In 2009, at just four years old, Ryan Hammons began recalling a past life in Hollywood, detailing a house on a street with “Rock” in its name, three sons, and a friend named “Senator Fives.” His mother, Cyndi, intrigued by his revelations, discovered through a book that Ryan accurately identified George Raft and himself in old Hollywood photos. Verification by a UVA Medical Center psychiatrist linked Ryan’s memories to Martin Martyn, a Hollywood agent who lived on North Roxbury Drive and met New York Senator Irving Ives. After meeting Martyn’s daughter, Ryan lost interest in his Hollywood memories, a phenomenon the psychiatrist attributed to reincarnated children gaining closure when they realize people from their past have moved on.
A Chicago Fire Victim Was Reincarnated As A Five-Year-Old Boy
Initially dismissing her five-year-old son Luke’s peculiar habit of calling objects “Pam” and his claims of having been a girl, Erica Ruehlman’s curiosity led her to ask about Pam. Luke revealed, “I was Pam, but I died, went to heaven, saw God, and then God pushed me back down. When I woke up, I was a baby, and you named me Luke.” Pressed for more details, Luke described living in Chicago, taking trains, and dying in a fire, illustrating a hand motion of someone jumping out a window.
Upon searching online, Erica found a news story about a 1993 fire at the Paxton Hotel in Chicago where 19 people died, including a woman named Pam Robinson who jumped out a window. Despite Luke never having been to Chicago and Erica never discussing it with him, the details led her to believe that Luke’s story of Pam Robinson was more than just a haunting coincidence.

A Midwestern Toddler Recalls Writing Gone With The Wind
From age two, a Midwestern child named Lee insisted on having another house and mommy. By three, he claimed a birthday of June 26 instead of his actual June 21, asserting his middle name was Coe, he wrote movies, and had a daughter named Jennifer. When asked about his age at death, he confidently stated, “Forty-eight.”
Lee’s parents, intrigued, mentioned movie titles, with Lee enthusiastically claiming to have written Gone With the Wind. A Google search revealed the film’s actual writer, Sidney Coe Howard, born on June 26, with a daughter named Jennifer, and passing away at the age of forty-eight. As Lee’s parents were unaware of these details, the mysterious knowledge suggests the possibility of reincarnation.

A Reincarnated Murder Victim Returned To Confront His Killer
In the 1950s, while pregnant, Karanfil Tutusmus of Turkey dreamt of a man named Selim Fesli with a bloody face. Her son, Semih Tutusmus, upon speaking, insisted he was the reincarnation of Fesli and claimed to have been murdered by a neighbor. At four years old, Semih visited Fesli’s village, recounted their life details to Fesli’s widow, and asserted he was killed in an argument over Fesli’s mule grazing in a neighbor’s field—details somewhat corroborated by Fesli’s actual murder, which the neighbor argued was a hunting accident.
Throughout his life, Semih visited Fesli’s village, occasionally throwing stones at his murderer. Despite his anger, Semih refrained from more violent retaliation, fearing the perpetuation of a cycle of murder across multiple lifetimes.

A Six Year Old Claimed To Be The Reincarnation Of Nearby Family Man
At one-and-a-half years old, Nazih Al-Danaf of Lebanon surprised his parents by declaring, “I am not small, I am big,” and claiming ownership of weapons, including grenades, in a nearby village. As he grew older, Al-Danaf persistently requested to visit his old home in Qaberchamoun, about 10 miles away. At six, his parents granted the request, and Al-Danaf identified Najdiyah Khaddage’s home. Conversing with Khaddage, he accurately recalled details of her life, including the builder of their home’s foundation, an incident of her dislocated shoulder, and their daughter’s illness from ingesting medicine.
Even more remarkable, when Al-Danaf entered the alleged former home of his supposed past life, he instinctively ran to a cupboard where his weapons were stored. Astonishingly, this was the exact cupboard where Khaddage’s deceased husband had kept his guns and grenades.

A Child’s Birth Marks Match A Bicyclist’s Deadly Injuries
Purnima Ekanayake of Sri Lanka bore unusual birthmarks on her lower ribs and chest, leading her to speak of a past life from a young age. After a school trip to a temple 145 miles away, she insisted on living in the town across the river, claiming to be a male incense maker who died in a traffic accident.
Upon investigation, her father and uncle discovered the name Jinadasa, a deceased incense maker from Kelaniya, who died in a bus accident while riding his bicycle. Visiting Jinadasa’s home, Ekanayake identified his wife, daughter, and even named the school he attended. Strikingly, her family had no prior connection with Jinadasa’s family, and Ekanayake’s specific and accurate information, combined with her unusual birthmarks, remains challenging to explain. Autopsy reports on Jinadasa revealed fractures and bruises matching Ekanayake’s birthmarks from the accident.

A Retired Fire Chief Felt An Emotional Link To A Civil War General
Retired fire chief Jeffrey Keene experienced an unexpected emotional reaction while visiting the Civil War battlefield Sunken Road in Maryland. Initially, he thought it might be a heart attack, but the intense connection persisted. When he shared the incident with a psychic, she asked about his belief in reincarnation, to which he instinctively replied, “Not yet.”
Later, while reading a Civil War magazine, Keene came across an article about General Gordon, who fought in Sunken Road during the Battle of Antietam. Gordon was known for repeatedly shouting the words, “Not yet.” Further research revealed more eerie connections between Keene and Gordon, including marks on Keene’s body resembling Gordon’s wartime wounds. On his 30th birthday, Keene experienced severe jaw pain, mirroring the injury Gordon suffered when shot in the face at the same age.

