1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,640
I've been around for a while.

2
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,480
Met some interesting people.

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,840
Done some crazy things.

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:17,880
See, you just might think that there's not much that can take me by surprise.

5
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,720
You'd be wrong.

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:27,720
The world is full of stories,

7
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,720
science and things that amaze and confound me.

8
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,720
Every single day, incredible mystery is that keep me awake at night.

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,720
Some I can answer.

10
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,720
Ah, there's just... stuffy logic.

11
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,720
Do ghosts exist?

12
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,720
Should we fear the paranormal?

13
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,720
In California, a woman is terrorized by an invisible attacker.

14
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,720
Is she the victim of a genuine haunting?

15
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,720
Forget the silly movies that are out there. This is real.

16
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:07,720
In New England, the mother undergoes a violent transformation.

17
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,720
Has she been possessed by a demon?

18
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:15,720
It'll make a cold chill go up your spine.

19
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,720
And a British teenager claims to see ghosts.

20
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,720
Does she have the gift?

21
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,720
Not the fear. It was uncontrollable.

22
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,720
Yeah, it's a weird world.

23
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,720
And I love it.

24
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,720
Have you ever seen a ghost

25
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,720
where 90 million North Americans claim to have done just that,

26
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:01,720
and 40 million others say they have physically experienced a paranormal event?

27
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,720
Many of these events are easily explained,

28
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,720
but some are not only weird and inexplicable, most disturbing of all,

29
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,720
they seem to be evidence of pure evil.

30
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,720
Do ghosts exist?

31
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:18,720
And what are they anyway?

32
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,720
Is the paranormal something we should fear?

33
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:26,720
Or is it simply...

34
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,720
hogwash?

35
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,720
August 8th, 1989.

36
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,720
Barry Tafe, one of the world's leading paranormal investigators,

37
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,720
responds to the call of a distressed woman in San Pedro, California.

38
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:48,720
He brings along a colleague, photographer Jeff Weigrant.

39
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,720
After 5,000 cases, you go out expecting nothing to happen.

40
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,720
And most of the time, that's exactly what does occur. Nothing.

41
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,720
The terrified woman is Jackie Hernandez,

42
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,720
a single mother who claims that someone or something

43
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,720
has turned her home into a living hell.

44
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:12,720
She reported apparitions of an old man, strange lights.

45
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,720
Some of you try to smother her a couple of times.

46
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,720
Things were flying at her. It was extraordinary.

47
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,720
But perhaps most chilling on several occasions,

48
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,720
Jackie claims to have seen a corpse in her son's bed.

49
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,720
Injury? The ghost hunters decide to look around.

50
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,720
I have this attitude where I'm very skeptical,

51
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,720
because you know that a lot of people embellish and exaggerate

52
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,720
and misrepresent what's going on.

53
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,720
But in Jackie's house, they find something unexpected

54
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,720
and very weird.

55
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,720
We were taking pictures all over the house,

56
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,720
and we saw the strange liquid, I don't know what,

57
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:57,720
viscous liquid dripping out of a wall.

58
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,720
Unable to explain the weird slide,

59
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,720
Taff is now convinced Jackie is not faking anything

60
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,720
and real paranormal activity is occurring in her home.

61
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,720
They take samples and promised return,

62
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,720
but just three days later, another call.

63
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,720
This time, it's an emergency.

64
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,720
Whatever is in Jackie's house is on a rampage.

65
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,720
The physical attacks have become so violent and severe,

66
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,720
she fears for her life.

67
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,720
I was unavailable because my father had a heart attack,

68
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,720
so they were there without me.

69
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,720
Jackie reports the evil entity is now in her attic.

70
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,720
It has been tormenting her with strange lights

71
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,720
and ear-shattering banging.

72
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,720
Jeff and Gary decide to investigate.

73
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,720
Nothing could prepare them for what they find.

74
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,720
They hear, oh, like a yell or moan, and Gary turned back.

75
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,720
This is what happened to Jeff,

76
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,720
and he couldn't see, it was too dark in the attic.

77
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,720
Despite his terror, Gary snaps some photos in the darkness.

78
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,720
What they reveal will haunt them forever.

79
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,720
You can see that Jeff, a six-foot-two man, about 215 pounds,

80
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,720
something has wrapped itself around his neck,

81
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,720
and it's pulling him up against the rafter.

82
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,720
And yet, there was no one there.

83
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,720
It was Jeff and Gary.

84
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,720
And he'd cut him down, hit a rope, burn it in his neck,

85
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,720
and would have killed him.

