Paranormalism

The study of or belief in phenomena that appear to violate the laws of nature as currently understood—telepathy, psychokinesis, ghosts, precognition, and related experiences. Paranormalism doesn't necessarily posit a separate supernatural realm; it suggests that nature may be stranger than our current models allow, and that phenomena currently labeled "paranormal" may eventually be incorporated into an expanded science. It's the position that the boundaries of the natural are not yet fixed, and that experiences dismissed as impossible deserve investigation rather than dismissal.

"I had a dream about my grandmother the night she died, exactly as it happened. Science says that's coincidence. Paranormalism says: maybe science doesn't know everything yet. Maybe there are phenomena we haven't explained, not because they're fake, but because our models are incomplete. Keep investigating, don't just dismiss."

A paranormalist is a person who has studied the the occult sciences, all things psychic or paranormal. The paranormalist will often conduct experiments and tests in psychometry, telekinesis, mind reading, sightless vision, mind control. An example would be Dick Brooks director of the Houdini Museum and lead performer in America's longest running seance event that was picked by the Pennsylvania Department of Tourism as one of the most haunted places in the state.

A paranormalist is an expert in the paranormal.

paranormalia 

Blending words of Paranormal and anomalies(or anomalya or anomalia is a Castilian Spanish loanword). It means anomalies while such extra-ordianry activity happens like UFO's, ghost, possessions and other paranormal activity with hesitation to be believe due to someone's doing a hoax behind all of this.

Wow, that's a UFO! I've never seen a red one and it has shape of a grill.

Person 1: Whoa, is that just a silhouette or someone is making a joke?
Person 2: Someone is doing a paranormalia thing, then.

Hard Problem of Paranormality

Similar to supernaturality, but focused on the persistent, anecdotal reports of phenomena (ESP, psychokinesis, hauntings) that defy conventional explanation but consistently fail to manifest reliably under controlled conditions. The "hard problem" is the elusiveness: the phenomena appear tied to subjective states, belief, or ambiguous settings, evaporating under the harsh, skeptical light of a lab. This makes it impossible to determine if we're studying fragile real effects or the psychology of perception and error.

*Example: "The psychic was 80% accurate in cozy readings, but scored exactly chance in the double-blind lab test. The hard problem of paranormality: does the lab's sterile skepticism somehow 'turn off' the ability, or does the cozy setting simply create an illusion of accuracy through cold reading and confirmation bias? The effect is married to the ambiguity."*