A Reincarnated Boy Solved His Own Murder
Though rooted in rumors, a chilling story circulates about a three-year-old boy from Golan Heights near Syria, born with a red birthmark on his head, claiming it resulted from being murdered in a past life. Physician Dr. Eli Lasch reportedly investigated the case, traveling with the boy across cities in Israel until he recognized a village. Walking through the town, the boy identified a man, stating, “I used to be your neighbor. We had a fight, and you killed me with an axe.”
Following the boy, Lasch and the accused man reached a spot where the child claimed to be buried. Astonishingly, a skeleton was discovered in the ground with a wound in the skull corresponding to the boy’s birthmark. Eventually, the accused man confessed to murdering his neighbor four years prior.

Swedish Woman Claims To Be The Reincarnation Of Anne Frank
Barbro Karlén, born in Sweden in 1954, began recounting strange stories about a person named Anne Frank from a young age. Claiming to be Anne Frank, Karlén described nightmares of men breaking into her home and taking her away. Puzzled, her parents were further astonished when they realized they had no prior knowledge of Anne Frank, who died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.
At the age of 10, Karlén’s parents took her to Amsterdam, where she led them unerringly to Anne Frank’s house. She correctly identified details like a spot on the wall where Frank had hung photos of movie stars and noticed changes in the steps. Convinced by these observations, Karlén’s parents finally believed she was the reincarnation of Anne Frank. Since then, she has been writing books about her unique and haunting experience.

A boy in Japan told stories of a different life
Two hundred years ago in rural Japan, a seven-year-old boy named Katsugoro startled his family by asking his sister about her existence before being born into their family. When questioned further, Katsugoro claimed to have died as a young boy and been reborn into his current life. He asserted that his past life was that of a boy who succumbed to smallpox in another farming village over the mountain in 1810.
Katsugoro’s detailed and accurate recollections of his former family, the village, and the circumstances of his death convinced his local community. Japanese intellectuals of the time even lined up to question him. Additionally, Katsugoro provided a mysterious account of the five years between his death and rebirth, describing a timeless realm where it perpetually felt like twilight, devoid of cold or hunger.

This lady claimed to have lived in ancient Egypt
Dorothy Eady, born in London in 1904, spent much of her life in Egypt, where she became known as Omm Sety and contributed to Egyptology. After an accident at age three, she believed she was the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian priestess until her death.
Eady explored Egyptian artifacts at the British Museum as a child, claiming they were her home and people. She recounted her past life as Bentreshyt, who, in 13th-century BC Egypt, had an affair with King Seti, faced punishment, and took her own life.
Eady accurately identified a spot in Egypt as a garden from her past life, later confirmed during excavations. Additionally, at an Abydos temple, she reportedly touched a specific mural scene in total darkness, highlighting her deep connection to her alleged past life.

In 1993, Jenny Cockell from Towcester, near Northampton, gained global attention with her book claiming a past life as a 1930s Irish housewife. From childhood, vivid memories and dreams haunted Jenny, leading her to pinpoint Malahide near Dublin. Upon visiting, she found an uncanny familiarity, matching childhood maps and drawings.
Local insight revealed a match with Mary Sutton, who died at 32 in the 1930s, leaving her children scattered in orphanages. Jenny located Mary’s children, and conversations with Sonny, a surviving child, revealed closely aligned memories. Jenny orchestrated a reunion after 60 years, with Mary’s children believing their mother reached out through Jenny.

She was an Irishwoman in the 19th Century.
Virginia Tighe, a Colorado housewife in the 1950s, gained fame by claiming a past life as 19th-century Irishwoman Bridey Murphy. Seeking relief for constant sneezing, Virginia underwent hypnosis at a party, surprising the hypnotherapist with her transformation into an Irish persona, complete with a thick brogue. Under hypnosis, she detailed her life in Ireland, from her birth in Cork in 1798 to her marriage in 1818 and eventual death in 1864.
Despite denying any prior knowledge of Irish culture from her Chicago childhood, Virginia refused further hypnosis or testing in later years. Her case sparked widespread interest and debate in the 1950s.

James IV of Scotland as a modern playwright
The last British king killed on the battlefield was James IV of Scotland at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. In the 1960s, English playwright Ada Kay visited Flodden Field, claiming to identify the exact spot where James IV fell. Her knowledge, she asserted, came from vivid childhood memories of being in a muddy field, killed by soldiers with swords and polearms.
Growing up with these memories, Ada questioned why she wasn’t a prince or named Stewart. Upon moving to Scotland in adulthood, she became convinced of her reincarnation as James IV. In 1972, she wrote an ‘autobiography’ of James, receiving mixed reviews.

The boy who fulfilled his past life’s destiny
Born in Seattle in 1991, Sonam Wangdu recognized at the age of two that he was the fourth reincarnation of the Tibetan lama Dezhung Rinpoche I. Signs leading to this realization included visions from his mother and her lama, as well as a prediction by the third reincarnation of Dezhung in 1987, stating, “I will be reborn in Seattle.”
In 1996, the boy, now known as Trulku-la, left his family to be raised by monks in Nepal, studying Tibetan Buddhism and eventually becoming the head of a monastery. Over the past 23 years, he has remained dedicated to his role as the fourth reincarnation of Dezhung Rinpoche I.

A boy’s stories from Iwo Jima
James Leininger, a four-year-old from Louisiana, believed he was a WWII pilot shot down over Iwo Jima. He displayed detailed knowledge about aircraft beyond his age, accurately identifying planes and sharing memories of his previous life. His parents, Bruce and Andrea Leininger, discovered a connection to the USS Natoma Bay and pilot James Huston, killed in action.
James experienced nightmares and vividly talked about his plane crashing. Seeking help, his mother contacted past-life therapist Carol Bowman, who advised acknowledging and reassuring James. Following this advice, his nightmares diminished. The family shared their story in the 2009 book “Soul Survivor.”
