Rosenheim poltergeist investigation

Record summary

The Rosenheim case concerned disturbances reported in a Bavarian law office, including alleged telephone irregularities, light failures, and moving or damaged objects. Physicist John B. Hasted and parapsychologist Hans Bender became associated with investigations, while utility and technical records were invoked in later discussions. The case matters for comparing claims that appear partly instrumentally documented with claims based on witness testimony. Its evidential status is disputed: critics have questioned controls, documentation, and possible human or technical causes, while parapsychological accounts treat it as an important poltergeist study.
