Barry E. Taff holds a doctorate in psychophysiology with a minor in biomedical engineering. He worked at UCLA’s former parapsychology laboratory from 1969 through 1978. He also was investigated as a psychic subject, the results of which were published in Behavioral Neuropsychiatry. He is author of Aliens Above, Ghosts Below: Explorations of the Unknown. His website is www.BarryTaff.net.

Here he describes a variety of experiences involving recurring, spontaneous, psychokinesis that he attributes to individual, living human beings. He suggests a sophisticated hypothesis involving geomagnetic anomalies coupling with the unusual brain activity of certain individuals — particularly those subject to seizures. He also provides details of an investigation that was later fictionalized into a motion picture, The Entity.
