About this episode

The episode explores a lifetime of paranormal experiences starting from a mysterious light seen by a child, leading to encounters with shadow figures and an abandoned doll.

A mysterious beam of white light appears in broad daylight when a seven-year-old child is home alone. Years later, that unexplained moment becomes only the first chapter in a lifetime filled with shadow figures, haunted homes, disappearing objects, electronic voice phenomena, and a terrifying experience involving an abandoned doll that led to a desperate attempt at an exorcism. Could these events all be connected, or is it simply a lifetime of impossible coincidences? You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month. Cancel anytime.
