Going as far back as the 19th century, electronic devices have been used in an attempt to contact the astral realms, or allow the astral realms to talk to us. Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla suggested that communication with the dead might be possible using electronics. Ghost hunters have popularized using digital recorders in order to capture EVPs (electronic voice phenomena). But this was being done decades ago when people such as Konstantin Raudive and Fredrich Juergenson began to hear unexplained voices recorded on blank audio tapes.
There have also been cases where people have received strange telephone calls, text messages, emails and radio broadcasts claiming to be messages from dead loved ones. There is even the story about a haunted cable TV box. This week on Exploring the Bizarre, William J. Hall and Jimmy "Mr Haunted" Petonito will discuss their new book "Phantom Messages" and attempt to unravel the mysterious world of impossible communications.
