Living Empathic

There are those in this world who are indeed very strange people, I call them empaths.
They are kind of like Deanna Troi from Star Trek, they can feel emotions from others.

I found out I was empathic at ten.  I would go to the mall and "hear" all these people "talking", I would "hear" people "crying", I stopped going to the mall for years, I feared (and still do) crowds and crowed places.  I prefer and have learned to do things alone because dealing with other peoples emotions makes things harder.

The hardest place I EVER worked was a vet's office.  I could feel the emotions from the animals, HATED IT would be an understatement. I was an emotional wreck every single day, and to some point pretty sure I still carry those scars.

I eventually learned how to close myself to others "feelings" so If we ever meet and I don't shake your hand please don't take it personally.

There are times I will open myself up, first dates are always fun.  You can really tell if the guy is just out for a one night stand & sometimes you can know what he's gonna say before he says it.  I know it makes me creepy to do that but I figure why waste my time....it's probably why I'm not married and usually date for sex, which even sex is hard because you FEEL the other person.  Now, if you are with the right person it's a fantastic experience that can freak out those who do not understand it's not a party trick and this is 24/7/365.

I use this empathic ability to investigate the paranormal.  Using it for "talking" to spirits can be very dangerous. 

1. You rarely walk into a location knowing who you will be "talking" with.

2. There could be other spirits around who want to talk.

3. There could always be a demon lurking in the shadows just waiting for the opportunity to get ahold of an open empath.

4.  Turning it off isn't an easy process however, turning it on is easier.

Being an empath and sensing spirits isn't only about feeling the static in the air or the environment change.  You can (if taught) hear them before the come up and hit you.  You can hear them from far away coming at you because it will sound like a train off in the distance and the sound gets louder and the air gets heavier, your head will start to spin, the pressure on top of you gets heavier, feeling as if you are being pushed down.

Being an empath is a rough life, it is not easy and there will always be those that either think you're full of shit, even when you tell them something no one other than them could possibly know, Or that you are a walking, talking party trick.  I really advise people who are empathic not to use it like a party trick and be very careful who you allow into that experience because others energy can effect you.

A good empath is constantly cleansing to keep the dark energy away, it's a frame of mind more than sage & crystals (but they don't hurt). 

Bigfoot: Should We Really Find Them?

Bigfoot, Yowie, Abominable Snowman, Mapinguari, Sasquach, Yeti, Kapre, Batutut.  Bigfoot is known around the world and has been the stuff of legend and as a society Big Foot is still the most endearing of all myth and folklore mainly because we still haven’t captured one nor have we found any bones to prove that a large, bi-pedal ape like/humanoid walks the earth, living, or maybe hiding from the society that “hunts” it.

There are stories going back decades if not centuries of the Bigfoot creature being seen in the
Remote wilderness regions of the United States {Asian varieties of Bigfoot are the things of myth as well}.  The indigenous peoples of the pacific northwest often told stories of “Wildman” who lived in the wilderness,  Australia has the Yowie, who has been reported to attack people.  Although most scientists today tend to discount Bigfoot as a hoax {there have been plenty of those} or misidentification, like when the crew of Fact or Faked had a member dress in a Ghillie Suit and low and behold Bigfoot so in reality some reports could very well be misidentification of hunters roaming the woods of the south.

But what about shows like Finding Bigfoot, where a team of, for lack of a better word, investigators amble about in the dark beating sticks and howling in the woods.  The BFRO: The Bigfoot Field Research Organization, founded in 1995 by Matt Moneymaker, believes Bigfoot exists and are the very “investigators” out beating the bushes {or trees} trying to get a call back.   Their website has a comprehensive database of sightings and upcoming expeditions that you can join in on {of course} .   You can report your own Bigfoot sighting and watch video of encounters across the US and becoming a member is invite only.

Bigfoot {should you ever encounter one} is described as a tall{6-9 foot} ape/human like figure with brown, reddish or black hair, although some have reported seeing ones with white hair.  There were reports in the 70’s in the Philippines by American service men of a white ape/human like creature who would stalk the bases and  would get run off nightly by base security, many would not talk about the Kapre.  It could have very well just been a white ape.  In the southern most towns/villages the Kapre is known as “The Tree Demon” who dwells in the trees, has red eyes and apparently smokes, who knew…

There have been foot castings galore, Josh Gates of Destination Truth even got one {and lots of attention} when his crew went hunting in Nepal-there Bigfoot is known as Yeti. The casters claiming the footprint to be that of Bigfoot. Some footprints have been ruled to be fakes but there are those that still leave you wondering, could there really be something THAT big roaming around out there. 

