I grew up watching all the spooky, mysterious and weird TV I could find. That consisted of all the classic horror flicks and TV shows like Ghost Story with Sebastian Cabbot, The Evil Touch with Anthony Quayle (Goodnight...pleasant dreams), and my favourite of all was The Night Stalker. The first really unsettling film I remember watching was The Haunting which was made in 1963, coincidentally my year of birth, I slept with my hands tucked under me for many years after seeing that film, I didn't want any ghosts grabbing me by the wrist.

I started performing magic when I was about 25-ish and then became more interested in mentalism at 30. Since then I've amassed a great library of mentalism and bizzarre books (the latest one is the complete bound Altar Flame) and videos/DVD's. I love bizarre magic but haven't performed it professionally (apart from an occasional routine in close up) mainly for friends in an informal setting. The thing that I would dearly love to do professionally is a theatrical seance. That has been a passionate goal ever since I read Eugene Burger's Spirit Theater years ago. I have found a perfect venue for it, now I just have to find the motivation and discipline to put it together and actually do it...that's the hard part.
It's great to be here and I'm looking forward to skulking about the hallways and nooks, I hope to meet you all along the way.
