Dr. Barry Taff, a parapsychologist with UCLA’s lab experience (1969–78), investigated 4,000+ cases—including Doris Byther’s Culver City haunting (1974)—where iron skillets flew and green masses moved without detectable energy, suggesting psychokinesis tied to stress-sensitive individuals. He links poltergeists to temporal lobe epilepsy, speculates on consciousness beyond physical bodies via NDEs, and dismisses alien invasion theories as speculative, though he acknowledges reverse-engineered UFO tech like Lockheed’s magnetoplasma drive. Callers share precognitive events (e.g., Kurt’s 1996 tire theft) and EVPs, while Taff warns against hasty conclusions, citing hoaxes like Amityville. Bell’s abrupt ending leaves listeners pondering whether paranormal phenomena hint at deeper truths—like time travel or hidden dimensions—beyond conventional science. [Automatically generated summary]
Beginning in November, KAOI in Maui, Maui, Hawaii.
I'd also also like to announce KXLY in Spokane, Washington.
Wonderful to have you aboard.
They began last night, I heard.
Gunnersville, Alabama, WGSV, may start tonight.
So I would like to welcome those affiliates on board.
There are many, many, many in the hopper, but we're not going to read about them until we actually have them signed, sealed, delivered, and on the air, as it were.
Okay, we have two rules for this program.
No bad language, and only one call per show, and that's not many rules, is it?
Now, I want to again say, as I did last night, that if you don't go and see the Martian, you're crazy.
I mean, if you like science, if you like space, if you like space and science, there's no way to go wrong.
Every part of it was perfect.
The acting, the actors and actresses.
The story itself was superb to go along with these superb CGI.
So The Martian, it's got to be the movie of the year.
It better be, or I'll be upset.
But, you know, I'm upset most years.
Last year, I think it was Birdman, and I couldn't believe it.
I thought Bernie did not do as well as I thought he might have.
I thought Hillary did as well as you would expect her to do.
She's very practiced.
And I don't have much more to say about it than that.
I watched it.
My interest in, I reminded myself why I'm not that interested in politics.
The Russian military intervention to prop up Syria's government has brought new scrutiny of the CIA's secret support to Syrian rebels fighting Bashar al-Assad.
But how far is the U.S. willing to go to empower its proxies to take on Vladimir Putin's allies?
Answer seems to be not much, not very far.
Countering their involvement over there is nowhere near as important, apparently, as battling the Islamic State.
Nevertheless, our jets, you know, contrails are crossing up there, Russian and American jets, and oh God, it's dangerous.
California will end its legislative season having enacted some of the country's most aggressive social policies.
Now, these are laws requiring student vaccinations, granting terminally ill people the right to life-ending medications, and mandating equal pay for women.
That's quite a lot.
So California is going to take on end-of-life issues.
Twitter is going to lay off 336 employees.
So if you have a tweet to get out, you better hurry.
Well, not really.
It'll be fine.
Signaling, all of the Signal CEO Jack Dorsey's resolve to slash costs.
And, of course, who gets slashed when you need more income, more and better bottom line?
This list contains most of the usual suspects, pardon the pun, but the sordid true histories behind the ghostly legends are an entertaining read.
Every link within this article leads further down the rabbit hole of irresistible late-night reading, or talk radio in this case, as you dive into an extensive collection of first-hand paranormal experiences from police officers.
That's right.
These two sites will give you stories from police officers about the things we talk about.
It will give you stories of ghosts.
It will also link to the nurses.
It's called allnurses.com.
What's your best nursing ghost story?
Well, you know, you just know that nurses have lots and lots of ghost stories because, of course, they tend the ill and dying.
And many times that is who is around when you die, is a nurse, right?
Not necessarily a doctor.
I guess you're coding, so they're on the way, but if you actually are passing, it's probably a nurse that gets to you first.
I have heard so many tales of people who have felt a soul actually pass through them on the way to its final destination.
Sorry about the movie reference.
All right.
Coming up here in a moment, this is, after all, October, so staying true to it, Dr. Barry E. Taff, who holds a doctorate in psychophysiology with a minor in biomedical engineering as a world-renowned parapsychologist who worked out of UCLA's former parapsychology lab from 1969 to 78 as a research associate.
During his 40-year career, Dr. Taft has investigated more than 4,000 cases of ghosts, hauntings, poltergeists, alien abductions, and UFOs.
He has conducted extensive studies in telepathy and precognition, which led to the development of the initial protocols for what was later termed remote viewing.
Dr. Taft participates on the lecturer circuit and has consulted for government, business, and law enforcement, including the CIA, Office of Naval Intelligence, ONI, National Security Agency, NSA, DIA, Defense Intelligence Agency, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, DARPA and the FBI, Interpol APD, California Highway Patrol and Santa Barbara Sheriff's Office.
He has taught on numerous occasions at UCLA, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and UC Santa Cruz.
In the spring of 2010, Dr. Taft's book, Aliens Above, Ghost Below, was published by Cosmic Pantheon Press and has since become an underground phenomenon.
Coinciding with the launch of Dr. Taff's website, which is www.barrytaff.
That's B-A-R-R-Y-T-A-F-F dot net.
So in a moment, Dr. Taff, and we will talk about, well, aliens above and ghosts below and all of that.
I played it for the man who's worked for more agencies than anybody I know.
How does it, by the way, what is it like before we get started, working for so many of the NSAs of the world, the DIAs, all these, DARPA, I mean, just everything we talk about here, usually involving some sort of conspiracy.
Well, basically, it's like never tell anybody what you're doing.
You sign national security oaths, and you can't really discuss in any detailed manner what you're doing because you would violate your oath, and you would put yourself in jeopardy.
And even back when the labs opened during the 70s, we were doing a lot of the work there.
I was interviewed by the Daily Brewing more and more than one occasion.
And one time, I was a little too open about what we were doing and got some rather nasty phone calls from some of these groups.
And there was enough misinformation in the article.
There was errors in what they said, where they did print a retraction.
And some of these groups said, hey, if you don't correct this, there's going to be a problem in your future.
Like, you'll never get a job.
You'll never be able to get a home.
You're not going to get credit.
I go, what?
And I said, look, why did you say this?
I said, because I didn't think it was a problem.
It is a problem.
So there was enough errors.
Everything went away.
And it was written up in that Daily Bruin article 40 years ago or somewhere around that time.
No, but I did get a visit from members of two different groups on a weekend morning at about 11 a.m. in the late 70s.
And they were complaining about someone, I can't use the name, of a powerful family who was trying to investigate me through these agencies.
And I learned who it was.
I went, what?
This is the aunt of a girl I'm dating.
And they go, how old's the girl?
Well, she's my age.
It was like 29 or 30 at the time.
And I said, is there a problem with her legally?
I go, no.
Does she have children?
No.
And I didn't know what the problem was.
And then I found out through them that the aunt of this woman, whoever, was linked to one of the most powerful families in the country in terms of corporate America.
I didn't know this.
And she was having me follow it and trying to find out more about me.
And the one thing the intelligence agencies do not like is when other people try to get information out of them about people that work with them.
And so, you know, I went, oh my God, this is ridiculous.
So, you know, we all got a laugh out of it.
We all went out to lunch and they said, this is about a girl?
Yeah.
I go, what kind of people do you date?
I go, apparently people I don't know very well.
And that's the end of that.
