If you are in Eastern Kansas City, pick up a copy of the October issue of The X! There is an article in it about Paranormal Activity Investigators. There's several mis-quotes in the article, and trust me, I wasn't doing all the talking - although I'm credited with most of what was said, but it's always nice to be recognized for our hard work. You may also view the article online HERE.September 15, 2007
Just a reminder to get signed up for the exciting events in October!August 1, 2007

EXCITING NEWS! The next meeting for the Kansas/Missouri Stateline Chapter of the American Ghost Society will be held on Saturday, August 4 from 10 AM to Noon in Atchison, Kansas. Many thanks go out to P.E.D.R.O. (Paranormal Encounter and Documentation Research) for hosting this meeting!June 26, 2007

We'll also have lunch at the Hoof & Horn restaurant (formerly the Riverhouse) after the meeting for those interested.

The manager will treat us to a tour of the building and give us the history of its ghostly inhabitants. Please contact Jennifer Tarwater at jtarwa51599@yahoo.com or 913-787-5568 if you would like to attend the lunch. Reservations for lunch must be made by Thursday, July 26.

His website is at http://matthoyle.com Check out his work!September 8, 2006

I just returned from a wonderful vacation in Florida! I started in Orlando and drove down to Key West. While I was in Orlando, I recorded a very strange EVP in my friend's apartment. You can listen to it on P.A.I.'s site here . It is the April 10, 2004 EVP titled "Echra?"January 11, 2004:
While I was in Key West I had the pleasure of going on the walking ghost tour. If you are going to visit Key West, you cannot miss out on this wonderful and well put together ghost tour. More information can be found here. While I did not capture any anomalies during the ghost tour itself, I did get two solid orbs at the Hemingway House during the day. I've posted those photos in my Photos section. Many thanks go out to both Brant and Diamond Dave!
Last night I went to Decatur, Illinois to go on an investigation of the Lincoln Theatre as part of one of Troy Taylor's "Overnight Excursions." It was a very interesting night, and you can read about it on my investigations page. I also captured something out of the ordinary on film. Be sure to visit my photos to see this.
