Produktbeschreibung
Borley Rectory was long regarded as 'the most haunted house in England', and it has been the subject of several full-length books and numerous magazines and newspaper articles, radio programmes and much speculation. After more than half-a-century's study and personal investigation of the famous Borley Rectory haunting, Peter Underwood has opened his files to present a wealth of hitherto unpublished material. Among the contents are the highly regarded lecture, A Pictorial History of the Borley Haunting; the full script of the famous 1947 BBC broadcast The Haunted Rectory; a letter sent to Harry Price recounting a personal 'Versailles vision' at Borley; the expose of The Faker of Borley; Recollections of Borley Witnesses; Harry Price at Borley - the results of a four-year in-depth exploration by an S.P.R. investigator; and a Visit to Harry Price's Home. Illustrated throughout with many hitherto unpublished photographs and drawings, this volume is a welcome and valuable contribution to the Borley story.
Autorenporträt
Peter Underwood (1923-2014), the 'Sherlock Holmes of psychical research' (Dame Jean Conan Doyle), devoted his life to the investigation of the unknown, and was regarded as 'Britain's number one ghost hunter'. For over thirty years he was President and Chief Investigator of the Ghost Club of Great Britain (founded 1862), the earliest investigative society into parapsychology. A prolific author on all things paranormal - making numerous radio and television broadcasts and lecturing extensively on psychic matters both in Britain and abroad, he was widely respected in the field for maintaining 'the middle ground between scepticism and uncritical belief'.
