Biography:

William J. Hall was born and raised in Bridgeport, CT and had seen the Lindley street haunting on TV when he was 10 years old. It was a story that became the talk of the city and the country for years to come. Bill is a magician experienced in researching the unexplained; from folklore and urban legend, to fortune telling, the pyramids, and other mysterious tales. His syndicated 1990’s column 'Magic and the Unknown' ran for six years in multiple local papers in his home state.

As a magician and a past member of the Society of American Magicians Psychic Investigation Committee, Bill knows the questions to ask and the subtle differences to look for when examining what a witness sees versus how what they see is expressed and perceived. Bill has vast experience in how one could haunt their house, as well as experience in how a false psychic could wow even the most sophisticated of spectators. The true haunting of Lindley St., in Bridgeport, CT., was one ghost story that stuck in his mind. After peeling back the layers and obtaining more evidence than ever before, there finally is adequate information to find out what really happened at Lindley St.
