Maxim Furek is a paranormal author with a background in rock journalism and psychology. He has appeared on well known programs like Paranormal 60 with Dave Schrader and Midnight in the Desert with Heather Wade and is also a respected contributor to Fate Magazine, Normal Paranormal and Paranormal Underground. 

He has researched and written extensively about the 1963 Sheppton Mining Disaster, where 3 miners were trapped 300 feet below the surface following a collapse. Only two of the men would be rescued. They would tell a very strange story about their time in the mine that included encounters with spiritual beings, out of body experiences and a staircase to another world.

Today we discuss this case, as well as a few other examples of the weird and highly strange connections and phenomena included in his book, Coal Region Hoodoo.
