Phantasms of the Living with Simon Thought
This podcast series is a review and discussion of case studies from the seminal, two volume, massive work known as “Phantasms of the Living” published in 1886 by the Society for Psychical Research in England. The Society was made up both skeptics and believers in the paranormal and conducted research into various areas in an attempt to prove whether such phenomenae were real or not.
Episodes
Seven, commercial-free case studies of people who saw apparitions. Were they experiencing hallucinations, or were they being visited by ghosts?
This episode tells five stories of telephathy of various types, from the banal to the horrific. Now, commercial-free.
This episode is a second dip into Hereward Carrington's book "Phantasms of the Dead". While all of the stories told so far in this podcast have been interesting, or at least the methods of investigation into them have been interesting, the stories in this episode are the scariest to date. Who does not like a good mummy story, anyway?

What we are going to do in this episode is take a break from the "Phantasms of the Living" case studies so we can delve into Hereward Carrington’s "Phantasms of the Dead". This episode discusses two investigations of haunted houses .
This episode comes from Chapter 8 of Volume 1 which is entitled “Dreams”, meaning cases of paranormal events which appear to a person while sleeping, which are considered a link between impressions received telepathically and those directly observed.
