Author Kirby Robinson talks about his new book, Paranormal Reality: Investigating Paranormal State

Below is the book's promotional literature, not the views of Claranormal. "Paranormal Reality: Investigating Paranormal State" by Kirby Robinson and Lisa Maliga is the first book to take a candid and critical look behind the scenes of the A&E program, Paranormal State. This show featured members of the Penn State Paranormal Research Society led by Ryan Buell and a cast of para-celebrities such as Michelle Belanger, Chip Coffey, CJ Sellers, Lorraine Warren, and Chad Calek. This book uncovers secrets about what went on behind the scenes, and it answers questions about the show's validity. In almost every single episode the reader may find one or more of the following: staged scenes, planted or falsified evidence, fake exorcisms, and crew members masquerading as experts. We learn of clients who were ridiculed, and those who were promised help but were left with more problems. The authors scrutinize Ryan Buell's book, "Paranormal State: My Journey into the Unknown" co-written with Stefan Petrucha. They uncover discrepancies when it comes to what really went on during the filming relying on hours of extensive video analysis and candid interviews with confidential informants who were on the set during filming. Current and former members of PRS, para-celebrities, paranormal investigators, and clients featured on the show have also been interviewed. "Paranormal Reality: Investigating Paranormal State" will reveal a side of the show that viewers weren't ever intended to see.
