The producers of "Wife Swap" must have thanked the heavens when they learned about the Myers family of Huntley.

Samantha Myers, vice president of an insurance company, is the main breadwinner. Shane, her husband, takes care of the kids and home while pursuing a private investigator's license. Their four children range in age from 4 to 19.

Not terribly unusual in 2008, right? But wait, there's more. Shane Myers, an American Indian, says he was raised as a shaman and has psychic abilities. When he met Samantha, a person with similar, if undeveloped, gifts, he passed along his interest in the paranormal to her.

Today, Shane offers tarot card readings in his free time, and the whole family travels to houses and abandoned buildings to encounter spirits or, in some cases, chase them out.

"We go all over the country," Shane said. "We recently got a call from a man in Wisconsin who wants us to exorcise his house. He says he's being clawed by something as he sleeps at night."

The Myers family's ghost-hunting ways made them perfect candidates for ABC's "Wife Swap," a reality show in which the mothers from very different families trade places for two weeks. The Myers episode will air at 7 p.m. Wednesday. full story
