The Psychology of Ghosts and Hauntings

Imperial Atheists, Secularists and Humanists are hosting a week full of events for the start of the Autumn term, so if you're of a skeptical nature, make sure to mark out 12th - 16th October in your diaries. We'll be meeting at 18:10 every evening to hear a talk and Q&A on a load of different topics, followed by drinks and much intelligent conversation in the Union. Best of all, the events are all free! (although you should seriously buy our membership) This evening we're hearing from Professor Chris French. Chris is the Head of the Anomalistic Psychology Research Unit at Goldsmiths, University of London. He is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society and a member of the Scientific and Professional Advisory Board of the British False Memory Society. He has published well over 120 articles and chapters covering a wide range of topics. He frequently appears on radio and television casting a sceptical eye over paranormal claims, as well as writing for the Guardian and The Skeptic magazine.
