Reincarnation is often described as the idea that people are reborn again into another body after they have died. Different religions and cultures all around the world do believe in this concept, however, there are many people who think it is simply a conspiracy. In the United States alone, thousands of young children speak about memories of a previous life that they claim to have lived in. They also show specific types of behaviors that lead professionals to confirm such claims. Ryan Hammond is a perfect example of children who prove to be reincarnated, just wait until you see how this chilling story unfolded…
Young Boy Remembers Thrilling Details Of His Past Life, Then He Proves He Was Reincarnated
Nightmares
Meet Ryan, a young 16-year-old boy who lives in Muskogee, Oklahoma. He was born to Baptist parents, his dad is a police officer while his mom is county clerk deputy. Ryan grew up in a loving home, surrounded by many family and friends. When he was about 4 years old, he started having vivid dreams and nightmares, where he would wake up during the night scared hysterically crying and claiming that his heart was exploding…
Nightmares
Supernatural Things
Eventually, it got to a point that Ryan’s mother Cyndi was very concerned. Ryan then began speaking to things that no four years should even know of. First, Ryan’s parents thought it was kind of supernatural happening that was going on, and then when things got worse, they suspected that they may even be some kind of demon inside of him. One of the things that concerned them is the fact that Ryan spoke about Hollywood, a place he had never been to or had any knowledge of.
Supernatural Things
Creative Imagination
Usually, around the time, young children are about 4 or 5 years their imaginations are starting to truly expand. So playing make-believe is totally natural for children, no matter how crazy the stories may sound. However, Cyndi felt that the things her son was saying were just too farfetched. He was only 4 years old. She would often walk into his room and find him recreating situations that seemed to come out of a horror story. Then, one day, Ryan began saying things that completely shocked his parents…
Creative Imagination
Directing Motion Pictures
Ryan told his mother, Cyndi, that he wanted to “go home, I hate being little.” He was determined that he used to be someone else. Even though Cyndi tried to brush most of it off, Ryan started to reveal more scary details. Cyndi started believing him and knew this was serious. She said. “His stories were so detailed and extensive that it just wasn’t like a child could have made it up. He began describing the intricate details of being on a Hollywood movie set in the 1940s – which is why he was directing “pictures” in his room. They were motion pictures”.
Directing Motion Pictures
Detailed Memories
Ryan then began speaking about numerous memories he had, he even used the names of famous 1940s actors and actresses. He claimed to have known these people personally. Was he actually reincarnated? Being a Baptist, Cyndi did not believe in reincarnation, so she kept Ryan’s story a secret for a while. But then, when things began to get out of hand, Cyndi wanted to get to the bottom of this and help her son out.
Detailed Memories
Coke Floats
She headed straight to the local library to get some books about Hollywood and showed the pictures to Ryan. This is when everything changed…Another puzzling sentence that Ryan said was that he loved drinking coke floats. Then, in one of the books that Cyndi has bought home, Ryan found a picture with two men that were facing each other but were also surrounded by other men. Ryan then pointed to the one in the middle…
Coke Floats
Hey, That’s Me!
Cyndi instantly became a lot more anxious and of course totally confused. Ryan pointed to one of the men and said, “Hey Mama, “That’s George. We did a movie together.” Showing the man on the right, wearing an overcoat and a scowl. “That guy is me. I found me!” Ryan’s mother had no words, and on top of that, she has no idea who these men in the picture were.
Hey, That’s Me!
Just A Phase
Cyndi felt completely helpless. What exactly was going on in her child’s life? Perhaps it was something going on at his new kindergarten? By as the days passed, he would continue to tell the most outrageous stories. He told his mom about the lavish overseas vacations he had as well as the big white house he owned in Hollywood that boasted a beautiful swimming pool. Ryan also described the street he lived on…
Just A Phase
Professional Help
Ryan said that he lived on a street that had the word “rock” in it. He added that he was married five times and was the father to three sons. It then got to a point that Cyndi decided to seek professional help for her son, enough was enough! This is when she got into contact with Dr. Tim Tucker, a very well-known child psychiatrist. He had a large amount of experience with children aged 2 to 6 years old that claimed to remember their past lives. This is what he had to say…

The Science Of Reincarnation
A psychiatrist by the name of Dr. Jim Tucker who teaches at the University of Virginia and specifically an associate professor of neurobehavioral sciences and psychiatry. One of the things that he focuses on is are children who seem to be ‘different’. A lot of the time the children he treats are a bit older age. This is important as at this stage children are able to understand and process information that others their age can’t wrap their heads around. And in particular, these children claim to remember past lives.
