Mike has penned over twenty columns during his writing career, covering a wide range of issues, including crime prevention, social conditions, health and - of course - the paranormal.
His first column, Mike Hallowell on Health, appeared in Tynesider magazine, the editor of which was the distinguished shipping correspondent Richard Capstick. Mike ended up writing no less than three columns for Tynesider during the magazine’s life.
During Mike’s time in the police service he penned three long-running columns on crime prevention, two in The Shields Gazette and one, On the South Tyneside Beat, for Northumbria Police’s own crime prevention newspaper.
In 1998, Mike began to write his WraithScape column for The Shields Gazette, although initially it was called Bizarre. The column was a weekly dip into the world of supernatural phenomena, and is still going strong. It is, in fact, the longest-running newspaper column of its kind in the UK.
In 2004 Mike was recruited to write for a new magazine, Vision, and contributed to every edition from its launch. In the same year he received the editor’s personal Vision Award for his services.
Mike also penned the Backlight and Spotlight columns for UFO Matrix magazine until recently and currently writes Mike Hallowell’s Inexplicable Tales for Phantom Encounters.
“The column is the ultimate form of expression for the writer. Columns live, breathe and evolve. Nurtured in the correct way they can take on a life of their own.
“The successful column should be a microcosm; a place to which both writer and reader can escape from the ordinary world. The worst column is that which creates a vacation of the mind - the best that which provides a vacation for the mind”.
