Jonathan Phoinex

Author/ Podcaster

I'm Jonathan Phoinex, author of Through The Flames and Red Coats, as well as your host. I grew up in Georgetown, South Carolina where it seemed impossible to throw a rock without being near some site of paranormal significance. As a youth I would listen to the tour guides as they passsed places where my friends and I played and hear them tell stories about ghost of soldiers, pirates, forlorn lovers and even graveyard caretakers. It was only natural I would develop a love for for storytelling and the paranormal. I honed my craft by entertaining my children, my nieces and their friends by sitting next to the fire at night and sharing with them those same stories. Now I share those stories with you, and sometimes with my friends who also work in the paranormal world.
