What’s the deal with orbs? Are they evidence of ghosts or other paranormal phenomena? Or nothing more than photographic anomalies caused by dust, moisture, pollen or (eww!) insects? Join historian Kathy Kelly and psychologist Traci Stein as they chat about the history of orbs and debate whether orbs might ever be evidence of something paranormal and more.

To see some orbs we’ve caught on camera, check out the video of this episode on our YouTube channel: @CuriousExplorersShow.

In this first episode of Curious Explorers, veteran paranormalist and historian Kathy Kelly and psychologist Traci Stein discuss and debate, is the house next door to the infamous site of the “Manson Family” murders haunted by the victims? Or is something else going on there?

Does trauma make it more likely that spirits will haunt a site?

Can ghosts haunt two or more sites at the same time?

Does a person’s psychology survive death?

Are spirits bound by any particular rules or laws about where they can go?

Background:

On August 9, 1969, Charles Manson’s followers brutally murdered actress Sharon Tate and four others (Jay Sebring, Abigail Folger, Wojciech Frykowski, and Steve Parent) in a house on Cielo Drive in Los Angeles.

That house was subsequently torn down, but another house was later built on the lot next door. This house has reportedly been the site of numerous incidents of ghostly phenomena, including unnerving EVPs (electronic voice phenomena), objects moving on their own, light anomalies, unexplained temperature swings, and more.

The house in question has also been investigated by a number of paranormal groups, including those featured on TV shows like “Ghost Hunters” and “Ghost Adventures.”
