🕯️ SPECIAL EDITION: LORD BYRON & THE BLACK FRIAR OF NEWSTEAD ABBEY 👻

Some ghost stories are born around a fire. Others are passed down through generations, clinging to the walls of places that have witnessed centuries of history.

And then there’s the Black Friar of Newstead Abbey.

I’ve always been fascinated by the darker side of literary history, particularly when the lives of extraordinary writers become entangled with ghost stories of their own.

Lord Byron is remembered for his poetry, scandalous reputation, and larger-than-life personality. But his ancestral home, Newstead Abbey, carried a chilling legend: a mysterious hooded friar whose appearance was said to foretell misfortune.

What makes this story especially intriguing is the way the haunting became intertwined with Byron’s own life and the history of the abbey.

For this Halloween Special Edition of The Oracle of the Green Sight, we’re stepping inside the shadowy world of Newstead Abbey to explore the legend, the history, and the ghostly figure said to wander its halls.

Was the Black Friar a supernatural warning, an inherited family superstition, or something that refuses to be explained?

Come explore this wonderfully eerie chapter of haunted literary history with me. 🖤

👻 SPECIAL EDITION: THE GHOST OF EDGAR ALLAN POE: A STRANGER ON SULLIVAN’S ISLAND 🐦‍⬛

There’s something about visiting a place connected to a writer whose stories have haunted our imaginations for generations.

I’ve had the pleasure of spending time on Sullivan’s Island and visiting Poe’s Tavern, and there’s a particular atmosphere there that stays with you. Knowing that Edgar Allan Poe once walked those shores makes the island’s history all the more fascinating.

And after a special evening at the historic Strand Theatre, where I was completely captivated by the talent of the performers and the worlds they brought to life, I’ve been thinking even more about the power of storytelling and the way certain stories linger long after the final curtain.

For this Halloween Special Edition of The Oracle of the Green Sight, I’m taking you back to Sullivan’s Island, where Poe served as a young soldier under an assumed name and where stories of a mysterious figure resembling the famous writer have become part of the island’s ghostly lore.

We’ll explore the reported encounter, Poe’s real history at Fort Moultrie, and the legends that continue to surround his name.

Was it simply a stranger on the island, or something far more unusual?

Come wander the shores with me. 🌙

🔮👁️ CLAIRVOYANCE & THE PSYCHIC MIND: SEEING BEYOND THE SENSES — PART ONE

What if you could see somewhere you had never been?

Not imagine it.

Not dream about it because someone had described it to you.

But somehow perceive a distant place, a hidden object, or something completely beyond the reach of your physical eyes.

After Victorian psychical researchers began investigating telepathy, another unsettling question emerged.

What if there was no other mind sending the information at all?

In this next chapter of The Oracle of the Green Sight, we enter the strange history of clairvoyance and the attempts to understand what it might mean to see beyond the ordinary senses.

We follow one extraordinary case in which a woman believed she traveled across the Atlantic to her husband’s ship, while he dreamed of her presence and another man reportedly saw her.

We enter the early experiments with hidden information.

And then we reach one of the most enduring objects in paranormal history...

The crystal. 🔮

Was crystal gazing simply the mind producing vivid imagery?

Could forgotten memories rise unexpectedly into consciousness?

Or did some people occasionally see something they could not possibly have known?

The Victorians struggled with those questions.

And before long, clairvoyance would lead them somewhere stranger still.

Because seeing across distance was one thing.

Seeing across time was another. ⏳

🎃👻 The Halloween Special Editions begin...

A week ago today, I was sitting inside the historic Strand Theatre in Marietta for the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy.

I went because, well... Edgar Allan Poe in a beautiful old theater was pretty hard for me to resist. But while I was there, I found myself wondering about the Strand itself.

An old theater. Nearly a century of history. Darkened balconies, backstage corridors, dressing rooms, a stage that has seen generations come and go...

Surely there were stories.

There were. 👻

The Strand has collected its own ghostly lore over the years, including Bev, a mysterious presence associated with the balcony, and Rik, a young spirit said to linger backstage. There is also one particularly strange account involving a missing wallet and an unexpected helping hand from someone who may not have been entirely... present.

And then there is the ghost light. 🕯️

So, exactly one week after I sat inside the Strand listening to tales from Edgar Allan Poe, I’m returning to the theater in a slightly different way.

This time, I’m looking for its ghosts.

🎭 The Haunted Strand Theatre: Ghosts Behind the Curtain

This is the first of several Halloween Special Editions I’ll be sharing throughout October on The Oracle of the Green Sight. I have some wonderfully eerie places, literary ghosts, strange histories and genuine paranormal traditions waiting for us this month.

But our first stop is Marietta.

Come behind the curtain with me. 🕯️👻

🧠🌙 TELEPATHY BEYOND THE LABORATORY

What happens when telepathy leaves the laboratory?

In Part One, we followed Victorian researchers as they tried to test thought-transference under controlled conditions.

But outside those experiments, people were reporting something far stranger.

A woman awakens feeling a violent blow to her mouth at almost the same time her husband is injured miles away.

A man sitting in a Toronto theatre suddenly sees the agonized face of his twin brother, who is actually thousands of miles away in China.

And a familiar woman appears to walk silently across a dining room when no one else can see her.

These were the kinds of cases that fascinated nineteenth-century psychical researchers and raised an extraordinary question:

Where does telepathy end… and a ghost begin? 👻

In the newest chapter of The Oracle of the Green Sight, we leave controlled experiments behind and enter the strange world of spontaneous telepathy, shared sensations, crisis apparitions, and the mysterious “phantasms of the living.”
