    23. Real Estate Ghost Story: When the House You Buy isn't Completely Empty

    When selling a home means calling both a realtor and a ghost hunter — you know it’s not your average real estate story. In this eerie episode, Columbus, Ohio realtor Kyle Edwards shares a shocking firsthand account of a haunted house listing that may not have been completely empty after all. Kyle opens up about the legal and ethical gray areas around disclosing deaths, suicides, and paranormal activity in real estate—issues every homebuyer and real estate agent should understand. Then, professional medium and spiritual cleanser Cindy Riggs steps in to reveal how she removes negative energy, banishes spirits, and protects homes from future hauntings.

    20. True Crime vs. The Supernatural: Can John Edward Really Solve Cases?

    Join host Greg Hansberry on The Empty Coffin podcast as we plunge into one of true crime's most captivating and controversial debates: True Crime vs. The Supernatural.

World-renowned medium John Edward joins to discuss his new book Chasing Evil and reveals how his alleged abilities intersected with real cases—including the Annie Lee disappearance and even the Michael Vick scandal—alongside a skeptical FBI agent. But not everyone is buying it. Courtney Armstrong and Baudi Moovan of True Crime Tonight bring hard data and tough questions, while Theresa Caputo (The Long Island Medium) offers her own take on whether the supernatural belongs in police work.
