In 1870s Illinois, a young girl named Lurancy Vennum fell into strange trances—only to emerge claiming she was someone else: Mary Roff, a teenager who had died 12 years prior. In this episode of The Shadow Frequency, host Matt Wilson investigates one of America’s most haunting and well-documented cases of spiritual possession. Was it grief, mental illness… or something truly otherworldly? Step into the shadows of Watseka, where the veil between life and death may have briefly lifted.