It's dealing with these people is very odd because they're not like normal people.
The whole mentality is different.
They're more paranoid.
They're more reclusive.
They're a little more angry, a little more bitter.
A lot of them, see what I've read, they don't like their jobs because it turns them into sort of machines that are there to do one thing only, and that's it.
But it's been a long time since I've dealt with them, and I don't miss them.
Honest to God, whether it's just sitting in a factory and stamping the same thing again and again and again or whatever it is, I just really can't imagine that.
All right.
So you've been in this field a long, long time now, and I do wonder how a person clinically sets about to study the paranormal.
Well, the first thing you should understand is the way parapsychology, which is the science that investigates the paranormal, views this area.
If you said to me, can you tell me what parapsychology is?
The best answer available in my mind is it's the scientific study of the exchange of energy and information between people and the environment in ways that preclude the five known sensory systems.
Bottom line, we're antennas.
We receive and send information remotely, and this is meant through time and through space.
The mechanisms are somewhat understood, but not totally, and they imply a different reality than what we've been taught in school when we took physics or chemistry or biology.
There's a lot more going on than we ever believed.
If I were to go back to my young self 46 years ago or earlier and tell my young self what we know now, my young self will look at me and go, you're out of your mind.
You're crazy.
What are you talking about?
This stuff can't.
No.
If everything we expected to learn, we did not learn.
What we never thought of hit us in the face.
And in science, there's two ways you conduct research.
One is in a lab with controlled experiments to replicate your data.
And you build models and theories and all that.
You prove or disprove a hypothesis.
The only other way is if you can't lure the phenomenon into a lab and do research, you must go out in the field and collect data for a very long period of time, hoping to see longitudinal patterns in such data.
And I've been fortunate enough to do both, more of the latter than the prior.
And the patterns that have appeared have been extraordinary.
Things that are just mind-boggling because they run contrary to what we think about ourselves.
And in the end, they may tell us more about ourselves than we ever imagined.
Let me tell you what I've observed decades of doing talk radio about this subject.
A lot of it is BS, frankly, and a lot of it is just simply not true.
It may be entertaining, but it's not true.
But, and it's a big but, doctor, there is a great deal of it that I have found to be absolutely, unquestionably true, and that would go particularly for that which I've personally experienced.
And, you know, of course, everybody would say that.
If I felt it, if I experienced it, then it's true.
But there are some things I know are true, and that's why I continue to pound away in this area, because we are more than just our physical selves, more than our physical belongings, more than physical everything.
I agree with 100% of what you said, but even more so than you described.
Once you get past the 98 or 99.9 chunk of garbage that's being discussed to the public, tone of the public, once you get past that, what's left is extraordinary beyond words.
And like I said, most of the stuff we see on reality shows, we can ignore.
It's entertainment, and it was never meant to be anything more than it.
I was asked when the faux genre began, the reality shows genre, I was contacted by one of the first creators of one of the early shows to be on a show.
So I didn't know him.
I met with him in his office in West Los Angeles, and he told me what he wanted to do.
And I said, but you realize that 99.99999% of the time, nothing's going to happen when you go out and investigate things.
It's like expecting to be hit with a meteorite every time you go out into the field.
Mike, what drew me into this field was not simple scientific curiosity.
That was sufficient.
But what drew me in was growing up, I had all these extraordinary paranormal encounters, experiences, not with ghosts, telepathy, precognition, not of body experiences.
Why me?
Why not my family and friends?
Why?
So I had to make a choice.
Either I'm nuts, everyone else is nuts, or something extraordinary is going on.
And I pick the latter of all three because these things kept happening.
And on my website, I have a blog called A Different Kind of Psychic, Being a Medical Intuitive.
And this is sort of where it all began for me.
I've told this story many times that it bears repeating because I remember it like it was yesterday.
I was 10 years old in the fifth grade and playing in the courtyard one sunny day.
And this little blonde girl named Christine is walking towards me and beautiful little blonde girl, blue eyes, a sky blue dress, a little flower on the top.
And I'm looking at her, and suddenly it just clicked on.
What I mean by clicked on is suddenly I could see that there was a tube coming out of her right side and there was a plastic bag under her dress and I kept rubbing my eyes.
What's this?
I went up to her.
I said, Christine, what's this tube?
And she started screaming and yelling.
So they dragged me in the teacher's office and then the principal's office.
It turned out she had a colostomy.
Colostomy was 10 years old.
So, you know, I told the principal of the school, look, this is, he said, look, did you sleep in the girl's bathroom or did you look under her dress?
The Dutch Safety Board has issued their final report on the down Malaysian Airlines flight MH17, claiming that it was struck down by a Russian surface-to-air missile.
The passenger jet crashed near the Ukraine-Russian border last July, killing all 298 passengers flying to Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam.
US and German intelligence claimed at the time that the plane was shot down by pro-Russian insurgents during the height of the territorial conflict.
The investigation that involved reconstructing the nose of the plane concluded that the impact occurred on the left side of the cockpit.
Fragments of missile debris have been identified as the Russian-made 9M thirty-eight.
Russia claims that these weapons are no longer used by their military and insists that they must have been obtained by Ukraine forces.
Archaeologists at Stonehenge may have discovered the eating habits of the monument's Neolithic builders.
According to researchers at the University of Sheffield, barbecue-style feasts, including roast pork and beef, seem to have occurred with dairy products such as milk and yogurts, which were only found in use in ceremonial areas.
One researcher notes, the special placing of milk pots at the larger ceremonial buildings reveals that certain products had a ritual significance beyond that of nutrition alone.
The sharing of food had religious as well as social connotations for promoting unity among Britain's scattered farming communities in prehistory.
The evidence was gathered from remnants of cooked meals in clay pots, as well as animal bones found scattered throughout the site.
The blog, GadgetZZ.com, just received a mysterious DVD.
Containing what appears to be a person in a 17th century plague doctor's mask and black robes, the figure looks to be communicating a strange encrypted message.
The disc, which features a series of letters, numbers, and symbols written on the outside, contains the mysterious figure with an odd blinking light in the middle of its hand.
The video also appears to have numerous deliberate glitches, and it is thought that the figure may be communicating to the recipient through some sort of encrypted Morse code.
The DVD menu also features an image of human bones.
The blog claims that the disc arrived from Poland and is reaching out to readers far and wide to help disseminate the code.

Harvard is looking to cure type 1 diabetes with the help of stem cell research.
The university has utilized embryonic stem cells to make human insulin-producing beta cells for supplementing those which no longer function in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
Diabetes affects an estimated 9% of adults around the world, with over 1.2 million deaths from the disease annually.
According to Harvard, these researchers are now just one preclinical step away from the finish line.
This has been Amy Martin for Dark Matter Network News.
Anyway, Dr. Barry Taff is my guest, and he was, when we left him, in some medical distress with regard to his, and it was in a story, though, not in current life, or he'd be fine after that seven-minute break.
I met these groups, these individuals from these intelligence agencies, was they came and they witnessed, and this is discussed in another blog on my website called A Learned Psy, Training to Be Psychic, about the remote viewing work we did.
And it talks about how these people, a number of them, not by name, came to our lab and witnessed these experiments we were doing.
And they were just blown away.
And, you know, some of us could do it better than others, some couldn't, but they had never seen it work that well under controlled conditions.
And they wanted to work with us later on, but UCLA went, no, no, no, it would be political suicide.