The Science Of Reincarnation
Return To Life
In 2013, Dr. Tucker published a book titled “Return to Life”. Here he describes his theory which states that children who are between the ages of 2 and 6 years old are able to remember tragic or violent deaths. Additionally, they are able to understand intricate ideas and issues. Dr. Tucker has tested over 2,500 children in order to support his theory and looked for signs of reincarnation. What exactly did he find?
Return To Life
The Case At Hand
Dr. Tucker was able to investigate with a large sample size which proved to be not only fascinating but truly amazing. Also, the various statistical similarities between the children and their memories of their “past lives,” ultimately fade away as they get older. There was one case in particular that really stuck with Dr. Tucker. He says that a young boy named Ryan Hammons has retained all of his “past memories” in near-perfect detail.
The Case At Hand
The Biggest Stars
Ryan continued telling story after story about his “travels” with some of the biggest stars in Hollywood during the 1940s. He said things such as “I used to be big, but now I’m little,” or “I liked it better when I was big and I could go wherever and whenever I wanted to go.” His mom, Cyndi eventually came to the conclusion that her Ryan was not making up any of these stories. She said, “His stories were so detailed and they were so extensive….a child couldn’t have made it up”.
The Biggest Stars
Lavish Parties
When Ryan was only 5 years old, he and his mother were watching TV when the famous Hollywood sign appeared on the screen. Straight away, Ryan burst into tears and begged his mother to take her back. She was obviously confused. He would then go on about lavish Hollywood parties and all the guests that attended these events. But that wasn’t it, Ryan also described the types of foods that were at these parties and even told her about how he used to work at a company that helped various performers change their names.
Lavish Parties
Tru-Ade
It actually got to a point that Ryan’s “memories” and the details of the stories were just getting too specific, especially for a five-year-old child. Was it possible that he just had a huge imagination? One of the things that convinced his mother that he wasn’t lying was the fact that Ryan kept asking for Tru-Ade, a drink that was popular during the 1940s, however, it was discontinued decades before Ryan was even born. But none of this ever stopped him from speaking of his “past life.”
Tru Ade
Trying To Get Answers
Back when Ryan and Cyndi were paging through an old book and he noticed someone that looked so familiar, Cyndi was finally able to discover who the man her son claimed to be was. The man’s name was Marty Martyn. He was former film director and manager of motion‐picture, he also was an actor who played as an extra in one movie. But the bizarre thing is that he died around 1964, five decades before Ryan was born.
Trying To Get Answers
Thorough Research
Psychiatrist, Dr. Tucker sat with Ryan and began to ask him a whole bunch of questions – questions only the real Marty Martyn would know. Ryan answered the questions conscientiously and gave 55 detailed facts about Martyn’s life. After this intense session, Dr. Tucker then went off to do thorough research on Marty Martyn. Dr. Tucker was determined, he even went so far as to contact the late Hollywood actor’s daughter to discoer what Ryan was saying was accurate and true. It turned out that everything Ryan told the doctor was true, including that Martyn died of a heart attack…
Thorough Research
Hidden Details
But this is not where it ended, it turned out that Ryan had an abundance of precise details and information about Marty Martyn’s life, including that he drove a green Rolls Royce and how many children he had. But he was wrong about one small thing, Ryan claimed that Martyn had two sisters, Marty Martyn’s daughter said that Ryan was incorrect. After more research it actually turned out that Ryan was right, Martyn’s second sister had been kept a secret all these years. Wow!
Hidden Details
Revealing The Truth
Things really seemed odd, Ryan also said that Marty Martyn had died when he was 61 years old. But according to Dr. Tucker, his death certificate clearly stated that Martyn was 59 years old. Nevertheless, through all the research that Tucker had performed, he later found out that Marty Martyn’s birth certificate was indeed incorrect. Ryan was right about his age at the time of Martyn’s death. Was there more?
Revealing The Truth
Major Criticism
Unfortunately, Dr. Tucker received a lot of backlash and harsh criticism for using Ryan and many others as examples of reincarnation. However, he is adamant that he is simply applying science to an allegedly supernatural phenomenon that so many cultures all the world over believe in. This is what he said about Ryan and his story, “It had seemed unlikely that an extra with no lines would have danced on Broadway, had a big house with a swimming pool, and traveled the world on big boats. But Marty Martyn did.”
