If there's one thing I know about ghosts, it's that you can't hit them with your car. However, when a power transformer exploded in Connecticut in 1993, the line between the world of the living and dead ceased to exist. According to the legends, one woman in particular was temporarily given a human form.

It’s said that Beethoven’s death was like a biblical scene — he shook his fist at the heavens and a clap of thunder roared across Vienna as he left this world. His contemporary, Mahler, would become obsessed with his death because of another strange coincidence surrounding it: he died composing his tenth symphony, making Beethoven one of a long line of composers to die after completing their ninth symphony. Mahler would call this the curse of the ninth. Is there some strange supernatural power that limits earthly musicians to nine symphonies like a cat has nine lives? Or have these composers made a deal with the devil? Time for Rory and Kit to put on their powdered wigs and investigate!

In 1994, game designed Steve Jackson released a card game titled "Illuminati: New World Order", a game where players would role play as puppet-master organizations fighting for world domination. Sounds fun, right? Well things took a paranormal turn when years later, players realised that those cards from the 90's were giving away information on actual real life events… from the future.

Despite consulting photographic experts and even Kodak themselves, it has never been proven to be a hoax. On this episode of This Paranormal Life, Kit and Rory investigate the site of this event: the Tulip staircase within the Queen's House in London, try to understand whether the events of 1966 were really paranormal, and even attempt to recreate Ralph Hardy's fateful photograph!

Locals watched in awe as it zipped around at impossible speeds and even shot a LIGHT BEAM down towards the icy ground.
