    Episode 11 - Stella Lansing

    Episode 11 - Stella Lansing

    Silent film producing audio when converted to a digital format, disembodied arms attached to an nondescript object, lesions appearing in photos that aren't actually on the subject, clock-like patterns that stretch between frames of film and photo, and occupants from another world trapped between the frames of footage of orbs of light dancing around each other... Stella Lansing experienced many strange things in her lifetime and was wise enough to try and document every occurrence through photo and film that she could. While Stella Lansing hasn't been heavily researched, we do have a small window of details into her findings thanks to the 90's TV series "Sightings" and various works published by Psychiatrist and UFO / paranormal enthusiast Berthold E. Schwarz. Listen in as we discuss these wonderful documentations by a Massachusetts nurse turned house wife.
