Merry Xmas to all followers...my collaborators..my family & friends!
It's been a wonderfully productive & spooky year & I've met some fascinating individuals & talked with old friends & colleagues about all manner of spookiness!
Wishing you all the best for the festive season!
For all my sceptical explanations...for all my critique of the case...it is this ending that really gets me. This is the human part of the case that you cannot step away from. Very sad.

Good evening
@Everymanchelt
and
#Cheltenham
!
Looking forward to a fascinating evening
@uncannypodlive
...and hearing local ghost stories in a town with some famous historical apparitions!
The Oxford Exorcism is a fitting
#Uncanny
finale to this mini-series. A three-episode mini-series is far too short. I have no doubt it will be back.
It was an excellent episode, and to have friends reunited after so long is a joy to behold.
I actually found myself agreeing
Huge congratulations to someone I've known for 15 yrs+ who has gone from long hours
@MenChocFactory
laughing at a pantomime horse to the wonderful success that such a creative talent deserves!
#HappyBirthday
to "The High Priest of the Paranormal", the "Contemporary Van Helsing"
Thank you to everyone wishing me "Happy Birthday!" today!
I should be working but couldn't help delving into my new edition presents...and displaying the ghostly gifts created by my children!

A colourful evening
@OxfordPlayhouse
counter to the dark and creepy stories you'll hear later if you're in the audience!
Can you see the ghost though?!
#UncannyCommunity
Was chatting to a colleague about how lucky I am to have haunted locations on my doorstep.
He said "Are there any doorsteps in England without haunted locations?"

"Wherever people have lived, laughed and loved there is potential for ghosts" (Quote by me)
For those enthralled with the latest episode of

, you may be interested to hear about the Vardøger - a spirit predecessor in Scandinavian folklore.
Now whose creeped out...?! 😱😨

Kicking off Sat eve with 28 Days Haunted. I'm a sucker for ghosthunting shows!
My new fav quote: "If the investigators can find a way to persevere & withstand the full 28 days, it's believed the barrier between the living & dead will become virtually non-existent"
WTF! 😱👻😝
Anyone else watching (or watched on
@BBCiPlayer
) "Paranormal: The Girl, the Ghost & the Gravestone" on
@bbcthree
?
Thoughts?
Having been an active member of
@SPR1882
back in the late 1990s & early 2000s I'm very familiar with the case...but will hold off analysis for now...
I've had endless debates with the team about whether
@ciaranokeeffe
has the harder job as head of
#TeamSceptic
or
@_EvelynHollow
has the harder job as head of
#TeamBeliever
and can only conclude that they both have difficult jobs! And they do them brilliantly.
#HappyNewYear
to all my amazing followers! Whether your support has been

or

-like or

-themed...I'm grateful.
And equally to all my amazing collaborators in 2022. I'm grateful for all the opportunities you've given me. Thank you!

I'll be joining the

I'll be waxing lyrical about my

research
@_BNUni
& enlightening audiences on lovely

phenomena for

experiences.
My personal favourites are: hypnopompic hallucinations & phantosmia 👻😱
A skeptical

show in which I tackle the weird & wonderful: guests, experts, the good and bad of

, evidence analysis, demonology, science etc. If you think there's something in it please RT so production/TV companies out there can see there's interest.
"Have a holiday," they said
They didn't reckon on kids not going to sleep, neighbours chatting loudly 2am outside window, paper thin walls & hearing every movt when eldest 2 turned in their beds...disturbed by the noisy neighbours, on youngest being up at 4.30am!
#NeedAHoliday
Excited to announce the release of my co-authored book later this year: "Ghosted!: Exploring the Haunting Reality of Paranormal Encounters" published by
@McFarlandCoPub
Excited, also, that it is the Winner of the
@ParapsychF
"D. Scott Rogo Award for Parapsychological Media"!
Yesterday/Today just over 40 years ago, it all started...definitely one to revisit on a truly skeptical show, to hear all sides of the debate.
#Enfield
#Poltergeist
When first seeing this poster in Spooky Mulder's office back in 1993 (when I was in USA), who would've thought it would become a key theme of the day, the week, the month...?
Thanks to
@danny_robins
for triggering this wonderful revelation!
Do listen NOW!

Case 7 of
#Uncanny
is out now! And it's a UFO...
Come with me into a dark forest in 1980 to try and uncover the mystery of what a group of American Air Force personnel saw!

Been battling a severe bout of labyrinthitis...(thank you for all the well-wishes)
...am looking forward to turning the corner and going ghosthunting again soon!

Excited to be collaborating with a renowned neurologist in North America on an alternative understanding for demonic possession.
Something I've been researching for about 5 years (as my many "Exorcism & Possession" students will be aware of!)

Where is the scariest?
Is it a house in NY whose story spawned a book & countless movies?
Or a house in Battersea plagued by a relentless poltergeist?
Or a house in DC where priests battled a demonic possession?
Or a farmhouse in the Brecon Beacons?
Lots of interest here about my proposal for a truly skeptical
#paranormal
show. Some great
#paranormal
figures out there who could make amazing contributions or be involved at the "ideas" stage.

Lesson
#1
: Your ears perceive what they want. I've heard many ghost accounts where the experiencee says there was a dog barking outside (or even inside). How do you know it was a dog? How do you know? Listen to this video and be amazed.
