Just picked up a great sourcebook for mentalists, bizarrists and other occult-type performers -- and I found it on the remainder rack at Borders.
It's called THE SPIRIT BOOK by Raymond Buckland. This purports to be an "encyclopedia of clairvoyance, channeling, and spirit communication". It is written with a slant towards believers; in other words, the phenomenon and people therein are discussed as if they are possibly or likely "the real thing", with no attempt made to discredit them. And I think this is what makes it a great sourcebook for us, because if we are attempting to evoke simulations of this stuff we should be well-versed in it. Just paging through the book now, I come across ideas I hadn't known that fuel my imagination, such as the concept of ley lines, and stories about the eighteenth-century Tremblers of Germany.
