Oh Christ… you’re telling me hell is real?

Well, according to Charlotte Holmes of Wichita, Kansas, both heaven and hell are definitely real, having seen them for herself after she ‘died and came back to life‘ in September 2019.

After going for a routine check-up with a cardiologist, Charlotte – who was in her late sixties at the time – discovered that her blood pressure was dangerously high, before doctors explained she was either having a heart heart attack or a stroke.

She was rushed to hospital where she was pronounced clinically dead for 11 minutes – at which point, she had an out-of-body experience.

Charlotte explained how she could see and smell the most amazing flowers – it was then that her husband Danny, who was sat by her side throughout the terrifying ordeal, realized something was up.

Recounting the incident on The 700 Club, he said: “That’s when I knew she was not in this world.”

Speaking about it, Charlotte said: “I could smell the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever smelled, and then I heard music. When I opened my eyes, I knew where I was. I knew I was in heaven.”

Heaven, it seems, is as beautiful as the Bible paints it.

Charlotte said: “I can’t convey to you what heaven looked like, because it’s so above what we can even imagine, a million times.

“There’s no fear, it’s like pure joy when the angels take over.”

In her vision, she witnessed her parents, sister and other family members that she had lost – including her baby who had sadly died during pregnancy, but he took the form of a little boy instead of a fetus.

But it was her description of hell that will horrify you.

While she was in heaven, she claimed God showed her a vision of what hell was.

Charlotte added: “God took me to hell, and I looked down and the smell, and the rotten flesh – that’s what it smelled like… and screams.

“After seeing the beauty of heaven, the contrast to seeing hell is almost unbearable.”

The devout Catholic explained that the reason she was shown the horrors of hell by God was to warn people.

She went on: “He says, ‘I show you this to tell you, if some of them do not change their ways, this is where they shall reside.’ I heard my father say, ‘You have time to go back and share.'”

After 11 minutes she was resuscitated, but four years later in November 2023, Charlotte died at the age of 72 following a heart attack.

She left behind Danny, their only child Crystal and their grandchildren.
