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 has a technical background in computer hardware, software, programming, digital media, Six Sigma problem solving, statistical analysis, psychology, and counseling.

Daniel Morgan earned degrees in behavioral science and electrical engineering.

The scene is a cobblestone road on the outskirts of Ancient Rome, at about the time of Caesar. An impeccably uniformed young Centurion drives a chariot erratically at full speed for a hundred meters or so, then, he stops, gets out and kicks the bloody body tied to the chariot. He again mounts the chariot, and whips the horses to a sudden start hoping to break the neck of the victim and bring this cruel ordeal to an end. Finally, the body fails to respond to the kicks.

Standing beside the once handsome body of a powerful athlete, but unseen to his executioner, is the indwelling spirit of Antonius giving thanks to the gods that his ordeal is finally over. He takes one last look at what had been his body, sadly turns his back on the world of flesh with all its pain and blends with the light of the unfamiliar realm of the gods.

For the past half-hour, Anne Armstrong, a petite young woman (my wife, Anne Armstrong), affectionately known to her friends and husband as Eddie, had lain upon a couch in the suburbs of Sacramento, California nearly 2,000 years later, reliving every excruciating moment of the torture.

Part II
"If I, Kundalini, appear reluctant, when you begin to re-direct me to the higher centers, it is because I wish to experience the most powerful expression of which I am capable. So I ask, how am I to be used? If I am to move up the spine, will I be given the proper encouragement and dedication that is necessary for me, Kundalini, to achieve my purpose? If this is not a serious intent there will be reluctance on my part to even listen. For I want to express myself in the most powerful way.
