in a building

formally a yarn shop, since

moving in an aroma lingers in the

hallway of cigarette smoke, sense

of a quiet soul. a voyeur, a Seer.

Dead eyes interrogate me as I

sleep in the cloaked

darkness, a sense of complete

and utter desperate nothingness.

Not a clever word or one created

to promote a sense of

atmosphere, but one that those

who have experienced

nothingness can only truly

appreciate its hopelessness,

a word its primitive and casual

use .

Nothingness proceeds every

human emotional state, when

there is no more, happiness,

anger, jealousy even depression.

Nothingness is the calm before

the storm, this is what I feel, after

all sentiment has left they leave

this, a contradictory trail of

something which is nothing,

a void, a tide of regret, sense of

well being and weirdly enough

hope.

Hope. When there is death?

I had never heard of such an

idea, the entity residing in my

home appeared before me in a

strange dream, aggravated, angry

and searching for an object it

hoped to find.

I suffer from night terrors, I

cannot tell the difference

between nightmares and reality,

I relay this information as I

believe a reader should be

informed.

The night terror showed me this

spirit who was desperate to find

its treasured article, objects were

thrown with real consequences.

The story ends with no answers,

no reasoning, just a night

terrorised victim unable to sleep,

again the visitors have left as

quickly as they have arrived.

However with this in mind how

can a sane soul sleep again?

The night looms in without doubt

while silently drifting in and

dancing amongst the ashes of a

dreamers dream, there's no

comfort in the darkness's

embrace, no comfort.

E.V.P E.V.P. Electronic Voice

Phenomena or Elucidating

Vibrational Play-back?

This is a subject which has me

bouncing back and forth as to

exactly what makes up a

tangible E.V.P.

Evidence regarding the truth

and accuracy of this form of

information gathering is sketchy

at best. For centuries intrepid

investigators have gained

recordings which are believed

to be from those beyond the

veil of the living.

Whether electronically

recorded onto cassette tapes or

compact discs the argument has

raged through the centuries as

to their relevance and

authenticity in proving life after

death.

E.V.P experimentation really

took hold within the mid 1800‟s

when Thomas Edison

highlighted his belief that spirit

energies would find it easier to

communicate via a sensitive

recording device over them

actually being required to move

an object.

Thomas‟ hypothesis had medi-

ums and other intrigued individ-

uals experimenting in an effort to

find the one item which could

prove that interaction with lost

loved ones was possible.

As we all know, we are still no

closer scientifically in knowing if

there is definitely life after death.

Although many paranormal

teams utilise “Ghost boxes” or

SB7 boxes (both devices used

to constantly sweep radio

frequencies without pause.) the

readings which are provided

when the experimenter listens

to the white noise cycling;

where an occasional unclear

word could be heard, are, in

my opinion, subject to

interpretation.

The Stoke

Haunted team

have put this

theory to the

test by having

each team

member

using only a pen

and piece of

paper to write

down what they

thought they

had heard.

Of course there are the few

instances where everybody‟s

words matched (despite them

not conversing during the

period of experimentation);

however, it was more apparent

that the collective could not

agree on what they had heard

and what word was the right

response.

It is my belief; and not one

necessarily held by the Stoke

Haunted team or any of its

members, that each person

could attribute a distorted vocal

output into something which fits

into their daily

lives.

It is my

conviction that

life style,

acceptance to

the possibility

that there could

be life after

death, vulnera-

bility, emotional

mood and the

desire to hear something tangible

drives our brains to link

information fragments together

until they conform to something

which we think that we can

understand.

It is all subject to personal

interpretation.

All series and models of ghost

boxes cycle through radio

bandwidths at a phenomenal

rate. Is it inconceivable that the

various radio stations may emit

a partial word which will fall in

line with another wordy

fragment given from a different

station so that creates the sound

of one full word over an

elongated cycle frame?

Imagine if you will:-

You have three wheels of

similar size and shape. Paint an

arrow facing north on each

whilst they are all still. Once all

three arrows are painted spin

each wheel at a different rate.

How often will those wheels all

reach the North position at the

same time? Infrequently I can

assure you. Could the same

principles be attributed to the

various “Ghost box” devices

and their inner workings?

I am not saying that the

equipment works in the simplis-

tic description above, and I am

no technical genius either so

my theory holds no real weight.

I could be utterly wrong. If you

were to leave the devices running

unhindered for an hour how likely

is it that you will hear a complete

word?

I am not for one moment indicat-

ing that the millions of paranormal

teams worldwide should steer

clear or abandon the use of this

item of ghostly equipment. No. I

am merely highlighting my own

views about the matter.

Contaminants are around every

corner and it is our responsibilities

as researchers to manage them

where possible.

Where management is not

possible then it is vital that we take

note of the possible pollutants and

how they may affect your research.

With the gathering of E.V.P‟s it‟s

worth noting what type of

equipment you used; audio tape

or digital hard-drive.

Regardless of what device you

used, if you gain potential

evidence you will need to

establish whether the piece of kit

was laid/held next to some form

of a magnet during your

investigation – magnets can

completely ruin tapes and digital

hard-drives and what they may

contain.

