A
PSYCHIC'S CASEBOOK
by
Dilys Gater
A
world best seller now in paperback
Dilys
Gater has spent over fifteen years as a psychic consultant. In this book she
reveals in engrossing detail the day-to-day aspects of work that brings her
into contact with lost spirits, star children, the dead, angels, demons, mystics,
the grieving, the searching and the suffering, with more than fifty case histories
from her personal files.
As a clairvoyant she can ‘see true’ into the past, present and
future. She has released trapped and wandering souls. As a medium she is able
to make contact with the dead; and as a healer she has brought comfort, peace
and consolation to the living. She picked up the details of an unsolved murder
by the power of psychometry; she has changed lives; been confronted by voodoo,
haunting and sitters who claimed to be possessed.
A powerful and compassionate account of experiences that can truly be described
as ‘out of this world’.

LIVING
WITH GHOSTS
An Investigation
by
Paul Gater
What is
it like to live in a haunted house or share your space with uneasy spirits?
This absorbing investigation of the subject covers hauntings of all kinds
world-wide, and includes interviews with psychics, dowsers and mediums as
well as with many 'ordinary' people who have encountered ghosts. Read about
haunted houses and places, travelling ghosts, phantom ships, planes, objects
and animals.
PAUL GATER decided to write this book after accompanying his wife on several occasions when she was called to deal with 'unquiet spirits'. He became so fascinated that as an observer, he felt an honest and unprejudiced investigation into the whole subject was long overdue.
‘Thoughtful and objective, this is not just another ‘ghost’ book. It gives the full picture from all points of view – including that of the ghosts! Read it whatever your relationship with the spirit world.’

SUMMER WITH BAX
A Fresh Take on Reality
by Dilys Gater with Paul Gater, Foreword by Ellen Kent, Photographs by Mark Borg
The life and work of the English composer Sir Arnold Bax comes under scrutiny in this fascinating new book, which has been received with genuine interest by the musical world.
Dilys Gater is the author of over 90 books. She is also a medium, who made contact with Bax in a series of trance 'conversations', the transcripts of which form the basis of SUMMER WITH BAX. Research on the composer's life and times carried out by her husband Paul, provides a concise and informative biographical commentary.
Who can capture the nature of musical inspiration, artistry or genius? Bax's thoughts on his work, on his approach to music and life, his comments on living and on dying, embody the same dynamic energy that infuses his art.
This is a unique journey through a summer of discussion and discovery set against the landscape Bax knew and loved. A joy-enhancing celebration of art and life.

A
SEASON WITH
VIVIEN LEIGH
The Life & Art of an Actress
By
Dilys Gater
‘ I
always knew that life was not really anything but a dream. A bad dream
for me, I think. But why? What was the purpose of it? And why was I the
person I was? Was it to teach me something or to teach other people something,
or for some other reason we don’t know at all?’
Actress Vivien Leigh, who died in 1967, was a brilliant, flawed, iconic star.
Remembered for her outstanding beauty and her Oscar-winning film roles as Scarlett
O’Hara in GONE WITH THE WIND and Blanche DuBois in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE,
her private life was shadowed by manic depressive illness and obsessive love
for her husband, Laurence Olivier.
Against
the background of Vivien Leigh’s life, loves and illness, this book
explores her roles as an actress, the nature of acting and her personal philosophies.
In a modern world it is becoming increasingly difficult to identify what is
real and what is illusion. Vivien Leigh’s story challenges readers to
explore all aspects of their lives and relationships, discarding masks and
stereotypes to discover a personal truth.What is inspiration? Where does the
artist’s genius come from? And what does he have to sacrifice in order
to remain true to his vision and his destiny?
Dilys Gater is a medium and author who works in theatre and the arts. Here
she gives a fascinating new perspective on a stage and screen icon –
the woman behind the image, the hidden facets of a complex and courageous
personality.Anecdotes Publishing

