I'm in my early 50's, and I've been very interested in the Borley story ever since I read Harry Price's
two books some years ago. I'm not that interested generally in 'the supernatural' and I think Borley has intrigued me for
the following reasons:
Firstly, the sheer diversity of people who have reported 'phenomena' over the years has greatly impressed me. A number of those people seem to have been level-headed, rather unemotional types, not easily given to suggestion and not apparently gullible either. Can all these people be deluded? On the other hand, one should not underestimate the power of suggestion and expectation and of susceptibility to psychological reaction. This very ambiguity is really intriguing.
Secondly, the interplay between the many and varied personalities involved in the Borley saga from early times is of great interest. We have claim and counter-claim, ego, ambiguous motives, ambition, changed testimony, inconsistencies, plausible theories and rather less so ones, confusion, and statements by apparently unimpeachable sources. What is one to make of it all? Can 'ghosts exist? What is the nature of a 'ghost'? Why are some places subject to 'phenomena' and others not? There really are innumerable questions and, it must be said, very few answers!