If someone uses the same tape

over and over again; regardless

of how the tape may have been

formatted, it is possible that

trace evidence of previous uses

may remain.

If that should happen it is plausi-

ble that sounds from two or

more uses before could remain

and tarnish your current

recordings.

Again, the proper application of

an evaluation will help prevent

future occurrences or assist you in

ascertaining true facts.

Each piece of kit has its part to

play in the exploration of the

paranormal world.

Each item whether it be a K2

meter of a laser thermometer

allows the user to measure their

surrounding atmosphere which is

imperative should they want to

provide facts to a scientific body at

a later stage.

The Ghost box and digital

recorders are no different.

If we accept each piece of kit for

what it is, a tool for

measurement, our evidence will

gradually collate over time and

your investigations will become

more stream-lined.

No one person; or team, should

rely solely on what kit they may

carry. The mark of a true

investigator is being able to

balance both science and

observation to determine and

evaluate their application and

results.

Be alert. Be objective. Be safe!

Trance MediumshipTrance MediumshipTrance Mediumship Trance Mediumship/Physical

Mediumship

Making contact with those in the

spirit world can be achieved by

many methods but in trance,

channeling, overshadowing or

inspired speaking and

transfiguration, the medium and

their guide blend together their

energies as one. It is perhaps the

closest form of communication

between spirit guides and the

medium.

Inspired Speaking

This is when the spirit guide

directs the medium in what to

say. Mediums who give

clairvoyant readings in

spiritualist churches may do a

talk or philosophy. This is

usually inspired speaking and

can be on any subject, they start

to speak and their guide for, this

is usually inspired speaking and

they are inspired our guided as

to what to say by their guide.

Overshadowing

This overshadowing can make

the medium feel as if their

features or bodily form are

changing from the norm, or that

they have taken a step back and

someone else is trying to steer

their thoughts and speech.

Full Trance

This is perhaps the more well

known form of spirit trance

communication and is when the

full co-operation of the medium

is used.

In this form the medium will

spend a few moments attuning

to their guide, before seemingly

falling off to sleep.

The medium gives permission

to the guide to blend with them

and fully take over the use of

their body. Their are various

signs of full trance, such as

rapid eye movement,

movement of the mouth,

breathing rate slowing down.

After a brief period the

medium will have become an

instrument for the guide, the

guide being able to use his/ her

voice directly.

The medium has simply

withdrawn to allow the spirit

communicator through some

mediums are unaware of the

words spoken by their guide,

some have an agreement with

their guide that they will be able

to remember or know the words

that have been spoken.

The spirit guide will share his

knowledge and teachings, for he

is in direct contact with those

about him.

Questions are often asked and

indeed the communicating

guide will often invite them.

The mediums appearance,

body, face and voice, accent

and mannerisms will change to

that of their guide.

The more that the medium

works in this state with their

guide the more the blending

can take place and the more

clearly the guides physical

features/voice/mannerisms will

appear.

A truly tranced medium will not

be stuck for answers to

questions, though we may not

always hear what we expect.

Transfiguration

With transfiguration the face of

a spirit person can be seen

forming over the mediums face/

body.

It is best to do this mediumship

in a red light so the ectoplasm

can form over the sitters faces

without being destroyed.

The faces can be very clear at

times, with the mediums face

completely disappearing.

On other occasions many faces

can appear over a mediums face

quite rapidly but each one is

distinct from each other.

Features can be see, jewelry,

clothing type, hair type etc.

This type of physical

mediumship is usually done by

experienced physical mediums

who have a strong connection

with their guides and

understanding of mental and

physical

mediumship.

People do fear

trance or

physical

mediumship, if

they have not

experienced it

before or seen

it demonstrated.

It is one of the most used

forms of mediumship in

Victorian times.

A true blending of guide and

medium is a wonderful thing

to see demonstrated and to do

as a physical medium.

The most well-known spirit

guide to communicate through

their medium whilst in trance

is Silver Birch, through the

mediumship of Maurice

Barbanell.

Other famous trance mediums

in history have been Helen

Duncan and Gordon

Higginson, both who worked

tirelessly for spirit throughout

their physical lives.

When first working with

physical mediumship or trance

mediumship, an experienced

physical medium should always

be present to help both the

medium sitting for

trance and their

guide through this

process.

Their should be

great care taken

with the guide and

the medium at a

guided and controlled pace.

Care is also needed to make

sure that the medium is not

touched or shocked during

trance as this can be physically

harmful to them.

Therefore it is essential that

guidance is taken before

attempting full trance.

There are trance workshops

held where mediums are given

the opportunity to experience

this side of mediumship in a

controlled environment where

they are looked after and cared

for as they work with spirit in

this way.

When sitting for physical

mediumship people report

temperature changes in the

room, often with the

temperature dropping and it

feeling a lot colder in the room.

Physical mediumship energy is

a lot denser feeling than the

lighter energy used when work-

ing with mental mediumship,

(clairvoyance).