86
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,720
The question is, there was no one else there,

87
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,720
so what tried to kill him, how and why?

88
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,720
Something had tried to murder Jeff Wheatcraft.

89
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,720
The investigators leave the house

90
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:53,720
only to make another chilling discovery.

91
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,720
The forensic lab report on the ooze from Jackie's wounds

92
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,720
is in.

93
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,720
The conclusion was, it was human blood clasping.

94
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,720
That's something you will lose sleep over, literally.

95
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,720
Jackie's story became known as the San Pedro Haunting,

96
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:15,720
one of the most mysterious paranormal events in history.

97
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,720
But what really happened?

98
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,720
Javier Ortega is a paranormal researcher.

99
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,720
He has no doubt.

100
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,720
The Jacky Ortega case is a very extreme case of a haunting.

101
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,720
It's usually the spirit of a deceased person,

102
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,720
the homeowner that passed away in that house,

103
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,720
and they were so attached to a physical object or location

104
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,720
that they come back.

105
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,720
During the investigation of the Jacky Ortega case,

106
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,720
she reported that her and some friends were playing with the Ouija board,

107
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,720
and they were able to talk with the spirit in the house.

108
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,720
And the spirit had told them that he was a marine that was murdered.

109
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,720
So they went out and they did some research,

110
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,720
and they found out that there was a marine named Herman Hendrickson

111
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,720
who was found dead in 1930.

112
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,720
A lot of the things that were reported were apparitions,

113
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,720
you know, whether it was a disembodied head floating in the attic

114
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,720
or a corpse-like old man sitting in her child's bed.

115
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:16,720
She also reported seeing strange lights that were described as globs of luminous light.

116
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,720
Free-floating globs of light having reported in haunted places as well.

117
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,720
But for Ortega, the most compelling evidence of a haunting

118
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:29,720
is that mysterious goo Barry and Jeff found oozing from Jacky's walls.

119
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,720
I mean, it just sounds so bizarre, you know, that you have human blood plasma oozing from the walls.

120
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:40,720
And when they checked, there wasn't any device that, you know, that was emitting this substance.

121
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:46,720
Was the marine so angry about being murdered that he bled through Jacky's walls?

122
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:52,720
Incredibly, Ortega thinks Jacky wasn't the only victim.

123
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,720
When Jacky Hernandez left the premise, people who inhabited that home

124
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,720
had also reported strange activities.

125
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,720
They reported objects being moved around, pots and pans being moved around,

126
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,720
and they reported being touched.

127
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,720
What an incredible story.

128
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,720
You know, I mean, strange things happen around my house too,

129
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,720
but once I say I'm sorry, everything's forgiven.

130
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:20,720
But human blood dripping from walls and the spirit that is so angry it tries to kill you,

131
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:26,720
I mean, who are they gonna call? Ghostbusters?

132
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,720
I've always wanted to say that.

133
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,720
A terrified woman reports extreme paranormal events in her home.

134
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,720
Weird lights, strange noises, even physical attacks.

135
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,720
Did Jacky Hernandez live in a haunted house?

136
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,720
It does not appear that the house would fit the classic haunting.

137
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,720
Lloyd Auerbach is a paranormal investigator.

138
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,720
He believes the answer isn't ghosts at all.

139
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,720
Knowing what I'm about to know about the Jacky Hernandez case,

140
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,720
it seemed that she herself was a poltergeist agent.

141
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,720
Poltergeists? Isn't that just a hyperactive ghost?

142
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,720
Or is there a difference?

143
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,720
What we learned in the last hundred years is that these things relate typically

144
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,720
not to ghost sightings, not to hauntings per se,

145
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,720
not to a place being haunted, but to a person, an individual in this situation

146
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,720
who is typically stressed or otherwise put upon.

147
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,720
There's possibly epileptic, we're having epileptic type activity.

148
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,720
It's about a third perhaps of the cases.

149
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,720
And the expression instead of by an entity is by the entity in the body.

150
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,720
It's by a person's unconscious blowing off steam or having a seizure essentially.

151
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,720
It's kind of like a seizure in some of these people as well.

152
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,720
But it's not a ghost related situation.

153
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,720
Many now believe poltergeists are not ghosts,

154
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,720
but a manifestation of something called psychokinesis.

155
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,720
We call it PK for short.

156
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,720
And it's the idea that the mind can directly interact or affect matter and energy.

157
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,720
We typically think of it in the paranormal world as affecting things outside your body,

158
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,720
whether it be moving objects, what people often call psychokinesis,

159
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,720
or bending metal, or even healing.

