Investigation: A “Haunting” in Historic Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
The year was 1980. The house is in historic Bethlehem. My grandfather bought the house in the 1920s. It is a beautiful home that was built around the turn of the century. There is a stained glass window in the foyer and carved wood paneling. There used to be a wraparound porch in the front of the house that was removed. The first floor had a music room, library, parlor, kitchen, dining room and a pantry with a dumb waiter. The second floor contained a small sewing room, bath and three bedrooms. In the attic were the servants’ quarters for the cook and chauffer. The unattached garage had its own gas tank. In the basement, there was a wine cellar and other rooms. The house was converted into two apartments shortly before World War II. In 1950, an addition was built to the first floor. It was a large bedroom with full bath. My parents moved into the first floor apartment in 1972. My mother had the bedroom that was the addition for her bedroom. This was the scene of most of the phenomena.

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.
