History of the Paranormal: Seances, Hoaxes, and Ectoplasm

Welcome to ParaGhoul Paranormal: Discoveries from the Dark, the radio show that delves into the eerie and unexplained mysteries of western Canada’s most haunted locations, the history of paranormal investigations, and dark fiction. Join your host, KD Kulpa, on Tuesday nights at 6:30 pm in Saskatchewan time on 91.3 FM CJTR as she explores the shadows and uncovers the stories that send shivers down your spine. In today’s episode, we are diving back into the history of the paranormal, or more specifically, our fascination with it! We are going back to the turn of the 19th Century to discuss the emergence of mediums and seances as a popular way to communicate with the dead. We will also be discussing the paranormal phenomena that came from these mediums, and the famous scientists and illusionists (even Houdini himself) that were determined to expose them all as fakes.   Love what you’re hearing?