But it would have been back in those, it's half the inears, it would have been looked upon as political suicide.
It began August 22nd, 1974, Culver City, California.
It began when my colleague, my old colleague at the time, was in a bookstore in Westwood, Hunter's Books, and he's talking about our work with a friend.
And a woman and her friend on the next aisle overheard him, and she said, oh, by the way, my house is haunted.
So my colleague went, okay, give me your name and number.
We'll call you and set up an appointment.
So we did, went out to her house maybe a week or so later.
It was a hot August night.
Neil Diamond wasn't there.
And very muggy in the house, little shack on Braddock Drive in Culver City.
And the first thing, Doris Byther, B-I-T-H-E-R, the very first thing she told us right off the bat that she'd been repeatedly raped by a ghost.
Rolled her eyes back, and we thought this woman is, you know, emotionally disturbed.
She needs help.
She needs psychiatric intervention, medication, therapy, but she doesn't need parapsychologists.
So we took her notes.
We took notes down, but we looked, they said, really, there's nothing we can do for your situation.
She went, what?
I said, you know, we suspect what you need is something far different than us.
And that was it.
And then a week later, I wrote a big P on the top of the form that we fill out in every case.
That, to me, was psychotic.
There's no reason to waste any more time with them.
But she called back about a week to 10 days later, and some friends and neighbors had witnessed things.
Well, this changed the whole thing, because if there's corroborative testimony and multiple witnesses, you suddenly take some interest.
So we go back to a little house on Braddock Drive.
We're standing in the kitchen talking, and the lower cupboard door comes open, and an iron skillet jumps out, or frying pan jumps out, and takes a leap of a few feet away from the cupboard.
And we check if there were animals in there, or wires, or springs, or who knows what.
There was nothing.
And there began the onslaught.
And the bedroom suddenly was ice-cold.
It felt like it was refrigerated, yet it was a very warm summer.
And yet we couldn't detect the source of the cold.
And we couldn't always record it, which is even stranger.
But, you know, her story took on more credibility by the fact that we began having experiences there that we could somehow document, you know, with cameras.
But what we got in these two frames were extraordinary because Doris is sitting on her little bed in the bedroom, and there's an arc of light that frames her, goes from the bed, goes up over her, and back down.
And what makes this particular shot so intriguing, Art, is that the walls behind the arc of light meet at a 90-degree angle.
So if this was the projected light source, the light would be bent in the corners with the wall.
Yet it is not, which tells us the light was in free play.
And then another point, you know, in that one of the many times we were there, these lights coalesced in the corner of the bedroom, and they formed an apparition of a very large man from about the waist up.
You could see the head, the brow ridge, the jaw, the orbits, outer orbits of the eyes.
You could see the upper torso, the musculature, the pectorals, the biceps, the whole bit.
And then it cut off at the waist, and it was that same sickening lime green.
And then it pop like a light bulb, like someone turned a light bulb off, and it was gone.
So I told everyone, don't say a word.
When you stop shaking, sit down, and here's the pens, your pencils, write down what you saw.
Good idea.
And we all saw the same thing with almost no variation.
So we were shooting dozens of photographs of the apparition, whatever it appeared to be.
And they didn't show anything.
There was no glowing apparition of a large male standing there.
There was nothing.
But wait a minute.
We all saw the same thing.
How did we see if there was nothing emitting light that we could observe?
A little bit of a problem.
You know, Michael Persinger's work, well, we know for a fact that very low-level electromagnetic fields could induce very intense audiovisual hallucinations in people.
And it's an established fact.
If that were the case in this instance, with up to 25 people in that little bedroom, you would expect a great deal of variation from one to the next.
If something is affecting your brain directly, let's say the occipital lobe or the frontal lobe, the parietal or whatever, and that affects your brain to have some sort of visual hallucination, you can't record that with any instrument I'm aware of that we know of, although the Russians decades ago were claiming they could record things like that, and it never proved out.
The question is, what did we see?
Well, the case evolved and evolved.
The phenomena grew weaker over time.
But at one point, we're in the bedroom.
It was ice cold, and we were saying, basically, holding a little seances with nothing else to do.
And we put on music that the children, boys said, when they put it on, whatever, at certain points of certain songs, the phenomena would increase.
So we started doing that, and we saw that it did indeed increase.
But was that due to our intense dislike of the music?
Or was that due to the fact that there was some correlation with the audio, the acoustic waves coming off the record players and the phenomena?
We'll never know.
But at one point, the black poster board started tearing off the wall.
Now, each black poster board had a number and a magnetic orientation.
So if we got more photographs, we could tell where they were coming from and going to.
We had a reference grid.
And suddenly something, you know, after we were pleading, do something.
Suddenly, the duct tape was being pulled off right in front of us.
It flew off the ceiling and hit Doris in the head.
And contrary to what the book made you believe, Frank D. Volitta did a great job of turning the case into a novel, and the interpretation of the novel and the book was that it was a ghost.
However, the evidence does not support that hypothesis, in my opinion.
It supports the hypothesis.
This was the poltergeist case.
This is discussed in chapter 2 of my book, In Depth.
Now, when Doris moved, finally, from Calvary City to Carson, it followed her.
We had some experiences there, but at a lower level of activity, discussed in my book and on my website.
She moved again to Texas.
It followed her there.
And by the time we saw her again in 83, when the movie The Enity came out, she claimed it had all but ceased.
However, a good friend of mine named Hathi Ortega from ghosttheory.com, he's been able to speak to her three male children.
And they claim the phenomena began before she lived on Braddock Drive in Culver City and continued long after they moved.
The problem is the one who did the most speaking of it, except contradicting himself during the interview, which is not a good indication of either memory or honesty.
And, you know, now Doris Deither passed away in 1999 at the age of 58.
And the cause of death was cardiopulmonary arrest, but they don't know why her heart and lungs stopped.
Well, according to what, no, this is according to what her kid said, when they were living in Santa Monica before they moved to Braddock Drive, little things began happening, banging noises, things that appear and disappear.
They'd see lights, but it was a very low level.
They move into the Braddock Drive house sometime later, and it's a little shack.
It was condemned several times by the city.
I'm surprised anyone could live in it.
So she moved in.
A few days later, an elderly Hispanic woman comes up to the door, knocks on it.
Doris goes to the door.
What do you want?
And she says, this house is evil.
You must leave it.
It used to be a farmhouse.
You can't stay here.
Doris went, are you out of your mind?
What are you talking about?
So the lady left, and Doris forgot about it.
And then sometime, not short time later, things started to peak in Doris' new home.
Now, as I said, most case fell, I'd say 98% of my cases are linked to people, which seems to be the norm.
However, it's more complicated than that, because we've now learned that this phenomenon is the result of some people's neurophysiology interacting in a very extraordinary way with the electromagnetic environment or geomagnetic environment they happen to live in.
And if they have the right type of neurophysiological problem, this may end up producing what we call poltergeist activity.
And this is outlined in my book, Odd Nausea.
But bottom line, as, you know, poltergeist activity is referred to as recurrent spontaneous psychokinesis, meaning it's not controllable.
It can be a macroscopic level where heavy, massive objects can move, including people.
Doctor, is it your view, in looking back on this case now, that she was the center of the activity, voluntarily or involuntarily, more likely, she was producing this poltergeist activity herself?
They were libidinal fantasies that were somehow being externalized, and they were triggering the onset of these phenomena.
