Welcome to Otherworld. I'm your host, Jack Wagner. This story comes from a woman named Alexandra, and it takes place not too far from where we record this podcast here in Los Angeles.

I grew up in Georgia, which is part of the Bible Belt. There's religion everywhere. There's a church on, like, every block. And my mom actually worked for a Southern Baptist church when I was a kid. But my family is not necessarily a—we just don't talk about our beliefs. In terms of the paranormal, I feel like I always believed in something.
And when I was a kid, it was definitely more of kind of a fear-based belief. There is this weird thing with the women on my mom's side of the family where we're all sort of connected in this unexplainable way. My mom, even now, she's still in Georgia. And I'll sometimes just get a text from her. I think a lot of people actually have this experience with mothers. Specifically, I've heard. But...
