Orbs

This photo was taken by a guest at one of our events in Downtown Morristown,  who said that it felt like someone was following her down the steps. She turned and took this photo over her shoulder...and then ran once she looked at it. One of the buildings located behind the Thomas House . Orbs . . . proof of the afterlife or that it's dusty? This is a much debated phenomena within the paranormal community. What are orbs? The usual 'orb' is round, may have a 'face', 'eye', rings, or spots in it, and varies from transparent to white, and they even come in different colors on occasion. In my opinion, most orbs occur when the camera flash reflects off of dust or moisture that is in the air, or even a bug. When I took the photo to the left, I didn't look at it and say, "Wow, I just took a picture of a ghost." I was outside, on a humid Tennessee night, and knew that it was moisture. This is what often happens in photos fro...

My Ghost Story

  A lot of people ask me how I got involved in the paranormal or why I'm a 'ghost hunter'. I think my reason for getting involved in it is the same as many other investigators; I've had an experience. And when you experience something you can't explain, you want answers. So when people ask me why, I share my ghost story. As a teenager, we lived in the second oldest town in Tennessee—the beautiful town of Dandridge. Shortly after moving into our house, we noticed some strange things happening. My little brother, who was around one or two years old at the time, would look into his dark bedroom and talk (gibber-jabber) to someone who we couldn't see. Then things started getting moved, usually while we were asleep or not at home. I came home from school one day to find the drawers under my bed pulled out and my clothes hanging out of them, pulled right out into the floor, yet no one had been in my room. And my mom couldn't find her tea, on...

Being a Christian Paranormal Investigator seems like an oxymoron to some people. I have heard that 'the Holy Ghost is the only ghost there is . . . anything else is of the devil'. Well, I don't have all the answers, and I'm not all-knowing , but I do beg to differ, seeing as how I would never go chasing the devil. (I shudder at the thought.) With the recent influx of paranormal shows, such as Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures, just to name a couple, people from all walks of life have taken an interest, not only as fans of these shows but as investigators. There's probably not a single town that doesn't have at least one resident paranormal group. When I hear that we are 'chasing the devil' or 'conjuring evil', I get really offended, especially when I have a hard time just watching a movie that contains an evil plot. (I think I'm the only Paranormal Investigator who has never seen The Exorcist.) There is a vast difference between searchin...
