This episode the after life is giving Michigan a run for it's money... we’re diving straight into the deep (and occasionally demonic) end of near-death experiences—because sometimes the tunnel doesn’t lead to a warm, loving light… it leads to shrieking shadows, bottomless voids, and the occasional hellish pit stop.
In this episode, we crack open the lesser-known vault of distressing NDEs. Forget the peaceful reunions and celestial symphonies—this is the stuff of spiritual horror films, only reported by real people, across cultures and beliefs. From spinning in cosmic isolation to encountering grotesque, moaning beings in fireless hellscapes, we explore accounts that are less “angel choir” and more “existential scream therapy.” We’re talking voids of nothingness, judgmental tunnels, malevolent guides, and terrifying “life reviews” that make your worst performance review look like a gold star day at kindergarten.
But don’t panic—well, maybe panic a little—because we’re not here to assign cosmic demerits. The unsettling takeaway? These dark journeys don’t discriminate. Saints, skeptics, felons, moms in labor, lightning strike survivors… no one’s off limits when it comes to the mysterious rules of the afterlife roulette. So strap in as we explore how terrifying NDEs challenge our assumptions about death, morality, and whether you really want to “go toward the light.”
Don’t forget if you like what you hear, show us some love and like, share and follow!
