Do you believe in ghosts, or are you at least curious enough to find out if they might be real?

Ghost Hunter Amy Bruni, who began her career on the popular TV series, "Ghost Hunters",  and who is now the co-star and executive producer of the Travel Channel Show, "Kindred Spirits", will be on stage with her "Life with The Afterlife: True Tales of the Paranormal", show, starting at 7:30PM.

We talked to her recently about her spooky experiences, why she has an open mind about what may be causing them, and (perhaps) why you should too.