160
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,720
Was Jacky Hernandez herself causing the weird phenomenon in her own house?

161
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,720
If so, why?

162
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,720
And for that matter, how?

163
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,720
Certain people, their unconscious minds, let loose.

164
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,720
We see people who are stressed out, who are put upon in society,

165
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,720
really expressing that stress in different ways.

166
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,720
Some people get enraged and they bring things.

167
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,720
Some people shoot people.

168
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:29,720
Some people keep it bottled up and it can explode in kind of a different direction

169
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,720
for certain individuals, which is a psychokinetic direction.

170
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,720
When we call those situations where they're stressed,

171
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,720
they think of it as an unconscious temper tantrum,

172
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,720
is happening outside themselves and just throwing things around,

173
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,720
probably like they'd like to do if they actually physically could do it.

174
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,720
But by having their unconscious thrown things around, who's going to get blamed?

175
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,720
The invisible force, the invisible ghost,

176
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,720
certainly not the person who's stressed out.

177
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,720
When we talk about the stress involved in these PK events,

178
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,720
which are often called poltergeist cases,

179
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,720
we're not talking about typical stress of, you know, just day-to-day stress,

180
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,720
sitting in traffic, being frustrated because your computer couldn't work,

181
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,720
which may actually be related back to the PK.

182
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,720
Those kinds of stresses do show in small ways sometimes,

183
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,720
but they can again come out in a lot of different ways, for example, road rage,

184
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,720
or people just screaming at the driver across, you know, the way without acting on it.

185
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,720
You release that stress. People have other ways of doing it.

186
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,720
In poltergeist cases, the stresses tend to be very psychologically oriented

187
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,720
in most of these cases.

188
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,720
So they can be related to deep-seated issues around the family

189
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,720
or even around the working conditions.

190
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,720
They are typically not expressed in other ways.

191
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,720
So there's no outlet for most of these people.

192
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,720
Was Jackie's unconscious mind throwing a temper tantrum?

193
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,720
And if so, why?

194
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:49,720
It could be due to the fact she was experiencing emotional issues at the time

195
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,720
following a difficult divorce.

196
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,720
There was enough going on in her life and frankly enough psychological issues

197
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,720
that would indicate that she was responsible for most of the phenomena that was happening.

198
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,720
In most poltergeist cases, people rarely ever think of themselves as the agent.

199
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:09,720
According to Auerbach, the most compelling argument that Jackie was both the victim

200
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:15,720
and the problem is what happened when she moved 600 kilometers away.

201
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:21,720
Incredibly, the vicious paranormal attacks on her continued.

202
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,720
In poltergeist cases, when people move, the phenomena follows them

203
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,720
because it's coming from them.

204
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,720
And that also happened in that particular case.

205
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:37,720
But if Jackie was her own poltergeist, how is it that the new tenants also reported paranormal attacks?

206
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:42,720
Could it be that Jackie herself was responsible for the weird goings on?

207
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,720
Or were they the result of an altogether different kind of bad vibe?

208
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,720
Professor John Huntington believes the Jackie Hernandez case can be explained by

209
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,720
unprotectable audio waves known as infrasound.

210
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,720
Sound is just the vibration in air pressure.

211
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,720
That's how we perceive it. That's how it gets into your ear.

212
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:09,720
Infrasound is below the range that we can hear as an audible sound.

213
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,720
But we're still being affected by the sound wave is still impinging on our bodies.

214
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:22,720
In fact, right now in the room we have a pretty loud 19 hertz, 19 cycle per second infrasound wave going.

215
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,720
But it's not really audible as a sound.

216
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:31,720
And it's quite a bit louder than the level of the speech that I'm talking about right now.

217
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:38,720
But it's still there and it's still affecting us, it's still pressurizing the air that I'm breathing, that I'm speaking.

218
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,720
Human ears can't detect ultra low frequencies.

219
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,720
If it's below 20 hertz, you can't hear it.

220
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,720
But other than our own bodies, what might cause these low frequencies?

221
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:55,720
Man-made sources of infrasound could be anything from a piece of air handling equipment in a building,

222
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:02,720
anything like a train, a truck, anything that's big stuff that's moving could generate these very low, low frequency sounds.

223
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:11,720
Incredibly, Huntington believes low frequency sound waves could have caused Jackie Hernandez's unpleasant experiences.

224
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:17,720
So in addition to things like headaches and nausea being caused by exposure to infrasound,

225
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:25,720
there have been some reports of feeling a presence or some sort of hallucination or feeling like strange things are going on in the room.