Doris had a really very dysfunctional relationship with her family growing up, with different men.
And it's sort of like there was an episode of Star Trek, I forgot the name of it, with Michael Dunn.
They were on a planet where all the elders had psychokinetic abilities.
And at one point, one of the actors becomes sick, one of the peepers, and Spock said, we're seeing this telekinetic or psychokinetic manifestation of Parlem's delirium.
And that's sort of what we think was going on in Doris' case.
And this makes it all the more interesting, because if something can affect us, the environment, and we couple with it in a very unusual way, we can release energy that can tear the environment apart like that.
At one point, the fuse box was torn out of the wall and thrown at Doris.
Kendalabra was thrown at her.
It's more amazing that if it was coming from her than if it was a ghost.
I mean, just to sit and observe these things happening, to see them happening, I say on the one hand, I would love to be able to observe and see it myself, but it would scare the you-know-what out of me.
We know for a fact that paranormal phenomena in general, whether it's ESP, remote viewing, all the way to poltergeist activity beyond, the energies involved that create the events are not electromagnetic, gravitational, and nuclear, at least not as we know them.
However, we know that electromagnetic forces can mediate their response because it's coupling with us.
This is on my website in my book.
There's a number of parameters or variables that are at work here in poltergeist cases, living human agents, we call poltergeist agents.
One is location, location, location.
The environment is unique in some electromagnetic or geomagnetic way, which acts as a stimulus or an irritant to certain people's nervous systems.
Then, if you have a person who suffers either from epilepsy in general or temporal of epilepsy, which can make them hypersensitive to the electromagnetic or geomagnetic fields.
Then, if the field, if the energy of the local physical environment, if the frequency of the electromagnetic energy or geomagnetic field is the same as their nervous systems, it will induce inductive resonance coupling, which means that their nervous system gets linked to this environment, and then their unconscious or subconscious can mediate the release of this force to wreak havoc on it and produce anything from object movement and disappearance and reappearance.
If a great deal of energy is used, if you've got the right equipment, you should be able to measure that energy in use, in progress.
In other words, there should be a way it's going to take a tremendous amount of energy to actually move a physical object, and that should be able to be measured if you've got the right equipment.
We can measure the way the environment, like a high-amplitude geomagnetic field or electromagnetic field, we can measure those.
However, before, okay, long before a 210-pound man can be picked up and thrown across the room, and I've seen that happen in the San Pedro case, long before that can happen based on the energies we know of, and there's only four types of energies we know, you would be, your clothing and everything in the room would be set on fire by the liberated heat, the second law of thermodynamics.
Not only does it not get hot when these things occur, it often gets cold or it appears to get cold, but that could be the effect of the magnetic field on your body.
You think it's cold when it isn't.
So this is the whole problem.
You see, let's say, a 200-pound man is picked up and thrown on the wall like a ragdoll.
Well, his clothing and everything in the room should start burning immediately.
But it doesn't.
So we're learning something here.
Extraordinary.
The energies we know of, with perhaps the exception of gravity, when they do work in the classical sense, which is what's involved when a person or heavy massive object is moved, they produce heat.
That's the way the universe we know of works.
This force does not produce heat, which is contrary to everything we know.
So basically, we can bare our head and sand and go, I don't want to know this.
Don't bother me.
It's too complicated.
Or we can take the next step and figure out if it isn't anything we do know, then what can we develop technology to measure what's going on?
Well, we can only measure what we know.
Every instrument, I've got low frequency spectrum analyzers and air ion counters and geomagnetometer, all these different things, thermal imaging stuff.
And they're designed to measure what we know.
You can't develop a machine to measure what we don't know because we don't know what it is.
The one thing that's interesting, faces and places may change after 46 years of research in the field.
But the phenomena does not.
We keep seeing the same things over and over again.
Wherever we go, we keep running into the same situation.
It gets down, we can measure the environment, okay, it's this and this.
We can measure the people.
The instruments we have can measure bioelectric fields.
They're pretty easy to measure.
Biomagnetic fields are very difficult because they're extremely weak, need superconducting sensors which are not portable.
They're not made to be moved around.
However, among poltergeist agents, we can measure their body's magnetic field because it's pumping out so much more energy that we do know of as compared to a normal person.
And they usually people that have these problems, these psychokinetic manifestations on a recurring basis, beside having temporal lobe epilepsy and the environment's very strong to irritate the nervous system, they have a very low threshold for dealing with stress.
And all this combines to produce these results.
And it's amazing.
I mean, it'd be like going out and date girls and every girl looks the same.
What?
How can they all look the same?
But they take off a mask.
We're all different people.
We just happen to look alike.
And that's what we keep running into.
And so most of them are women, although some are men.
Some can be young, you know, adolescent, pubescent, adolescents.
Some can be mature adults.
But the things they have in common stay the same.
And a lot of times we ask people questions on all investigations.
And we tell them, look, some of the questions are very probing and invasive.
If you don't want to answer them, don't.
We ask about medications they've been taking, how long, what dosage, why were they prescribed, family history of epilepsy, sometimes it's so subtle, they go, no, no, no.
And then we ask about sleep disorders, and they say, oh, yeah, well, I take something like clonopin.
Clonopin is anti-seizure, anti-convulsant.
And they say, you know what's odd?
When I take the medication, the phenomena stops, but I sleep well.
Yes, it depends on the individual, but generally speaking, talk about, in fact, long ago when I did your shows, people started calling me, people I didn't know, all over the country, and it was great because they didn't know anything about what I was doing in detail.
And they're telling me, oh, they're taking their medicine for epilepsy.
And when they were taking it, the phenomena stopped.
When they stopped taking medication because they didn't like the way it made them feel, the seizure would return, as would the phenomenon.
So, again, you know, now, if someone was willing to take the time and spend the money, you could do functional MRI studies or PET studies, positron to mission tomography.
And we probably could find exactly what part of the brain is mediating these ability, these recurrent spontaneous psychokinetic events.
And I've got this gut feeling in me that says this energy might allow us to go to the stars.
This could give us technology we can't even begin to imagine, like propulsion.
All of this seems to be linked with us living beings at some point.
And in my book and on my website, I tell a great story.
We were doing all this remote viewing work at UCLA, and it was fun, but it got boring because it was easy to do, and it was easy to reproduce the results for the most part.
So we tried something unique.
Instead of doing real-time remote viewing, how about doing some precognitive remote viewing?
Let's look ahead in time, one week, and see who the randomly chosen target would be for the next session one week later.
We didn't know who they, no one knew.
It was all random people coming in, randomly chosen.
So we put ourselves through our progressive muscular relaxation.
The lights are off.
Describe, we were recording everyone's voices, describe the target of the next week.
We describe, a lot of us started describing a tall, beautiful blonde with blue eyes.
We describe her clothing, pantsuit, gorgeous.
And each chair was numbered beneath it, and she described the chair she sat in by number.
And then we describe a big house in Hollywood Hill, three stories, and a big baby grand piano.
That could have been anything.
Then we start describing a tall man, over six feet, handsome, strong, dressed in all black, black shirt, black pants, black boots, black gloves, black cape, black hat, black sword, black mask.
We thought, are we losing our mind?
Okay, for the next week, new people come in.
We never met.
They were brought in by third parties that had not been in our group for weeks.
Each person was given a little envelope with a piece of paper in it with a number.