I’ll admit I do find the theory of there being a Bigfoot exciting, finally finding out that all our ancestors didn’t die out and that we ended up the hybrid that won out, but then again I kind of hope Bigfoot is never found.  It would be a sad sad day in humanity when a dead, strung up Bigfoot is paraded from the woods by some half assed “hunters” who did it to get their fifteen minutes, patting each other on the back and we all know where it’ll go from there. 

But, no Bigfoot has been found and to the chagrin of many “researchers” neither have any bones, droppings or real hair. {maybe thankfully}.  If Bigfoot is as smart as many say, maybe they bury their dead, bury their droppings and clean up after themselves, then again maybe they are just people who have been shunned by the very society who now hunts them, people who are afflicted with Hypertrichosis. After all I can holler and beat on trees, why couldn’t they.

Maybe finding Bigfoot will take having to go back  at researching from an anthropological standpoint.  Find where the largest number of sightings are {after tracking them for a year}, take a back hoe, shovels, picks, sifting screens etc…..and start digging, you’re bound to find something.  If not Bigfoot maybe to your wonderment something else or…..just maybe you find what you’ve been looking for.  Everyone out there is looking for a real Bigfoot but I have yet to see any real Bigfoot research.  Like I said, mainly just a lot of people camping out having bonfires and beating the bushes and howling hoping Bigfoot steps up, If I were Bigfoot I’d hide too.  There is always someone out there trying to kill the myth and take away the folklore.

So You Want To See A UFO?

If you ask someone if they want to see a UFO, the answer from most would probably be, "Hell Yeah!! so, it's a loaded question. The better question to ask might be what would you do if you saw one. I've been involved with UFO phenomena since I was twelve. I've been chased by a black helicopter down a freeway in California in the middle of the night. I've been escorted from "military" property, and I have always stood my ground. I know what I saw/felt/was told. I rarely discuss UFOs with people outside the "community", a community, with many, many, many levels, many, many, many stories, filled with many highly educated/intelligent people.

My first experience, in the US was the day before my eighth birthday. We had just moved from the Philippines, and starting a new school and all, I saw what I found out when I was twelve to have been "The Men In Black" and they were NOT from some movie. There were other things that happened in the Phillippines, but that I'll save for a book.

I was twelve when I saw my first silver disc, slowly going back and fourth across the mountain range we can see from the front of our house. I was sixteen when I saw my first cattle mutilation. Yes, at sixteen I knew what they were and what I was looking at and we were all informed to forget what we had seen. A field of dead cows, all mutilated in a grotesque way. I later found that the way they were mutilated was something often discussed within the UFO community.

At what point do you step off the edge of reality? There are real believers and those who think anyone who thinks we are not alone in this vast universe is looney tunes, cue bugs bunny, there is some damn good evidence to prove we are not alone. One wonders if they just don't want to see it. In the field of UFOs I have found, you don't always shoot the messenger. Listen with an open mind to what both sides have to say. The gap between the believer and Non-believer is getting smaller, largely due to technology like mass hand held video cameras, the hubble space telescope, {the now defunct} shuttle program, but also because many are no longer afraid to speak up, mainly at lectures where they may find one or two people who they can talk with.

I recently got the chance to sit-in on a lecture by Ben Hansen from SyFy's Fact or Faked, put on by Haunted Orange, Skywatch, UPIO, and going in I honestly thought it would just be this guy from TV trying to sell something, he makes some pretty damn good points. Points about being too wrapped up in technology and the media to make up your own mind where the evidence is concerned, not taking the news' word for it when the "evidence" has been whittled down to a 2 second sound bite, listening to his lecture there were points that were clean.

I have spent years listening to those who claim alien abduction, those who claim they have seen a UFO. I have sat in the back of MUFON meetings, UFO conferences, listening and taking notes. I have done my own skywatching, in California, Indiana, Michigan, Italy, England and South America. I have seen my share of lights in the sky. I have been able to lend credence to my own life long experiences. I'm still not sure what I saw or have experienced after all these years but I know none of the technology was made on this planet.

