Full Episode
Welcome to Otherworld. I'm your host, Jack Wagner. This episode is about somebody who believes they may have come face-to-face with death itself. Not a near-death experience in the way that it normally comes up on the show. This is an encounter with the personification of death, the Grim Reaper, also known as the Angel of Death.
The Grim Reaper has got to be one of the most famous figures in the scary universe. These days, I feel like you're most likely to see the Grim Reaper pop up as a decal on the back of a truck, maybe as a tattoo or printed on a giant t-shirt, perhaps even on some kind of very aggressive Facebook meme one of your uncles might share.
However, the origins of what we know as the Grim Reaper date back very far into history. Most cultures and religions have some sort of similar deity who carries out God's will by taking lives and serving as a sort of bridge between our world and the next. And even though the Grim Reaper we know of now is visually kind of a creation of pop culture.
Over the years, I have heard of many people encountering a cloaked black figure that appears near the end of someone's life. Often, this is something seen by people who work in hospitals or in places where lives tend to come to an end.
So whether this being is a literal entity slipping between worlds and reaping souls, or just a manifestation of a very well-known symbol of death, I'm not really sure. But this episode features two people who had experiences involving it. And hopefully we end up getting even more stories about this topic submitted in the future. This first story comes from Alexis. This is episode 120.
The title is The Final Visitor. And you're listening to Otherworld. Hello? Is this Bobby? Yes, it is. At its core, the science, you can't argue with. A story about all the science.
Up in the sky.
It's almost frustrating that it's happening. I'm going to die. His limbs were just like, wrong.
Everybody moves back into the light, even if it takes them a minute.
