Bill Bean is a nationally known author and lecturer.
He is an experiencer, victim, survivor, and conqueror of evil. His faith in GOD has inspired many people around the country
and in different parts of the world. Bill says, "GOD truly delivered me from evil." William John Bean was born on July 29,
1966 in Baltimore, Maryland. His parents were William & Patricia Bean. Bill has a sister named Patti and a brother named
Bobby.
In 1970, the Bean family moved into a modest three
bedroom ranch style house located in Glen Burnie, Maryland. The community was called, "Harundale." Bill recalled his first
memories of the house were frightening ones. "It had a very foreboding and ominous feel from the start," he said. What the
family didn’t know is that a demonic force already occupied their new home. Bill Bean stated, "My family was literally
torn apart by an evil force that co-existed among us. The activity began as noises and gradually escalated into violent physical
attacks on us by the entities."
In his book Dark Force, Bill Bean painfully describes
in terrifying detail the events that tormented his family. As disturbing as some of the content in Dark Force is, there’s
a very powerful message of hope and faith that has affected many readers in a positive way.
Here’s an excerpt from a review about
Dark Force : "Every now and then a book comes along that you just can’t put down. Dark Force is among those books. I
have read many true life stories, but not since reading Jay Anson’s Amityville Horror has a story stayed in my mind.
Hour after hour and day after day." Tim Kelly.
Bill starred in a Discovery Channel broadcast about
his story. The show aired on September 7, 2006 on the series "A Haunting." The segment is called "House of the Dead," and
is one of the most watched segments. It’s often shown during Bill’s lectures, along with a jaw dropping photo
presentation. Bill has taken many bizarre photos of anomalous phenomena over the years.
Bill Bean travels around the country leaving audiences
both riveted and inspired. He’s also given hundreds interviews and is always in demand for lectures, conventions
and show appearances.
"I truly know the awesome power of GOD and the vulgar
power of satan," said Bill.
Bill Bean's segment on the Discovery Channel series, A Haunting , is titled House of the Dead. Produced by New Dominion Pictures, House of the Dead aired on September 7, 2006 and is still being shown. Many thanks to Anne Rothwell
and Justin Wolfe who made this segment possible. http://dsc.discovery.com/
The "HOUSE OF THE DEAD" episode is absolutely one of the best segments to surface from this show. I
was able to view this show for the first time about a month ago after having read the book by Mr. Bill Bean. I happened to
see his book Dark Force while purchasing another on amazon.com. Having listened to several nationally syndicated radio
talk shows,specifically CBS radio, I found Mr. Bean to be extremely credible, a true soldier of the Lord. If you have not
seen the episode "HOUSE OF THE DEAD" check the listings as it is a definate "must see'. During my research of Mr. Bean, I
have noted his website as follows: www.billbean.net

DARK FORCE Review by Mr. John de Sarem
It was my wife - a very discerning and selective reader, so "committed to the truth" that novels
are not on her list of "must- reads" - who having read the book by Bill Bean which has just been released said emphatically
to me " This is a must- read, I was unable to put it down." A few days later, to my own great surprise, as my own "reading-interests"
are even more restrictive than my wife’s , I found myself, as I began to glance through and then begin to seriously
read the book, even more engaged by the amazing story that was unfolding. It tells of the extraordinarily vivid, unfortunately
violent and unwelcome autobiographical experiences, of a young boy (Bill Bean) in a home in the vicinity of Baltimore in the
nineteen-seventies; and, most intriguingly, of his experiences of a realm that lies beyond the living. As we know, the eternal
human uncertainty is whether after the decease of our "physical selves", there lies "nothingness" or a continuity in some
form, in "after-lives", of some aspects of our selves. A subject since the very beginnings of recorded human history appears
to have preoccupied the human race, and lies , of course, at the heart of its great religions. And here is Bill Bean who tells
us of his experiences of such "after-life" in startingly first-hand vividly descriptive terms. Of course, the essential preconditions
for anyone who makes so bold as to tell us of an "after-life experience" and to be regarded with seriousness, are total honesty
and total truthfulness. Yet these are preconditions that Bill Bean, who I know to be one of those few, one of those very few,
individuals who cannot but speak the truth - obviously fulfils. And it is the telling of his experiences as a child and through
the eyes of a child comes a direct and simple and compelling clarity. To turn to other aspects, I found the manner and flow
of Bill Bean’s direct and seemingly simple and unentangled, almost at times Hemingwayesque, prose refreshing - inundated
as we are with so much of what passes for good writing these days. And amidst his busy schedule, I hope that Bill Bean will
find the time to continue his writings perhaps of semi-autobiographical short stories of the various stages of his life and
thus to make contribution to the record of the ups and downs of life of an American family in his time. As a final note, I
should add that I had noticed, on the few occasions I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Bean, that he is one of those blessed
with a remarkably clear, strong and mellow, and well-articulating, "speaking-voice"; and nd it seemed to me that if he could
be persuaded to give radio-listeners some " readings" from his book, I for one would find it very pleasantly absorbing at
the end of a day.
