Allen Spraggett (born 1932) is a Canadian writer and broadcaster, known for his works concerning the paranormal. During the 1950s, Spraggett was originally a minister of the Open Door Evangelical Church. He transferred to the United Church of Canada to briefly become a minister there, before working as the religion editor of ''Toronto Star''. In the 1970s, he wrote ''The Unexplained'', a syndicated newspaper column concerning the paranormal. Spraggett was host of the CBC television quiz show ''Beyond Reason'' from 1977 to 1980. He also hosted the radio shows ''Sun Spots'' and ''The Unexplained'' on CFRB in Toronto.〔 In 1979, he was charged with two counts of gross indecency, based on allegations by youths from Winnipeg. Spraggett was acquitted of these charges in April 1980. However, he had difficulty in resuming his broadcasting and writing career after that trial.〔 Article originated from the ''Toronto Star''.〕 ==Bibliography== * ''The Unexplained'' (1967) * ''The Bishop Pike Story'' (1970) * ''Kathryn Kuhlman : The Woman who Believes in Miracles'' (1970) * ''Probing the Unexplained'' (1971) * ''Arthur Ford, The Man who Talked with the Dead'' (1973) * ''The Case for Immortality'' (1974) * ''The World of the Unexplained'' (1974) * ''The Spiritual Frontier'' (1975, co-writer with William Rauscher) ISBN 0385071892 * ''The Psychic Mafia'' (1976, co-writer with M.
