MindStir Media Author Joy Stinson Will Appear on the Discovery-owned Destination America TV

MindStir Media's Joy Stinson, author of Out of the Darkness, will appear on Destination America network's When Ghosts Attack in the episode entitled Deliver Us from Evil Spirits. The episode will air on Destination America (a Discovery-owned network) on October 27, 2013 at 10pm ET as part of the "Halloween Episode" for the TV series.

Mrs. Stinson's book has done quite well thus far, especially at Amazon.com. It has garnered rave reviews from female and male readers alike. From the back cover: OUT OF THE DARKNESS gives an account of the two year spiritual battle that took place in rural south Louisiana after an overnight stay at an infamous haunted plantation. Ignorant regarding how to handle the escalating situation, the author came dangerously close to death trying to protect her three young daughters from tormenting demonic spirits. The story takes an unexpected turn, which forces the author to reveal a deep hidden secret that forced her to face her own demons from the past. As her faith in God was restored, her family slowly emerged from the nightmare and found redemption.