People sit down.
We roll dice.
Okay, open your packets.
Whoever's number matches the number on the dice, let us know.
This woman says, oh, it's me.
Now, we had forgotten what we said a week earlier.
I mean, who remembers stuff of a week ago when it's not about your exact life?
We told the woman, here's the control for the tape recorder.
Start playing it back.
If you hear anything that correlates to you, stop it and comment.
If it doesn't, don't.
So she hears the recording.
We described her perfectly.
Height, face, hair, figure, and clothing.
Could have been coincidence.
We described the house she lived in.
Could have been coincidence.
Growing up, the piano, could have been coincidence.
But then we get to the tall man all in black, and she just hesitation on her part.
And we didn't even know her name.
She turns to us and she goes, do you know who I am?
And we said, no.
She said, I'm Tony Williams.
And we went, and she said, do you know who?
No.
My father is Guy Williams who played Zorro for Disney.
I didn't know it was coming here till three hours ago.
And then she was randomly chosen on top of it?
Wait a minute.
I don't get it.
Neither do we.
You can't see a future that's not there.
You're perceiving information.
What's the source?
It's not random probability.
Come on, you never have these occurrences, ever.
And this is where it gets more interesting.
There's an idea called implicate order.
And it implies, and this is some research done at Caltech by a well-known researcher who was relieved of his duties because of what he discovered.
He spent more than two decades, and he proved the fact to the best of medical science, that our long-term memories are very likely not stored in our own brain.
And so, I mean, the last car I had, every time days before, day before something was going to happen to it, I kept dreaming about it.
I accepted it.
It was, you know, it was fate.
I mean, it's, again, the more important these things are to us at an emotional level, the more likely we are to access the information because they stand out.
If it's boring, it's mundane, like, who cares?
But if it grabs our attention because it threatens us or hurts us or potentially offers harm or drastic, dramatic change we don't want, we access it because it's like, wow, what's that?
But it's what you couldn't go to a bank and bet on it.
There's more data collected on UFOs, the real things, than you could go to court and win that there's something flying around our skies for more than 100 years.
We don't know why they're here, but it's going on long before we existed as a culture.
That you'd win on court in terms of, yes, something strange going on.
In terms of proving contact with the dead, right now we can't because in science there's something that's called Occam's razor, which you ever heard the term.
Basically, it implies all things being equal, you go with the simplest explanation.
So before we assume something is paranormal, we've got to rule everything else out.
Everything.
Then we get to that point, we start all over again.
Start with the most simplistic explanation paranormally, and then you work your way up to the most outlandish, which of course is that we can communicate with the dead.
And, you know, the sad part is that most of my cases, most of the things that are aridma can be more readily and easily explained as the result of humanly generated psychokinetic force that doesn't preclude the possibility of discarded intelligence.
We've had a few cases that suggest it, but then we find the same thing, the geomagnetic field, that people with temporal epilepsy, neurological problems, sleep disorders.
So the question is: is there any difference between all of us?
Or are we not just, you know, the story of the three blind men and the elephant that's been told, where one blind man holds the elephant's, holds the elephant's leg and thinks it's a tree trunk?
No.
The other hold the elephant's tail and thinks it's a rope.
No.
The third hold the elephant's trunk and thinks it's the hose.
Well, you mentioned UFOs, and sure enough, my lines could be full of a million UFO stories, but also mentioned ghosts, and my lines could be full of a million ghost stories.
Now, I guess your answer would have to be, well, they don't really know what they're seeing.
Now, here's another one for you to tackle, and that is the unending continuing stories of NDEs, near-death experiences, in which people do come back and relate things they could not possibly know that went on during the attempt to revive them or whatever it was.
Well, I mean, we know out-of-body experiences, and I suspect that most of these cases have externalization of consciousness.
And even somehow their body hasn't decayed enough where there's brain damage when they reawaken.
But we know that people can leave their bodies and perceive things.
That's very clearly established.
The question is, what is it that leaves your body?
We don't know.
I mean, your body's still there.
The heart's beating, you know.
But if you go flatlined for too long and the heart stops, there's brain damage due to oxygen deprivation, hypoxia.
So it's complicated here.
And the question is, if we are all linked to this cloud, to this remote power field, and that's where all of our information resides, that means that there may not be any difference between us and people that have passed away.
It may all be the same thing.
And we're just interpreting it a certain way because this is all we're able to do right now.
Basically, with simple learning paradigms, this purpose was to take normal, healthy people who aren't in psychotherapy or analysis, who aren't using drugs, and see if you could take them and train them to reliably access remote information.
A Halloween prop lying face down on a lawn in Detroit has prompted a 911 call this week when authorities thought that someone had been brutally attacked.
The homeowner had police show up to her door, expecting to respond to a potential murder, but the woman told police that she had used the prop for an annual prank.
The woman then revealed that she would move the prop around her yard every morning to spoof unsuspecting passers-by, observing their horror while she drinks her coffee during the days leading up to Halloween.
The large scarecrow-like body, featuring a pair of work overalls stuffed into old shoes, appears to unsuspecting witnesses as a man lying face down with a pillowcase wrapped over his head.
One person had even attempted to perform CPR in the prop this year, she told Detroit News.
Once they find out it's a dummy, it's so hilarious.
While authorities may be unenthused, it's a tradition that she's carried on for several years to celebrate her husband's birthday, and she doesn't plan on stopping it anytime soon.
A man has captured images of what he describes as a prehistoric bird with an alien entity in skies over Southern California.
According to CryptozoologyNews.com, C. Wilson, who didn't reveal his exact location in the Golden State, says he spots different anomalies, including what he believes to be creatures almost every month.
He writes, It's difficult to see these objects when going several thousand miles per hour.
For some reason, they engage me.
He also claims to regularly witness flying orbs and rods with different animals appearing next to these UFOs in the skies.
He also writes, The red orb follows me with one turkey vulture that always hangs with it.
The chrome orb has 33 seagulls that hang with it, and the blue orb has nine red-tailed hawks that also hang with it.
The flying rods are intelligent and not rods at all.
One image appears to depict what some have described as a pterosaur, and the other appears to be a four-legged hot dog flying above the clouds.
He finally writes, I have a gift to catch these critters and UFOs and aliens as they fly by me.
Follow me, touch me, and sometimes I hear my name.
They are intelligent.
I see if they can hear me, which they can.
I can prove that, and most important, I can prove that we are being engaged.

A town in Connecticut has resurrected a fall tradition.
After an elementary school decided to cancel Halloween, outraged parents and children stood up to defend the holiday.
The school claims that the initial decision to cancel festivities came from wanting to cater to children and families who felt that the holiday was either religiously or culturally offensive.
The school district has since reversed its decision as they felt that the outcry over canceled activities had become a distraction.

Email Amy at artbell.com.
This has been Amy Martin for Dark Matter Network News.
I don't believe everything everyone tells to me or read about, but there are some really good cases out there that, in my opinion, stand up because of some intriguing evidence that's been collected.
This is not recent.
I mean, there's good evidence that abductions may go back a very long ways in time.
I know we might have misinterpreted them.
And what's even more extraordinary, Art said, we have cases that began as an abduction and had paranormal fallout, or began as paranormal experiences and had an abduction.
Okay, let me run something by you that's kind of in the news because it got started here.
