Curious Explorers

By: Kathy Kelly and Traci Stein
  • Summary

  • What’s haunting the Paranormal Museum in Asbury Park ?
    Are orbs ghostly phenomena or mere camera artifacts?
    Can what we do in the future influence the past?
    How are precognition and retrocausation connected?
    Do the same psychological principles apply to both the living and the dead?
    Did Abraham Lincoln foresee his own death?

    Join historian Kathy Kelly, proprietress of The Paranormal Museum, and psychologist Traci Stein as they explore the evidence for - and against - a paranormal explanation for all things mysterious, historical and most of all - paranormal.

  • Mind Vs. Matter: Energy Healing and More
    Jan 9 2025

    Can our intentions affect matter? Why do words seem to reshape water crystals? Can energy healers make mice live longer or kill cancer cells? And if our thoughts and intentions are powerful, could this be dangerous? In this episode of Curious Explorers, Traci and Kathy dive into some of the science on energy healing in the lab and ponder what that means outside of it.
