Questions About This Episode
What is Spooked about?
Why, when we’re alone, do we sometimes feel like we’re not? Why are we eager to find signs of life in our surroundings — to see faces in clouds, or to get creeped out when the house creaks at night? Dessa investigates some of the most mystical, disorienting and disturbing experiences a person can have. She discovers that neuroscience, the study of our brains, might just help explain this big, important chunk of being human. Deeply Human is a BBC World Service and American Public Media coproduction with iHeartMedia. Learn more about your ad-choices at
