“My illness eradicated my sense of self,” one individual with schizophrenia described, “and now I am engaged in the lifelong process of obtaining, maintaining, and slowly modifying my sense of who I am” (Anonymous, 1994). We argue that this lifelong challenge can be captured through narrative identity, a rich, well-established theoretical and empirical approach to studying the narrative self in personality and developmental psychology. In this paper, we systematically review the literature on narrative identity in psychosis, describe the fully formed narrative identity deficits observed in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, propose a developmental model for how these deficits may emerge in adolescence and early adulthood, and suggest specific hypotheses and future directions for research in this area.

Haunted People Syndrome (HP-S) denotes individuals who recurrently report various “supernatural” encounters in everyday settings ostensibly due to heightened somatic-sensory sensitivities to dis-ease states (e.g., marked but sub-clinical levels of distress), which are contextualized by paranormal beliefs and reinforced by perceptual contagion effects. This view helps to explain why these anomalous experiences often appear to be idioms of stress or trauma. We tested the validity and practical utility of the HP-S concept in an empirical study of an active and reportedly intense ghostly episode that was a clinical referral. The case centered on the life story of the primary percipient, a retired female healthcare worker. Secondary percipients included her husband and adult daughter, all of whom reported an array of benign and threatening anomalies (psychological and physical in nature) across five successive residences. Guided by prior research, we administered the family online measures of transliminality, sensory-processing sensitivity, paranormal belief, locus of control, desirability for control, and a standardized checklist of haunt-type phenomena. The primary percipient also completed a measure of adverse childhood events and supplied an event diary of her anomalous experiences.