I interviewed Dr. David Jacobs and others, I might add, who are making claims that they believe and can prove that there are half-humans, humans that have been genetically altered during abductions,
and that there is, in essence, an invasion underway, and we are slowly being changed as humans, and we are being invaded by our changed selves, would be a way to put it, I guess.
But, but, but, I mean, if you were going to invade a planet, a populated planet full of gun-toting people, I might add, you might well want to do it very subtly, very slowly, and over a very long period of time.
And if you had the ability to genetically modify, I can't think of a Better way to do it.
If you give it some serious thought, it does make sense.
Well, we know for a fact that there's more than one race that's been visiting Earth for a very long time.
And there's substantial evidence, which I discussed in my book, that we, meaning the human race, might be the result of their interference in normal evolution here.
And it's discussed in depth in my book.
Leonard Stringfield, a lot of his mind bought everything he ever wrote, and it's some really good evidence collected, which I republished in my book, and they all referenced appropriately.
And my conclusions at this point is that whoever these beings are, they may know something about our future we don't.
Meaning, maybe we're not going to survive here, and they do want to replace us.
Or maybe they want to take our genetic makeup, take it to another star system, and build another race with it.
If we are the result of someone else's experiment, and they're not perverted, that means we have an inconceivable future and an unimaginable, an inconceivable past and unimaginable future.
It throws into question everything about the human race.
It kind of messes up religion big time, ethnicity.
And the last thing we need on earth right now, amongst all the insanity going on, is another reason for people to go nuts.
So if you were in charge of the disclosure of such volatile, earth-shaking information that would basically disenfranchise all of us, would you do it to please a few, knowing that the end result might be utter chaos?
No, that's what most normal, rational, intelligent people would say.
In the end, what good would it serve?
I mean, not that I wouldn't like this disclosure.
I think we need in the near future, it might be catastrophic and be the most destabilizing information ever given to us.
In the end, it would probably help us because we'd all realize we're all one people.
I don't care where you're from, what your color is, we're all the same.
We all breathe the same air and eat food, and we all get old and eventually die.
So we're all going through that.
But I just think in the short term, the chaos could be horrendous.
And it wouldn't, like, you know, there's a good deal of suggestive evidence out there, and I just, some of this is on my website, that the real reason JFK was killed wasn't for whatever people suspect.
It might have been he was about to disclose the most closely guarded secret on earth.
If we had a drive of the type you talked about so we could have a secret space program, so we're going to other star systems doing all kinds of wild things, this drive would be an energy source that would yank us out of this horrid, horrid problem we have right now, burning fossil fuels and endangering the future of the planet, period.
And they would be withholding that from us for what?
Well, the same reason Westinghouse, every time someone tries to develop Tesla's technology,
technology and scale it up to make it useful for power generation or applications Westinghouse puts the cease and desist order in and stops them as a lot of people have ever heard there's trillions of dollars wrapped up in petrochemical energy it runs they it runs the earth and when we do run out who knows how long it will be they'll say oh look what we just found look oh look here it is on my website I have a blog called Building a Warp Drive Engine.
It goes into depth on what's been done, on what I talk, some theories and suggestions.
It talks about Richard Dolan.
I give reference to one of his online.
You can see it on YouTube.
It's a great 90-minute lecture, and everyone should see this.
It's about the speaker-based program from Amsterdam in the fall of 2000, I think, 11.
And it doesn't get any better than Richard Dolan.
I mean, just it doesn't.
And his collection of information is very impressive.
He makes a great point and he can support it with facts.
Like, is consciousness, okay, so can we actually become more conscious without alien intervention?
I mean, there's all these theories you guys were discussing where, you know, aliens could be a part of getting a part of our genetic changes and things along those lines.
Is it just possible that we are actually becoming more conscious, where we're actually seeing the detriment of what our government has done, what people have done to each other, where we're actually good people and we're just being more conscious and there's no alien explanation involved?
So if we've made huge strides at recognizing that we're all connected, I mean, we're all creative from this energy that connects all of us.
So, I mean, that's consciousness.
That's consciousness just becoming greater and greater.
Like, can we just recognize that things kind of, you know, time-wise, time is a tricky thing, so let's not get into it because that would take forever.
But consciously, we are actually one living energy between all living things, between trees, earth, plants, everything that's living.
And in this consciousness, there is this growth that occurs simply because of who we are.
It has nothing to do with some outside force.
The government can do what it's going to do.
People are going to do what they're going to do.
But in this consciousness, in what consciousness is, we are actually growing as people.
Is that possible?
Or does it have to be some sort of outside alien influence that allows us?
I feel like that takes away our power as people, honestly.
Well, I don't think that aliens are affecting our consciousness.
I mean, whatever these things are, clearly have manipulated our perceptual abilities and ability to understand.
But I think we are evolving and changing much more rapidly now because of our exposure to information based on what we're doing, based on what aliens are doing.
And maybe this is a concern to them.
Maybe we are growing in a way, but our proclivities haven't really changed.
But it might have, even though it may not be a conscious thing, you know, like we all go out and buy certain cars for certain needs.
We like the way it looks, the way it feels, the way it drives, the way it sounds, versus just buying any piece of junk we're in front of, in front of our eyes.
But this car was just a car, and I can't say that I was in love with it, but nevertheless, here came this precognitive feeling, And it just was not possible to ignore.
Yeah, yeah, it was very, This is my third sighting in, like, five years, too, which relates to my question.
Okay.
My question is, is more specific to like, I know I realize, you know, sightings and abduction, you know, the connection with abduction and all that, but why does it seem that sometimes like they're almost putting on a show for people?
And it's Stephen Greer, I mean, a lot of his group and like, you know, I'm not the only person at this point.
I mean, going back just over the last 45 to 50 years, some of these events are spectacular.
I mean, there's the Phoenix lights back in the 90s.
There have been other displays, which you can look at, that are well known, that are up on YouTube.
And when you have a triangular craft, I'm a little concerned that it may not necessarily be alien because Lockheed Martin has the TR-3B, which doesn't propel itself normally.
It has a magnetic disruptor engine called magnetoplasma drive.
This is discussed on my website, and it neutralizes more than 90% of the inertia of the vehicle, which means very little energy can make it move very quickly and do things other vehicles can't, and it's completely silent.
I've had a few of what I would describe as paranormal experiences, but that's over a span of 70 years.
Now, what are the odds of a camera crew going out and catching, let us say, a frying pan going across The room, as Dr. Taff explained a little while ago, odds of that, about a gazillion to one.
Well, I mean, first of all, EVPs, you know, the whole point is you don't have to sitting around and wait.
You do the recording and then play it back.
So it's more at your discretion of when you're going to do it.
You know, when you go out and investigate cases of halting or poltergeists or whatever you want to call them, the chance of you actually being there when something happens and recording it to document it is astronomical.
I've done it on thousands of cases.
You know, we measure interesting things.
We measure the people.
We measure the environment.
We ask a lot of probing medical questions and we come to interesting conclusions.
But the chance of us actually seeing it happen and have the camera aimed in the right place at the right time is astronomical.
And that's why when you have these silly shows that every week they catch stuff, I'm going, come on.
It's like, how many times can you win the lottery in a row?
unidentified
I have one more question.
Have you guys ever heard of John Hutchinson, the Canadian physicist?
Well, South A physicist.
And he recently, last I heard, using his equipment, opened up some sort of portal where he claims that he and his partner saw shadow people.
