Howard Storm on Saturday, June 1, 1985, at the age of 38, Howard Storm’s had a near-death experience due to a perforation of the stomach and his life was since forever changed. His near-death experience is one of the most profound, if not the most profound, afterlife experience ever documented. 

They were more like silhouettes, or shapes, and as Howard moved toward to them they backed off into the haze. Howard tried to get close to them to identify them, they quickly withdrew deeper into the fog.  So he decided to follow into the fog deeper and deeper. These strange beings kept urging him to come with them. 

Howard repeatedly asked them where are we were going, and they responded, “Hurry up, you’ll find out.”

They wouldn’t answer anything. The only response was insisting that he had to hurry up and follow them. They told him repeatedly that his pain was meaningless and unnecessary.
