I wanted to add something to Chris's post. I spoke to a few friends I've made in the paranormal community and have been told that the name "Singapore Theory" supposedly originated from a paranormal group or parapsychologist in Singapore that discovered the theory, thus the name "Singapore Theory". I think the truth is: It may simply be something "made-up". I  think Barry Fitzgerald gave it that name... because we have never heard of the theory by that name. although I personally know the method very well. Usually it's just called the "Familiarization Method", because it is indeed based on the theory of familiarization, which is basically the process of making something (in this case the environment) familiar to someone (in a paranormal sense, ghosts).

There are different names for same methods used in paranormal investigations, and the "Singapore Theory" could very well be one of those. Like I said, I don't know how much truth lies in what I was told about the origin of the name. Seems that there would be at least some connection between the theory and the country. Maybe its purely coincidental. Who knows?

We'll delve more into this and find more answers for you guys.
