THE TUJUNGA CANYON CONTACTS tells the true stories of five young
women "abductees" who lived in and near Tujunga Canyon, northeast
of Los Angeles, and who were all linked by more or less intimate
personal relationships. The abductions and related events, which
took place over a period of more than two decades, were first
investigated by UFO researcher Ann Druffel for five full years, and
later by Druffel and parapsychologist D. Scott Rogo together. Many
of the abduction details first revealed in the Tujunga Canyon case
have been confirmed in the hundreds of cases that followed it.
First published during the peak of the 20th century's UFO abduction
epidemic, THE TUJUNGA CANYON CONTACTS was only the second book
written about so-called "alien abductions." This edition of the
classic work contains the two new chapters prepared for the updated
version of the book. During this updating of the story, Druffel
first realized that abduction scenarios can be fended off by
strong-willed, confident experiencers, since three of the five
young women intuitively discovered, and used, various "resistance
techniques" to fend off, and eventually end, the harrowing attacks.
Breaking through the inhibitions of the field of parapsychology, D.
Scott Rogo explores the possibility and examines the evidence that
we are actually populating our universe with psychic
creations-beings, objects, and other phenomena--that have taken on
a physical reality and are now haunting our planet. "At first
glance one could dismiss this book as ingenuous, but in fact it is
both well-considered and brave. It is a rational discussion of
phenomena which, if true, would be considered parapsychological,
but which even parapsychologists tend to reject out of hand, even
as their critics dismiss phenomena parapsychologists consider
legitimate. Rogo treats such taboo topics as teleportation,
religious miracles (weeping and bleeding statues, materializations,
mysterious lights and apparitions associated with religious
figures), psychic phenomena associated with UFOs, the reality of
evil, and types of "Forteana" likely to have a psi explanation." -

The world of psychic research is a world of vast discovery and
puzzles on the one hand, and deceit, con artistry, and
self-delusion on the other. It is a schizoid world that can affect
anyone who touches its Janus-like face. This book looks at both the
genuine and the fraudulent, as well as the often incredible
controversies which underlie the field of parapsychology. It is a
very personal, behind-the-scenes look at what really happens when
researching psychic phenomena. In Search of the Unknown "is crammed
with a rich and entertaining variety of experiences that range from
Rogo's] experiences in a haunted house to first-hand research into
the out-of-the-body experience. The most attractive features of the
book are its freshness, uninhibited first person narratives, and an
approach to psychic phenomenon that mixes curiosity and skepticism
in proper proportion." - Martin Ebon D. Scott Rogo (1950-1990) was
one of the most widely respected writer-journalists covering the
field of parapsychology, as well as an active scientific
investigator. Educated at the University of Cincinnati and San
Fernando Valley State College, Rogo held a unique position in
parapsychology and made many contributions to the field that
deserve recognition. He served as a visiting researcher at the
Psychical Research Foundation, then in Durham, North Carolina, and
at the Division of Parapsychology and Psychophysics of the
Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. He published
papers on ESP in referred parapsychological journals and was active
in field investigations of hauntings and poltergeists. Rogo was
also a leading authority on the history of psychical research; the
breadth of his historical knowledge of the field was unsurpassed.
Over the course of more than two-dozen published books, Rogo sought
to broaden the range of topics worthy of paranormal research.
A glowing cross in the window of a church in Florida. A bleeding
statue of Christ in Philadelphia. A young boy cured of his
blindness at Lourdes. The stigmata of Padre Pio. An appearance of a
figure thought to be the Blessed Virgin Mary before thousands of
witnesses. The image on the Shroud of Turin. Parapsychologist D.
Scott Rogo examines a variety of miracles, great and small, in
Miracles: A Parascientific Inquiry into Wondrous Phenomena. The
phenomena can be Miraculous Talents (levitation, stigmata,
bilocation), Miraculous Events (divine images, miraculous
hailstones, bleeding statues and weeping madonnas), or Miraculous
Interventions (Marian apparitions, miraculous healings). Rogo
attempts to present the scientific rather than religious case for
the miraculous, and in the process comes to a fresh and surprising
interpretation about the nature of miracles. "Miracles is a
fascinating account of the Christian legacy of wondrous phenomena.
The book is unique in that its author attempts a scientific
evaluation of these accounts and of the world view of their
proponents." - Stanley Krippner, professor of psychology, Saybrook
Graduate School, San Francisco "It's a wonderful book and I
recommend it to you all." - Richard Hatem, creator of the
"Miracles" TV series D. Scott Rogo (1950-1990) was one of the most

