New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
In the course of our periodic phone sessions, Searcher Group founder Richard Palmisano and I sometimes bemoan the fact that neither of us were born into the ideal era in terms of paranormal investigation. Gone are the days of Harry Price, Hans Holzer, and Peter Underwood: days when one or two experts in this field were high-profile enough in their respective countries to actually be invited to stay in people's homes, served meals and granted full access to explore potentially haunted locations (sometimes accompanied by their spouses).
