Art Bell hosts the annual Ghost to Ghost program, opening the lines to listeners for Halloween. Broadcasting from Manila, he reads emailed accounts before the calls begin, including a woman who saw the ghost of a wreck victim walking up a highway off-ramp and a man who encountered a legless apparition floating across a road near an old church graveyard.
Callers deliver firsthand encounters throughout the night. A man in Miami describes being summoned by a Ouija board at a party, only to learn his father died at that exact hour. A woman in Reno recounts watching a solid male ghost enter her apartment, use the phone, and eat a banana before discovering he had no hands or feet. A paramedic from Cincinnati tells of responding to a suicide in 1981, then meeting the new homeowner twenty years later who says the dead man's ghost insists he was murdered.
Other stories feature shadow entities in a former hospital room, a basement where every circuit breaker was flipped off by unseen hands, and a man trapped inside a standing cell at Auschwitz whose wooden door latched shut with nobody present. Art reflects on what these accounts suggest about existence after death.
