MULBERRY, Maine – If you're hoping to reunite with a dead love or simply looking to bring back deceased relatives for the family reunion, there may be no time like the solstice.

In a startling new report, it was revealed that one of the world's greatest physicist may have found a way to raise the dead shortly before his bizarre death in northern Maine last spring.

Theodore Currie was found dead and covered in human bites June 21 in the massive Second Empire home he built in Mulberry, Maine. Those who have studied his work claim the great scientist had retreated to the remote part of the country in anguish over the death of his 6-year-old daughter Angel.

The focus of Currie's work: the loopy science of quantum physics, with its extra dimensions and infamous disregard of known laws of the universe.

"It sounds crazy," said physics student Jack Wilding. "But Mr. Currie knew more about the workings of the universe than any man alive. I have no doubt that, had he lived, Currie would have been the man to formulate the theory of everything. Did he stumble upon a way to recapture a human soul after death? I don't know. But I can tell you I will never discount that possibility outright."

In Mulberry, Maine, high in the state near the Canadian border, few residence know much about Currie's last days in his house atop Olive Hill. They know he had the home built as a precise replica of his daughter's favorite dollhouse. They know Angel Currie died in a house fire a year before in Tarrytown, New York. And they know that Theodore Currie seemed to be particularly eager for the coming summer solstice.

"That makes sense," said Wilding, of Columbia University. "The solstice is important because of the exact tilt on the planet. For what Currie had in mind, it would have played an important role in matters of gravity."

Some believe that Currie had found evidence that the human soul is converted to simple energy upon the death of the person who housed it. And in accordance with the conservation of energy principal, energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

"And that energy has to go somewhere," said Bruce Cobb, of The Dirge Magazine. "With the eleven dimensions suggested by string theory, Currie may have discovered the true resting place of the human soul."

Though the contents of the Currie house in Mulberry, Maine were never revealed to the public, some residents have said the house was filled with toys and other cherished items once owned by Angel Currie. It is Cobb's belief that Currie hoped to entice his beloved daughter from the trappings of the extra dimensions with her favorite playthings, including the dollhouse which was now large and inhabitable on Olive Hill.

"And it was important that he have this ready for the solstice," Cobb said. "Unfortunately, it appears Currie was killed that very day. Whatever secrets he had about the true nature of the afterlife, they were left inside that house."

The FBI has joined the probe of Currie's death. Local police have said it appeared Currie was bitten numerous times by a child before he died. The house has remained empty since last year's solstice.

In April, novelist Jonathan Cain moved to Mulberry, Maine. It was believed he had been granted permission to live inside the Second Empire home for the summer. All indications are that he will be settled there by June 21.
