About the Paranormal Experience

What is really known about the paranormal? There have always been occurrences that reach beyond the boundaries of the typical human experience. These occurrences are labeled "paranormal" because they remain unexplained by conventional science.

Paranormal Encounters

People encounter the paranormal in almost too many ways to catalog. Some have seen spirits of dead people, and may have even heard disembodied voices on occasion. Others have encountered mysterious, illusive and downright frightening creatures that hold no place in the modern catalog of flora and fauna. Still others have witnessed objects move seemingly on their own. Could they have been pushed by a ghostly hand, or were they moved completely with the power of the human mind?

Parapsychology

Not content to simply experience a random encounter and go away from it more confused than before, some people embark on a scientific exploration of paranormal phenomena. This is the field of parapsychology. Regarded as a pseudo-science by some, it should be kept in mind that many scientific theories once were scoffed at as ridiculous until enough proof was gathered to prove them true. Does anyone remember when it was considered outlandish to think that the earth was round, or that this planet was anything other than the center of the universe? Those theories were proven false by people who persisted in pursuing the truth no matter how much they were ridiculed. Perhaps one day many of the paranormal theories will be proven true by the dedicated investigators who relentlessly seek to understand the unknown.
