Fakelore and the Paranormal

A Livestream Class with Tim Weisberg

Sunday, October 5 at 12:15 pm in Spectral

Join Tim Weisberg for an exploration of the rising phenomenon of “fakelore”—narratives presented as true folklore that have actually been concocted—and how it has influenced paranormal research. Not only does fakelore impact the true histories of allegedly haunted locations, but it has also produced an unexpected side effect: people are actually communicating with ghosts that were entirely made up through “folklore.”

Is this some kind of delusion, or are we actually conjuring up egregores through false narratives? Discover the answer in this fascinating workshop on what's real—and what isn't!
