224 - An Interview with Jaci and Bill Kousoulas

Meet Jaci and Bill Kousoulas paranormal investigators, mothman enthusiasts, and researchers. Jaci and Bill Kousoulas are the founders of Phenomenology Research Professionals (PRP), a research team dedicated to exploring the intersections of psychology, spirituality, and the paranormal through rigorous qualitative methods. They are the authors of Bridging the Tragedy, a psychological study examining the 1967 Silver Bridge Disaster in Point Pleasant, WV, the Mothman narrative, and the phenomenon of post‑traumatic growth (PTG). Their work highlights how individuals transform trauma into meaning, resilience, and personal evolution.

On March 1, 2024, they launched their next major study, Transcending the Darkness, which investigates the relationship between trauma and paranormal experiences. As with Bridging the Tragedy, the project focuses on the positive outcomes participants report after these events. Interviewees include Gary Osborn (The Rendlesham Enigma), Rev. Michael Carter (Ancient Aliens), Dr. Dean Bertram (director of The Man Who Invented Flying Saucers), and additional experiencers and researchers.

Bill and Jaci live in Sycamore, Illinois—sixty miles northwest of Chicago - but surrounded more by cornfields than skyscrapers.
