Motto < My interest in psychic matters has always been the interest in questions of extended or expanded consciousness. Ig a ghost is seen,what is it interests me less than what sees it ? Do we possess faculties which under exceptional stimulus, register beyond the normal gamaut of seeing, hearing, feeling ? That such faculties may exist in the human beeing and occasionally manifest is where my interest has always lain. Such exceptional stimulus may be pathogenic (as duplicated in the Salpetriere and other mental hospitals), or due to some dynamic flash of terror or beauty which strikes a Man in the Street, but that they occur is beyond the denials today of the petty sceptic. If this is more certain to me now than it was when I wrote these tales a generaton ago it means merely that I have since studied more of the increasingly voluminous evidence. Thus in most of these stories there is usually an average man who, either through a flash of terror or of beauty, becomes stimulated into extra-sensory experiance. A wide gap may lie between a commonplace mind that became clairvoyant and cllairaudient from a flash of terror in the Empty House, to the Man in the Street in the Centaur whose sense of beauty blazed into a realization of the planetary bodies as superhuman entities, but the principle is the same: both experianced an expansion of normal consciousness. And this, I submit, travels a little further than the manufacture of the homespun‘ghost stories'.> ――Algernon Blackwood from Preface of Insanity of Jones and other tales |
