The Warminster Thing: 60th Anniversary Conference
The 'Warminster Thing' was a series of unexplained events surrounding the Wiltshire town in the 1960s. The events included weird noises, mysterious physical phenomena, lights in the sky, and developed into sightings of physical craft and humanoid beings. The occurrences remain a mystery to this day. Local journalist, Arthur Shuttlewood, gained international recognition as the predominant researcher, and labelled the spate of inexplicable phenomena 'The Thing' and went on to write several books on the mystery. The conference will not only cover historical accounts and conjecture on the Warminster Thing, but will also examine the possible links with ancient civilisations and earth energies. Speakers will also discuss the role that Quantum Healing Hypnosis can bring to the research, and will incorporate recent worldwide UFO activity, connecting the past with the present. Speakers include: Stuart Dike (Host), Steve Wills (UFO Researcher and author), John Hanson (UFO author & research archivist), Steve Rider (UFO/ Paranormal researcher) 'Busty' Taylor (Crop Circle / UFO Researcher), Brian McMullan Jr (from Scottish band C.E.IV), Maria Wheatley (Master Dowser / Earth Energies / author).
