The Battersea Poltergeist

April 20, 2021April 20, 2021 Deborah 6176 Views ghosts, poltergeists

In episode 9 ‘Doubt and Wonder‘, series producer Danny Robins and I discuss whether the Battersea Poltergest case was supernatural or understandable in more mundane terms.

This series is really enjoyable to listent to, whether you are a believer or a skeptic.

After hearing everything, I was still a skeptic.

I’m a chemist. I need to say this - because it’s getting dangerous out there. The biggest health myth in the world isn’t about vaccines.

Or GMOs. Or fluoride.

It’s the root of all of them.
It’s called chemophobia - and it’s killing science.

Fear of “chemicals” now drives
