I am what would be considered to be a “Skeptical Believer.” I believe that 80% or more of paranormal events can be explained with real world answers if you enter an investigation looking for answers…not ghosts. However, that still leaves the other 20% unanswered. When I was very young, I saw an old woman fade away while upstairs in my grandmother’s house. So I believe that the paranormal exists. But, sadly, something this grand has never happened to me again… so I continue to search, record, investigate and gather evidence because without hard evidence all the experiences are just ghost stories. I love talking with people when we are heading out to an investigation, there are people who come up and ask about what we are doing, some are very much into it and others are very dismissive. It is a privilege to speak to all of them but especially those that are so dismissive then getting them to at least start to think about the possibilities using examples from Albert Einstein’s theories on energy to the teachings of Catholicism. Ultimately, it is my need to help people who can’t turn to anyone else and finding the answers for them which drive my continued efforts in the field… after all, it’s not like they can just call the police after seeing an apparition!
