The King’s Psychic…
Rare footage has appeared online…
Performing a coffin trick in this footage discovered eight years ago in the cellar of a house on the Isle of Man is a mystic doctor. Sean Stowell reveals in his book ‘The King’s Psychic’ – to be published in April 2014 – how the occultist treated Edward VIII for a drink problem as the abdication crisis gripped Britain in December 1936.

He claimed to be developing telepathy as a weapon against u-boats.
