Voggenhuber claims to have acquired his (alleged) knowledge of the "supernatural world" at Arthur Findlay College in Stansted Mountfitchet, England, and in Switzerland. In 2009, he founded the Spirit Messenger Center in Sissach, Switzerland to train other media. Pascal Voggenhuber is originally a trained actor.[4]
Every year Pascal Voggenhuber gives a large number of lectures, seminars and workshops, mainly in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. He also appears regularly in so-called afterlife demonstrations. Numerous people follow Voggenhuber's performances, in which he says he talks live to a deceased relative of a spectator. He translates messages from the afterlife for the bereaved. In 2014, a multi-part documentary about the work of Pascal Voggenhuber was broadcast on Sat.1 Switzerland. The programme Das Medium - Nachricht aus dem Jenseits[5] shows how he helps to cope better with grief in individual consultations. The programme also mentions that he uses his alleged abilities again and again to help the police in unsolved cases. The fact that this cooperation exists was also confirmed in the Johannes B. Kerner ShowonSat.1 in 2009.[6] In the TV crime thriller Tatort: Zwischen zwei Welten, which was produced in Switzerland, there is the character Pablo Guggisberg, who is a medium that helps the police in their investigations. This figure should be based on Pascal Voggenhuber.[7] In Germany, where the general public is unfamiliar with such cooperation, this crime scene episode was sometimes met with incomprehension.[8] In individual cases, schools invite Pascal Voggenhuber to talk to students about his work and these topics, for example in physics lessons.[9][10][11] Pascal Voggenhuber has written 14 books so far. Each of these 14 books was in the top 10 bestseller lists in Switzerland.[12][13]
