Welcome heathens welcome to the world of the weird and unexplained. I’m your host, Nicole Delacroix and together, we will be investigating stories about the weird, wonderful, unexplained, eerie, scary and down-right unbelievable. There will be tales of ghosts, murder, supernatural beings and unexplained mysteries. So, sit back, grab your favorite drink, relax and prepare to be transported to today's dark Enigma....

And on today’s Dark enigma we’re going to be taking a bit of a turn from our normal excursions and today we’re going to discuss a topic that has always sparked my interest and I hope it sparks yours: Near Death Experiences! There is a new movie coming out that is deep into this subject and more than one of our listeners asked me to do an episode on this subject, so majority rules. As always, we will be playing our drinking game but only for those of you that are at home and have nowhere else to go tonight. So this is such a dark and deep subject so I decided to lighten it up by using some Walking Dead themed cocktails, there’s a link here. Now on to the business end of this deal… every time I say near death is a single shot and every time I say Heaven or Hell, that’s a double shot. Now that we have the business end out of the way we can jump headfirst into today’s dark enigma…

The mystery of death haunts the living, but real understanding of it has always proved elusive. Researchers say new studies of people who have come close to death have provided insights into the nature of death and show it may be less painful, less frightening and more peaceful than it is generally conceived to be. These conjectures are derived from near-death experiences of people who came close to death or were revived from a state of clinical death, usually after a painful accident or illness.
