Angels Among Us: Reunion

Written by: Cindy Carter and Tim Freeny
Case Filed: 3/21/02 - Jackson, Mississippi
Executive Producer: Rick Garner


"I'm going to hug your neck," said Scott Watkins, when he met Sarah Haller. This reunion comes almost two months after Sarah was hit by a car on I-55 South.

She was involved in a fender-bender, and had stepped out of her car when another car struck her from behind. Scott Watkins saw the whole thing.


"I saw a black Toyota lost control and hit her and thrown her 30 feet in the air. You looked like a rag doll. I knew without a shadow of a doubt that you would not be here without the Lord's intervention," said Watkins to Sarah.

Scott called 911 and began to pray.

He says he also called his wife, asked her to pray and call anyone she could think of and get them to pray as well. Scott then pulled over and prayed over Sarah.

"I was really comforted by it. It really re-emphasized why I was still alive," says Haller. Sarah went on to say, during that time, all voices around her melted away, except one. When Sarah was laying on the ground, the only sound she could hear was the voice of Scott praying over her. The fact that Sarah could only hear his voice isn't the only thing that amazes Scott.

Scott wondered what happened to Sarah. On February 27th, just before going to bed, Scott and his wife tuned in to our newscast to watch NEWSCHANNEL 12's Unexplained report, "Angels Among Us."

"We just fell off our bed and the spirit of God hovered in our room and we got on our knees and began to pray," said Watkins. Scott contacted us and we arranged for this reunion. Scott says he was reluctant at first to come forward because he didn't want to discourage anyone's belief in angels. However, he says prayer is also a miracle and through prayer God moved him into action, and prayer prevented Sarah from being seriously injured.

"From prayer, I know the Lord reached down and touched her," said Watkins.
"I wanted to believe I had been touched by an angel, but I was even more excited about meeting him," said Haller. Sarah and Scott say they still believe in angels.

The Bible defines angels as being either divine agents or human. Sarah says at that crucial moment, Scott truly was her angel.

"(The Bible) says God will send His angels and it also says He will equip us to do his work," adds Haller.

So, this mystery shifts a bit from "who" prayed over Sarah, to the power of prayer itself. Sarah prayed for help, she received it. Scott prayed Sarah's injuries wouldn't be serious. They weren't. What do you believe?

Unexplained Cases | Baltimore Street Murder House

Written by:  Darren Dedo Case Filed:  06 /20/19 - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Executive Producer:  Rick Garner Battlefields, homes, pubs, and restaurants. Almost anywhere you go in Gettysburg you will come across a place that is supposedly haunted. It is very easy to understand why. Tens of thousands of men lost their lives here in this small Pennsylvania town in July of 1863. We visited one unassuming and haunted location that was here during the Battle of Gettysburg and was a casualty collection point just like many buildings were used for back then. It would make sense that the spirit who sets off ghost hunting gadgets in this Baltimore Street home fought and died in the Civil War. But, this resident spirit has no connection to the Battle of Gettysburg. Our guide for the evening, P aranormal Investigator Robert "Night Monkey" Simmons  with Gettysburg Paranormal Association / Gettysburg Ghost  Tours . He  shares with everyone the details.  “The morning of August 31, 198

Unexplained Cases | Forever Home of the Abandoned and Forgotten: Forest Haven

Written by:  Rick Garner Case Filed: 10/1/21 Executive Producer:  Rick Garner   When one hears the word “asylum” … especially when paired with “haunted” or “abandoned” … dreadful images come to mind of decaying buildings, sinister hallways, and forgotten lives. Forest Haven in Laurel, Maryland, has all of these and much more. Walking these grounds, Rick Garner felt a similar sadness...the kind he felt at Pennhurst but perhaps something more...something darker. The facility opened in 1925 as the District Training School for the Mentally Retarded. It was a farm-like institution designed to provide patients with useful skills. In 1928, the first of many on-ground burials occurred. In 1963, the property was named Forest Haven but during that decade, the property would begin its decline. Funding was cut, the population of residents grew to include people with epilepsy, but the worst happened in 1974 when a nearby orphanage called “Junior Village” closed and its 20 souls were moved into F

Haunted M's of Philly: Morton Morton House | Unexplained Cases (2022)

Written by:  Darren Dedo Case Filed: 10/31/22 Executive Producer:  Rick Garner   Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: the birthplace of America. Home to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall - where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were signed. So much history and some say a lot of ghosts. The Unexplained Cases team traveled to the City of Brotherly Love, to investigate several paranormal hotspots known to be haunted by the spirits from the Revolutionary War…of famous business owners and politicians…some really crazy dressed apparitions…and possibly a pirate, too! In our third of three investigations, not a lot of places have a word in their name twice but the Morton Morton House in Norwood, Pennsylvania - just outside of Philly - isn’t like most places. This building was constructed way back in 1750 by Morton Morton. Yes, that is his name. He was the great grandson of Marten Martenson. Morton Morton was the first cousin to John Morton, one of the signers of the Declarat
