Ah, love… Specifically true love. Soul mates even! Is there anything better? Yes, both of you being alive is a plus! That is just the predicament Joe Fisher found himself in, the love of his life (17 lifetimes to be exact) was a spirit guide from the metaphysical realm he could only talk to through a channeller. Talk about awkward date nights. But Joe was up for a challenge, after all he was England’s youngest newspaper editor at 22 and an accomplished investigative reporter turned author, so no problem! Unless you count the wild-goose chase he goes on to prove the existence of the afterlife, the public ridicule he receives for his beliefs, and the downward spiral his life goes down culminating in a death some say was at the hands of said spirits. It’s a heck of a story so we enlist the help of another author who makes his triumphant return to H51, Mr. Dan Kozuh. Is reincarnation real? Can spirits commit murder? Why is Brent a master of dialects??? We take a swing at answering those and many more questions this week on Hysteria 51.
