Description
Are paranormal events real, or are they only a figment of our imagination? Ted Holiday addresses this issue with some startling revelations. In "The Goblin Universe" is found the world of the mind - the greater universe. This is the place of psychic phenomena, prophecies, ghosts, poltergeists, UFOs, the Men in Black, dragons, Bigfoot, and the Loch Ness Monster. This amazing world is explored through Ted Holiday's personal experiences and his search for a unified theory of the paranormal. As show more Colin Wilson points out in the introduction, we must use our intuition, as Holiday did, in order to "see" into the goblin universe - the realm of unexplained illusions. "The Goblin Universe" examines a wide range of fascination "occult" phenomena, and explores the technologies we may use to expand our native psi abilities. In what sense is this a "real" world? Ted Holiday spent the greater part of his life investigating such things, and gained valuable first-hand experience of natural phenomena, which enabled him to develop groundbreaking ideas about what they really are. Throughout history, mankind has been confronted by things that just do not fit with conventional notions of reality, yet scientists have completely failed to come to grips with the mass of evidence that has emerged. Here, at last, is a reasoned argument that offers a new way of thinking about phenomena - the foundations of a new science. show lessTags

While steeped in Holiday's Catholic bias, and limited in scope due to his time, Holiday's The Goblin Universe is still a fascinating read. He makes tenuous, yet poignant, and cherry-picked connections to press his point - something he ironically accuses von Daniken of doing in this very book - and much of Holiday's hypothesis has since been disproven. It stands more as a theological or philosophical examination of reality by way of The Unexplained, and Holiday did not intend for it to be published. He ties UFOs to cryptozoological sightings, and dismisses them all as the work of The Devil -- meanwhile advocating for the belief of one or more higher intelligences directly interfering in human lives, and perhaps responsible for all show more Creation.
The Goblin Universe contains countless case studies, and Holiday's refutation of Darwinism is a must-read, no matter your beliefs. A lot of what Holiday discusses holds up well today, and should be of interest to everyone who enjoys the paranormal. show less
