Welcome!

This is the original Mandela Effect website. I’m Fiona Broome, and I launched this site in 2009, many years before the Mandela Effect became a popular (and sometimes controversial) concept.

The original Mandela Effect website.Over 10 years later, traffic overwhelmed this site, so most of the original content is now in books.  (They’re currently at Amazon, but will be at B&N, Kobo, etc., later in 2021.)

My articles – and this community’s discussions – ranged from mental cosplay to sci-fi/quantum physics, with plenty of lighthearted banter in the mix.

In the early days, this was great fun.

Today, the topic grows daily. It’s taken on a life of its own. It’s discussed at Reddit, YouTube, on TV and radio shows, and across the Internet.

Do I take all of these conversations seriously…? Of course not.

In fact, I rarely talk about this topic in real life. I don’t participate in any forums about it, either. 

Of course, I believe there are a wealth of unanswered questions about the Mandela Effect.

But I don’t think there’s a single, universal explanation.

I urge people to avoid the extremes of fearing they’re losing their minds, dismissing all of it as conflation, or thinking it’s a sinister conspiracy.
