Amelia Cotter is a writer, poet, and storyteller. She's written multiple books about the paranormal such as Where the Party Never Ended: Ghosts of the Old Baraboo Inn, This House: The True Story of a Girl and a Ghost, Maryland Ghosts: Paranormal Encounters in the Free State, and the children’s book Breakfast with Bigfoot. She also writes poetry about trauma and healing and is a contributor to The Feminine Macabre, which is how we met.
I initially asked Amelia on the show to talk about her writing and about ghosts, but this turned into a much deeper and broader conversation. We talked about the shifting landscape of the paranormal community, the importance of empathy and listening when speaking with experiencers, the dangers of conspiracy thinking, and why it's important to be careful of judging people based off of what we see on social media and on television. This was a wonderful conversation and I hope you enjoy it.