226
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:32,720
A lot of that was documented by two researchers at Coventry University, Tandy and Lawrence in the late 90s.

227
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:36,720
They were working in a space, sort of an underground space as I understand it.

228
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,720
And they had all kinds of just strange experiences.

229
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,720
People would think that somebody was standing next to them and when there wasn't anybody in the room,

230
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:49,720
they'd be feeling alone and felt like there was a presence in the room and there wasn't anybody else there.

231
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,720
All kinds of strange experiences happening in this one space.

232
00:14:53,720 --> 00:15:02,720
And this would build up, of course, would build up anxiety having these sort of constant, sort of strange experiences.

233
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:09,720
And then one of the researchers brought a fencing foil into the room to work on and clamped it into a vise and it started moving on its own.

234
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:14,720
And it was sort of flopping up and down at both ends where it wasn't secured in the vise.

235
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:20,720
That led the Tandy and Lawrence to research this and they ended up doing some acoustical measurements in the room

236
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:28,720
and found that a piece of air handling equipment was causing a very loud 19-cycle per second infrasound sound wave in the room.

237
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:36,720
And in addition, the physical geometry of the space was causing that sound wave to build up in certain locations in the lab.

238
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,720
Can infrasound exposure mimic the experience of a haunting?

239
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:48,720
In infrasound, it could possibly cause something like a hallucination or an aphorition or some other things like that

240
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,720
based on the vibration of the sound wave actually affecting the eye.

241
00:15:52,720 --> 00:16:02,720
The eye itself could resonate or get a very strong sort of vibration and that could cause a boring vision or possible issues around the periphery division.

242
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:12,720
Those things coupled with already being in sort of a spooky location, being on edge by the infrasound, could certainly cause some sort of ghostly experiences.

243
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:17,720
Was Jackie's home haunted or was she her own poltergeist?

244
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:23,720
Whatever the answer, this story is certainly weird.

245
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,720
What?

246
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:43,720
A Connecticut housewife is tortured from within. Has she been possessed by an evil spirit?

247
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,720
Demons like to attack good people.

248
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:55,720
Many of us have experienced events that we would call paranormal, but in fact are just things that are harmless and easily explained.

249
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:03,720
But what is the paranormal and does it exist? Even the name is a little, well, weird and scary.

250
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,720
Here's the way it's described in the dictionary.

251
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:12,720
Paranormal, a claim to currents of an event without scientific explanation.

252
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,720
As psychokinesis.

253
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:32,720
Extrasensory perception of other purportedly supernatural phenomena.

254
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,720
Alright guys, come on, that's it.

255
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:43,720
You can fool some... oh boy, oh boy.

256
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:54,720
But some people experience paranormal events that are real, so real in fact they're deadly, weird, or what?

257
00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:03,720
History professor John Kerner studies reports of paranormal activity. None have haunted him more than the story of Patricia Redding.

258
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:11,720
They all count she was a good person. I mean, there's nothing you can see in her past that would indicate why this happens to her.

259
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:16,720
In 1992, Patricia's life took a terrifying turn.

260
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:24,720
Doing chores around her home in Litchfield, Connecticut, she suddenly hears a terrifying voice.

261
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:33,720
She felt what she thought was an evil presence that was around her. There was nothing that could explain this.

262
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:39,720
Patricia tries to brush it off, but the eerie voice won't stop, ever.

263
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:47,720
It's the beginning of a horrifying ordeal.

264
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,720
The situation got much, much worse.

265
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,720
I had a number of things that were happening to her that were very unusual.

266
00:18:54,720 --> 00:19:00,720
There were bite marks on the back of her neck, bruises on the back of her body, things she could not do by herself.

267
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:08,720
What could be inflicting Patricia's vicious bruises and other injuries? It's a frightening and bizarre mystery.

268
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,720
Devastated and disturbed, she seeks help.

269
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:16,720
The family took Patricia Redding to the hospital, to local doctors.

270
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,720
They ruled out all the conditions that could possibly be affecting her.

271
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:28,720
With no medical explanation, Patricia resorts to hoping her problems will simply go away.

272
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,720
But then things started getting much worse after that.

273
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:38,720
She was knocked over. Horribly, if she did not know what is happening.

274
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:43,720
Again, the seemingly evil presence hurls her into the wall.

275
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,720
These are things that never could happen to Pat Redding in a normal situation.

276
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,720
She is not herself. She's becoming someone else.

