It shares a theory on the paranormal, so skip it if you're not interested in the information below...
Including: - What is the state of belief today?
- Why does the paranormal appeal so much?
- How does the paranormal help us with our fears?
- How has paranormal belief been influenced by religion (demons, cryptozoology etc)?
