Interview idea’s
To ask questions on each individual conspiracy theory.
1. Elisa Lam- In the case of Elisa Lam, do you think she
was suffering from Psychosis or was she possessed?
or do you think the footage in the elevator in the
case of Elisa Lam could have been manipulated?
2. The bizarre spontaneous combustion of Mary Reeser,

Do you believe some people could be shape shifting
lizard people, and why?

The images used in this article, do you think they’re or
could they have been manipulated?I hope to ask my questions in a
conversational interview is an approach
used by research interviewers to generate
verbal data talking about specified topics
with research participants in an informal and
conversational way.
I also wish to use a structures interview is
typically formal and organized an may
include several interviewers, commonly
referred to as panel interview.
I also wish to include images to show to my
participants perhaps to encourage the
audience to have a more developed answer
and therefore giving me more in detail
answers.
For example, within the footage of Elisa Lam
in the lift I could ask, ‘What is your opinion
of her actions, is she suffering with
psychosis or is she communicating with
anything paranormal? ‘
I also will use the archived images of
Mary Reeser, of the burnt body with the
left over foot, ‘What is your opinion on
what happened to Mary R, how do you
think this could have happened?

6. Copy:
All the other written elements of your fanzine are up to you but should be documented here. If you decide to write a
review, a polemic, an article or anything else, it needs to be documented here.
Drafts are good so it is worth writing a first draft then producing a second which not only checks for spelling and grammar
errors but also ensures that your work has a consistent style, quality and structure.
Recording your research, as and when it happens, is also a very strong idea. If you need to look up a fact or read an article,
record that.
7. The Spontaneous Combustion of Mary Reeser?
.On the 2nd of July 1951 Mary Reeser was found by her
landlord (Pansy Carpenter) after attempting to deliver a
telegram.
. When Pansy arrived she put her hand on the doorknob
and found it to be usually hot, soon after she called the
police out of concern for her tenant.
.The Police arrived at the apartment, to find the 67 year old
Mary Reeser burned to death in a mysterious fire.
.Not much of Mary Reeser remained. There was one
slippered foot, which curiously showed no signs of charring,
strangely only her spine, and her skull remained and was
described as shrunken.
.The apartment was described as so hot the fire service
struggled to work, however the majority of the apartment
remained intact, the seat in which Reeser was sitting in had
softened and lost its shape. But the rest of the room was
seemingly unaffected by the flames that engulfed Mary
Reeser.
.Since it requires three or four hours of temperatures
around 3,000degrees Fahrenheit for a body to be cremated,
the case baffled authorities.
Conspiracy for The Spontaneous Combustion of Mary Reeser.
.Due to the mysterious circumstances of the case, its been suspected
that Reeser was a victim of ‘spontaneous human combustion’ This is
when a person bursts in to flames from a chemical reaction in their
body, without any apparent ignition of an external heat source.
.The chief of police who was investigating this mysterious fire, chief
Cass Burgess and his team sent materials from Mary Reeser’s
apartment, to an FBI lab in Washington DC for investigation and
analysis, these consisted of a rug, rubble and sections from the chair in
which Mary Reeser was sat.
.The FBI determined that Mary Reeser’s death was not the result of
spontaneous human combustion, but that Mary Reeser’s own body fat
provided the fuel for the fire that consumed her after possibly lighting
a cigarette and falling asleep. While the FBI’s explanation had a certain
logic it still left unanswered questions.
.While another theory was “Dr Wilton M. Krogman, a professor of
physical anthropology at the university of Pennsylvania and an
experienced fire researcher strongly disagreed with the initial
conclusion he stated “I cannot conceive of such complete cremation
without more burning of the apartment”
.This case still remains unsolved.
8. Elisa lam and The Water Tank.
.When 21 year old Elisa Lam was found dead in a water tank of
the infamous Cecil Hotel in Los Angles 2013.
.Her body was found after hotel guests and staff members
complained about low water pressure and a strange taste,
which led employees to investigate the two large tanks at the
roof of the hotel.
.Lam’s body was found, naked, her belongings such as clothes,
keys, and watch were in the water next to her. Strangely her
phone was never found.
.The coroner listed her death as a drowning.
.After the police had followed leads the LA Police Department
released a security footage from inside the hotel lift.
.This video showed very strange behavior from Elisa Lam.
.Lam Pushes the buttons for several floors at once, then
appears to hesitant poke her head into the hallway and look
around as if she was talking to somebody, whereas nobody
was there.
She made many strange gestures. The whole video was very
bizarre.
.
Conspiracies theories for Elisa Lam and The Water
Tank.
.Some viewers and guest suspect her strange behavior could be
explained by the possible use of psychedelic drug use.
.While other viewers came to the conclusion that her bizarre
death has been linked to the Korean elevator game, a ritual of
pressing buttons of an elevator in a certain order to reach a
different dimension
. As it turns out, the timeframe during which Elisa Lam was
staying at the Cecil coincided with a severe tuberculin breakout
Skid Row and in most of the downtown area surrounding the
hotel. The strange part is the TB test being used in the area was
the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay, called the LAM-ELISA
for short. Also, Isoniazid is the most commonly used antibiotic for
TB patients and its side effects include confusion and abnormal
behaviour. Lam's toxicology screening didn’t find anything strange
in her system, but many conspiracy theories think the drug test
results were forged or altered in some way because of all the
delays in the report's release.
.Another theory for the bizarre death of Elisa Lam, is that of, Long
before Elisa Lam walked the halls of the Cecil, there were tragic
deaths and talk of ghosts associated with the property. Since its
grand opening in the 1920s, there have been numerous suicides,
murders, and bizarre accidental deaths. Like in 1962, when
Pauline Otton jumped from the ninth floor and landed on a
pedestrian walking on the street below, killing them both
instantly. Some even claim the Cecil Hotel was the last place the
Black Dahlia was seen alive
