In 2019, Charlotte Holmes was rushed to the hospital with dangerously high blood pressure. During a hypertensive crisis, her heart stopped for 11 minutes. What followed, she claimed, was a vivid experience of both heaven and hell.

Charlotte described an out-of-body moment where she saw her husband and medical staff working on her. Then, she said, she found herself in a beautiful, music-filled heaven, reunited with her late parents and the child she miscarried 48 years earlier—now a toddler.

She also claimed to witness hell, describing it as unbearably horrific and smelling of rotten flesh. According to Charlotte, God asked her to return and share what she saw to warn others.

Charlotte passed away in November 2023 at age 72. Her husband Danny said her 2019 near-death experience deeply changed her, and she spent the rest of her life sharing her story of hope, love, and spiritual warning.
