    Pan Book of Horror!

    Anyone else remember this long-running series of paperback horror fiction from Pan? http://www.trashfiction.co.uk/horror_pan.html These ghoulish covers were EVERYWHERE in Britain when I was growing up, but because I was such a sensitive wee thing, was schooled by nuns, and always found the...

    Your Invisible Childhood Friend

    In a recent UK edition of the Fortean Times there was an article discussing "imaginary" invisible friends that some children play with and consider all too real. The author of the piece felt that there was more going on than mere imagination and related stories of parents witnessing objects...

    Lighthearted Aside

    After commenting on another thread (and promptly derailing it when I mentioned the British comedian Peter Serafinowicz - sorry Skunkape!) I was reminded of Mr Serafinowicz's latest project, Radio Spiritworld. It's basically a radio show as if made by the dead. The jokes are a bit hit and miss...

    This American Life

    Just wanted to recommend the currently FREE and available-through-itunes episode of This American Life #319 - And the Call was Coming from the Basement! It's a Halloween special with lots of listener tales of strange events. But the reason I'm mentioning it here is because of the first story...

    Best US Election coverage?

    A confused Englishman writes, Can any of you recommend the best media outlet to watch the US election on? I'll be avoiding the bland BBC, Murdoch's excreable Sky News and anything from ITV. Any good internet channels you know of? I've heard that Jon Stewart is doing a live show but don't know...

    Paracast Bonked! Oo-er!

    Lame-brain presenter, Jesse Randolph of UFOnaut Radio "fame", "bonked" the Paracast this week! Eight minutes in, here's what he said, "The Paracast guys, Gene Steinberg and David Benamean (!) - good guys, they seem like they're really interested in the subject - they've been bashing some...

    Need cheering up?

    Apropos of nothing, I just stumbled across a wonderfully insane Belgian TV series, "Panique au Village". Well worth a look if you need a laugh.

    The Vertical Plane

    Have any of you Paracasters ever read an intriguing poltergeist/time-slip themed book, The Vertical Plane by Ken Webster ? I had a copy back in the early '90s, lent it out and never got it back. Grr! From what I can remember, Mr Webster did some alterations to his very old cottage in Cheshire...

    Too depressing for words...but here are a few

    Here's a link to a BBC TV report from Liverpool, UK. Liverpool UFO It's not so much the sighting itself (lights in the sky stuff) - it's the way it's reported. Air-headed journalism or more sinsiter, state-sanctioned debunking? "The BBC - Making you and your rational interest in...

    Feb 24th Atlantic Coast UFO Conference Show

    OH MY GOD Warning: Don't listen to this show in public. I listened to it on my iPod this morning whilst walking my dogs and quickly became the park loony who laughs wildly to himself. Even David's voice-channeling was funny! Hey, Sci-fi channel, History channel. Dump all your UFO...

    Good News, please

    Echoing David's sentiments about dire media slop, could all you knowledgeable Paracast listeners please recommend worthy internet news site/s for factual world reporting. Rupert Murdoch's Sky news channel here in the UK is simply diabolical whilst BBC news seems to be heading in the same...

    Photoshop Magic anyone?

    Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but I was wondering if any of the UFO research groups routinely use an application like Photoshop to recreate and produce an image of an eyewitnesses UFO sighting. I personally believe, (such as and like), that having an accurate, recreated image...

    The "Uhh/Har har har" Show!!

    Since June I have been cleansing my soul with Paracast holy water in an attempt to remove the ungodly stains of Coast to Coast abuse. (That Noory stain is so stubborn). I have been listening to the Paracast archives daily and am enjoying them all immensely but aside from the actual subject...
