Most people who are avid fans of horror films have a high chance of knowing who Lorraine Warren, ‘Queen of the Paranormal’, was. Movie franchises like “The Conjuring” and “The Amityville Horror” were inspired by Lorraine and her husband, Ed, who passed away in 2006. Lorraine died in her sleep just recently on April 18th at 92 years old. Claiming to have investigated over 10,000 cases during their career, the two world-renowned paranormal investigators were best known for their involvement with prominent cases of hauntings. Both Lorraine and Ed were self-professed demonologists and Lorraine also was self-proclaimed to be a clairvoyant, which is someone who has the alleged ability to gain information about an object, person, location or physical event through extrasensory perception. In 1952, the Warrens founded the New England Society for Psychic Research, which is the oldest ghost hunting group in New England.
With the recent airing of Hulu’s “The Act,” a murder case from 2015 has resurfaced and has many people highly interested in the complex details surrounding the intentions behind the convicted killers. The television show, which is an anthology series based on real events, premiered on March 20th of this year.
Music festivals, raves and EDM (electronic dance music) concerts have become increasingly popular throughout the recent years, with the use of drugs accompanying many of the so-called “ravers.” The misuse of these drugs, with the most common one known as MDMA (methylenedioxymethamphetamine), Molly or Ecstacy, can cause serious health complications and possibly lead to death when someone takes more than a usual dosage.
