I'm A Ghost Hunter

My cat was put to sleep, and that evening, almost to the exact moment that she was put down, I was looking at her toys and thinking I should maybe start putting them away, when one rolled across the floor by itself.

Immediately, the grief that I had, didn’t go away, but something happened to it; it was nullified. I wasn’t as lost in my grief as I had been up to that point. That’s kind of how it started for me – this feeling that I had to find out more about what was going on.

Ghost hunting is not a career for me; I don’t get paid for this. I’ve been doing it for about 10 years, I guess and about six of those years, we’ve had a website. The website is there to help people but also as a place to put things up that we can’t explain. We’re not saying for a second that what we’re putting up on our website are ghosts; after examining the photographs, these are just things that we haven’t been able to explain. People can contact us if they need us, but we don’t charge for any of this.

Some of the things we can’t explain include strange mists that seem to be in clear air, when it’s not cold outside and there’s nobody smoking. We’ve seen figures of people that aren’t there, looking like whatever you expect ghosts to look like.

Our website also gives some definitions to some common terminology used in our work. For example, an ‘orb’ looks like a ball of light (about the size of a golf ball), which sometimes look wet inside or all filled with smoke. These you can see with the naked eye at places that are supposedly very haunted.
