In Part 2 of Esther Cox and the Great Amherst Mystery, we return to Nova Scotia to examine the disturbing aftermath of one of the most controversial hauntings in North American history. Esther’s life spiraled after a traumatic event, followed by violent poltergeist activity, mysterious voices, and messages from unseen forces. But was she truly possessed, or simply used by those around her for money and fame? This episode explores biblical parallels to Esther's case, including the spirit of divination in Acts 16, the dangers of Mesmerism, and the spiritual implications of trauma. What happened to Esther may have been more than psychological. It may have been a spiritual war with no one to fight for her.
