Sharon Osbourne has broken her silence on her 2022 health scare, when she passed out while filming an episode of the reality show Jack Osbourne's Night of Terror.

Osbourne, 70, discussed ghosts and other spooky subjects on this week's episode of The Osbournes podcast, which she co-hosts with her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, and children Kelly, 39, and Jack, 38.

This included the "unexplainable" moment that made it into Season 2 of Jack's paranormal investigation show on Max. Sharon was hospitalized following the "disturbing" incident, which occurred while visiting the Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, California, in December 2022.

During an experiment, Sharon donned noise-canceling headphones and a blindfold in an attempt to speak to the dead. But she fainted and was rushed to hospital, with the moment caught on camera.

"Over a period of about two minutes, she slowly, like, as if she was being moved in slow motion, goes back and then goes limp," Jack said.

"I thought she was f****** around because before we started filming, mum goes, 'Oh, why don't I just get possessed and we'll go home early?'

"So I just go into the room, think she's f****** around, and she's completely unresponsive," he continued.

"Wouldn't respond to me shaking her, [yelling,] 'Wake up, Wake up.' She then stopped breathing. I had to give her two or three resuscitation breaths, and it took paramedics coming [and] giving her oxygen for her to even come around," Jack said.

At the time, TMZ reported that Sharon had been taken to Santa Paula Hospital by emergency medical services after experiencing a health scare and was unconscious for 20 minutes.

According to Jack, doctors initially suspected that Sharon had suffered a stroke or drug overdose. However, after running tests, doctors at the hospital told her that "nothing was wrong."

"It was very, very odd," Jack said, who believes the incident was "some kind of spiritual attack [or] demon attack."

He said he showed the footage to "paranormal investigators" who were "very familiar with the phenomenon of channeling," and they believed that Osbourne had channeled something.

Rewatching a clip of herself passing out, Sharon said, "It's kind of weird," adding that an explanation was never found for her health scare.

"I think that maybe something was trying to contact me," she said.

After reports of her health scare broke that December, Sharon assured fans that she was recovering well.

"Back home and doing great!" she wrote on Instagram. "Thank you for all the [love]."