Yes, I know of Hutchison, and I've seen videos of things that have happened.
And the problem is, even though what he's doing is amazing and some of the results are amazing, he doesn't keep or hasn't kept really great notes.
So he can't replicate what he's doing all the time, which is problematic.
The question is, is he creating an electromagnetic environment that causes these effects to occur, or is he able to change the environment such a way to allow it to occur?
And he doesn't keep notes.
He doesn't keep what he's doing, so he can't reproduce it all the time.
Which is the problem with all of us.
If this stuff could be reproduced in the lab all the time, we wouldn't call it paranormal.
The problem I have is you've gone so many places that I'm confused and nearly crippled.
But I'm going to try, okay?
First of all, I want to share with you the smoke experience.
I smoked for 30 years and quit, and I think I had some kind of intervention.
And just for what's worth, I don't think you have a clue why you smoke, but if you saw what happened to me, I think at that time then you'd understand.
Moving on, your listening audience, along with the doctor, needs to look at ecat.com.
Dr. Taft, I'm going to see if I can't wrap my mind around this, and then you can lure me up and put me back on course.
And boy, I'm going to hesitate talking about UFOs, and I'd love to, but I'm going to hesitate.
It seems to me that what you're suggesting to me, I think I heard a long time ago, and that is that everything is the consequence of competing thoughts.
Everything.
Your hand, we understand, is the product of a competing thought.
That thought is in a state of mere energy without mass and has intelligence.
The difficulty with that energy is it has to consume to maintain its energy disposition.
And if that's the case, what you're really talking about is a form of energy which seeks to find, and please help me through this.
It's your fault I'm in this state.
It seeks to find a relevant state of harmony which then defines its state of being, which gives us an understanding as to how vast the wonders of it all is.
And if that is the case, then we would be a mere amoeba on the floor of a jungle floor, given all the creatures in there.
We would be nearly insignificant, which takes you to the next step, like a puzzle.
Okay, well, we don't have a lot of time here, so if you have a question that evolves from this.
unidentified
The real mystery would be, and I'll shut this down.
The real mystery to me would be who's holding the order of all of these manifestations that we call poltergeist and UFOs and humans and animals and plants and states of being.
The best thing I could say was the energies we know of in the universe, and there's only four types of energies we know of, are all exothermic.
They emit heat.
Whatever the force is that is involved with the paranormal, not that mediates it with us, but the actual energy itself appears to be endothermic.
And again, there's nothing else we know of like that.
There have been discussions of, remember the guy who was, some guy who was funding a fusion reactor a couple decades ago, I forget, Bob Guccione or something like that, and all these things about building a gigawatt-class small fusion reactor.
Nothing was ever built or tested or developed.
There's all this stuff going on.
I know that up in Nova Shiva, up at Lawrence Livermore, they were doing experiments.
It's inertial confinement fusion, and they fired terawatt or petawatt-class lasers to compress deuterium and tritium to produce that fusion.
And when they're doing this, they're finding energy coming in from sources.
They don't know where it's coming from.
Like another dimension, they pretty much stopped doing the work because they ran out of money.
But there's evidence that there's stuff out there in other levels of reality we're not aware of yet.
And we may be seeing, this is the first indication of it in the world we live in every day, is that there's a force of nature that can do incredible things.
Back in the 90s, when I was doing talk radio and up through the early 2000s, I wasn't hearing people describing engines that they were working on that would get us not just off the planet, Doctor, but to other stars.
And I'm hearing now, in this year and this time, all kinds of people working on these engines that will get us off the planet, and I mean really off the planet.
And there's so many people working on it, it's like there's got to be something going on because there are a lot of people working on these engines, various kinds of engines.
I don't want to say fusion because propulsion can be produced in many ways.
What I discussed on my website about building a warp drive engine has nothing to do with pretty much with fusion.
It's using compressed mercury ice studies condensate plasmas that are rotated at high speed and they induce inertial torque shield and frame dragging and they can manipulate space.
And you, you know, we used to talk when I was at KDWN.
Yes, sir.
Yeah.
Anyway, there's evidence for this cloud theory that you may have of human intelligence.
There was a woman who died recently in India who was a mathematician who did the 23rd root of a 201-digit number in 50 seconds, and it took UNIVEC 62 seconds.
And the only way this would be possible would be if this problem had been solved somewhere and that there's like a library of all these things somewhere in space.
He examined it, and he said, I remember you said that the lens of an SLR camera would prohibit such an image from occurring, and you said you have no idea what made this.
If I may ask, since you're an expert in this area, how do you make a determination about whether something is real or fake?
unidentified
Well, there are methods that you can use in examining the image under a microscope and so forth, and you see whether or not images appear to be layered.
But an awful lot of it is just intuition.
You know, if you are used to producing it, I was in the business of making special fake images.
So when you do that, you learn how these things look.
Yeah.
Well, how they ultimately look on film.
And they have a certain characteristic, their edges and so forth that you look for.
Well, when you look at a picture where there's a question and you don't see that kind of overlapping in one thing and another, then you have reason to believe that this is an authentic photograph.
We live in an era now where I don't know if you've been to the movies lately, but they can do Things that are as real as real.
unidentified
Well, I'll tell you, photo analysis is over as far as authentication is concerned because the digital things, as you say, the CGI work is just simply so incredible.
There's no way that you can say with any authority that it's fake.
I mean, there's stuff about the Rendsloforest case, you know, Ben Waters thing.
Oh, yeah.
One of the things came out when they're suggesting that the information suggests that the vehicles that landed were from our future and they wanted doing things to help us survive.
That's the latest stuff I've seen on some shows.
I don't know.
It's intriguing.
It's interesting.
Doesn't mean it's real.
Doesn't mean I know that one of the guys touched a vehicle and it seems to have put some stuff in his head.
But he believes some kind of induction process.
But, you know, beyond all that, I mean, I will never forget Adrian Vance's name ever.
It's just, I remember in the lab one day, Dr. Moss calls from the office below.
I had an experience many years ago, and I've never had anybody explain to me what this was.
I was dating a girl.
We were out.
We came back to her house, brought fast food.
She went outside, and I'm sitting there on a couch, and literally the bag turns sideways.
The hamburger comes out of the bag in front of me and starts to unwrap.
And I ask her about it, and she goes, oh, that's Bob.
I'm like, well, who's Bob?
Well, he's a spirit that's been following me forever.
When we got married, and she was gone quite a bit on the road, at night, every night while she was gone, there'd be a glow in the corner of the same room, up like in the corner, almost like a hive.
But every time she was gone, this glowing ball of energy would sit in the, and I tried, debunk it.
I checked to make sure it wasn't, you know, lights from a different house.
I blacked out the windows.
I blacked out the doors.
And the ball would still be there.
Every time I would take out a camera to try to take a picture of it, it would go through the wall into the next room.
It's like going to the next room, try to take a picture, and come back to the other room.
It did not want to be photographed.
When we got into arguments, I would feel like we had a huge fight one time.
She walked outside.
I started to walk out into the living room and I got thrown.
So I don't know what it is, but nobody's ever been able to give me a logical explanation as to how a hamburger gets pulled out of a bag, unwrapped right in front of me, and there's nobody within five feet of the damn thing.
Well, first of all, how long did it take for the hamburger to come out and unwrap itself?
unidentified
It would have been no different.
