  • Anon Omous & Jerry Marzinsky (Anon's Story)

    Anon Omous & Jerry Marzinsky (Anon's Story)
     
    Trained as a mechanical tektōn by profession, Anon chose to self-educate on the various metaphysical paths and religious tools for relating to the cosmos.  He constantly seeks spiritual knowledge as a means for combining the poles of logic and emotion while being immersed in the daily routine of life.  Relying on an inner intuition and unique sensitivity, he constantly attracts information on how to form a better perspective on what defines reality.  In a quest to find God, the roadmap is both a journey inward as well as an expression outward.
     
    Anon's identity and personality have been influenced and exposed to the pop culture and global consciousness of the 1960s to the current day.  As a layperson observer of human nature with a limited understanding of the patterns of both functional and dysfunctional behaviors, he wishes to remain incognito for now.  He strives to maintain a spiritual core by preferring to put the religious mysteries into everyday practice rather than dwell and obsess on the alleged divine relationships of human characters, although he does occasionally drift. 

    Anon underwent profound and mystical experiences in his early twenties after surviving and surpassing environments of dysfunctional influences.  Through his accumulation of life lessons and internal explorations, he hopes his book will accelerate the power of love within your being for the achievement of great accomplishments.  Realizing that we all must occasionally put on masks to be actors within environments of ignorance and to choose our battles wisely, he hopes to improve world conditions by awakening the savour in all of us, for now is the time for humanity to wake up and raise its consciousness to a higher state.

    Tom Matte (Upsight Vision)
     
    Since 2012, Tom has been on a mission to better understand Upsight Vision. After 10 years of constant rejection, he finally connected with Dean Radin and the scientists at IONS to begin testing the “Upsight Vision” phenomenon. The results of which are this first peer reviewed paper. But this is only the beginning. More testing needs to be done to truly discover the limits of this phenomenon. And importantly, there are others with this ability, they just might not know it yet.

  • Larry E. Arnold (Stories of SHC)
    About Larry E Arnold, director of PSI: ParaScience International.
     
    After leaving Lafayette College and a brief career in electrical engineering, Larry founded ParaScience International in 1976 to pursue the exploration of fortean anomalies and consciousness. His controversial article published in August, 1978, titled “Meltdown…at TMI-2” would 8 months later be termed “uncannily accurate” by The Philadelphia Inquirer in presaging the future of that nuclear power plant's ‘impossible’ Class IX meltdown near his home.
     
    An author of four pioneering books – The Parapsychological Impact of the Accident at Three Mile Island (1980), The Reiki Handbook (1982), and ABLAZE! The Mysterious Fires of Spontaneous Human Combustion (1995) translated into Japanese (1998) – he is regarded by many as the world’s expert on spontaneous human combustion (SHC) and, consequently, by others as a “mystery monger” and “world-class fool.”
     
    He is published in, among others, Fate; Fortean Times (United Kingdom); INFO Journal; Life; Pennsylvania Association of Arson Investigators (PAAI) Newsletter; Pennsylvania Magazine; Pursuit (Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained); Esotera (Germany); Science Digest; Seeing Journal; Rainbows; Susquehanna Monthly Magazine; UFO Annual; UFO Report; and UFO Universe. He has been a guest on hundreds of radio and internet-radio programs, including Howard Stern, The Art Bell Show, and multiple episodes of CoastToCoastAM.
     
    He co-produced for and has appeared on numerous television programs, including That’s Incredible! and Best of That’s Incredible! (ABC); ABC Family; The Unexplained (A&E); American Heroes Channel; BBC; BBC-1; Unexplained Mysteries: The Unreal World (Biography); the fifth estate (CBC); Beyond Belief (CoastToCoastTV); The Unexplained Files (Destination America); X-Testers and Weird or What? and Investigation X and The Unexplained Files (Discovery); Fringe (Fox); FoxFamily; Extremely Weird (FoxReality); History International; ITV-4; “Modern Miracles” on Leeza (syndicated); “Medical Mysteries” on The Maury Povich Show (syndicated); Unsolved Mysteries and The Other Side (NBC); Is It Real? (National Geographic TV); Encounters with the Unexplained (PAX-TV); Investigation X and The Unexplained Files (ScienceChannel); Unsolved Mysteries (Spike-TV); Sightings and Weird or What?, eg. (SyFy); Spontaneous Combustion (TLC); The Unexplained Files (TravelChannel); Paranormal Borderline (UPN/Paramount); Channel 8 (WFLA-TV); Live–The Paranormal, eg. (WGAL-TV); Friday AM and Doc Ferguson Show, eg. (WHTM-TV); People Are Talking (WBAL-TV); People Are Talking (WJZ-TV); PM Magazine (WJZ-TV); Chicago AM (WLS-TV); Take Note (WPSU-TV); plus French, Japanese, and Korean TV networks.
     
    As of 2023, The Unexplained Files SHC episode is likely the most-aired of all ScienceChannel’s programming.
     
    He has lectured about the paranormal at Albright University; American University; Drew University; Elizabethtown College; Harrisburg Area Community College; Lebanon Valley College; Marist College; Messiah College; Shippensburg University; the University of Nebraska; and The Arthur Findley College for Psychical Studies in England.

    Brian King-Sharp (Backwoods Stories)
     
    Brian, a native of Northwestern Georgia, has been captivated by the mysteries beyond our understanding since childhood. Enthralled by tales of hairy creatures in the mountains near his home, a personal encounter as a child ignited his deep fascination with Sasquatch, propelling him into a world of endless exploration.
     
    After a sixteen-year career in law enforcement, Brian turned his passion into a hobby by starting a podcast. Unexpectedly, this hobby evolved into something much greater. By 2022, his "Sasquatch Odyssey" podcast had become one of the most popular shows in the realm of Sasquatch encounters, captivating a diverse audience. Brian has conducted hundreds of interviews with eyewitnesses and undertaken field research on his expansive forty-acre property in North Carolina, as well as in Tennessee and British Columbia, Canada—all in pursuit of answers to the Sasquatch mystery.
     
    Brian's success and his knack for captivating storytelling have earned him recognition beyond the podcasting world. He has been a guest on numerous podcasts and featured on television shows aired on the Vice Network and Tubi. As a skilled public speaker and host, he has graced the stages of Sasquatch conferences and festivals across the United States and around the world.
     
    Not content with a single venture, Brian is also the founder and CEO of Paranormal World Productions, LLC. In addition to "Sasquatch Odyssey," he hosts other intriguing podcasts such as "True Crime Odyssey," "Backwoods Horror Stories," "Weird Encounters," and "That Bigfoot Podcast," showcasing his diverse talents and unwavering commitment to exploring the uncharted territories of the paranormal world.

  • Dr. Rick Spence (Aleister Crowley)
    Prof. Richard Spence (Aleister Crowley)
     
    Richard Spence's book "Secret Agent 666: Aleister Crowley, British Intelligence and the Occult" explores the controversial life of Aleister Crowley, a renowned occultist and writer, and his involvement with British intelligence during World War I.
     
    The book examines Crowley's connections to various intelligence agencies, including the British Secret Service, and the extent of his involvement in covert operations during the war. It also sheds light on Crowley's influence on other notable figures of the time, including Winston Churchill and Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond series. It's a fascinating exploration of the intersection between the world of espionage and the occult, and the ways in which the two worlds were intertwined during a critical period in history. It offers a unique perspective on Crowley's life and legacy, and provides insight into the often-secretive world of intelligence operations during the early 20th century.
