“Maybe all the people who say ghosts don’t exist are just afraid to admit that they do.”
- Michael Ende, “The Neverending Story”

Pop culture has long tapped into the unsettling power of children in horror from Haley Joel Osment whispering “I see dead people” in "The Sixth Sense" to Linda Blair screaming “Mother!” as Pazuzu takes control in "The Exorcist". There’s something uniquely terrifying about kids as a vehicle for the supernatural. Maybe it’s because children are the most innocent among us. They aren’t weighed down by social norms or skepticism; they live in a liminal space where fantasy and reality blur together.

So when they see something (or someone) that adults cannot, we’re forced to wonder: is this imagination… or something darker?

In this episode, M recounts 10 true stories of people who encountered ghosts as children or whose children were haunted by the unseen.

Story 1: Kathryn’s Stories
Story 2: The Tree Girl
Story 3: Kaylee
Story 4: Baby Visitor
Story 5: The Old Man in the Shed
Story 6: Uncle Andrew
Story 7: Grandpa
Story 8: Ghost Girl
Story 9: Mr. Rand 
Story 10: Courtney
Story 11: Striped T-Shirt

“There is no death as we know and understand it – only life and energy going from one stage to another. Imagine a pool of sparks going in and out at an atomic level."
Raz Mihal, Just Love Her

When a child is born, are they still tethered to the spiritual realm? Would this explain children who can recount past life experiences with details that would be impossible for a child to know? What about adults, who suddenly regress and recall moments of a past life? In this episode, listen in as M retells true stories of their encounters with past life recollections.

Note: The volume quality on Story 1 is not as good as I would like it to be. I tried re-recording twice and experienced issues - almost like something was preventing it👻

“His countenance had something in it that was not human, though he was not positively deformed.”— Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Robert Louis Stevenson

Were they demons? Interdimensional travelers? Or just ghosts wearing unfamiliar shapes?
