Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
And welcome back to Coast to Coast. George Nori with you,
Dona Frank Cart with us? Or book is I've Seen
Dead People?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Donna?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
What was that first experience where you realized there's something
very strange going on here?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
The first experience was when it was actually not at
the death scene, but it was the next day, which
happened to be on a weekend, and my son came.
It was in the summertime and I had I was
at the stove making dinner with my back to the
(00:41):
back door, and my son, who was in high school,
came in and said to me, who wrote high on
your back? And I looked at it and I said,
I'm like what he said, who wrote high on your back? Here?
Let me take a picture. So he took a cell
phone and he took a picture of it. I still
have it. It's actually I think it is. It's in
(01:04):
my second books, which is the sequel, and it's called
I Am Not Alone. It was just published last month,
which is the continuation, but it's all about the paranormal.
But anyhow, I have the picture of that of high
written on my back. So that was the start of it.
Where I where I where I noticed, like holy cats,
it didn't hurt. It was high the letter eight letters H,
(01:27):
and I bright red from like nails or something scratching.
And that was very unnerving.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Did you ever figure out what entity did that to you?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
I actually did go to a psychic. It was the
first time I'd been to a psychic, and I didn't
tell him much. He's in this area, he's very good,
but I didn't tell him anything because I was very skeptical.
I felt a lot and not saying anything against mediums,
(02:03):
but you know, I wanted to make sure that I
wasn't being fed a line of you know, malarkey. But
he had said to me that there was a young
man that was coming forward and he said, he's he's
an a hole. And I said, what do you mean.
(02:23):
He said, well, what he's saying to me, he just
seems like he is. But you you a parent, and
I don't remember. This isn't verbatim right, the verbiage what
he'd said, but something to that effect. He'd said it
was a car fatality, and he thought it was funny,
and so he wrote high on my back, and so
this psychic told him to leave me alone. Now, sure,
(02:46):
this medium could have just said fatality, and obviously a
corner is going to have dealt with fatalities. But he
said a few things that matched up with that particular
case that I was still fresh in my mind. So, yes,
it was a young.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Young Does he still harass you this entity?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I don't think so. And you know, and I have
entities that have appeared before me that I don't recognize
any of them, and I've asked about that and they said.
I was told that it doesn't necessarily have to be
anybody that you know, they said, I was so compassionate unseen,
I'm like a beacon of light to spirit world.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Would you go to the body? Would you go to
the body scene? Quite a bit?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
I had to when there was It was always I'd
be paged out for any unwitnessed, suspicious, violent, unexpected deaths,
so like carpatalities, drowning, fires, murders, yeah, homicide, suicide, overdoses.
(03:56):
So when there would be a body, somebody who died
at the scene, it becomes a crime scene until that
scene has worked to be able to rule out that
there was any foul player, whatever had transpired that ended
up with this person losing their life. So the body
(04:16):
was under my control. The crime scene, the police officers
and the detectives would work. So yes, I had to
go to the scene because I would pronounce the time
of death. I'd have to examine the body, draw fluids
for toxicology, whether it was blood, urine or vitreous, which
is out of the eye, I determine whether I was
going to order an autopsy. I'd beg and tag. So yes,
(04:39):
I had to be at the scene, and then I
would have to determine the cause of death.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Donna share with us the scariest story that occurred for you.
Let's hear a few of them.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Of the paranormal or death scenes, whatever.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Whatever scaried you the most. We'll get into both.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Okay, well, I think what well, most of the cases
stand out for me. But the very first call, actually
it was I was still under the training of my boss,
who was the elected official. I was hired, but he
(05:22):
was elected. I was a deputy coroner.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
And it was.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
A suicide and it was the first call that I'd
been on, and so when I walked through the door,
he had used a high power rifle powered rifle, and
I don't want to be too graphic, I'm sorry, but
he he didn't have a face anymore, let's put it
(05:47):
that way. And that that was very frightening for me.
I felt like time stood still when I walked through
that door. And I've said this before, and it's just
what comes to my mind. It reminded me of the
opposite of the Wizard, the Wizard of Oz, where everything
was black and white and then you open the doors
and it's all in color. Well, for me, I was
(06:08):
it was all in color until I opened the doors
and went and walked inside that home and they all
were standing waiting for me, the officers the corner, and
everything went black and white, and it was like I
just went into automatic pilot. So I think that that
was the most frightening because I had to he didn't
have a face left, but we had to try. Most
(06:30):
three quarters was gone, but I had to try to
take my hands and push his face together enough to
try to get some idea looking at his his driver's
license and comparing to the body on the floor for
you know, I identification purposes. And that was very frightening
(06:52):
to me. And then I when that case was. When
we finished that, I went home, slept for about three
and I was paged out on a car fatality, So
that was I was like dropped in and you know,
I was off running immediately. Those were frightening for me.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
How fast do people die in a car crash? Almost instantly?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
I have been told that, yes, that they do. And
I've also been told that a person's soul leaves their
body when it's like a fatality, something that's very you know, painful,
that they're gone. Their their soul leaves their body, and
(07:37):
so they don't feel that pain. That's what I've heard.
They may be watching from above, but they don't feel
the pain. And that was something else I was going
to bring up before. I was trying to understand why
these spirits were following me home, and I was told
by the people that I was talking to spiritual people
that a lot of because I was on thesees, that
(08:00):
were unexpected deaths. These people didn't nobody expects to die,
you know, unless you're sick, right, and you know it's
everybody's yeah, right, So they were unexpected deaths and people
the deceitan didn't realize that they were dead or they
didn't know what to do or they weren't ready to go,
(08:20):
and so that's why they kind of hang around the
scene for a little bit or follow me home. This
is what I was told, and.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
I know you're gonna want some the after hearing this.
