Summary
Ed and Lorraine Warren are arguably the most famous paranormal investigators of the last century. The married couple investigated countless hauntings, possessions, and demon infestations. Many of which have become Hollywood fodder inspiring movies like The Conjuring and Annabelle. But away from the glitz and glamour, were the Warrens for real? Are these divisive investigators true spiritual detectives, fighting the good fight for those of us too blind to the truth to see? Or did they make a career out of the gullibility and trust of countless tortured souls. We dive headfirst into the protoplasm and investigate the Warrens this week. Plus, Conspiracy Bot learns the difference between right and wrong, in related news he exclusively chooses wrong, and we learn the price of his soul (it’s beer). All of that and more on the podcast that’s never seen a demon, but that doesn’t mean we wouldn’t want to keep Constantine around just in case – Hysteria 51.

| 0:35.0 | Whether they were born with a gift, experienced a traumatic event, or something more. |
| 0:40.2 | These souls profess to be just a little closer to the edge of the thin veil of reality. |
| 0:46.0 | Some certainly believe their own claims, others are mere hucksters and charlatans, |
| 0:50.0 | and no matter the truth, some transcend their knowledge and are able to enter the cultural zeitgeist based on their claims. |
| 0:56.0 | The epitome of this is tonight's subject, Ed and Lorraine Warren. |
