Something odd I learned recently while studying Parapsychology:
I've been taking an AI guided course on Parapsychology and a separate course on Paranormal Investigation with Elevify . The last time I studied Parapsychology was in 2008 with The Stratford Career Institute (SCI).
Stratford's version is more of a traditional correspondence course and they give you text books to keep, which I liked. Also you had real instructors, not an AI. The only reason I'm taking this AI instructed Parapsychology Course is because I took that Parapsychology course a good eighteen-years-ago so some of my knowledge is a bit out of date.
Anyway, tonight I learned that the frequency of 19 Hertz - though below normal human range of hearing- can cause mild hallucinations such as shadows, and a sense of being watched, or sensing a presence.
The theory is that vibrations of nineteen hertz causes a subtle vibration in the optic nerves and sometimes the inner ear canal so that even if you don't hear it, your body feels it, and these subtle vibrations can really mess with your perceptions.
There was at least one case of a supposed haunting where a fan was inducing a 19 Hertz "hum" and the supposed ghost activity stopped when the fan was shut off.
I had never heard of the 19 Hertz "Ghost Frequency" before. Apparently it was discovered by Vic Tandy in the 1980s but not published until 1998. That's about ten years before I took my original course.
Also I'm very slowly getting used to the notion that Poltergeist as a term is now exclusively used in cases where the so-called haunting might actually be an unconscious manifestation of psychokinetic (telekinetic) abilities from a Focus Person.
When did this shift happen? A focus person being the source of poltergeist activity was always a popular theory (actually hypothesis) but when did the label shift where the term is now exclusively for unconscious psychic phenomena?
I miss being able to use the word poltergeist for a possible active haunting and not merely Carrie White doesn't realize she's doing it.
