Professor Callum E. Cooper, PhD has spent two decades researching parapsychology and haunting cases with scientific rigor. His research covers out-of-body experiences, phone calls from the dead, mediumship cases, and death bed apparitions. Unlike the dismissal of paranormal research as woo, his work is grounded in psychology, statistics, and field investigation. He holds PhDs in social sciences, serves on the council of the Society for Psychical Research, and has written multiple books providing evidence that challenges conventional explanations.

Cooper studied classic haunting cases like the Cheltenham Ghost, where an apparition appeared repeatedly and could be tracked through a house. Researchers could experiment with it, follow it, and document its behavior over time. The apparition cast shadows, was seen from windows, and left questions that remain unexplained even today. He investigated Dr. Alex Tanous, who was tested for 20 years for out-of-body experiences. During experiments, strain gages were activated when Tannis performed well on remote viewing tasks. He achieved remarkable statistical outcomes describing objects in distant rooms through optical illusion devices.

Cooper's work includes phone calls from the deceased and the living, mediumship cases with verified details, and Gansfeld experiments showing statistically significant results in extrasensory perception research. Even skeptics acknowledge the statistical outcomes from Gansfeld studies are more replicated than expected in psychology. His approach separates genuine unexplained phenomena from hoaxes and hallucinations through rigorous analysis.

Liz and Professor Cooper discuss his most compelling cases, what remains unexplained in parapsychology research, how logical thinking supports rather than dismisses paranormal evidence, and what his research reveals about consciousness, death, and afterlife.
