Gail Godfrey is the author of A Paranormal Reader. Here she answers questions about her own experiences and how she came to write her book. She writes, “ Listening to the wounded cry 150 years after a battle has ended, seeing solid-as-you-and-I dead people, mediums that spill family secrets, voices without bodies, spirits who drop by, precognition, remote viewers, mystic visions, near-death experiences, out-of-body travelers….
