The Mirror shares the tale of Oklahoma boy Ryan Hammond, who believes he is the reincarnation of 1940s era Hollywood agent Marty Martyn. Ryan swears he has vivid memories of living in Hollywood nearly 100 years ago, including his death in 1964 from a brain hemorrhage. Beginning when he was three, Ryan would wake in the middle of the night complaining of chest pains or yelling “Action” in his dreams. Many of Ryan’s claims about Marty’s life have been confirmed by Marty’s daughter.

What’s the connection between a 1940s Hollywood agent and a boy in England born 60 years after his death? Is it a hoax? Reincarnation? What happens next?