It would have been fiercely, in all seriousness, it would have been no different if you had reached into a bag, grabbed the hamburger, and unwrapped it.
And this was centered around your girlfriend or your wife?
unidentified
My ex-wife now, but yeah, but I mean, it was centered around her, and it had been going on since she was a little girl and she was adopted.
And I mean, she was as a baby, but from the time that she could remember, this thing's always been with her, and it's gone every location she's ever lived.
But the weird thing was she was in Europe, and the thing was still in the house.
It's linked to her, but it's also linked to an environment, which we've seen in cases where phenomenal continue to exist in one environment, yet one of the people, the agents, will leave, and it continues to propagate around them as well, which is we've had that in a couple of cases.
But again, it would take a great deal of time to ask and take a lot of questions, a lot of measurements of the environment of the people, and we might get answers.
Now, I've read currently that there's a new tenant, a new owner, what have you.
Why do you think that, say, the entire story of the Lux family who had such a horrific experience and whatnot, and all the owners that have had the place since then, you know, there's not been any more reporting of anything to, like, as far as I know, any paranormal activity whatsoever after their entire experience.
An unidentified flying object has been spotted over the skies of St. Helens in the UK.
According to witnesses, the object which was photographed by two different readers of the St. Helens Reporter was floating over St. Helens Park and shapeshifting.
One photograph shows the object during the day, which could be a hobby drone, yet another photograph shows an object over the city at night, depicting an eerie blue-green glowing orb.
Both readers reached out to the paper through social media.
The photograph taken at night was reportedly captured just before the lunar eclipse over the night of the 27th and 28th of September.

According to Business Insider, a group of divers went to dangerous lengths to remove a hook from the jaws of an injured shark last month.
The group, which calls themselves shark addicts of Jupiter, Florida, were equipped with GoPro cameras when they noticed the shark in distress.
A member of the group then distracted the dusty shark, holding it by the nose while another member removed the hook.
You can see this video online at businessinsider.com According to Art Bell listener sword master Haruka, strange lights have been spotted over Mount Fuji in Japan.
The listener writes, Last week I mentioned strange lights or fire around the base of Mount Fuji.
Last night they were big enough or close enough, hard to say, that I got some moderately okay pictures with my iPhone.
In one picture they looked different because one light faded out and a new one started.
What do these lights look like to you?

The blog gadgetz.com just received a mysterious DVD.
Containing what appears to be a person in a 17th century plague doctor's mask and black robes, the figure looks to be communicating a strange encrypted message.
The disc, which features a series of letters, numbers, and symbols written on the outside, contains the mysterious figure with an odd blinking light in the middle of its hand.
The video also appears to have numerous deliberate glitches, and it is thought that the figure may be communicating to the recipient through some sort of encrypted Morse code.
The DVD menu also features an image of human bones.
The blog claims that the disc arrived from Poland and is reaching out to readers far and wide to help disseminate the code.

Dr. Barry Taff is my guest, and we have been just ranging all over the place in this discussion.
A very, very good discussion at that.
Let's go right back to it.
Doctor, welcome back.
And caller, welcome back.
Please continue.

Hello?
Yes.
Yeah, that's basically my question with the entire Amityville thing.
Why would it be that only the Lutzes experienced paranormal activity, but any owner after they vacated the premises have not reported anything?
I mean, I know before the Lutzes, the entire DeFeo incident, which a lot of people are very sure is what caused the hell to watch this come through.
Yeah.
But it's just, I've heard theories about paranormal activity like that, like it kind of being like a photograph looping in time type of thing.
But it seemed like it interacted with the family, so that kind of negates that and gives it, you know, the entire thought that it was sentient that was interacting with the family.
So do you have any idea why it would just single in on them and not on owners afterwards?
Could it have been, like, provoked by something about them or what?
Well, you're not going to like my response, but in my opinion, based on the evidence collected by parapsychologists on the case, the reason why nothing happened after the Lutzes is because the case was a hoax.
I mean, obviously, as I said, the most phenomenal link to the people and occasionally to the environment and the people.
And occasionally the environment, and depending on who's in it, it'll react or won't react.
But again, based on the evidence that was collected by parapsychologists who I knew and had worked with, you know, they couldn't validate or verify one of the facts described in the book, which leaves one with the suspicion that it was the whole thing was hoaxed.
There was always belief that when Jay Anthon, before Jay Anthon died, the author of the book, he admitted that he and the Lutzes made it up.
They were drinking and they were smoking a lot of weed and they just made the whole thing up.
And I can't prove or disprove that.
That's some of the stories that have been scuttlebuggers going around for a long time.
Yeah, maybe like the elites that supposedly run the world, maybe there's another more malevolent alien entity that actually runs them.
And so this is just an idea I had.
And so maybe these other aliens or entities are mixing themselves with the humans to help fight back and maybe change the world into something better than it has.
It's an idea that has to be considered, Doctor, if they are interacting with us, if they are changing us.
You know, it has to be considered that it may not be a bad thing, although most of us would, I think, revolt at the concept of not being in control of ourselves.
Maybe one day we'll all be singing kumbaya and holding hands.
One Stranger, 1978, Television City, Fairfax from Beverly.
My colleague and I were being interviewed to go on some talk show, and my colleague makes a joke that I don't show up in photographs, and I've had problems with cameras since I was very young.
And I said to him, you made me look like an idiot in front of these people.
They take a picture of Older with an SX70 Polaroid.
It develops.
Yeah, well, there was a problem all right.
My colleague showed up perfectly.
He was a foot to my right.
All you see where I was was a massive white light.
And then what happened was a psychic told me I didn't know who to go to.
I thought I was getting ready to go to a mental hospital and the psychic told me that we were in a past life together and that that's what this was, you know.
Yeah, my question really was going to be if someone can actually produce because I believe his synopsis was that she created it herself yes is there a way you can channel that to a more positive if someone has that kind of ability or that kind of power is there a way to channel that for a more positive result result yeah you know that was going to be my question have they thought about well
It may be, sir, that if somebody is producing so much energy, so much, in this case, negative energy, it's like asking them to suddenly be a happy person and make something jump up and down on the table, you know, to excite people instead of doing this negative stuff.
And I don't see how that would work out.
unidentified
Yeah, I was kind of basing it on there were some mental conditions going on as well.
Gotcha, but I mean, I think it's reasonable for us to discuss the fact that if you're a religious person and something like this happens to you, you're probably going to assign it to something that fits your belief system.
Is that fair?
unidentified
Yeah, I would say that's fair.
Okay.
And the next thing I knew, I was going through the air with this being, and I was on, like, I figured out, at the time I wasn't sure what was happening, but I was on a mountain, which I now think was like where Moses received the Ten Commandments and he saw the finger of God writing them on the wall, on the stone.
Yes.
And I saw that, and there was two commandments.
One was, thou shalt have no other gods before me, and the other was, honor thy father and thy mother.
And I'm sorry we don't have time to go into this because the show is actually ending.
And so I would like to say thank you to Dr. Taff, who I didn't have an opportunity to say goodbye to because he just disappeared.
So I'll call him back and we'll touch base.
But he just, I don't know.
He was gone.
All the phone lines are full, plenty of people to talk to him, but the doctor just vanished.
I don't have a frequent chance to do this.
I want to thank my team.
And all of, you know, this show doesn't just happen.
It is a team effort.
So, Celos, Joe Talbot, my buddy here.