Ben demonstrates an effective knowledge of all things UFO. One might lean toward him being an abductee or at most having some sort of experience. He does show a video he took with a FLIR showing a heat signature of what he calls a triangle object he could not see with the naked eye or hear, but his knowledge of the phenomena is too vast for him to have just gotten into the phenomena. He has a degree in sociology and can hit on the things that
make you think, like the selective reality of TV, the news and movies to a little bit of symbology, interestingly enough from Disney. Listening to him speak and having spent all this time, harvesting from within the phenomena for explanations I still want to know more, I would admittedly love to pick his brain. Ben shows clips of the differences between an encounter that may be real and one that could for all intense and purpose be 90% CGI. Of course you need a degree in computer animation to really tell, but there are little things that if you watch enough you can pick up on. He also speaks about how all this new found interest in the media about UFOs could be just to desensitize the public.

"Look into my eyes, What do you see"? 14% of the population believe in UFOs but only 1 in 450 would actually report seeing one. Most would talk about it, usually if someone else starts the conversation, most experiencers just don't trust or know enough about the agencies to actually report such things. So even if they would talk about it, they would never report it. Ufologists ask why and the answer to that question might be, the desensitization of the population. As Ben points out in his lecture, the news, movie industry and television gives the world a perspective from selective reality, to the point where if you were to see a UFO and little green men jumped out and shook your hand you'd probably say hi, shrug and move on. If in fact they are little green men since there are several kinds of aliens reported, Nordics {blonde hair and blue eyes}. The Grays {4 ft tall and gray with long fingers} and the Reptilians {9 ft lizards}.

"The mirror speaks but the reflection lies". If you show a person the picture of a duck ten times and a rabbit on the eleventh they will still claim to see a duck. What would the purpose be in desensitization of the population and why UFOs, if they truly don't exist why waste the time continually trying to disprove anyone who comes forward. I'm not trying to be all black ops or end of the world{even if according to AT&T my phone has a tap they can't lawfully remove} and the subject of desensitization is a vast subject not only limited to UFOs, just look at some of the shows on TV today. One thing to ask yourself when watching anything about UFOs, is it real? Ask questions, if you get no answers step back and look at it again, become involved with an open mind in your local UFO group(s). Those who are trying to desensitize the population have no answers, Ben does put it best when he says, videre non est satis- Sometimes seeing is not enough.


Sure, as with anything you will get those who run around with pictures of rubber grays on their iPhones who think it's cool and funny. It is cool, that one day it will be proven we aren't alone in the universe and that may be the reason behind desensitization. The hangers on, the people who are into UFOs to make money off others stories and pain not really caring, those I have met by the hundreds. I will stand by my feeling that Ben of course is not Mulder, even if that is the frist image that pops into your head when seeing the intro for the show, he is searching, for what, that is his own. Almost all legitimate UFO hunters are searching for answers for some reason and trying to bring some legitimacy to the phenomena, it's TV that push for drama and ratings. Maybe what needs to happen is for believers to finally see what they believe and that may be enough.

Tarot Cards: The Devil's Cards?

 In the late 1700's Eliphas Levi, Who is better known today for his involvement in The Golden Dawn along with Aleister Crowley, but that's not the case. Levi was a Catholic priest, writer, teacher who created the basis for today's most popular tarot deck. Levi studied many other religions, including Jewish, Hindu, Polish, Masonic and Cabalism. He used his background in these and astrology, astronomy and metaphysics to design the first tarot deck and incorporated his religious knowledge into them as a way for his students to learn the elements of nature as the cards represent fire, water, earth and air, spiritual enlightenment and self improvement, there are even references to the bible in some cards. Even Levi's partner in The Golden Dawn created his own tarot cards, The Thoth Deck and they are as with most tarot decks beautiful works of art.

In the 1800's a man named A.E. Waite created the Rider-Waite deck. The Rider-Waite deck is based on the Eliphas Levi deck and was published in 1896. It was widely used in Europe as a card game and the Rider-Waite deck is the most widely used version throughout the world and were extremely popular during World War 1 when introduced to western culture.

The 1990's saw an upturn in the use of tarot cards with the opening of reading rooms with Astrologers, Psychics and Mediums yet still there are those who believe that these cards are the devil's cards, that they are used by soothsayers and therefore evil. I myself own the Thoth tarot deck, carry it with me and was even once fired from a job for just having them in my purse, being called a witch, My first thought was Where is the stake literally. I learned how to read tarot while living in Italy in the 90's from some gypsies and I do pretty good at it, for myself and a small handful of friends/family I read for and if that makes me a witch in some people's eyes so be it, they fear what they do not understand.



