Bright Lights Beyond: The Grave Episode #9 - Not Quite Crossed Over

Welcome back to Bright Lights Beyond...THE GRAVE! Season 2 episode 3 is finally here and so is the quiz... not!

In this episode, Lexie and Marina talk "ghosts" and all things in-between! Now that we've learned about burial rituals and shared death experiences it's time to take the next step and learn a little about what happens when you're not quite ready to cross over to the other side!

Mentioned throughout out Gaelic, Celtic, and Irish folklore banshees are female spirits who herald death through their screaming, shrieking, and wailing. It's said that whoever hears the banshees cry is met by death soon thereafter... but after some digging around their might be another reason banshees comes to some and much a like a Celtic knot... there are strong family TIES!

Yurei are the Japanese folklore equivalent to the western ideal of ghosts. Often depicted as floating, feet-less, and wearing a ghostly white kimonos; Yurei are said to take whichever shape they were in once they met their untimely death. Barred from reaching the afterlife until they are freed from whatever curse was put not them, Yurei are said to drain the energy of the mortals around wherever they haunt! If you're a Yurei you might be in luck because family member can help preform rituals to free you from you're halfway state and send you on your way to the Shinto heaven: ame!

Caught between our world and the afterlife, ghosts are pretty much a staple in American society. Whether it's Casper or Bruce Willis in that very famous M. Night Shyamalan movie... sometimes other can "see dead people"! And after our brief history of different cultures "caught-betweens" I think we're ready for our own ghost story! Next episode we'll be talking with someone who has a real life ghost encounter... and we can't wait!
