It's always something special when you have the chance to listen to a speaker who is not only passionate about their subject but also has that knowledge of the insider, and who gently, subtly starts to draw you into their world. This is what happened at this show. There's an authority about this speaker which is unmistakable. This is not a melee of tales of ghosts and ghouls straight out of a tourist guide book, this talk finds its roots in the speaker's research and investigation as he has been involved in the world of the spirit for some time. Delivered in the grand setting of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre, this is an experience - a show which is quite out of the ordinary.