Major Criticism
A Crazy Occurance
To this day, Dr. Tucker is not exactly sure as to why such a weird and unusual phenomenon occurs, nor how it even happens in the first place. These occurrences seem to have all of the pointers that define reincarnation, but still, even with the help of modern technology, it is not entirely possible to prove. “These cases demand an explanation,” he says. “We can’t just write them off or explain them away as just some sort of normal cultural thing.” There are many people who have unanswered questions…
A Crazy Occurance
Fact Or Fiction?
Ryan, now 16 years does not recall as much as he did when he was younger. Of course, he still has flashbacks of his “past life” but they are not as vivid. Dr. Tucker claims that this is in fact quite normal and that as the new memories come in, the old ones get pushed out. However, Dr. Tucker is still amazed at the longevity of the memories that Ryan was able to retain. So, is reincarnation real? Do you believe in reincarnation? Maybe after this next story, you too will believe in it…
Fact Or Fiction?
Apparently, it is said that every famous person from Hollywood actors to kings and queens has at least one look alike. With that being said, some even people that some of our beloved celebs are reincarnated from past eras. Could this really be true? Well, let’s take a closer look at these celebrities and then decide for yourself…
Eminem
If this isn’t the definition of uncanny then we don’t know what is. Famous rapper Marshall Mathers or otherwise known as Eminem is internationally famous. Not just for his amazing music but for starring in the movie Green Mile which tells his personal story. But it appears that the American rapper was once a British World War I soldier. Wow, right?
Eminem
Eddie Murphy
These reincarnation images get scarier and scarier as we go on, don’t you think? Well, we definitely think so after looking at this side-by-side picture of Eddie Murphy, or perhaps this is what time travel looks like. It’s not exactly clear who Murphy was in his past life but it is evident that his historical lookalike has spme striking similar features.
Eddie Murphy
Mark Zuckerberg
Philip IV was known to many as the Iron King of France. He was born in 1268 and died around 1314 which is more than 600 years from the time the king of Facebook was born. Mark Zuckerberg could simply have been reincarnated from this French King. Who would have guessed that Zuckerberg would have royal roots? Do you see the remarkable resemblance?
Mark Zuckerberg
Nicolas Cage
If there is one actor in Hollywood who is expected to have had a past life, most people would guess Nicolas Cage. Maybe it’s due to the fact that he has starred in so many brilliant history films. This picture below belonged to an album of Civil War photos, and though Cage’s doppelganger was not named, he seems to have lived around 150 years before Cage was born.
Nicolas Cage
Justin Timberlake
Ever wondered what Justin Timberlake might look like as a criminal from the old west, this may be your lucky day! Justin Timberlake may be a music icon, especially during the late 90s, but with this kind of evidence, one has to believe that he was reincarnated. His doppelganger is said to have lived around 1970. We also wonder if he was as talented as JT.
Justin Timberlake
Jason Segal
How weird is this? Four years after the famous actor, Lee J. Cobb passed away, another great actor was born. Jason Segal is most famous for appearing as Marshall Eriksen on How I Met Your Mother. But he has had other roles in films like Bad Teacher and Gulliver’s Travels. Without a doubt, Cobb looks like he could have been Segel’s grandfather. They have many extraordinary similarities!
Jason Segal
Christina Aguilera
Below we have Christina Aguilera and Academy Award-winning actress, Ginger Rogers. Again, not only do these two beauties have very similar looks but the two are also singers, dancers, and actresses. As of yet, the Aguilera has never confirmed that she and Rogers are related. However, there is quite a bit of evidence that shows there may be a connection here. Strange, don’t you think?
Christina Aguilera
Alec Baldwin
Most of us know Alec Baldwin as an American actor, writer, comedian, and film producer. Some of you may recognize him from films such as Pearl Harbour, Its Complicated, and Blind. However, others are determined that he once lived during the 1800s as the 13th president of The USA. His name was Millard Fillmore. After seeing such a comparison like the one below, it’s hard not to believe in reincarnation, right?
Alec Baldwin
Greta Thunberg
Back in 2019, during the height of Greta Thunberg’s political career, a photo that was taken in 1898 came to light. There is a truly uncanny resemblance between the two girls, born in two completely different eras. The young girl on the left was seen in a photograph with her siblings fetching water from a well in Dominion Creek, Yukon Territory. The chances that she is a time traveler and now lives in the year 2021 as an environmental activist are extremely high.
Greta Thunberg
Jennifer Lawerence
31-year old awarding winning actress, Jennifer Lawrence was one of the world’s highest-paid and influential actresses. However, it definitely seems as though the Hunger Games actress and Egyptian actress Zubaida Tharwat have some major similarities. This may not be exactly a true reincarnation story but perhaps the two actresses on very closely related. Uncanny to say the least!
