http://news3lv.com/news/local/radio-...n-pahrump-homeLAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Radio host Arthur William Bell passed away Friday, April 13.
Arthur Bell, also known as Art Bell was the original owner of Pahrump based radio station KNYE 95.1 FM. And perhaps best known for his conspiracy theory in the paranormal, with his radio show "Coast to Coast" - which was syndicated across the nation.
The Nye County Sheriff's Office says Bell died at his home in Pahrump, Nevada.
Bell is scheduled for an autopsy later this week to determine the cause of death.
He was 72-years-old.
Just like he knew how to make an entrance he made one hell of an exit 4.13.78, I will never forget those over nights as a tow truck operator and listening to Art Bell while driving through the sticks from the interesting to the simply ridiculous it was always fun and entertaining. I would never agree with the man or his politics and I question more than just his moral character, but there is no taking away his accomplishments, before any boring George Noory or fat ass moronic Bill Hicks wannabe Alex Jones , There was Art Bell the innovator, BS peddler who can never be replaced.

Arthur William Bell III (born June 17, 1945 - April 13, 2018) was an American broadcaster and author. He was the founder and the original host of the paranormal-themed radio program Coast to Coast AM syndicated on hundreds of radio stations in the U.S. and Canada. He also created and hosted its companion show Dreamland.
Semi-retired from Coast to Coast AM since 2003, he hosted the show many weekends on Premiere Networks for the following four years. He announced his retirement from weekend hosting on July 1, 2007, but occasionally served as a guest host through 2010. He attributed the reason for his retirement to a desire to spend time with his new wife and their daughter, born May 30, 2007. He added that unlike his previous "retirements", this one was permanent, while leaving open the option to return.
