A hot topic right now is the ethics of AI generated images and audio. What these programs are able to mimic can be scarily accurate. But this type of trickery has been going on for a long time…by spirits. People all over the world have been reporting seeing or hearing family or friends in places they actually weren’t. Spirits have already been doing what we fear AI will do in the future. So for this week’s bonus episode, I wanted to share true stories from real people who have been targets of a spirit mimicking someone they knew, just to show you how common this phenomenon is.  [This episode originally aired on July 9, 2024] Ch 1: The Wolf, submitted by Kenzi.

The show is still on a break. In the meantime, here is another edition of Paranormal Pinays, the weekly livestream that I do with Lyn Pacificar and Rannie AuGoGo, where we casually discuss everything paranormal and supernatural from our perspectives as magickal Bisaya women. This livestream was recorded back in November of last year after the election, and we thought it would be a good idea to talk about spiritual protection.  We discuss protective amulets, our ancestral markings, the demons that wander throughout Las Vegas, and much more. For some reason the internet was really bad that day, so the audio is a bit choppy, so apologies for that.

LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISED. In this episode, I speak with the human witch Janelle Lassalle (and the demon Lilith) about her book based on her real life paranormal experiences, how demons helped medically diagnose what doctors could not, how Lucifer saved her from a Tinder date gone bad, what’s really behind the fear of demonic possession, and so much more. --- HOLY FUCKING SHIT is a paranormal thriller based on the true story of Janelle's attempt to break a demonic family curse that began when her father kidnapped the CEO of Adobe in 1992. It tells the tale of 'Jennifer Albukhari', a researcher who can no longer ignore her sneaking suspicion that magick—and demons—are real. Janelle Lassalle is an author, artist, actress and model based in Los Angeles County, CA. She holds a BA in English from UC Berkeley and has been creating content for over 10 years, with bylines in a number of top-tier publications including VICE, Rolling Stone and Forbes. Lassalle is also the author of The Ketamine Handbook A Beginner's Guide to Ketamine-Assisted Therapy for Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, PTSD, and More, a nonfiction work distributed by Simon & Schuster.
