Curious Explorers
What’s haunting the Paranormal Museum in Asbury Park ? Are orbs ghostly phenomena or mere camera artifacts? Can what we do in the future influence the past? How are precognition and retrocausation connected? Do the same psychological principles apply to both the living and the dead? Did Abraham Lincoln foresee his own death? Join historian Kathy Kelly, proprietress of The Paranormal Museum, and psychologist Traci Stein as they explore the evidence for - and against - a paranormal explanation for all things mysterious, historical and most of all - paranormal.
