“I predict that these afflicted young people will, within 3 months, be completely healed, and it will be accomplished without massive doses of antibiotics, intense psychotherapy, shock therapy, or other extreme measures.  The key that will cause the healing is a priceless factor…..”

The Amazing Kreskin 

PS:  I wanted to share this with you folks….one of the most remarkable moments I’ve seen on the stage in a long time is the moment when the hypnotist places his first subject dramatically in a trance.  What follows is a moment I could imagine being in a fine, silent movie, and that is the hypnotized subject standing there immobilized without a single motion or quiver, for what seems like an eternity.  I thought that was brilliant stage craft and very fine acting.

 The reason I wrote the foreword to two books, Ghosts in the Valley and More Ghosts in the Valley,  is because the author and the copy within the books absolutely enchanted me.  Adi-Kent Thomas Jeffrey was a renowned ghost-chaser who during her lifetime investigated chilling incidents, including incidents of spooks, spirits, and haunted houses, many of which took place in Pennsylvania, my favorite state.  My father’s side of the family lived in the Lehigh Valley area, specifically Bethlehem and Allentown.  Adi-Kent’s daughter, Lynda Elizabeth Jeffrey, recounted experiences and incidents that took place in the area and surrounding districts where my family lived.

Whether we believe in ghosts or not really doesn’t matter, for there’s no question that mysterious and at times chilling events have taken place in various lives.  What an appropriate time for the release, revising, and editing of Jeffrey’s original writings.  Today we have tremendous interest in other worlds, as we can see in the successful haunted house movies and the fascination with vampires.  And listen to this….the author was of Hungarian descent and carried her fascination with ghostly lore from an ancestral valley at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains in Hungary and carried it all the way to the Delaware Valley area of Pennsylvania.  If you have ever sat around a campfire and told ghost stories, you’ve got to read both of these books.

Kreskin entering ABC Television on the Red Carpet for Regis’ farewell appearance.

 When you hear today that some young people feel they can get credit in life by marching on Wall Street and then sustaining a period in which there are unhealthy conditions and sometimes illegal activities, what a contrast to find here a young man who reflects an inspiring spirit of patriotism.  When I was going to school, one of my close friends decided to join the Peace Corp.  Maybe he didn’t get paid for it, but he was paid in the long run with an experience you could not count in money.  And the same holds true of John McDonald.  If I saw an array of credentials from different applicants for a job, I can tell you right now  John McDonald’s inspiring and unselfish activity would stand far and above.

There is an irony in this picture. Kreskin appears here with the legendary Regis Philbin, and also present is Jerry Seinfeld who is scheduled to fill in as a temporary replacement following Philbin’s retirement.
