Harry Bottreil was my step-grandfather and a member of the South African Psychical Research Institute.  This is his recorded story of my grandmother, Iris and his adventures searching out and dealing successfully with poltergeists in the local townships.  This was a tape that was made in 1980 and sent to us in the States.
