Haunting

Hi, Haunting Listeners! Take a listen to the trailer of our show, Ghost Therapy. About the show: Death is unavoidable. While many see it as an unmistakable end to things, some interpret it simply as a transformation of energy into a new phase. Fewer still are able to feel and understand this energy, interpreting it for the rest of us. Paola Pedroza, a certified medium and clairvoyant, is one of those few. In Ghost Therapy, Paola brings emotional healing to her renowned guests by channeling the voices of those on the other side.
