In this episode of Paranormal Underground Radio: In The Dark, we talk with Sylvia Shults, author of 44 Years in Darkness: A True Story of Madness, Tragedy and Shattered Love. This new book focuses on one of the patients at Peoria State Hospital in Bartonville, Illinois -- a woman whose spirit still roams the rounds of the abandoned asylum. 
Sylvia has been a paranormal investigator for several years. She began her career as a ghost hunter as a result of doing the research for her nonfiction book Ghosts of the Illinois River (Quixote Press, 2010). Her fascination with ghosts dates back to her childhood, as she is an avid reader who was raised on Grimm’s Fairy Tales.
A few years ago, Sylvia was inspired to write a collection of people’s supernatural experiences at the Peoria State Hospital in Bartonville, Illinois. This project quickly swelled into Fractured Spirits: Hauntings at the Peoria State Hospital. The book incorporates the history of the asylum, as well as the many ghost stories that have arisen out of the asylum’s abandonment. In an effort to separate fact from fiction, Sylvia thoroughly explores the true history of the hospital.

Introduction to the Episode [00:09 - 01:04]
Chucky G introduces the podcast and the episode's theme, glitches in the Matrix, alongside hosts Karen Fraser and Cheryl Knight. The hosts share a humorous moment about experiencing their own "glitch" by missing a January show, suggesting they did one in an alternate reality.
The Mandela Effect & Parallel Universes [01:10 - 02:41]
The conversation shifts to the Mandela Effect and the concept of parallel universes. Cheryl recounts a synchronicity involving her decision not to write about the Mandela Effect for Paranormal Underground magazine, only for the theme to resurface through a podcast suggestion and a coincidental article submission.
Personal Experiences with Reality Glitches [02:52 - 07:52]
Karen shares a personal story about experiencing a glitch with a work-related article, sparking a discussion on the nature of reality and whether we experience overlaps of alternate realities, especially highlighted by unexplainable occurrences and the phenomenon of deja vu.
Quantum Physics and the Nature of Reality [07:52 - 13:31]
The hosts delve into quantum physics and the many-worlds interpretation, discussing how every decision might create a branching path in an infinite web of parallel universes. They ponder if our consciousness might shift between these realities, contributing to experiences of glitches or Mandela Effects.
AI, Consciousness, and Reality Creation [13:31 - 16:05]
Discussion turns to the idea of reality as a simulation, possibly managed by advanced AI or extraterrestrial beings. The hosts speculate on the implications of AI becoming self-aware and the role of consciousness in shaping our reality and experiences.
Mandela Effects and Collective Memory [17:25 - 19:55]
The team discusses various well-known Mandela Effects, such as the misremembering of brand names or historical events, exploring how these phenomena may point to the existence of alternate realities or the fallibility of human memory.
Synchronicities and the Fabric of Reality [21:37 - 23:17]
Cheryl brings up the concept of synchronicity, sharing examples from Paranormal Underground magazine that suggest a deeper, interconnected web of events and experiences, possibly hinting at the underlying structure of reality.
Personal Growth and Letting Go of Control [23:54 - 28:43]
The hosts reflect on their personal journeys of learning to let go of the illusion of control, embracing trust in the universe, and finding peace in the acceptance of life's flow, highlighting the importance of self-growth and mindfulness.
Concluding Thoughts [55:26 - 57:17]
The episode concludes with the announcement of an upcoming guest and a recap of the themes discussed. The hosts express hope for future explorations and invite listeners to share their experiences with reality glitches on the Mindful Mystics Facebook page.

Hosts: Karen Frazier, Chuckie G, and Cheryl Knight-Wilson
Show Notes:
In this episode of Mindful Mystics, Karen, Cheryl and Chuckie G talk with Karen Anderson, pet loss specialist, afterlife expert, animal communicator, coach, and award-winning author. Karen shares insights from her years as an animal communicator so we can understand how the love we share with our pets carries on forever. 
Karen’s life journey has taken her from intuitive child to law enforcement officer and eventually to her true calling as a professional animal communicator, medium, and coach. Raised in a family that didn't understand her unique abilities, Karen fought through life's challenges, including abusive relationships and a crushing bankruptcy, before finding her true purpose. A transformative encounter with a dove helped her realize that her gifts were not only real, but crucial to her life's work.
Karen has made it her mission to help others unlock their spiritual gifts and overcome personal struggles. After years in law enforcement, where her intuitive gifts played a crucial role in her work, she now helps her clients — both two-legged and four-legged — navigate life's complexities.
The founder of the Painted Rain Ranch Animal Sanctuary, Karen has also become a #1 bestselling and multiple award-winning author. Her book, “The Amazing Afterlife of Animals,” aims to help people cope with the grief of losing a pet. And her newest book, “The Pet I Can’t Forget: Finding Hope and Healing With Signs From the Afterlife,” features real-life stories from pet parents who have received healing messages from the afterlife.