The tarot are not evil nor used for an evil purpose, tarot are for learning about oneself or helping others on their journey, to assist in making decisions or helping others see that what they thought might be what they needed is being told by the energy they surround the cards with during a reading. Having tarot cards or having them read shouldn't be feared but the old saying, There is nothing to fear but fear itself . If having a tarot reading benefits someone follow their destined course why is that feared.

Now, you might be asking yourself, How do I get a tarot deck? First you have to go to a shop that has a wide verity of decks to choose from. Don't touch the decks, if they are not on a table or in a rack ask if you can have a few decks laid out for you. Stand in front of the decks and feel for the energy. You do not chose the cards, they chose you. The cards that are right for you will talk to you, just like when picking stones to work with. Once the deck has found you hold it in your hand and feel the box, maybe take out the first few cards and run your fingers over them or shuffle them and see if they feel natural in your hand you will know they are the cards for you.

Reading tarot is not easy to learn and the information given should never be given to subjects lightly. I have met lots of people who take the guidance of the cards as a serious business so never give that guidance lightly. Never use your personal tarot deck to do readings for others, always keep two separate decks. Anytime someone else touches your cards they leave energy behind on your cards which may be picked up by the next person you read for thus giving an awkward reading.

If you fear or doubt the tarot, remember what Teddy Roosevelt once said, The only limit to our realizations of tomorrow will be our doubts of today.

The Winter Solstice: The Backbone of World Religious Celebrations

Many today still call the celebration of the Winter Solstice a pagan ritual full of sex, and while a bit of that is true, they don't realize that the ritual that is Christmas is in itself drawn largely from the ancient ritual that celebrated the earth's tilting on its axis, where the daytime hours are weaned to a minimum and the night is longer in the northern hemisphere {in the southern hemisphere it's the opposite}. In 2007, the Winter Solstice takes place on December 22 at 6:09.

Also called Saturnalia, Yule, the Long Night, and by most, Christmas, the Winter Solstice has a long and varied history. In prehistoric times, winter was seen as a very difficult time. Tribes had to live off whatever they could store and the animals they could catch. The months were long and very cold and the Aboriginal peoples had the belief that as the sun sank lower at noon, they would be left in total darkness. But spring and warmer weather would always return, thus the idea of birth, death, and re-birth was born. The Aboriginal people were able to notice the slight elevation in the sun's path within days after the solstice, perhaps before December 25th, even without the advanced instruments and equipment used today, hence celebrations were timed about the 25th.

History of the Winter Solstice has been found as far back as the ancient Egyptians, who believed in a god-man and later, a savior. Osiris died and was entombed on December 21st; the passage reading, At midnight , the priests emerged from an inner shrine crying, the virgin has brought fourth! The light is waxing and showing and image of a baby to the worshippers.

In Ancient Greece, winter solstice became known as the ritual Lenaea, The Festival of Wild Women. In the ancient times a man would represent the harvest god Dionysus, who was torn to pieces and eaten by a gang of women only on this day. Later in the same ritual, Dionysus was reborn as a baby. By classical Greece the human sacrifice had been replaced by a goat and the women where funeral mourners and observers of the birth.

Ancient Rome also had their version of the winter solstice, called Saturnalia; this is the festival where many today still believe, because of the rather smudged history of the Winter Solstice, that the entire celebration is about sex. At about 50 BCE in Rome, Saturnalia began as a feast day for Saturn on December 17th and Ops on December 19th. Later, both were converted into a two day celebration, and during the empire the festivals were combined to cover the whole week from December 17 to the 23rd.

By the third century CE within the Roman Empire, most celebrated the birth of their god-man on or near the time of the solstice. It was the Emperor Aurelian who was responsible for the blending of a number of the pagan solstice celebrations of the nativity of god-men/saviors such as, Apollo, Attis, Baal, Dionysus, Helios, Hercules, Horus, Mithra, Osiris, Perseus, and Theseus, to name a few, into one single eventful festival named, The Birthday of the Unconquered Sun on, yep you guessed it, December 25th. However, also during that time, Mithraism and Christianity were rather fierce competitors. Aurelian declared Mithraism the official religion of the Roman Empire in 274 BCE, and Christianity became the official religion of the Empire in the 4th century BCE.

