Gustavo Borgia Y Aguirre, a descendant of the infamous Borgia family and the terrible Spanish Conquistador  Lope de Aguirre, is a Spanish born physicist whom in the mid 19th century assisted in the invention  the Foucault Pendulum, a device known for capturing the effects of the earth's rotation. He is also the inventor of the Resonant Transformer today known as the Tesla Coil. It is thought that the Foucault Pendulum and the Tesla Coil theorems were mischievously applied to marionettes in order to exercise profound telepathic control of any audience. This metaphysical extrapolation is responsible for the creation of the branch of mentalism influential for the work of figures such as Fu Manchu, Sigmund Freud and Harry Houdini.

Gustavo Borgia Y Aguirre is also related by "blood" to the Romanian  Vlad Tepes,  from whom he inherited a morbid passion for human critical studies. Often associated with the "Structuralist Movement" and "post modern deconstructivism," his works creating presentations and tour vignettes are of unparalleled proportions, and the subject of active research at the University of Avignon's Department of Extracorporeal Sciences.

The Mount Dora Ghost Walk, of which Gustavo Borgia Y Aguirre  is a founding creator, implicates vast references and theories from his past lineage into a multi-dimensional puppetry and touring experiences that intrigues and amazes, but can leave some participants in a partial state of delirium due to the astral projectionary and multi-sensorial over stimulation.