277
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:59,720
Fearing for her safety, Patricia has only one place to turn.

278
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,720
At that point, the Catholic Church got involved.

279
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:10,720
Patricia's bishop takes her claims seriously. After an examination, he reaches an incredible conclusion.

280
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,720
They make the diagnosis, yes, she is possessed.

281
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,720
Demons like to attack good people.

282
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:23,720
There's only one solution. An ancient ritual as old as the church itself.

283
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:28,720
The bishop decides he will perform an exorcism.

284
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:34,720
He called upon a demon to reveal himself and say who you are, reveal yourself, in the name of Jesus Christ.

285
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,720
Almost every religion really believes in evil in some form or another.

286
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:45,720
But the difference with the Catholic Church is that the Catholic Church believes evil is actually a physical manifestation in this world.

287
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,720
It's such as a concept.

288
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:53,720
At first, the demon stays hidden, but not for long.

289
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,720
She was speaking in a language she could not speak in normally.

290
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:10,720
From insult to priest insult to his family. Things that she never would have done alone.

291
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:15,720
These are pretty clear signs you're dealing with the evil entity inside the person's body.

292
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:20,720
Having forced the demon into the open, the real battle begins.

293
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,720
Things like holy objects, this often can enter the demon.

294
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:32,720
These are tools in a war that can cause them to be so upset, the words of Christ makes them so angry.

295
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,720
So it has to be said over and over again. It's a war of attrition.

296
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,720
The battle rages for hours.

297
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,720
At long last, something breaks.

298
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:48,720
The demons, they're so upset that they can't take this any longer and they'll go somewhere else.

299
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,720
They'll go bother somebody else.

300
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,720
The exhausting battle ends with the demons on the run.

301
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,720
But before long they're back.

302
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,720
Evil is real. It can affect someone in some formal ways.

303
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,720
Sadly, Patricia runs out of time.

304
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:14,720
After 16 exorcisms, in 2005 she dies of cancer, believed to be caused by her demons.

305
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:22,720
Christopher Ross is a psychologist. He says he knows exactly what happened to Patricia Redding.

306
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:29,720
Coming from a religious perspective you might assume that this must be a demonic presence.

307
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,720
But as a psychologist, my diagnosis would be dissociative identity disorder.

308
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:44,720
Better known as a split personality, disassociative identity disorder is when two or more personalities inhabit one mind.

309
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,720
An abusive childhood can sometimes cause such a psychological break.

310
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,720
One personality becomes the happy face the person in the world sees.

311
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,720
The other deals with all the hidden pain, shame and suffering.

312
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,720
The primary personality is unaware of the other personality.

313
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,720
They may hear voices and have these sort of signs but they don't know what it's about.

314
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,720
Can psychology explain the power of an exorcism?

315
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:19,720
After the exorcism, the individual experiences complete and sudden remission of their symptoms.

316
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,720
And of course that's considered to prove positive that the demon has been removed.

317
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:31,720
An alternative way of looking at that however is that the prayer, the ritual is in fact to serve to rearrange these separate identities.

318
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:37,720
Such that they have receded from the host's awareness. They don't hear the voice anymore.

319
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:45,720
Then what I experience having with some patients is that maybe weeks or months later the voice has come back.

320
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:53,720
Everything I'm saying here is in no way meant to malign the value of religious spiritual care.

321
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:01,720
But there are some psychological ways of understanding these experiences that really should be taken into account.

322
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:10,720
Demonic possession. Ordinary people suddenly possessed by nasty entity.

323
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:11,720
Ring a bell?

324
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,720
Well, you know, I've seen all the movies. Omen, One, Two, Three, The Exorcist a lot.

325
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,720
And guess what? Not only do they not scare me, but I don't believe them.

326
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:35,720
I mean, just because it gets a little stormy doesn't mean the devil is on his way to take over his soul, does it?

327
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:43,720
Yeah, that's for all that other ridiculous stuff like twisting heads, speaking in strange tongues.

328
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,720
Is demonic possession all in our heads?

329
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,720
Or is there a more frightening answer?

330
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,720
Reverend Bob Larson is not your average man of God.

331
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,720
I am among other things, an exorcist.

332
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,720
Larson has studied Patricia Redding's possession and is convinced it was real.

333
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:24,720
There are those who would like to have the public believe that demonic possession is rare.

334
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:31,720
I can tell you, it's not rare. It'll make a cold chill go up your spine.

335
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:41,720
Are demons really all around us? Are they trying to take over the bodies of innocent humans?