Even Buddhism celebrates the Winter Solstice, sort of. In Buddhism the day is known as Bodhi Day {Rohatsu), and is celebrated on December 8th or on the Sunday immediately preceding. Rohatsu recalls the day in 596 BCE, when it is believed that Buddha achieved enlightenment. He had left his family and all possessions at the age of 29 and sought out the meaning of life. He sat under a papal tree and vowed to stay until he found what he was looking for. On the eighth day he came to realize that everyone suffers due to ignorance, and ignorance can be overcome by following the Eightfold Path, which he advocated. This day is now regarded as the birth of Buddhism, where Buddha achieved enlightenment and escaped the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth through reincarnation, the same themes observed in many other religions in December.



The lost record of the birth of Yeshua of Nazareth, who was later known as Jesus Christ, talked about the birth of the savior of Christianity, although it is said there is sufficient evidence in the Gospels to indicate Yeshua was born in the fall, which seems to be unknown to the early Christians. Beginning in the 4th century BCE, the interest in choosing a day to celebrate Yeshua's birthday was intense. Western church leaders chose December 25th mainly because this date was already recognized throughout the Roman Empire as the birthday of the various celebrated pagan gods, and since there was no central Christian authority at the time, after some centuries the tradition had become universally accepted, but many of the symbols associated with the old pagan solstice remain in the Christian version.

Holly, ivy, mistletoe, the Yule log, giving of gifts, a decorated evergreen tree, magical reindeer, mummeries, and stage plays, all of which are ancient disorders in use now by the Christian Christmas, were derived from the Roman pagan Saturanilan and Bacchanalian festivals. The eastern churches began celebrating Christmas after 375 BCE. The churches of Jerusalem began in the 7th century, Ireland in the 5th century, with Austria, England, and Switzerland hopping in the 8th century. The Slavic lands jumped on the Christmas train in the 9th and 10th centuries. Religions all over the world have their Winter Solstice celebrations. The Druids, Inca, Muslim, Native Americans. In Iran the celebration is known as Shabe-Yalda, which has its roots in the ancient religion, Zoroastrianism, and was the state religion which preceded the religion now known as Islam. Shabe-Yalda refers to the birthday or rebirth of the sun. Followers gather at home around a korsee, {a low, square table} all night telling stories and reading poetry. The meal consists of watermelon, pomegranates, and a special mix of dried fruits and nuts, and bonfires are lit outside.

In Judaism, the eight day festival of Hanukkah, also known as the Feast of Lights is celebrated, and recalls the war fought between the Maccabees for religious freedom. In 2nd century BC, Antiochus, then the King of Syria, conquered Judea and terminated worship in the temple after stealing the scared lamp, the menorah at the altar. Later, at the time of the solstice, they re-dedicated the temple to a pagan deity. Judah the Maccabee led rebels to succeed in retaking Jerusalem, thus restoring the temple, and lit the menorah. Exactly three years after the flame was extinguished at the time of the pagan rite.

They had only found enough consecrated oil to last 24 hours, but the flame burned steady for eight days. Even though the modern menorah has nine branches, Hanukkah lasts eight days, the ninth branch is for the Shamash {servant light} used to light the other candles. In celebration to give thanks for the miracle in the temple long ago, celebrators eat potato latkes {pancakes made with potato, eggs, onions and milk, fried and served with apple sauce}, exchange gifts and play dreidel games.

So as the Winter Solstice once again is upon planet Earth, look to where your celebration may have come from. Look to others in this time of Christmas and see, we are all celebrating the same season. Everyone may not celebrate in the same way but we are all celebrating birth, death and rebirth in our own unique way. A way that our ancient forefathers saw coming thousands of years ago as they huddled in caves watching over their food stores waiting for the snow to melt and the warmth of spring to return. May your observance be merry and happy.

Paranormal Reality

When it comes to the world of the paranormal what exactly is reality?

It´s always said buyer beware and that goes for the modern "reality" TV, Watcher beware.

This article will probably piss off a lot of people but maybe it will make some think. The possibility that the super popular paranormal tv shows could be faked, Or at least……enhanced to boost ratings and keep the viewer enthralled.

It was interesting to turn on the tv one night and find a "reality" show about ghosts,
Ghost hunting and spirits. Something that was usually just whispered about and most thinking
of anyone willing to admit the belief in ghosts were nuts.

