Author Biography

Author Sally Richards had a near death experience at the age of eight. Years later she experienced her second near death experience when she was hit by lightning during a severe storm before Hurricane Katrina. Richards then set out to learn about this phenomena and other paranormal activities. She became a paranormal investigator, searching the globe for haunted locations, amazing stories, and unquestionable evidence. Richards serves as a visiting medium in Lily Dale, NY, during the summer months where she reads gallery-style to hundreds of visitors giving messages from the sacred stump in the forest where mediums have given messages for more than 100 years.
