This weeks guest is Jennifer Jones. Jennifer says she read a quote that said everyone has at least one weird friend, and if you don't know who it is, it's probably you.  That pretty much sums up her life.  She’s always been a weirdo and proud of it!  When she was about 8 or 9 years old, she saw what she can only describe as your typical shadow person apparition.  From that point on, she was hooked on all things paranormal and creepy. Since 2006 she has been actively investigating and researching the history behind haunted places, urban legends, and high strangeness in general. She started her blog The Dead History in 2012 and since then has written the book The Ghosts of Ogden, Brigham City, and Logan, UT and also recently included in the all-female paranormal journal, The Feminine Macabre.

Hey Everyone! It’s Bridget Marquardt here with a brand new episode of Ghost Magnet! Thank you so much for listening and welcome back!! Todays guest is Dr. Amy Robbins. Dr. Amy Robbins is a clinical psychologist, spiritual intuitive, wellness speaker and host of the hugely successful podcast Life, Death and The Space Between.

Her unique perspective derived from her extensive training in the study of the human psyche—combined with her personal experiences connecting with loved ones who have passed—make for thoughtful, fascinating explorations of this topic.

This weeks guest is Dr. Bruce Greyson.  Dr. Greyson’s interest in near-death experiences began just a few months after graduating from medical school, when he treated an unconscious patient in the emergency room who stunned him the next morning with an account of leaving her body. That event challenged his beliefs about the mind and the brain, and ultimately led him on a journey to study near-death experiences scientifically. I can’t wait to talk to him about his book: After, the Netflix series Surviving Death, the common themes associated with near death experiences and how they change people’s lives and his opinion as to what is causing these life changing anomalies. All this plus Lisa Morton with an all new Ghost Report, this week on Ghost Magnet with Bridget Marquardt. 

Today’s guest on Ghost Magnet with Bridget Marquardt is author Clete Keith.  Clete Keith never had thoughts of writing a book, let alone one on the paranormal. He was not someone totally convinced in the existence of ghosts or spiritual hauntings-until he started working at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills. After twenty-two years and retirement looming, he woke up one night at three o'clock with the idea of writing a book about all the stories he has heard as well as his own experiences. These eyewitness accounts detail supernatural activities and historical narratives connected to the Doheny Estate. Or, what most people like to call, “Greystone Mansion.” His book, Ghosts of Greystone - Beverly Hills is not just a collection of ghost stories, but a landmark exposé of eyewitness accounts detailing supernatural activity associated with this extraordinary location. All this plus Lisa Morton with an all new Ghost Report.     #CleteKeith #GreystoneMansion #GhostsofGreystone