This is an amazing story.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
We've got Stephen and Malachi Gregory in Nelson, New Zealand.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
I understand that Malachi, who's eight almost nine years old now,
was suffering with not just one or two warts, but
I mean as significant outbreak of warts all over his body,
so significant it impacted his ability to really function.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
Yeah, he was having trouble even holding a pencil to
right e tis book. Actually that they got me thinking about.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
It, I'm not surprised.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
It is an amazing immuno modulator, and so I can
see that it would work.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
And so at what point did you see that there
was actually improvements really going to work.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Well, we really started to notice it around twelve weeks.
You can see these things actually getting smaller and smaller
and then going down to with just little red monks.
The whole things are gone and we're talking about what's
you know, one the size of the warner. I thought,
no way that's gonna wow. It's just been miraculous to
see them get into a pair of shoes.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Yes, how wonderful.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Now share with us the paranormal story.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Okay, so, aside from the high end, the high on
my back actually did not really scare me. It made
me very uncomfortable and I thought, I don't think they're
supposed to touch you, you know. But I was also told
with that one that if they wanted to hurt me,
they would hurt me. They were just trying to get
my attention. But the scariest I've had a lot of scaries.
(10:24):
I went through for about a year, and all of
this is in my second book the I am not
alone all the paranormal that I've been going through, but
I would have spirit that would appear in front of me.
Now I'm not just talking about a dark figure. I'm
talking about an actual usually half the body down to
(10:46):
like maybe well no, maybe to the chest area, that
would appear maybe about four or five feet in front
of me and just be kind of bobbing in the
air like that, staring at me. And I usually would
freeze because it scared the baginiat of me and you yes,
and it was like they were just looking at me
(11:11):
they had with blank stares, dead eyes. It got to
the point where I tried to get myself to calm
down enough that I could say, do you need help,
you need to go to the light, or you know,
you need to cross over? But every single spirit that
(11:33):
would appear in front of me always scared me. And
I also had been dealing with I still am about
a week ago the astrol Spiders have you Are you
familiar with those? The astro spiders them? But interesting though,
(11:54):
before we started here the show, someone was telling me
that they've written books, and she was very familiar with
the spiders and she dealt with the spiders for quite
a while, but I had the first time I was
(12:16):
woken up by or. I woke up and there was
a huge tarantula crawling up the side of my bed.
And I'm in the Midwest, so as far as I know,
there aren't any tranchos in the Midwest. No, and it's scary.
It frightened me so much that I almost hit the
(12:37):
ceiling jumping out of bed, and then quick flicked the
light on and was running around the bed looking for
the spider, And of course I didn't find a spider anywhere,
so I thought, oh, maybe it was a nightmare. But
they have continued to show up occasionally, and they're usually now.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Up on a.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Wall in my bedroom and they'll either come like running
towards me and then they poof disappear, or they'll run
across the ceiling over my head and then they disappear.
And I thought, my god, am I am I dreaming
these spiders? Why am I dreaming about spiders? I don't
(13:17):
watch videos before I go to sleep or movies about spiders.
I don't like spiders. But they kept showing up, and
so I started doing some research and I found some
information on astro spiders and this it was on actually
a social platform. I know, you don't believe everything you see,
(13:37):
but this particular person has about a million or two followers,
and she was saying that there is such a thing.
They're astro spiders, and what they are are beings, and
what they do is they keep an eye on people
that are have the ability, the gifts as they call them, right,
(14:02):
people that can connect with spirit or are able to
I don't talk to the spirits. They just show up
and I see them. But that these I don't know
what they are. I have to do more research, these
beings that are just watching to see where you're at
in life.
Speaker 7 (14:19):
And have you talked to other corners and deputy corners
who have experienced the same bizarre stuff you have?
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (14:31):
You know what's so interesting because I'm thinking to myself.
I was being interviewed after the first book was published.
I was on many interviews all across the US, Overseas, Caribbean, Dubai,
byb you know London. I thought, why why, I know
I'm not the first. There's got to be there's plenty
(14:53):
of others that have talked about it that are in
the death industry or and you know, the medical profession.
And yet once I that book was publish and I
started giving out there more on social media. I had
corners contacting me from across the country saying, oh my god,
yes I have this, this happens all the time. I
(15:14):
had medical professionals, nurses. I've had Morgue attendants share their
stories with me. Even I had a gentlemen a Morgue
attendant out of somewhere out of Great Britain tell me
that they have things flying off the shelves all the time.
Another corner that said that her husband is a police
(15:36):
officer and she's a friend of mine, and so they're
both around death right and they have a spirit that walks.
They have wood floors, wooden floors, and they her husband
has to have the fan on every night because he
can't stand hearing the sound of the footsteps walking down
(15:57):
the hallway to their bedroom. Yeah, every night, usually about
one o'clock in the morning, and then the spirit sits
down on their bed and the bed moves goes down.
And I just said, oh my god, have you thought
about selling the home? And she said, well, we don't
know if it's someone that we've brought home or if
(16:17):
it's one of his ancestors, because the home was from
you know, generations. I don't know if his grandparents owned
the home or prior to them, or his parents, but yeah,
they had. I've had a lot of people, I've had
funeral directors. I think a lot a lot of them
in the industry for a long time didn't want to
(16:40):
talk about it because first off, they don't want to scare.
They don't want to sound like they're you know, not
all there, right right. I mean, in the last how
many years, it's become more common for people around the
world to be speaking out more about spirits and aliens
and reptilians and all of that. So I think people
(17:04):
are more open to sharing things, and it's becoming more
common to talk about it. Maybe not common maybe amongst
just the others that have worked in the industry, but
I'm not the only one.
