Some Devilish Videos You May Have Missed

      I note that the largest number of my (admittedly small) set of readers come from the United States. It is therefore likely that most are unfamiliar with Australian YouTube influencers. One of these is the pretty commentator, Daisy Cousens. Then, one day in 2024 she paused from vlogging on social and political matters and produced a 15 minute clip entitled, "Is Mental Illness Caused by Demons?" 

A Canadian Indian Levitation

     I began this blog with the intention of rescuing "lost" or "forgotten" reports of the paranormal: accounts, apparently genuine, squirreled away in old books or magazines which the rest of the world has passed by. This story certainly fits that category. It has also been my philosophy that, although you should never accept anything until it has been bolstered by a second report, you should not reject anything just because it is fantastic or unbelievable. There is always the slight possibility that it is part of a rare but genuine phenomenon, and one day a second example will arrive. But it you have rejected the first, then the evidence will not accumulate. This story also fits that category. I don't know what to make of it, except that it should be recorded for posterity's sake.

"Paranormal Planet"

     If you keep your eyes and mind open, you will find that the paranormal, the miraculous, the simply inexplicable not only happen, but are not even uncommon. If you haven't had an experience which defies the paradigm of modern science, which appears to violate the laws of nature that we know, then you know somebody who has. Four years ago I published a book entitled, Apparitions: tulpas, ghosts, fairies, and even stranger things, which goes further than simple ghost stories, but explores a parallel world of non-material beings which is only occasionally perceptible to us. Now I have produced a companion volume entitled simply, Paranormal Planet in which I seek to document and explore more than a dozen aspects of the paranormal which do not involve apparitions

Bless This House

     Put yourself in these shoes: you are just about to be ordained, your wife is expecting your first child, and you have been assigned to your first parish as a curate, or assistant priest. And the house the church provides for you is haunted!