Jennifer Lawerence
Orlando Bloom
Another gorgeous, famous actor to feature on our list is Pirates of the Caribbean star, Orlando Bloom. At one stage of his life when he sporting long wavy hair and a thin mustache, one would automatically think he was Nicolae Grigorescu reborn again. The influential Romanian painter, writer, and soldier lived in the 1800s. And if you ask us, there is definitely a splitting resemblance between the two. Bloom also happens to be an enthusiastic art collector. Perhaps this is because he knows a thing or two from past experience.
Orlando Bloom
Queen Latifah
Queen Latifah has been in the music and acting industry for quite some time now. Believe it or not but she is 51 years old which means she was born in 1970. Now, Zora Neale Hurston who was an American author, anthropologist, and filmmaker died in 1960. So if you ask us, there is no doubt that Queen Latifah has been reincarnated. The evidence is right here!
Queen Latifah
Maggie Gyllenhaal
As you’ve probably realized by now, we have a jam-packed list full of famous Hollywood actors and actresses. 43-year-old Maggie Gyllenhall has played many great roles during her career. Some may recognize her from films such as Nanny McPhee, Mona Lisa Smile, and Confessions of A Dangerous Mind. While others believe she is Rose Wilder Lane reborn again. There are only a few years between Lane’s death and Gyllenhaal’s birth so yes this one is likely to be true.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Andrew Garfield
American-British actor Andrew Garfield is a recipient of various accolades, including a Tony Award and a British Academy Television Award. So of course he is no stranger to the film industry. However, it recently came to light that Garfield has a striking resemblance to Ukrainian-Russian Marxist revolutionary, political theorist, and politician, Leon Trotsky who lived between 1879 and 1940. Regardless even though quite a mystery, Garfield’s roots have not been traced back to Russia…yet.
Andrew Garfield
Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt is not just Angelina Jolie’s ex-husband but he is also a brilliant Holywood actor who has earned himself numerous awards including two Golden Globe Awards and an Academy Award. In recent years, it evolved that Pitt may really have been reincarnated. Take a look at this photo of him and the Swiss psychologist who developed the Rorschach test, Hermann Rorschach. Although Rorschach lived during the 19th-century, you cant say that this is impossible!
Brad Pitt
Bruce Willis
Did you know that 66-year-old Bruce Willis is actually a German native? He moved to the USA when he was 2 years old and as the saying goes, “the rest is history”. Here we can see how Willis is the spitting image of Douglas MacArthur who was the five-star general who led the United States and its allies in World War II. But Willis was born in 1955 and MacArthur only died in 1964 so…
Bruce Willis
Donald Trump
Whether it’s good or bad the 45th U.S. President, Mr. Donald Trump is someone who is well-known all over the world. For most of us growing up, the first time we got to know him was during the 10 seasons long TV show, The Apprentice. And perhaps his role on the show was not the first time he played “the tough guy”. It all makes perfect sense when you see that his doppelganger is in fact, General George Patton. Interesting to say the least.
Donald Trump
Serena Williams
We all know civil rights advocate Betty Shabazz and of course tennis sensation, Serena Williams. But the fact that these two look terrifyingly similar was probably not common knowledge to many people around the world. However, this may not be a true form of reincarnation as the two famous women once lived during the same time, but Shabazz died in 1997. Perhaps there is more to this than meets the eye…
Serena Williams
John Travolta
Many Scientologists believe in a type of reincarnation while others are determined that time travel exists as well. In the early 2000s, the photograph on the left surfaced and claimed to be a 150-year-old photo of a man who looked a lot like John Travolta. The two have similar-looking eyes, hairline, facial structure, and penchant for longish sideburns. It certainly looks like the exact same person from two different centuries.
John Travolta
David Schwimmer
Of course, David Schwimmer is notorious for playing Ross Geller in the sitcom Friends. However, the actor has also featured in numerous other films and TV shows over the years. When it comes to reincarnation and celebs, it doesn’t always mean that they were famous in their past lives. And this may very well be the case with David Schwimmer. A picture of an unknown man from the 1800s was found and many believe it is indeed Schwimmer from another era,
David Schwimmer
Ellen Degeneres
Ellen Degeneres is loved by so many people all over the world. Not only is just super hilarious but she is also known to be incredibly charitable. Her personal TV show has people both laughing and then crying from pure heartwarming stories. It is believed that she may indeed be reincarnated from American philosopher Henry David Thoreau. The resemblance is pretty scary, don’t you think?
