Paranthropologist Dr. Jack Hunter returns to the show to discuss his new book “Engaging the Anomalous” which pushes toward the development of a non-reductive, participatory and experiential anthropology of the paranormal.
We also take a look at the strange story of a woman who was raised from the dead by soup before jumping into the Plus+ extension where we uncover the consequences of your stealth suit malfunctioning in the bedroom.
Roll up, roll up! Come learn of the wonders of the Traveling Museum of the Paranormal & Occult! On this episode we chat with Greg and Dana Newkirk about the menagerie of haunted and cursed object they posses in their travelling museum. Hear stories of the Idol of Nightmares and discover why it’s not good to encounter the Crone of the Catskills.
In our Plus+ extension we keep the theme of haunted objects going as we take a look at Japanese Voodoo doll rituals and discuss the story of a woman who claims she was strangled by her possessed Cabbage Patch Doll.
What inhabits the non physical world around us? Could paranormal phenomena be invisible to us and only show itself when it wants to? There are stories out there of people who claim to encounter invisible entities regularly; Bigfoots, Greys and even humanoids utilise this gap in our senses to interact with us. We chat about some of these encounters and explore the concept of Tulpa splintering.
Then in our Plus+ extension we look at the “Kirlian Gun” and its use in energy field healing and spirit removal.
Hallucinations can be terrifying and can cover a wide spectrum of paranormal like phenomena; but simply because they are happening the mind may not make them any less real. We discuss the controversial theories of a group of researchers who think there is a strong connection between mind bending electromagnetic influences and paranormal experiences. We also describe how EM energy might facilitate the contagious transfer of poltergeist experiences.
For our Plus+ members we hear stories of the herd like movements of the stars, Burmese astrological cross dressing and spirit negative energy composting.
