Why we need science to investigate the unexplained
In short: Investigative journalist Carrie Poppy shares a personal encounter with the unsettling and explores why a scientific framework is essential for understanding paranormal activity.
Poppy argues that moving beyond mere folklore requires a rigorous, evidence-based approach to investigate 'spooky' phenomena. Rather than dismissing these experiences as mere superstition, she suggests that science provides the necessary tools to decode the mechanisms behind them.
The talk serves as a call to action for intellectual curiosity, framing the paranormal not as a retreat from reality, but as a frontier for scientific inquiry.
