Rowlett's the best kind of Fortean* reporter, in that he lays out the paranormal details without ever once questioning whether ghosts, psychic phenomena or visitations from extra-terrestrials are even near the borders of reality. That's for the reader to decide.
And if nothing else, even the most scientific among us should let go of preconceptions as often as possible, leaving the window of possibility open just a crack while our rational minds sleep. The fresh air is good for you.
Rowlett does reveal his leanings with his account of living in a haunted house. Aside from that, there's plenty of brain-tickling goodness within his site, such as this short piece on the use of opium during the Victorian era.
Also of interest is the true tale of the day a BBC news broadcast was interrupted by an audio broadcast from a purported space alien who warned mankind of impending doom. What's taking so long?
*We'll discuss Charles Fort and The Fortean Times soon.