Today there are no less than ten Ghost themed shows airing across several cable tv stations, SyFy being the largest conisussuer of paranormal programming with Ghost Hunters, Ghost Hunters International, Fact or Faked, Destination Truth, and some new paranormal shows coming in 2013 like Josh Gates fan anticipated Stranded, where a group of people are dumped in a haunted location and presumably have to investigate their way out, interesting premise but….I´ll withhold thoughts since there was a show years ago on Discovery Channel that did the exact thing, how is this going to be different?

Since the premiere of Ghost Hunters the amount of Ghost Hunting groups has nearly tripled in each city. The amount of Hunted locations has at least tripled and when a location appears on one of these paranormal shows their ability to rent the location out to make big bucks off those fans who want to capture activity and meet someone from the show{s} doubles.

Now, sit back and take a deep breath and for a moment think about the movie, Paranormal Activity. Yeah, now get mad because the serious fact is, just how many of these locations have actual real Paranormal activity?

Being a fan of shows like Ghost Hunters doesn´t mean you must believe everything that pops up or is "caught". Think of the producer of these "reality" shows as sci-fi movie directors. Someone who for all intense and purpose want to, nay must keep the ratings up to remain afloat in the ever changing land of television and ghosts are hot right now.

I´m not in anyway saying there are no haunted locations, that people don´t have hauntings, That there aren´t real people out there investigating to help people. I myself have been involved in the odd paranormal research over the years. Something most of these new, heavily tattooed and pierced Hollywood ghost hunters won´t tell you, a real hardcore haunting is hard to come by.
Those stories you hear about someone being attacked by a spirit, seeing a black mass, being pushed, bit, scratched etc…..are far more random then tv would like you to believe.

I guess it´s good that it´s mainstream and maybe someone who charges twelve-
thousand dollars to appear at a convention knows a little about getting ideas into the mainstream, but then again, it could also call into question the supposed valid paranormal activity. I had a shaman once tell me, anyone who charges any fee to call on the spirits is a fake.

In this age of we want it now and anything goes reality tv, maybe there is good reason to question what you see and go back to the old adage, if you don´t see it with your own eyes or hear it with your own ears it didn´t happen, by that I´m not saying these shows aren´t entertaining but when people start taking a tv show as gospel something is wrong and they don´t call it scripted reality for nothing.

Investigating

Over the years I have run across, met, worked with some amazing people in the paranormal world.  I'll admit some are completely full of shit and are only in it for money & or fame not the science of actually trying to explain or help the spirits or the clients.

I've studied various way of investigating, from just researching a location and clients, doing psychological reports on the clients, interviewing to all out investigating using various equipment and also antagonizing entities and spirits, which is something I do not recommend.

I have found the best way to investigate a location is, if you yourself have never been there and had any sort of experience(s) there is to just sit back and let the person or people who have do it for you.

Think about it, if you have never been to the location before and are investigating off what you have been told about it you are pretty much going in half cocked.  You really don't know the extent of what goes on there.  You are not who the entity/spirit responds to.

I like to interview the witnesses, do my own sort of mini investigation.  Set up the equipment then let the client do the work.  Ok, Ok, some may not think this is a good way of being "scientific" but really it is.  That is exactly what being scientific is, set up the equipment and watch as the client has their experience(s).

There was a huge case I believe in the 70's,  where the woman claimed she was visited by a Incubus each night. That woman from the house (the 2nd she lived in & had the same experience). Placed her in a sealed lab room and recorded her experience. It was turned into a movie, The Entity, which was based on a true story and on the book, written by Frank Defelitta and published in 1978. Defelitta's book detailed the purported experiences of Doris Bither in Culver City, California.  Bither was battered and raped repeatedly by unseen forces, ghosts or demons intent on harassing and abusing her.  Is the Entity a true portrayal of events? Paranormal investigators witnessed first hand strange phenomena that convinced them that something was going on, but what.  Was it all reflexes to something imagined or was an entity actually doing the things she said.

We will never know unless there is more actual scientific investigations.  I know that it would be more than boring to watch a show like Ghost Adventures for mere scientific purpose, I mean Zak Bagans wouldn't take his shirt off....or would he.  I for one would love nothing more than to see a show devoted to watching an actual client on hidden camera as they experience the spirit activity in their environment. 

It would once and for all possibly answer the question(s) as to if it is real or made up in someone's psyche, then again, you never know what you might capture on cameras that are running 24/7 for a week.
