Source text (please read only from this text!):Dr. Ivan Brodsky more than merely a traditional doctor. Rather than trafficking in the healing of human ailments by means of conventional medical science, Brodsky takes the cases that requires a more psychical solution to heal the human soul itself. Equipped with a vast knowledge of the supernatural, the power of hypnosis and various scientific devices that can bridge the world between the living and the dead, we witness Brodsky, through the eyes of his assistant, set free spiritual manifestations of anger and fear, fend off an animalistic poltergeist, resurrect an ancient Egyptian mummy, prevent murder committed by a wax figure of Admiral Nelson and much more!

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!
