October 31, 2004: Ghost to Ghost 2004

Art Bell opens the annual Ghost to Ghost broadcast on Halloween night by presenting the complete Spiricom recordings, a historic series of two-way voice communications between living researchers and deceased individuals conducted by George Meek and William O'Neill between 1977 and 1982. The audio documents the evolution from barely audible initial contact with a spirit called Doc Nick to sustained conversations with Dr. George Jeffries Mueller, who provided specific technical instructions including circuit modifications down to exact resistor and capacitor values.

Following the Spiricom presentation, Art opens the phone lines for entity attack stories. Callers describe being physically restrained by invisible forces, dragged by the ankles as a child, having covers ripped away, and experiencing bony fingers pressing into flesh. Multiple callers report the shared phenomenon of total paralysis during these encounters, unable to move or scream despite being fully conscious.

A recurring theme emerges across the calls: these attacks often occur in locations with dark histories, including houses built on burial grounds and homes with previous unexplained activity. Several callers describe events witnessed by multiple people simultaneously, lending weight to accounts that might otherwise be dismissed as sleep paralysis or imagination.
