February 14, 2004: Out of Body Experiences - William Buhlman
Podcast: The Art Bell ArchivePublished On: Sat Jul 26 2025
Description: Art Bell opens the program with an impromptu interview of a self-proclaimed vampire named Morgan from Kentucky, who describes his coven of over 50 members, his casket sleeping habits, and plans to be buried alive for three days. Morgan claims thousands of vampires live in major American cities and explains the rituals of blood drinking from willing donors screened for disease.The second half features author and researcher William Buhlman discussing out-of-body experiences. Drawing on a survey of over 16,000 participants from 32 countries, Buhlman describes the common precursors to OBEs, including sleep paralysis, buzzing sounds, and floating sensations. He explains that fear is the primary barrier preventing people from completing the transition out of their physical body, and that once the experience begins, most people find it profoundly enjoyable.Art shares his own spontaneous OBE over the city of Paris and questions Buhlman about the nature of consciousness after death. Buhlman asserts that the universe is a multidimensional continuum, that the dead continue to exist at different vibrational frequencies all around us, and that ghosts are simply energy bodies that have temporarily slowed their vibration enough to be perceived. He encourages listeners to explore self-initiated OBEs rather than relying on belief alone.
