The Double-Blind Ghost Box: Scientific Methods, Examples, and Transcripts

In recent years, the paranormal has gained new footing as reality television has grabbed onto this research and created a cultural frenzy around it. There are those who are skeptics, those who believe, and those who seek to prove the existence of the paranormal. In The Double-Blind Ghost Box, authors Shawn Taylor and Daniel Morgan share their research and personal experiences with the paranormal, focusing on the development and use of the ghost box, a device that can establish a two-way communication beyond death's veil.

The Double-Blind Ghost Box reviews the process of Taylor and Morgan's studies of the device, along with how they determined its usefulness in researching the paranormal. They explore the history of the ghost box and the issues arising in today's ghost box methods, and they offer methods for conducting an objective ghost box investigation, processing ghost box evidence, analyzing the findings, and presenting the results to clients. Taylor and Morgan also discuss the different spirits an investigation might uncover and future ghost box applications and technologies.

Sharing actual transcripts of investigations, The Double-Blind Ghost Box works toward communicating the existence of the paranormal through objective research.

Shawn Taylor, cofounder of Supernatural Anomaly Investigations (SAI), was born in Hampton Roads, Virginia, and has a long history with the supernatural. As a youth he had several run-ins with ghosts, demons, and angels - not to mention all the many unexplained phenomena that birthed his interest in the field of paranormal investigations. He began studies across a wide variety of spiritual belief systems. His pursuit for knowledge stretched him to examine diverse doctrines as well as those considered commonplace.

It opened his eyes to the reality of the afterlife and the relative nature of time, space, and matter in existence. This single event sealed the deal on his soul for Christ as his personal savior. Today he hunts after the supernatural to bring to light the truth that seems to have eluded science until now. With the SAI team Shawn brings to the table a firsthand account of the afterlife. However, in this life, he brings a technical background in computer hardware, software, programming, digital media, Six Sigma problem solving, statistical analysis, psychology, counseling, and, finally, an insight for innovation. Don't be fooled: it takes a lot to spook this guy. He won't easily believe something is 'paranormal' without first exhausting himself for a logical explanation. It is this insatiable need for answers that presses him to continue his explorations to this day. Dan Morgan, cofounder of SAI, was born in Galax, Virginia, and began his experiences with the supernatural at an early age. Dan's interest in the paranormal stems from those experiences and an intense curiosity as to the science of all things supernatural. Dan sought for years for an answer to the origin of the supernatural; in 1992 he accepted Christ and beg
