The Ghosts of Raynham Hall
The Brown Lady of Raynham Hall is one of the better known ghosts that haunt an English Manor house that is the home of the Marquesses of Townshend located near Fakenham, Norfolk. She does nothing spectacular. Her activity is limited to wandering about the home. What is notable about her is that she was photographed and the picture was printed in a magazine. While no one is sure who she is, it is believed that she is the ghost of Lady Dorothy Townshend. She was the daughter of Robert Walpole, Member of Parliament and the sister of Sir Robert Walpole, a British prime minister. Dorothy lived in the 1600s. Another ghost, the Red Cavalier is not as well known. Nandor Fodor, a psychoanalyst and highly respected parapsychologist, investigated Raynham Hall and wrote about his experience.

Famous Psychoanalysts Involved with the Paranormal
Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, Sandor Ferenczi and Nandor Fodor all had something in common. They were psychoanalysts and also interested in parapsychology. Freud was the first pioneer in and founder of psychoanalysis. Jung was to be his heir and crown prince. There was a rift between them that led to a bitter estrangement. All I learned about this rift when I studied for my undergraduate degree was that there was a major difference in theories. Some years later, I learned the truth. Ferenczi was also a disciple of Freud’s. Fodor was the first psychoanalyst to seriously study the relationship between psychology and the paranormal. This article will inform you of things you will not learn in traditional undergraduate psychology classes.

The Psychic World of Cats Part II
Anpsi is animal psychic phenomena and has been well documented in both the laboratory and by personal experiences. My article, “Amazing Psychic World of Animals,” gives more detail about anpsi. Because there was so much to write about regarding cats’ anpsi, I decided to write two articles instead of one. This article is about cat ghost seers and cat ghosts. Not only can cats and other animals sense ghosts, they can also become one. Animals are amazing creatures and definitely are part of the Paranormal Realm….

Unquiet Coffins
There have been cases of coffins being tossed about in crypts. The most well known case is that of the Chase crypt in Barbados which happened from 1812 to 1820. The earliest record I could locate was that of the French Crypt, Stanton, Suffolk, England, 1810. In 1844, there was another case, the Buxhoewden Crypt on the Island of Oesel in the Baltic Sea. Various explanations have been offered including a minor earthquake, subterranean streams, grave robbers and electro magnetic theory. Even minor earthquakes are felt and the way the coffins are placed is logical argument evidence against this theory. There, in these cases, is no evidence of water in the crypts. The locks showed no evidence as having been tampered with and two of the crypts were sealed and the floors dusted with sand or ashes that were not disturbed. The coffins in the Chase grave were made of lead. Apparently the ones in the Buxhoewden crypt were made of wood because some were battered open. Is it possible that electromagnetic forces could toss lead coffins about? Why was nothing else in the area affected? Could these forces toss wood coffins about?
