I’m excited to announce that my best pal in the whole world (seriously!) Joshua P. Warren will be on Coast to Coast AM this morning with George Noory. He will be discussing the relationship between ghosts and UFOs, and I even hear he may be tossing into the mix an article I wrote for FATE Magazine a while ago, titled “Ghostly Receptors” which dealt with the same sort of material.

Joshua will join George Noory on the program at 2:00 AM EDST, and I’m certain a variety of other strange and interesting topice will be on the table as well. I encourage everyone to listen in, as it’s never a dull time when Josh is in the house!

When it comes to guessing about what might qualify for being called “paranormal Hollywood”, many things come to mind. For instance, the enigmatic phrase, “I warned him,” uttered by former “Joker” Jack Nicholson upon learning of Heath Ledger’s tragic and untimely death. Or maybe even the uber-eccentric weirdness commonly associated with guys like Tom Billy Bob ThorntonCruise and Gary Busey could qualify for being evidence that they’re actually aliens from another dimension. But when stewing over paranormal themes in Hollywood, I was a bit surprised to learn about Billy Bob Thornton’s ties to ghostly phenomenon.

Thornton, Hollywood’s reigning hillbilly king, is most often associated with his role in films like Monster’s Ball and Slingblade, or even his “ethereal ex” Angelina Jolie. Thornton is also known to be a good buddy of the legendy vampire and “King of the Country-Western Troubadors” Unknown Hinson. Of all these things that might be considered kinda spooky about the guy, I was still even more surprized to learn (partly due to his professed dislike for “old stuff”) that Thornton is living in a 1920s mansion that is purportedly haunted!  Read the rest of this entry »

“Night Hags”, in the literal sense, are a particularly strange brand of phenomena. The term itself is most often associated with sleep paralysis, but the “hags” I’m referring to in this blog are a bit different. In fact, I’ve come across many instances where people have claimed to awaken from sleep and see a physical entity either sitting on their chests, or standing elsewhere in their bedrooms watching them. Aside from sleep paralysis itself, this notion could also be linked with paranormal reports involving things like alien abduction.

On one occasion, I asked my pal Joshua P. Warren about what, if anything, scared him most (since he and I have spent years upon years hunting paranormal anomalies with this guy, and seldom encounter anything truely frightening I might add)!

After some thought, Josh replied, “I always get reports from people who have woken up to find a ghost or apparition standing over them, watching them sleep.” He described one occasion he had been told of where a woman experiencing various aspects of a haunting in her home had also awoken very early every at a specific time over several consecutive mornings, unable to find a cause for her sleepless nights. Someone suggested that she set up a video camera to film the bedroom around the time she had been waking up. She did, and reviewing the footage, she saw a tall shadow-like “apparition” enter the room, stand over her bed and watch her for several moments, then leave. Just after its departure, the woman woke up! Right there in the video she claimed that the clock in her bedroom read the same time she had consistently awoken on the several previous evenings. Based on this idea, Josh’s most frightening scenario dealt with “why they watch us while we sleep.”