336
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:50,720
The Bible teaches that when Satan was cast out of heaven, a third of the angels involved in that insurrection were cast out with him.

337
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:58,720
According to the book of Revelation, when Satan lost his war with God, he and his followers were banished to the spirit realm on Earth.

338
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:13,720
Satan is now an invisible spirit being. Satan can't pull the trigger of a gun, but what Satan can do is invade human bodies, and those people then become the instruments of evil.

339
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,720
Larson believes demonic possession has a firm basis in Scripture.

340
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:23,720
He's also certain that Patricia's condition wasn't the case of split personality.

341
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:29,720
I deal a lot with multiple personality disorder. I know the difference.

342
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:41,720
When you see the demon have such utter hatred for God and religious objects such as the cross, that aversion means it's something more than psychosis.

343
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,720
That's when you know they are possessed.

344
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:50,720
But there's one thing Larson believes is the ultimate proof of demonic presence.

345
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:57,720
In the Pat reading case, she apparently spoke in another language. I've seen this happen thousands and thousands of times.

346
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:07,720
I had a woman speak Chinese one time. I had a fascinating case where a strange language was being spoken in a college professor with a PhD in ancient Semitic languages.

347
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,720
He said, I can come up and tell you exactly what the voice was saying. And he did.

348
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:18,720
And the voice was speaking about his possession of the person and how it was determined to destroy them.

349
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,720
Now this was a PhD college professor who was giving testimony to it.

350
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:35,720
Could these four even forgot the languages prove that Satan is carrying on an age-old war by invading the bodies of humans?

351
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:44,720
To the skeptics who may not believe in demonic possession, I say, travel with me and meet the thousands of people who have had exorcisms.

352
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:57,720
When you see the smile and the glow on the person's face as they say to you, wow, I didn't know I could feel like this. Something is gone. That's why I do exorcisms.

353
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:05,720
I don't know about you, but stories of ghosts and the paranormal send shivers up my spine. That's kind of fun, right?

354
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:12,720
But do spirits or ghosts or whatever they are always have to be evil? Aren't there any friendly dead people out there? I hope so.

355
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:19,720
But there's some people who not only enjoy having ghosts around, they can talk to them whenever they like. How?

356
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,720
They've got the gift.

357
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:29,720
In just about every way, Faye Jackson is an average teenage girl.

358
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,720
I like to shop and just hang out with my friends.

359
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:43,720
While Faye's life appears to be ordinary in truth, she and her family are dealing with something so sensitive. They've chosen to conceal their appearance.

360
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:50,720
Although it has become part of everyday life for us, it is still at times frightening.

361
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,720
Faye's story began three years ago when she was 10.

362
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:04,720
I was sitting in my bedroom on my own. I could feel a man sitting next to me.

363
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,720
She could feel like an energy, like a presence next to her.

364
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,720
And I could just feel his breath in my ear when it was all warm.

365
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,720
And then she heard him whispering in the hurry.

366
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:22,720
Can you hear me?

367
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:23,720
Can you hear me?

368
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:24,720
Can you hear me?

369
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,720
Can you hear me?

370
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:29,720
Faye races to her mom.

371
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,720
Like the fear, it was uncontrollable. It was unexplainable.

372
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,720
The child was absolutely terrified and I was scared for her to be honest.

373
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,720
When Lynn takes her daughter back to the room, the man is gone.

374
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,720
But Faye is in no doubt as to what she's experienced.

375
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:54,720
I saw my first ghost.

376
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,720
Terrifyingly, Faye's encounter was just the beginning.

377
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,720
The spirit started regularly visiting me.

378
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:09,720
They'd only come when I was on my own. And when they did, just random spirits were walking to my bedroom.

379
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:16,720
Faye is haunted by hundreds of ghosts. Sometimes she sees as many as five a night.

380
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,720
Sometimes I just want to show her how they died, which is a little bit...

381
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,720
...acquirement times and she's only 13.

382
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,720
The ghosts begin getting bolder.

383
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,720
There was an incident when her bed was shook, which completely terrified me.

384
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:42,720
I just felt like I was being attacked. It was horrible. It felt really dangerous and I felt like I was on my own.

385
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,720
That was when I knew we had to do something about it.

386
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,720
At her wit's end, Lynn seeks professional advice.

387
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,720
We got lots of help from local mediums who understood what was happening.

388
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,720
Far from seeing it as something frightening, the mediums tell them...

389
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:06,720
...Faye's ability to see and connect with the dead is a gift and a very rare one at that.

