This episode of One Step Beyond was originally aired in two parts. The air dates are believed to be April 19th, 1960 and April 26th, 1960. I have combined them into a series of six episodes.
The Peter Hurkos Story is a quite fascinating accounting of psychic phenomenon. Declared the psychic marvel of the twentieth century, Peter Hurkos began his incredible journey in Amsterdam during World War II. The year was 1944 when Hurkos fell fifty feet from the top of a building and miraculously survived. After spending six days in a coma, he awakens to discover that he hears
voices and is terribly disturbed over this experience.
With the help of his landlady, Hurkos begins to channel this new phenomenon in a positive manner and begins a career as a performing clairvoyant. That is only the beginning of his new life however, a life that will take Hurkos on a bizarre journey.
Albert Salmi appears as Peter Hurkos. Your host is John Newland, "your guide to the unknown."

I read a book about this guy a bunch of years ago. Cool to see it as a dramatization. Thanks uploaded. I'd never heard of this show until yesterday, but it's great. You ROCK!

Everyone MUST watch this video...it took me 6 seperate clicks on YouTube but it's not that long cumulatively. Especiallyif you are interested in or doubt psychic ability...this is the true account via dramatization (but the real person is shown @ the end) of a fascinating true story of an amazing (psychic) man who once helped police solve very heinous crimes and his abilities were studied & documented by the Massachusettes Institute of Technology (MIT). Amazing & entertaining...

I can't express the comfort I feel in knowing that we're moving ever closer to a greater, perhaps perfect knowing of the psychic workings of human kind. I think all police departments should have psychics on staff.
