Philip, The Imaginary Ghost (Toronto; 1970s)

[exeuni]

Dear all,

I am looking to get hold of a copy on video of the old 15-minute documentary "Philip, the Imaginary Ghost" as an aid to a current research project.

If anyone has a copy, or knows of a place where I could obtain one, can you please let me know via this board so that I can make contact.

Many thanks.

Its a rather old link but....

There's a guy here who says he has a copy of the film and he gave the link to it for a short while. Maybe you could contact him and ask for the link to the film?

I remember reading about the case in The Unexplained part-work.

Rather jolly fun, I say!

Feyri,

Thanks for the reply. I have already emailed this contact a few days ago as I had spotted that one. Unfortunately, although the email address still seems to be live, I have not had a reply.

That has been the only avenue I have been able to find up until now though, unfortunately.

I have a book by John Spencer with a chapter in it about the created ghost Phillip. Its a very strange thing they appeared to have done and any more info on it would be great.

Very interesting. I had never heard about this before.

David Ambrose's novel Superstition is an excellent riff on this investigation.
