September 28 The REAL Dracula: Vlad the Impaler
Most people know that Bram Stoker's Dracula is based on a real person, a Romanian Prince named Vlad III -- more famously known as Vlad the Impaler. But the truth is, Stoker's Dracula and Vlad the Impaler barely have anything to do with each another, and the real Vlad Dracula was way more violent, cruel, and bloodthirsty than any vampire you'll see in the movies or read about in a book. Join me as I share the fascinating story of the REAL Dracula, Vlad the Impaler.

August 31 The Great American Ghost Hoax
A sucker is born every minute—or so the saying goes. But in the late 1700s, a Connecticut schoolteacher turned that idea into a fortune. Ranford Rogers convinced hundreds of people that buried treasure lay hidden beneath their own towns, guarded by restless ghosts. He also claimed that he alone could make those spirits surrender their riches ... for a price. Join me as I share the incredible true story of the Great American Ghost Hoax, and how one man’s supernatural scheme swindled hundreds of people out of more than $100,000.

August 10 Symphonies from the Other Side: The Housewife Who Channeled Dead Composers
When Rosemary Brown was just 7-years-old, she was visited by the spirit of a strange old man who told her that he would return to her one day and give her music. She would later learn that the man was the composer Franz Liszt. Over time, Rosemary claimed that he and other dead composers -- including Beethoven, Bach, Chopin, and Schumann -- dictated hundreds of new compositions to her from the afterlife. Was she a brilliant fraud, a musical savant, or was she truly receiving music from the dead? Join me as I present the intriguing life of spirit composer Rosemary Brown – the most fascinating and controversial cases of spirit communication the world has ever known.

July 06 Ghosts From the Future
Most people who have seen a ghost in their home assume that it's the spirit of someone who died in the house years earlier, and that they're now haunting it. But what if some ghosts aren’t from the past? What if they’re actually from the future? It might sound like a strange idea, but physics theories about time and space suggest that it IS possible to see "ghosts" from the future. Join me as I explore this and other theories behind the strange sightings people have had of ghosts from the past, the present, and the future.

June 08 W.B. Yeats: The Automatic "Ghost Writing" Sessions
Of the many methods people use to communicate with the spirit world, the most intriguing and controversial is automatic writing. In 1917, Nobel laureate poet W.B. Yeats and his wife embarked on a paranormal journey where they used automatic writing to produce Yeats’ groundbreaking book “A Vision”. In addition to receiving messages from the spirits, the couple also witnessed other strange, unexplained phenomena. And the ensuing book is considered to be one of the strangest, most divisive works of literary modernism. Join me as I explore the fascinating story of Yeats’ experiments with automatic writing.
