Ben Emlyn-Jones at High Wycombe Paranormal Meet-Up

I will be speaking at the High Wycombe Paranormal Meet-Up group on Wednesday the 27th of August. The event starts around 7.30 PM and the venue is the Bricklayers Arms, High Street, Downley, High Wycombe, HP13 5XJ. Just £2 entry. See here for more details; you'll need to log into a Facebook account: https://www.facebook.com/groups/415462125205125/. My lecture is entitled Helen Duncan and the Witchcraft Trial- 70 Years On. In 1944 the psychic medium Helen Duncan was put on trial under the two hundred year old Witchcraft Act of 1735 because she was accused of defrauding the public by staging a fake seance. Was she really a fake medium? Or was something more complicated and furtive going on, something related to espionage and wartime security?
