According to Joenickell.com, "I have been called "the modern Sherlock Holmes," the "real-life Scully" (from the X-Files), and other appellations. I am well into my fourth decade as an investigator of historical, paranormal, and forensic mysteries, myths and hoaxes. In contrast to mystery-mongerers on the one hand and so-called debunkers on the other, I believe that mysteries should actually be investigated with a view toward solving them." (https://www.joenickell.com/) Joe was a brilliant paranormal investigator whom recently left this world. We look at some of his cases including Jack the Ripper, The Shroud of Turin, and The Mackenzie House hauntings. Joining us this week is close personal friend of the podcast, Pat from Ghostly Podcast.
