Episode 12: Caretakers

Otherworld
About this episode

This week features two different stories from people who believe they had something otherworldly protecting them as children. 

The first story comes from twins Seth and Kendra. They emailed me insisting that until they were about 5 or 6 years old, they were able to float down the stairs instead of walk. They insist this is a power that they possessed and as soon as they moved to a new house, they were no longer able to do it. They also have a very specific theory as to what helped them do this.


The second story comes from Rae who was woken up one night by the man she knew as her grandfather, and two strange men she did not recognize. 

If you liked the show, please share it with your friends and leave us a 5 star review. (please do it because its actually working and helping a lot)
