Hi, I'm John Russell, proud member of The Authors Guild.

 

I'm the author of the multi-award-winning and best-selling books:

 

Riding with Ghosts, Angels, and the Spirits of the Dead

 

A Knock in the Attic

 

20 Ways to Increase Your Psychic Abilities

 

and coming soon in 2024, TWO NEW BOOKS:  The Crying Tree and the Magic Rock and also The Can Sack Ghost.  Stay tuned!

 

 

I've been an internationally known professional psychic and medium for 50 years. As a paranormal investigator I've experienced over 1,000 physical supernatural manifestations.  I have provided psychic readings for clients in over 40 countries.  For over 18 years I've also been a featured guest on many popular radio shows and podcasts, including multiple appearances on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, and I filmed a TV pilot for The History Channel in which I psychically explored the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
