The Entity vs. Doris Bither: The True Paranormal Case That UCLA Investigated

from The Fear Archive · host Violet Hour Media

The Fear Archive investigates the haunting of Doris Bither — the real paranormal case that UCLA researchers took seriously enough to document — and the 1982 film The Entity that dramatized it. Doris Bither was a single mother living in Culver City, California, who reported being physically attacked by an unseen entity. She was bruised. Her children witnessed the disturbances. And when parapsychology researchers Barry Taff and Kerry Gaynor investigated, they documented phenomena they could not explain — including a luminous form that appeared in her living room. Whether you believe in the paranormal or not, this case resists easy dismissal. Tonight Amanda and Mike examine why. Hosted by Amanda Kagiwada and Michael Ryan Assip. Executive produced by Cassie Jozefov. A Violet Hour Media production.
