"The Entity" Real-Life Researchers on Eyewitness LA (1970s)

Dr. Barry Taff & Kerry Gaynor filmed at the UCLA Parapsychology Lab in the seventies, discuss the genesis of "The Entity" poltergeist case later made into a movie starring Barbara Hershey (1981). Also, they discuss the Wiseman haunting at Palos Verdes, CA & theories of what poltergeists really represent. This may be the earliest existing interviews of the two ghosthunters. Taff & Gaynor later worked as technical consultants on the movie based on their experiences at the Doris Bither home located on Braddock Street in Culver City where the phenomenon began.

    Dr Taft is an amazing guy, he is a levelheaded, intelligent guy that's well versed in this subject, which is elusive and erratic at best, this story and the San Pedro case are my two favorite studies into this mysterious field.
