Rosemary Ellen Guiley is an American writer on topics related to spirituality, the occult, and the paranormal.[1] She is also a radio show host,[2] a certified hypnotist, a board director of the "National Museum of Mysteries and Research" and the "Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial Encounters", and a "Lifetime Achievement Award" winner from the Upper Peninsula Paranormal Research Society, Michigan.[3] She has written more than 49 books, including ten encyclopedias.

Works

Her works include Atlas of the Mysterious in North America (1995) – a listing of places in Canada and the US associated with mysterious occurrences;[4] The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft;[4] Harper's Encyclopedia of Mystical & Paranormal Experience – a reference book on topics related to spirituality, mythology and New Age;[5] and The Encyclopedia of Angels.[6]

In 2011, Guiley published Talking to the Dead via Tor Books, co-authored with George Noory. She is currently working with Darren Evans on the book The Zozo Phenomenon which will be published by Visionary Living, Inc.[7]

Activities

Guiley is a consulting editor of Fate magazine and a regular guest on Coast to Coast AM. She has made television appearances on various networks, including A&E, The History Channel and The Discovery Channel.[8] Her work has been translated into 14 languages.[9] She takes part in conventions and events like the International U.F.O Congress and Conference,[10] Vail Symposium,[11] and Michigan Paranormal Convention.[12]

Response

Christian evangelist John Ankerberg criticized Guiley's understanding of intuition (as she described it in Harper's Encyclopedia of Mystical and Paranormal Experience – "intuition invariably proves to be right"), saying that with beliefs like those, rational thinking and spiritual discernment are often discarded.[13] He also interprets from her book Angels of Mercy that she and other New Age writers of angel literature are unwittingly relating to fallen angels/demons.[14] In Angels of Mercy Ankerberg criticizes Guiley's assertion that "angels" should be trusted unconditionally without the fear-based belief that they might be demons, saying that it is irrational and that he believes demons are indeed impersonating angels.[15]
