The Psi Factor radio series, syndicated by CBS Radio Programs to more than 100 stations, became a regular segment on "The Edge of Reality" in 1998. T.E.R. was a weekend 3-hour call-in radio show about the paranormal hosted by Ken Dashow. Written and narrated by Dan Aykroyd, the companion Psi Factor radio series evoked a dark and moody atmosphere much like the stories of Psi Factor. Below is a list of radio stations that carried the show, and a transcript of a clip from the show.
"Psi Factor" announcer: "Psi Factor" chronicles of the paranormal: "Ghost Mummy." Here's Dan Aykroyd.
Dan Aykroyd (taped "Psi Factor" promo spot): For years, stories of a mummy's curse has surrounded the tomb of Tutankhamen. Dozens have died who were involved in the opening of his tomb but science discovered it was bacteria from the crypt; not a curse, that caused the mysterious deaths. Other mummies have curses not so easily explained. In 1899, British diplomat Douglas Murray acquired a mummy in an elaborate coffin from a Cairo street vender. Months later, Murray was found dead of a bullet wound. The mummy was then photographed by a friend of Murray. When the photo was developed, it revealed a face of an Egyptian princess dramatically different from the painting on the coffin. The princess in the photo stared into the lense with a vicious fury. A few days later, the photographer caught pneumonia and died. Also in 1899, famed psychic Madame Blavatsky viewed the mummy. Blavatsky immediately saw an evil aura surrounding the coffin. She begged the owner to rid herself of the mummy. The British Museum happily accepted it. As it was carried into the museum, a moving man stumbled and broke his leg. Under anesthesia he died a few hours later. A curator translated writings on the coffin claiming the mummy was subjected to a special ceremony that allowed its spirit to roam the Earth. That mummy still lies in the British Museum waiting for new visitors. I'm Dan Aykroyd.