390
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:15,720
They taught Faye techniques that she could use to take more of a control over her gift and to see it as a gift, really.

391
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:26,720
With the help of psychic mediums, the support of her mother and lots of hard work, Faye finally mastered her gift.

392
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:36,720
It's like I have two lives. I live one life where I'm just a normal girl and then other times I can talk to spirits.

393
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,720
So it's really quite exciting.

394
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:44,720
I see dead people.

395
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,720
That's something else I've always wanted to say, but I can't because I don't. Well, not when I'm sober anyway.

396
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:59,720
But incredibly, it may be because I'm an adult. You see, Faye isn't alone. Millions of other children see dead people too.

397
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:12,720
How? Do they possess a special power, a sixth sense, and is it a gift or a curse? Weird. Or what?

398
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:20,720
Thirteen-year-old Faye Jackson claims she can see ghosts. Do children possess the gift?

399
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:29,720
Who better to ask about children who see ghosts than Karen Goode, author of Children Who See Ghosts?

400
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:37,720
To discover that children see ghosts and talk with ghosts, to me it was exciting.

401
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:46,720
After more than 25 years researching the special abilities of young minds, Goode has reached an incredible conclusion.

402
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:54,720
Children are more predisposed to see ghosts than adults are, primarily because of their brain power.

403
00:32:55,720 --> 00:33:03,720
The sixth sense begins to develop in children between the ages of 18 months, all the way up through five to six years.

404
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:09,720
And the reason is because their brain is going through a tremendous growth spurt.

405
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:16,720
We've all heard of the sixth sense, but what is it? What does it do that your other five can't?

406
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:25,720
When I discuss with a parent, for example, what is the sixth sense? I explain it to a parent as being intuitive intelligence.

407
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:32,720
Some people have a heightened intuition, particularly sensitive children.

408
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:39,720
We call them sensitive because they may be sensitive to the feelings of someone who might be ill.

409
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:48,720
Or one child that I'm aware of used to tell me about he would know a car accident when his mom was driving.

410
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:54,720
He would get nauseated and it always correlated for him with a nearby car accident.

411
00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:03,720
So I think that a sixth sense involves feeling and intuition and it could involve heightened sensitivities.

412
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:15,720
But where does this sixth sense come from? Is it a gift only bestowed on some? Remarkably, Goode believes it's an ability that's within us all.

413
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:23,720
The pineal gland is located within the brain, which actually regulates light within our body.

414
00:34:24,720 --> 00:34:28,720
I believe the pineal gland can be a doorway to the sixth sense.

415
00:34:29,720 --> 00:34:37,720
But if we all have the ability to access our sixth sense, why do so few children maintain this power into adulthood?

416
00:34:37,720 --> 00:34:50,720
Does the hormones change? Children go through brainwave shifts, mood shifts, and that's the time logic develops.

417
00:34:51,720 --> 00:34:55,720
And children may turn away from their intuition, their feelings.

418
00:34:56,720 --> 00:35:04,720
If children have not been encouraged in their imagination, in their conversations, and sixth sense development,

419
00:35:04,720 --> 00:35:07,720
it can shut down when cognition sets in.

420
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:20,720
Psychic Jack Rourke is an expert in parapsychology. Experience has taught him that a far more mundane explanation may be at work or rather at home.

421
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:28,720
There is a phenomenon called parentizing, where in essence there's a bit of a role reversal,

422
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:35,720
where a child can sometimes become the caretaker of the parent or become the mirror to the parent.

423
00:35:36,720 --> 00:35:43,720
Rourke believes that through parentizing, children can be actively encouraged to say they see ghosts.

424
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:51,720
The more positive reinforcement a child gets from their parent, that they are special, that they are extra sensitive,

425
00:35:52,720 --> 00:35:58,720
that they have special empathic or intuitive abilities, the more the child then believes they're psychic.

426
00:35:59,720 --> 00:36:01,720
And I'll give you an example of how this is done.

427
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:08,720
A child wakes up in the middle of the night from a horrible dream and is talking about ghosts, chasing them, things like this.

428
00:36:10,720 --> 00:36:13,720
You come in as the parent and say, no, you're wrong, that didn't happen.

429
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:18,720
You lose the ability to comfort the child because they've been made wrong.

430
00:36:19,720 --> 00:36:24,720
Now I go into the room, same scenario, and I say, oh, you saw a ghost, didn't you?

431
00:36:25,720 --> 00:36:27,720
Yes. This is how it's done.

432
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:35,720
But why would a child like Faye go along with the idea of seeing ghosts? What's in it for her?

