Demonic Double Cross Read online

  * * * * *

  I’d like to take a break and introduce you all to a very wise man that, if he weren’t neck deep in matters that didn’t concern the living, I might have called a friend. I am speaking of Dr. Roy Martin Spriggan, who is a bottomless well of knowledge and the authority on all things paranormal. Unlike yours truly, Dr. Spriggan actually takes pride in his paranormal work and has a genuine interest in the supernatural.

  The good doctor has plenty of degrees (the majority of them PhD’s) in psychology, philosophy, sociology, theology and to wrap it up, an IQ that brushes two hundred. Basically the man is an authentic genius. He has been the host of many talk shows that discuss the afterlife and created several documentaries about the origins of the paranormal. All these accomplishments pale in comparison to his writing career, which, thanks to a cult following of several million, ensure his books are always on the best seller’s list.

  Now with that semi-modest introduction wrapped up, allow me to insert a few excerpts from Dr. Spriggan’s various works on the subject of the supernatural. I have always found these tidbits entertaining and often relevant to the situation(s) I find myself in.

  Please enjoy.

  Excerpt from Dr. Spriggan’s book “Mind Haunt: the Ghost of Disbelief.”

  I always find it amazing so many people disregard the possibility that there are some things in life that just cannot be explained by scientific or religious means. It seems that the general public has dubbed anyone who believes in such matters as superstitious, stupid or insane. This makes me laugh because the same public who condemn those of us who believe in the paranormal, also spends millions of dollars on books, films, and other media that involves ghosts, goblins, spirits, and specters.

  Why does the general public find the thought of another, hidden world right in front of our very eyes so deplorable? For the majority of the public, there are a few universal aversions to the paranormal. First and foremost being religion. If the paranormal brushes up against the subject of life after death but cannot be found inside holy script then it’s considered blasphemy. The second culprit is science, which demands that all unexplained phenomena must have a logical and formulaic answer.

  The last culprit, I strongly believe is fear. If the entire world suddenly learned that our daily lives were shadowed by paranormal instances such as ghosts, other dimensions of existence and unexplainable phenomena, what would happen to the masses? Unquenchable panic? A new thirst of knowledge that shatters old stigmas?

  Who can be certain?

  I'm certain that there are a select few amongst us that are brave enough and responsible enough with the truth concerning the supernatural that they guard it dutifully, allowing us to continue on with life as we know it. Perhaps in time, they might be willing to share what they have discovered if we are willing to listen…
