Dr. Kolbaba discovered that the majority of physicians he interviewed were, in his words, 'spiritual beyond what I ever imagined' — and that many attributed specific patient outcomes to divine intervention.

London: Where History, Medicine, and the Supernatural Converge
London's supernatural history spans nearly two millennia. The city is built on layer upon layer of the dead—Roman burial grounds, plague pits, and medieval cemeteries lie beneath its streets. Jack the Ripper's Whitechapel victims are said to haunt the East End, and the ghostly Grey Lady of Hampton Court Palace has been captured on CCTV. The Tube system is famously haunted, with reports of ghost trains and phantom passengers on the Northern, Bakerloo, and Piccadilly lines. Borley Rectory in Essex, once called 'the most haunted house in England' by paranormal investigator Harry Price, generated decades of public fascination. The Society for Psychical Research, founded in London in 1882, was the world's first organization dedicated to the scientific study of paranormal phenomena and conducted rigorous investigations that laid the groundwork for modern parapsychology.
London has been a center of medical advancement for nearly a millennium. St. Bartholomew's Hospital, founded in 1123, is the oldest hospital in England still on its original site. The city is where Edward Jenner demonstrated his smallpox vaccine in 1796, Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin at St. Mary's Hospital in 1928, and Florence Nightingale established modern nursing at St. Thomas' Hospital in 1860. The Royal College of Surgeons, founded in 1800, and the Royal College of Physicians, founded in 1518, continue to set standards for medical practice worldwide. London's medical schools have produced dozens of Nobel laureates and have been at the forefront of public health since John Snow traced a cholera outbreak to a Broad Street water pump in 1854.
