Our first story involves identical twins whose reputations were shredded when an uninformed prof could not conceive of them scoring very similarly on exams. So they became lawyers and took their case to court. Nancy Segal, a psychologist who founded the Twin Studies Center at California State University, Fullerton, told the jury about the “very close intertwining” of twins, that they are likely to have similar tastes, talents, social preferences, and academic achievements. Nothing spooky here. Next, when the newest remake of Disney’s Haunted Mansion movie was being filmed, Actors Were Given Crystal Balls to Prepare for Paranormal Roles – Did They Help? Well, as it turns out, these orbs have a long history of setting an anticipatory mood in specific situations. It may have been a stroke of genius for the director to unsettle his actors in an attempt to bring an air of authenticity to their scenes. (CM)