LIVING WITH WOMEN
A Survivor's Guide - On and Off the Stage
By Paul Gater
This witty and entertaining book brings together twenty-one short stories about relationships between men and women - which, as author Paul Gater comments, have 'always been the same throughout the centuries'.
Originally written as one-woman scripts for a solo actress, these glimpses into the lives and hearts of a variety of different women are rich and unexpectedly moving as well as providing light-hearted reading for any spare moment. Paul Gater is a shrewd, yet sympathetic observer of people and their predicaments - 'brilliant, yet subtle' commented The Times on his stage play Biddy & Perry.
With a Foreword by film and
theatre archivist Graham F. Humphreys and illustrated with over fifty original
postcards from his personal collection featuring stars from the early 20th
century, this is a real showpiece.
PULLING MY SELVES TOGETHER
Re-inventing reality & achieving
wholeness
By Dilys Gater
'It's not a thing you can do in easy
stages, this, nor by halves. It's all or nothing ….I cannot - I do
not want to - go back. I've got to go on. In the best way I can...'
How does one identify the line between creative vision, imaginative thought or madness? The artist - or indeed, any ordinary person trying to be true to him- or her- self - may undergo a great deal of difficulty and distress in finding a niche and coming to terms with the world.
Writer Dilys Gater had suffered all her adult life from mental illness that was never resolved, and at the age of 43, decided to try and 'heal' herself using the tools of her trade - curiosity, humour and a capacity for detached observation. This is the diary chronicling the difficult, painful but ultimately triumphant course of her recovery.
'a personal account
of one individual's unique experience but most people reading it will find
aspects and situations with which they identify... I was impressed with the
book'
Dr Marie Campkin GP
PAST LIVES
Case Histories
by Dilys Gater
Have we been here before? Does what happened in our past lives matter today?
Psychic and medium Dilys Gater recounts over fifty case histories exploring reincarnation and regression from her personal files. From the spontaneous memories of an 8-year-old who could recall his death in a blazing airship to the accounts of past lives as animals, alien life forms, trapped suicides, human sacrifices, great (though unsuspected) souls of genius to ordinary men and women in all ages and periods of history, every page is fascinating and compelling.
Originally published by Robert Hale, this comprehensive
exploration beyond the boundaries of life and death has become a classic in
its field. Now available in paperback for the first time.

THE WIZARD’S DAUGHTER
In the winter of 1593, Nimue, daughter of the Queen’s ‘other Welsh
wizard’ who is herself a ‘wise child’, leaves London for
the wilds of North Wales to find her destiny in the country of her birth.
She meets the wizard Merlin Pendragon, dark
lord of Pendragon tower and its secrets and discovers her own powers for good.
But amid the snows of Yule, against a background of superstition, witchcraft
and land-greed for the newly prospected Welsh gold, the two are parted by
violence, terror and fire…..

Wright. These novels have also been issued in Large Print editions and as
Talking Books.
Fiction
'She inspires by example… If you are trying to help yourself, every page is thought-provoking' - Jean G, ME sufferer
'An extremely moving work,
written with a candour rarely found'
Kevin Guy, Journal for the National Council of Psychotherapists
Does the danger come from the Irish Queen, the enigmatic woman
pirate Grainne O’Malley? Or from the dark, erotic power of the man known
as the Counsellor – the Holy Devil? Nimue ventures into the underworld
of the theatre with her father’s friend Will Shakespeare and dares to
tread the realms of cunning men, alchemists and dealers in magic; her visions
lead her through tempestuous storms at the great Cliffs of Moher in the west
of Ireland, to a final and terrifying confrontation with evil at the circle
of Stonehenge on the night of Beltane…
Fiction
Paul Gater’s fascinating new investigation into the phantom realms of battle and conflict is crammed with spooky tales of soldier ghosts from the Romans and the Vikings to red-coats and cavaliers, battles re-fought in the skies, ‘Tommies’ in the trenches of WWI and spectral airmen of WW2.
This comprehensive account of true –
though sometimes unbelievable – stories covers both the English and
American Civil Wars and both World Wars.
The author says: ‘Far more people than one imagines have seen phantom
survivors of battle – in the trauma of conflict, many soldiers of all
periods of history seem to have been ‘stuck’ in the terror and
stress of the moment, or doomed to re-enact the events of some horrific clash
of arms for ever’.
‘I have researched the dramatic stories
of some of them…’
