Dr. Edith Fiore, a clinical psychologist and pioneer in hypnotic age regression, spent decades exploring trauma, consciousness, and — unexpectedly — alien abduction phenomena. In this episode, we dive deep into one of her most disturbing and controversial cases: the alleged abduction of an 18-year-old patient known as “Mark.”

**A REQUEST FOR HELP -- MUSEUM BOILER FUNDRAISER**

https://gofund.me/93142b013

A few weeks ago we attempted to start our old 1970s' boiler in the schoolhouse portion of the museum only to find it would not turn on. We have already been through several rounds of repairs with this boiler. Now, we have been told that the gas valve is broken. There are no replacement parts for a boiler of this age, and so we need to have it replaced. We have been quoted £3,040 to do this.

Over a year ago, my wife Laura and I opened Rowtons' Museum of the Paranormal and Spirituality in Carmarthen, Wales with the hope of reviving the incredible Grade-II listed Welsh Baptist Penuel Chapel in which we are situated into a global hub for those seeking true, open-minded spirituality. Spirituality without dogma or pretence.

In the short time that we have been here, we have had so many wonderful people come through our door and have incredible experiences, and safe and thought-provoking discussions. As this is a new venture, we have never taken a paycheck from Rowtons' Museum -- we have devoted our life entirely to making this place a reality.

If you can help us, even with just five pounds, it will help this project stay alive. We, the special objects that we care for, the building, and all of the people that come through our doors to learn and experience the unseen will be eternally grateful.

Our vision for the museum is to become an integral and vibrant community space, and thus we are humbly asking you - our community - to please help us preserve not only the building, but the museum's artefacts which depend upon warmth to preserve them. Many are old and fragile, and will struggle to survive a cold winter.

We thank you for even considering donating.

Erik and Laura

A talk in the museum's chapel by cryptozoologist and author Richard Freeman.

Some of his books include: Explore Dragons (2006), Adventures in Cryptozoology (2019), and The Highest Strangeness (2024). Richard has generously donated several artefacts to the museum, including one-of-a-kind objects relating to dragon lore and iconography.

Friend of the museum Richard Freeman was kind enough to share his visit in a recent video. Richard also donated many fascinating artefacts to Rowtons' Museum of the Paranormal and Spirituality, many of which are already on display and waiting for you to come and visit.

AND... watch this space for information regarding a future talk at the museum, in which Richard will discuss a subject matter right at the heart of many of his donations... and a new exhibit we are planning for them on the gallery of our chapel. Once this is finished, we will be releasing a full video showcasing both the new exhibit and his donations.

Exciting! Thanks again to Richard!

In this week’s episode we bring you the first of three shows recorded at the Rowton museum of the Occult and Spirituality in Carmarthen, Wales. Owners Laura ...

HAPPY SAINT DAVID'S DAY!

Did you know that St. David is responsible for the paranormal phenomena of co**se candles in Wales? According to folk belief, St. David prayed for the Welsh to receive a sign whenever a soul was about to perish. After getting a message from the other side, the saint revealed that the shape of a dimming ball of light would appear and lead the way to the place of demise... thus showing who was about to die. In this way, eerie 'co**se candles' are seen not only at the homes of the dying, but also along roads that lead to churches and graveyards. At our museum, similar orange-glow light anomalies have been seen within the chapel, possibly leading to the graveyard...

For more spooky history, ghost stories and paranormal intrigue, why not come and visit us today at Rowtons' Museum of the Paranormal and Spirituality in Carmarthen. We are open 10am to 4pm. 👻