Parapsychologists have uncovered irrefutable evidence that psychic
abilities - including telepathy, precognition, and psychokinesis -
exist. But they are not "gifts" in any sense of the word. They are
potentials. And as potentials, they are something we all inherently
possess and can develop. The only problem is: how can we tap and
use these abilities reliably? In Our Psychic Potentials, D. Scott
Rogo presents some very specific strategies - some known about for
hundreds of years, others recently discovered - for accessing our
psychic potentials. These psychic development techniques involve
dreaming, mental imagery, relaxation, suggestion, and feedback.
Called "open minded," "frank," and "refreshing" by readers, this
step-by-step guide to self-testing and psychic training also
examines the scientific evidence that our psychic abilities can
indeed be developed and used on demand. D. Scott Rogo (1950-1990)

There is no mystery greater than that posed by the poltergeist. The
"noisy ghosts" of legend and folklore represent some of the most
complex phenomena known to-but generally ignored by-science.
Psychological research indicates that poltergeists focus on unhappy
families who tend to repress and sublimate massive amounts of inner
aggression and anger. This anger tends to build within the mind of
one of the family members until it explodes outward in the form of
the poltergeist. But is that the whole answer? On the Track of the
Poltergeist is D. Scott Rogo's autobiographical account of his
search to witness and document these rare phenomena. Backed by this
experience and research, he is able to present a critical
reevaluation of what we think we know about the poltergeist. Rogo
also explains how to respond when confronted with a poltergeist
outbreak and how to carry out field investigations of the
phenomenon. D. Scott Rogo (1950-1990) was one of the most widely

D. Scott Rogo's A Casebook of Otherworldly Music is a unique
examination of an often-neglected subject - psychic music. The book
was originally titled: NAD: A Study of Some Unusual "Other World"
Experiences. What is NAD? It's a Sanskrit term signifying
transcendental, astral, psychic, or paranormal music - music heard
from no apparent source. "One is continually impressed not only by
Rogo's familiarity with this range of literature but even more by
his keenly critical appraisal of the sources involved.One can
applaud this pioneering effort.Those who are open-minded enough to
read Rogo without pre-supposition, however, will find this volume
filled with intriguing case material and much provocative
theoretical material." - Parapsychology Review " Rogo] has done a
thorough job of combing the psychic literature and one could not
ask for a more thorough job of compiling and editing these
previously neglected cases. He deserves our thanks for focusing his
impressive grasp of the psychic field on this highly interesting
phenomenon and his scholarly book deserves the attention of every
serious student of the psychic field." - Fate "A book on this
subject has been overdue for some time, so the present
well-documented volume is most welcome. It can readily be seen what
a thorough treatment this fascinating subject has received at the
hand of Mr. Scott Rogo." - Journal of the Society for Psychical

This second volume of D. Scott Rogo's groundbreaking study of
paranormal music experiences examines their relation to out of body
experiences, survival after death, and other psychic phenomena. A
Psychic Study of the Music of the Spheres also tackles the question
of auditory hallucinations head on, and provides a fascinating
theoretical discussion of how paranormal music is "heard." Finally,
by applying the technique of pattern analysis to 58 cases of
paranormal music experiences, Rogo is able to draw meaningful
conclusions about the reality - and source - of this "otherworldly"
music. "I wish to state that I believe this book represents a very
significant and pioneering study of a little-known psychical

In this thorough and balanced account, researcher D. Scott Rogo
offers a critical and scientific examination of reincarnation. He
considers the various forms of past-life recall (dreams, waking
visions, d j vu), the most impressive case studies, and the history
of research into reincarnation. He then concludes the book with an
examination of explanatory models that can account for the
phenomenon. Rogo concludes that some people can indeed tap into the
memories of other people, cultures, and places long removed in
time, but proposes that the evidence might be pointing to something
more complex than our traditional views of reincarnation. "The
Search for Yesterday is probably the single best book critiquing
the research on reincarnation." - George Hansen, The Trickster and