433
00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:42,720
The specialness of the child in these circumstances gives the child permission to commiserate with the parent.

434
00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:46,720
They become their emotional partner. They go to activities together.

435
00:36:46,720 --> 00:36:52,720
They may go to certain psychic functions. And this unique relationship becomes a reward to the child.

436
00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:59,720
And in order to maintain that closeness with their parent, they have to maintain the psychic identity.

437
00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:03,720
For the parent, this also gives them passive means to control the child.

438
00:37:04,720 --> 00:37:10,720
And also what I've witnessed is a way to slow down their development and prolong their childhood.

439
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:13,720
So this is an interesting thing. One of the things that we look at.

440
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:18,720
Now, why per se a child might have a specific experience?

441
00:37:19,720 --> 00:37:22,720
It could be biological. It could be an environmental reason.

442
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:26,720
It could just be an ordinary bad dream.

443
00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:30,720
Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

444
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:36,720
Are children who see ghosts merely playing out of fantasy with the encouragement of their parents?

445
00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:39,720
Is there nothing special about them at all?

446
00:37:39,720 --> 00:37:43,720
Does the gift exist in children of all?

447
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:49,720
Thousands of children across the globe claim they can see dead people.

448
00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:55,720
Do they have an extra special sense known as the gift?

449
00:37:57,720 --> 00:38:04,720
Paranormal investigator Joshua P. Warren believes there could be a medical explanation for this phenomenon.

450
00:38:04,720 --> 00:38:17,720
A person like Faye may be capable of seeing ghosts because she has some physiological advantage and her eyeballs themselves.

451
00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:22,720
Could Faye's eye have powers the rest of ours don't?

452
00:38:23,720 --> 00:38:29,720
Warren believes her secret may be that she sees light differently.

453
00:38:29,720 --> 00:38:36,720
Right now, all the data that we have indicates ghosts are more visible in the infrared realm.

454
00:38:37,720 --> 00:38:42,720
Some of the best ghost images I've seen have been captured using infrared technology.

455
00:38:43,720 --> 00:38:51,720
Could Faye be seeing ghosts that are all around us? Ghosts that most of us miss because we can't see infrared?

456
00:38:52,720 --> 00:39:00,720
The average person can only see a relatively narrow band of light from usually around green to red.

457
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:05,720
Faye might be able to see a little bit more than the rest of us.

458
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:11,720
Scientists call the range of light the visible spectrum, although most of us know it as the colors of the rainbow.

459
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:18,720
But what if Faye was somehow able to literally see what the rest of us can't?

460
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:25,720
In the human eye, there are two primary types of cells. You've got the rod cells and the cone cells.

461
00:39:26,720 --> 00:39:30,720
Rod cells are used for nighttime vision, but they can't see color.

462
00:39:31,720 --> 00:39:36,720
Then you have the cone cells, which respond very quickly and they see color.

463
00:39:37,720 --> 00:39:47,720
If Faye has more of those rod or cone cells, especially the cones, that alone might allow her to see a broader range of light.

464
00:39:48,720 --> 00:39:51,720
The range of colors and frequencies than the average person.

465
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:59,720
Her eyes physiologically allow her to peer deeper into the infrared or ultraviolet realms.

466
00:40:00,720 --> 00:40:10,720
Incredibly, Warren also believes the eye might not just explain Faye's story, but also why children on average report seeing more ghosts than adults.

467
00:40:11,720 --> 00:40:17,720
As a person ages, the components of the eye become more and more dense.

468
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:21,720
In extreme cases, they can become very cloudy and form a cataract.

469
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:28,720
So the older you get, the less you're able to see when it comes to this band of frequencies.

470
00:40:29,720 --> 00:40:34,720
Children are not only able to see a wider range of frequencies,

471
00:40:34,720 --> 00:40:39,720
but they also should have an open mind and open awareness.

472
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:51,720
They have not been structured so much yet into a belief system and into a task-driven day-to-day routine that gives us tunnel vision as adults.

473
00:40:52,720 --> 00:41:01,720
As children, they still have a wider awareness and perception of what's around them and the willingness to acknowledge honestly what they see.

474
00:41:04,720 --> 00:41:10,720
Could Faye and other children like her really be able to see into the infrared world of ghosts?

475
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:13,720
Does she have a sixth sense?

476
00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:20,720

477
00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:23,720

Or want.

Are these bizarre stories evidence that ghosts exist?

485
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:27,720
Can we see comfort in rational explanations or do we ignore them at our peril?

486
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:29,720
You decide.
