Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 134 Author Anna Maria Manalo

On today’s show, author and investigator Anna Marie Manalo joins me to discuss her re-released and updated book, Portal: A Lifetime of Paranormal Experiences.

Anna has been a supporter of the show, so it was lovely to have her back on to discuss Portal on Mysteries and Monsters.

Portal is a book of two parts, the first focuses on a family in the Philippines who have become the unwitting tether to something malignant that has stayed with them for the best part of 70 years.

Anna discusses how these series events could have begun, some of the incidents that have occurred and how they have learnt to deal with it over time. 

The second half of the book focuses on some of the interviews and cases Anna has investigated around the world and the people effected by strange phenomena. We look at the case of a strange Tulpa plaguing a woman, a popcorn loving Bigfoot, a strange encounter in rural France and a haunting performance witnessed in Nice. 

Thank you to Anna for joining me this week.
