Welcome to the UK Paranormal Society!
The UK Paranormal Society is a registered charity, here to guide and support the public, heritage locations, and the paranormal field.
Our purpose is to help protect the public and heritage locations from misinformation, malpractice, and exploitation relating to the paranormal. We do this by providing a freely accessible resource of reliable, factual, unbiased information and guidance; encouraging good ethical standards; and promoting scientific research into the paranormal.
Ultimately, our charity’s vision is:
“A paranormal field that progresses research whilst promoting good ethical standards, protecting the vulnerable, and preserving our history and heritage.”
