I think there is value in not being mainstream. I find it comforting to be able to do something that so many people think is either a hoax or an instance of the person fooling himself that it actually is happening. I like to know that I have first-hand evidence that there is more to our world than the narrow mainstream accepted "reality."
And I enjoy seeing ghosts, and communicating through spirit boards, and seeing auras. I find it interesting. I pick up energy from locations and physical objects. Someday I'll understand all my energy-perceptual abilities... but, for now, I do know that there is energy everywhere, and that most people probably pick it up just as I do, but unlike me they don't really let it be a conscious thing. Thus they can deny that it is happening, and to them this is an honest belief.
Spiritualist Church. They talk to the dead, eh? Wonder how they manage to stay Protestant, then, as there is a passage in the Bible about "don't interact with 'familiar spirits,' I recall.
