Drawing from years in the ICU and more than 500 deaths he has witnessed, Dr. Rizvi shares what he’s learned about the moments surrounding death, the emotional reckoning families often face, and how forgiveness and compassion sometimes emerge in the most unexpected ways. We also explore remarkable experiences reported near the end of life, including deathbed visions and cases that challenge the idea that consciousness ends with the body. Along the way, Jim and Dr. Rizvi reflect on what these moments reveal about how we live our lives right now, and why confronting mortality can sometimes lead to deeper meaning and connection.

All About Tarot with Kerry Ward - The Paranormal Podcast 928
Mar 300:41:36Tap to summarizeTarot has fascinated people for centuries, but what is really going on when the cards are laid out on the table? Jim talks with tarot expert Kerry Ward, a longtime reader, author, and deck creator who has spent decades helping people use the cards as a tool for insight and self-reflection. She explains why tarot has endured for hundreds of years, how the cards can reveal patterns in our lives, and why so many people turn to them when facing big questions about love, career, and personal direction. The conversation also dives into common misconceptions about tarot, surprising moments from Kerry’s years of readings, and the deeper ways the cards can help people rethink challenges or turning points in their lives. Kerry also discusses her newest projects, including Zodiac Love Match and The Light in the Dark Tarot, a deck inspired by themes of loss, healing, and finding hope even in difficult seasons. Whether you are curious about tarot or already a fan, this episode offers a thoughtful and engaging look at why these mysterious cards continue to capture people’s imagination.

A Cursed Collection of Haunted Dolls - The Paranormal Podcast 927
Feb 2400:37:40Tap to summarizeFiona Dodwell joins us from the UK to explore one of the most unsettling corners of the paranormal: haunted dolls. Drawing from her book A Cursed Collection of Haunted Dolls, Fiona shares how a research project turned personal when she adopted a clown doll said to carry its own energy! We discuss famous cases like Robert the Doll and Peggy, but also dig into lesser-known stories that are just as disturbing. Along the way, Fiona explains why dolls, with their human likeness and emotional resonance, may be uniquely suited to becoming vessels for unexplained phenomena. From a Japanese doll whose hair reportedly continued to grow after its young owner’s death, to firsthand accounts from collectors who actively seek out haunted objects, this conversation examines whether spirits can truly attach themselves to physical items. Fiona also reflects on whether our own energy can imprint onto cherished belongings, blurring the line between memory and manifestation. Whether you are a skeptic or a believer, this episode invites you to reconsider the objects sitting quietly on your shelves and what they might be holding onto.

The Palmistry of Fingerprints - The Paranormal Podcast 926
Feb 1800:48:55Tap to summarizeCan your hands really say something meaningful about who you are? This week, Jim welcomes hand-reading expert Christopher Jones, author of The Palmistry of Fingerprints: The Secret Patterns Hidden in Your Fingers and Palms. Rather than fortune telling, Jones argues that the hands reflect personality, tendencies, and even how we process the world. He explains why fingerprints matter more than the lines most people focus on, how those lines actually change during your life, and why hand reading may be less mystical than many assume. We also explore the history of palmistry, its surprising connections to medical research, and what your hands might reveal about temperament, motivation, and life direction.

Ghosts, Spirits, and Folklore of Japan - The Paranormal Podcast 923
Jan 2700:46:18Tap to summarizeKevin O’Shea, host of Supernatural Japan, joins us for a fascinating look at how the paranormal is woven into everyday life in Japanese culture. Note: If you are watching the video version, you may notice some brief video glitches on our guest’s side at the very beginning of this interview. His audio is clear throughout, and the video stabilizes eventually. Thanks for sticking with us. Kevin shares how his journey from folklore-loving Canadian to longtime resident of Japan opened his eyes to a worldview where spirits, ancestors, and unseen forces are not fringe ideas but part of the social fabric. From Shinto beliefs and nature spirits to seasonal traditions surrounding the dead, this conversation explores how a technologically advanced society has held onto deeply rooted supernatural traditions.

What's It Like To Run A Witchcraft Museum - The Paranormal Podcast 922
Jan 2000:46:58Tap to summarizeJim sits down with Steven Intermill, the manager of the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft in Cleveland, Ohio. Steven shares the unlikely path that led him from museum work of a very different kind to becoming the public steward of one of the most important collections of modern witchcraft artifacts in the United States. Along the way, we explore the legacy of Raymond Buckland, often called the father of American witchcraft, and how Buckland's personal collection evolved into a living museum that attracts visitors from around the world. The conversation moves from history to the deeply human side of belief, touching on ritual objects, folklore, and the stories people bring with them when they walk through the museum doors. Steven reflects on misconceptions surrounding witchcraft, the museum’s role as a place of education and welcome, and why certain artifacts carry such emotional weight. There are also lighter, surprising moments involving Ouija boards, haunted objects, and why curiosity, not fear, is often the real gateway into the unknown. This is a thoughtful, behind-the-scenes look at a museum that preserves more than objects. It preserves stories, experiences, and a living spiritual tradition.

Hospice Nurse Julie - The Paranormal Podcast 921
Jan 1300:45:53Tap to summarizeJim talks with Julie McFadden, RN, known to millions as Hospice Nurse Julie, about death in a honest, open, and surprisingly comforting chat. Drawing on her years in hospice care, Julie shares what people experience at end of life, why talking openly about dying can actually bring relief, and how acknowledging our mortality can help us live with more clarity and purpose. Her insights come from being at the bedside with patients and families during their most vulnerable moments, and they carry the calm assurance of someone who has seen this up close many times. The conversation also moves into compelling paranormal territory, touching on "visioning," deathbed experiences, and moments that don’t fit neatly into medical explanations. Julie recounts stories of patients seeing deceased loved ones and feeling a sense of comfort or presence near the end, including one experience that continues she'll never forget. -- JOIN JIM’S SPOOKY STUDIO PLUS CLUB You can get access to Jim’s entire back catalog of Campfire and a TON of exclusive content with the Spooky Studio Plus Club.

Navigating The Out Of Body Experience - The Paranormal Podcast 920
Jan 600:50:27Tap to summarizeWe are joined by Graham Nicholls, a leading researcher and experiencer of out-of-body experiences, to explore what really happens when consciousness seems to separate from the physical body. Graham shares his own early, spontaneous OBEs and how they led him down a path that blends firsthand experience with serious scientific inquiry. We discuss what defines an out-of-body experience, how common they may be, and how they relate to near-death experiences, illness, and altered states of consciousness. The conversation goes deeper into the science, touching on parapsychology, controlled experiments, and how concepts from quantum physics might help explain non-local consciousness. Graham also addresses skepticism head-on, discusses fear and safety concerns surrounding OBEs, and explains why intentional experiences can be transformative rather than dangerous. Along the way, we explore precognitive experiences, time perception, and practical first steps for those curious about exploring consciousness beyond the body. A thoughtful, grounded discussion that challenges assumptions while staying rooted in careful research and lived experience.
