Lengthy replies from me during a newsgroup exchange following an initial recommendation of D. Corydon Hammond’s Handbook of Hypnotic Metaphors:

Very entertaining guy this Corydon Hammond… and a superhero to boot, saving the world from the evil “Mr. Green”
“Alpha represents general programming. Beta appears to be sexual programmes such as how to perform oral sex in a certain way or how to produce and direct child pornography films or run child prostitution rings. Delta are killers. Delta-alters are trained how to kill in ceremonies and also do some self-harm stuff. Theta are psychic killers. This comes from their belief in psychic abilities, including their belief that they can make someone develop a brain tumour and die. Omega are self-destruct programmes that can make the patient self-mutilate or kill themselves. Gamma systems are protection and deception programmes which provide misinformation to try and misdirect you. There are also other Greek letter programs. Zeta has to do with the production of snuff films. Omicron has to do with their association with the Mafia, big business, and government leaders. You should go through the Greek alphabet [with your patients]… these programmes make a robot shell come down over the altar and make them perform acts in a robotic fashion.”
This is from Hammond’s address at the 4th Annual Regional Conference on Abuse and Multiple Personality Disorder.
Cited from “Making Monsters”. False Memories, Psychotherapy, and Sexual Hysteria” by Richard Ofshe and Ethan Watters.
Hammond’s own personal entries into his “Handbook” would be hysterical if they weren’t so tragic for his patients.

Sure. Check out pretty much any of the texts, including Hammond’s own work on Multiple Personality Disorder (increasingly referred to as “Dissociative Identity Disorder”), Ritual Satanic Abuse and Repressed Memory (“Massive Repression”).
Corydon Hammond’s “work” is an example of what happens when therapists go playing detective and fail to see what they are creating in their clients.
For a fuller picture, check out:
- “Making Monsters”. Richard Ofshe and Ethan Watters.
- “The Myth Of Repressed Memory”. Dr. Elizabeth Loftus.
- “Suggestions of Abuse”. Michael D. Yapko.
- “Victims of Memory”. Mark Pendergrast.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Andrew Austin.

Most hypnotists I meet rarely know the theology behind the concepts of “repressed memory”, the agenda of “massive repression”, “trauma”, and “dissociation”.
