Paranormal Perspectives: One Big Box of ’Paranormal Tricks’?: From Ghosts to Poltergeists to the Theory of Just One Paranormal Power

In his latest book, One Big Box of ’Paranormal Tricks’? From Ghosts to Poltergeists to the Theory of Just One Paranormal Power, John Fraser reflects on his motivations for involvement in paranormal research from an early age, recalling his experiences to date, the people who have influenced him, and the conclusions he’s come to. Whilst Fraser refers to events in his life, this book is not a memoir or ’life story’ in any conventional sense. It’s presented as a meditation on what the paranormal might mean for us in our universal quest to give our lives meaning. One Big Box of ’Paranormal Tricks’? takes more of a zen-&-the-art-of-spending-a-night-in-a-haunted-house approach than an autobiographical one.

John Fraser is currently a member of the Spontaneous Cases Committee and the Council of the Society for Psychical Research. He has previously been Vice Chair (Investigations) of The Ghost Club (founded in 1862), and joined the Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena in its founding year. He is the author of Ghost Hunting - A Survivor’s Guide (History Press 2010) and he has written articles for the Fortean Times and other magazines. John lives in Croydon, UK.
