    Paranormal Pinays: Pet stories!

    The show returns from break NEXT WEEK, so here is another bonus episode from the weekly Paranormal Pinays livestream that I do with Lyn Pacificar and Rannie Augogo, where we discuss the paranormal and supernatural from our perspectives as magickal Bisaya women. 

    This episode was filmed on National Love Your Pet Day, so we shared stories of our pets on the other side, and even how our pets help us magickally in this physical realm. We also touch on starseeds and aliens. 

    This episode is not censored, and we do talk about pet death, so listener discretion is advised.

    Paranormal Pinays: Spiritual Protection, and much more

    The show is still on a break. In the meantime, here is another edition of Paranormal Pinays, the weekly livestream that I do with Lyn Pacificar and Rannie AuGoGo, where we casually discuss everything paranormal and supernatural from our perspectives as magickal Bisaya women. This livestream was recorded back in November of last year after the election, and we thought it would be a good idea to talk about spiritual protection

    We discuss protective amulets, our ancestral markings, the demons that wander throughout Las Vegas, and much more.

    For some reason the internet was really bad that day, so the audio is a bit choppy, so apologies for that.

    Paranormal Pinays: Exorcisms, and more

    This episode is NOT censored, and brushes on topics like sexual abuse, so listener discretion is advised. 

    This week’s bonus episode is from a weekly livestream that I do with my friends Lyn Pacificar and Rannie Augogo. We call ourselves Paranormal Pinays, and we casually discuss the paranormal and supernatural from our perspectives as magickal Bisaya women.

    This episode was recorded back on Halloween last year, and as usual we started with a topic, in this case sharing spooky stories, and then let the conversation evolve from there. We get into exorcisms, our gripes with the Catholic church, and much more.

    Stories with Janelle the Witch & Lilith the Demon

    LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISED. In this episode, I speak with the human witch Janelle Lassalle (and the demon Lilith) about her book based on her real life paranormal experiences, how demons helped medically diagnose what doctors could not, how Lucifer saved her from a Tinder date gone bad, what’s really behind the fear of demonic possession, and so much more.

    ---

    HOLY FUCKING SHIT is a paranormal thriller based on the true story of Janelle's attempt to break a demonic family curse that began when her father kidnapped the CEO of Adobe in 1992. It tells the tale of 'Jennifer Albukhari', a researcher who can no longer ignore her sneaking suspicion that magick—and demons—are real.


    Janelle Lassalle is an author, artist, actress and model based in Los Angeles County, CA. She holds a BA in English from UC Berkeley and has been creating content for over 10 years, with bylines in a number of top-tier publications including VICERolling Stone and Forbes. Lassalle is also the author of The Ketamine Handbook A Beginner's Guide to Ketamine-Assisted Therapy for Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, PTSD, and More, a nonfiction work distributed by Simon & Schuster. Learn more about her work by visiting her website here, or view her Instagram @jenkhari.

    Her family of literal superheroes, including her cousin who walked through the Great Wall,

    The house that no one was buying because it was so packed with stubborn spirits,

    A woman whose house spirits wouldn’t allow her to open windows in the summer,

    And so much more.
