Apple Originals continues to push the boundaries of storytelling with their new podcast, Extrasensory, narrated by the BAFTA-winning actor, writer, and director Will Sharpe. The gripping new series delves into the strange and mystifying true story of a family whose secrets have left scientists and skeptics alike questioning the nature of life and death.
This eight-episode podcast, set to debut on October 28th, uncovers one of the most captivating mysteries of the 1950s: can death truly be the end, or could it be just the beginning? With Will Sharpe at the helm, listeners will be taken on a chilling journey through one family’s eerie experiences that blur the lines between life, death, and reincarnation.
A Remarkable Prophecy: The Pollock Twins
The story begins in 1950s England with John Pollock, an ordinary milkman, who makes an extraordinary claim. Following the tragic death of his two daughters in a car accident, Pollock prophesies that his daughters will be reborn. Initially, his wife dismisses this as the grief-driven ramblings of a heartbroken father.
However, Pollock’s seemingly outlandish claim begins to take on a new life when his wife gives birth to twin girls. These twins not only bear a striking resemblance to their deceased sisters but also exhibit eerie behaviors and memories that mirror those of the girls who had passed away. The twins’ uncanny similarities to their late siblings shock the Pollock family and catch the attention of the broader scientific community.
The World’s Fascination with Reincarnation
As word of the Pollock twins’ bizarre circumstances spreads, it attracts the attention of an American scientist who becomes deeply invested in the case. Over the course of two decades, this scientist travels back and forth across the Atlantic to study the twins, documenting their behaviors and looking for answers. The case of the Pollock twins raises a fundamental question: is there evidence to support the notion that death is not the end but rather a transition to something beyond?
A Deeper Dive into the Unbelievable
The podcast Extrasensory takes listeners through this perplexing mystery in a way that blends psychological intrigue, historical fact, and deeply personal experiences. The series promises to keep audiences on the edge of their seats, challenging their perceptions of reality as the twists and turns of the story unfold.
