About Ashley Knibb

Anomalist – Researcher – Author

For more than 25 years, I have explored anomalous experiences, psychical phenomena, hauntings and the many ways people encounter the unexplained.

My interest reaches beyond the question of whether something is simply “paranormal.” I am equally interested in the people, places, histories and circumstances surrounding unusual experiences and in what these accounts may reveal about perception, memory, belief and consciousness.


My approach

Listen carefully

Take people’s accounts seriously and understand the circumstances surrounding their experiences.

Examine the evidence

Consider testimony, historical records, environmental conditions and conventional explanations.

Question assumptions

Remain open to different perspectives and acknowledge what the evidence cannot establish.


My journey

Over more than 25 years, my interests have taken me from field investigations to historical research, experiments and conventions with fellow researchers.

The Royal Oak investigations became a decade-long enquiry and the subject of my writing. Along the way, my thinking has continued to develop and the questions keep coming.

“Curiosity, openness and critical thinking.”
