Eric Dwinnells and guest co-host Tom
Cole are back to talk about talking to the dead!
Specifically, they are talking about The Fox
Sisters (Maggie, Kate, and Leah). In 1849, a series of
strange noises started to emanate seemingly from nowhere in the Fox
family home. The family could discover no natural explanation for
the sudden knockings, cracks, and bangs so they decided it must be
a spirit (naturally!).Ma Fox was unnerved, but the younger
daughters (Maggie and Kate) thought of it as new kind of game and
started to try to work out ways to communicate with the spirits.
When older sister Leah discovered she hd the ability to speak to
the spirits too, that's when things really got interesting! Acting
as their manager, Leah took Maggie and Leah on a cross country tour
that last many years.
It was the birth of spiritualism which became all
the rage sweeping the western world from the mid 19th to the early
20th century. And it all started with two girls in upstate New
York...but was it all a hoax? Were the girls producing these noises
themselves? What was their life like on tour with sister /manager
Leah? And whatever happened to Maggie and Kate? Find out
tonight!
Also Eric talks about his run-in with the real life Patch Adams and
drops so BIG news about his official involvement in the
Salem Witch Trials of 2016!!!!
