224. YVETTE AND KARL TALK: Violent Paranormal Encounters
38:39||Season 1, Ep. 224This week on Paranormal Activity, Yvette is joined once again by her partner in paranormal crime, the brilliant and unshakable Karl Beattie, for an episode that dives into the darker, more dangerous side of ghost hunting.Across decades of investigations, Yvette and Karl have faced some of the most intense hauntings imaginable… but there are moments that still stand out.Moments where an unseen force becomes physical.From the sudden scratch down the back, to that unmistakable shove, to nights when the air turns hostile and the energy in the room feels like it wants you out — or worse.Together, they revisit the violent encounters that left them breathless, shaken, and questioning what exactly lurks in the shadows:What makes a spirit lash out?Are these entities angry, confused, territorial… or something far darker?And why do certain locations seem to amplify aggression?Yvette and Karl share their real-life experiences: the injuries, the moments of terror, and the instances that still make them shudder today.They also explore the emotional and energetic triggers that might spark a violent haunting and what investigators can do when a spirit decides to fight back.Turn off the lights, settle in… and prepare yourself.This is the episode where the paranormal isn’t just heard or seen, it hits.A Create Podcast
