Long before we heard of John Edwards or James Van Praagh, there were other persons who demonstrated with convincing evidence of their real paranormal powers. Some you may have heard of through stories or just plain simple knowledge of paranormal history. they were just your average person like you and I. They were just graced with "gifts" of extarodinary abilities.

Most likely one of the twentieth centuries most known mediums. Ms. Garrett recieived notoriety to the public achieving world headlines after her seance at the National Laboratory of Psychical Research in London on October 7, 1930. Ms. Garrett was also a sensitive.
A author, lecturer and publisher. Along with Hon. Frances Bolton she founded the Parapsychology Foundation in 1951. It was formed to provide support and scientific exploration of the psychic phenomena. The foundations programs meet these goals. It also has one of the world's largest libraries pertaining to parapsychology and psychical research.

Just two days before her famous seance British Airship R101 had crashed into flames at Beauvais, northern France. Many passengers had perished in this harrowing accident. The Captain, Flight Lieutenant Carmichael Irwin was also killed.
