Hidden Marietta co-owner Melisa "Viva" Farris is a fresh voice in the paranormal world. The 33-year-old African American woman grew up in a haunted apartment building in Brooklyn, New York, and now helps run the tourism and ghost-hunting company in Marietta, Ohio, complete with movie nights and an oddities shop. She joins Talking Strange to discuss her interesting background, philosophies around the paranormal, and how she adds a whole new voice to the field.
