Fiona Broome is an author, researcher and consultant.  An unabashed geek, Fiona analyzes and predicts anomalies, as well as reports of paranormal activity.

For more than 25 years, Fiona has researched and written about ghosts and haunted places.  Over 500 of her articles appear at HollowHill.com.

Fiona’s current ghost-related books include:

The Ghosts of Austin, Texas (Schiffer Books, 2007)

Ghost Hunting in Haunted Cemeteries: A How-To Guide (New Forest Books, Oct 2009)

Is My House Haunted? (New Forest Books, Jan 2010)

Nearly ready:

Ghost Photography 101 (due by mid-2010)

Fiona is working on these additional books for publication in 2010:

• The Ghosts of Salem, Massachusetts
• Paranormal Patterns: Predicting Anomalies and Hauntings.

For a complete list of Fiona’s recent and upcoming books, see the Books link, above.

In addition, Fiona was the “guest star” (as Fiona, the ghost hunter) in the Charmed novel, Trickery Treat by Diana S. Gallagher.

However, ghost research is just one of Fiona’s specialties.

She is equally acquainted with folklore related to faeries, and Celtic (and pre-Celtic) spirituality, lore & legends, and a variety of other odd & interesting subjects.

Ms. Broome’s current research relates to patterns of paranormal activity.

This work touches on a wide range of topics, including:

• ghosts and faeries
• UFOs and cryptozoology
• Hollow Earth Theory and Expanding Earth Theory
• alternate history
• popular shows such as Sliders, Demons and Primeval
• Arthurian lore
• the Mandela Effect
• anomaly studies including the Global Consciousness Project.

In a nutshell, Fiona is not convinced that all hauntings actually involve ghosts. Paranormal reports may relate to parallel realities, or other quantum concepts.

By predicting where (and sometimes when) anomalies will occur, Fiona hopes that researchers will be better prepared to analyze those events.

With more reliable data about the paranormal, researchers may find answers that are supported by real science.

Fiona’s podcasts include Hollow Hill podcasts and Faerie podcasts.  All of Fiona’s podcasts are available — free of charge — at iTunes.com.  (Search for “Fiona Broome” to find them.)
