Micah Sloat and Katie Featherston, the stars of the 2009 surprise blockbuster hit Paranormal Activity join host Aaron Sagers to discuss their new Audible Original podcast "Paranormal Activity: True Tales of Possession." Sloat uses his real-life exploration of the paranormal and spiritism, while Featherston serves as the curious voice of the audience as they examine real-life stories of demonic possession, tracing the phenomenon from its earliest known accounts to its modern-day headlines.

With help from noted experts in witchcraft, shamanism, exorcism, and parapsychology, Katie and Micah explore chilling cases throughout history and across cultures, challenging our understanding of the world—or worlds—around us.

More about the guests:

Micah Sloat is best known for his breakout role in the 2009 surprise smash Paranormal Activity. His performance earned him a Teen Choice Award nomination for Best Horror Film Actor, and he reprised his role in several Paranormal Activity sequels. Sloat’s interest in the paranormal extends far beyond the screen. He has a broad background in many spiritual traditions, with a focus on Peruvian shamanism, British Traditional Witchcraft, and Hawaiian shamanism. By combining these practices with his undergraduate studies in philosophy and his master’s degree in Transpersonal Psychology, he’s developed his own transformational practice for healing, change, and manifestation called Spirit Work.

Katie Featherston is best known for playing the lead role in Paramount's 2009 smash hit Paranormal Activity, which earned her the Best Actress award at the 2009 Screamfest Film Festival, and has been ranked among many critics' lists of the "Best Horror Movies" ever made. Featherston has also appeared in many of the subsequent sequels, and was brought on to appear in multiple episodes of ABC's The River produced by Steven Spielberg. She can also be seen in the short films Solace for the Unloved and Becoming, both of which she co-directed, as well as in season 2 of HBO’s Big Little Lies.
