some of your questions answered

hello folks greetings... On my blog today I was actually thinking about a few things some people have asked me over the past week a series of questions that I think I should answer..

1. Why do a lot of paranormal researchers say that batteries will die when their on cases?

A.this is a common thing with paranormal research something we've learned happens every single case practically.. Our theory is that the dead used electric out of a person's chemical batteries in order to give us a sign... Right after a battery is completely drained we have noticed that there is a very strong EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) we want to have you understand why the dead would do this.. The answer is very simple they're trying to make a statement they're trying to tell us something but they're so weak that they don't know what else to do so out of desperation they go after the one thing that can recharge them and give them an opportunity to speak... it happens to be our batteries..is it annoying?...

 yes it can be.... especially when you change a digital recorder's battery when you first start the case and 10 min. later the batteries completely dead... useless...this is why we carry so many batteries for our digital recorders and digital recorders die so quickly because of the interference from them... But it's all right we understand that they're trying to make a statement you can't get mad at them for doing so you can only bless them and hope that they've gotten their point across...

2. Someone asked me this week...( I really would like to go to a haunted location but I'm too scared to how do you get over your fear? )

A. to be completely truthful and honest you never get over the fear... It stays with you for the remainder of your cases.. You never know what the dead is going to do especially the situation when you're by yourself in a room... What's the way to counteract this talk to them like they're standing right in front of you... Most ghosts/spirits just want to talk they're not there to hurt you... There are occasional times where a spirit is very angry and takes their aggression out on a person this is normal but you also have to understand their state of mind they been imprisoned in the outer world and no one can see them or hear them but yet they still remain...the question becomes what would you do to get someone's attention?... In many cases they get our attention by throwing objects... Draining batteries... Whispering in our ears... Even grabbing our hands..( that is especially shaking when you have a spirit of the child grab your hand ) I think the best way to get over your fears by facing your fear and in overcoming it you learn to face that fear head on.... But that's just my advice that's how I face my fear every day

3. What you guys do as a hobby when you're not out on a case?

A. I myself am huge video game nut been playing video games since I was five years old... Whenever I have free time and am not doing EVP analysis I'm always playing a game or thinking about it... I also just recently upgraded to the new Motorola droid razor so that'll keep me quite busy...

4. This question I thought was funny... I noticed you like to give information on your EVP's is there a reason you do this?

A. absolutely a lot of EVP videos are just straight to the point EVP videos I wanted them to be a little entertaining... What's the point in watching a video if you don't learn about something and don't have a good time watching the video at all... This is why I spent over two hours on a particular video to make it entertaining but at the same time make it something worth watching.. I Dale have been doing the videos on the  EVP page since very beginning I've learned alot tricks about the EVP videos... what looks cool and what does not lol  and if you look at some the very early videos I kind of didn't know what I was doing I was just a dude doing videos and having no clue how to work the whole process ... So videos are a little off at the beginning... I greatly apologize I had no clue how to edit video its something I've had to work...

5. do you guys have an android app?

A. currently we are working on it... It has to be approved first before it can actually be broadcast... our app will be a free app you be able to download...I worked a lot of hours on the actual app itself whenever I got time to working on the app for probably about a year or so when it is available I will be posting it on Facebook so you all will be able to grab the app from the marketplace... Hopefully after it's approved you guys can give me feedback on what to change and how to make the app much better...which I welcome all feedback

Well I thank you all for your questions since last blog feel free to check out our electronic voice phenomenon page on YouTube.... And you remember something... If you had an opportunity to say goodbye to someone you love.. Would you take that opportunity?.. Even if it meant destroying your family?... Or maybe losing your job?.. How far would you be willing to go?... It's words to really truly think about.... what would happen if you had an opportunity to say goodbye to someone who has passed?

remember the dead are not silent

they have a voice

they want you to hear it

The dead can speak

hello folks greetings and salutations... With the new year comes a new blog... Again it's to share my thoughts feelings and cases that I am about to do... I also wanted to give some advice to some people that have asked me some questions..

Okay first off I have to say thank you to my team members of mentor Ohio paranormal research Society... They have done an awesome job collecting evidence and data...

Second I need to acknowledge Jason Lee from the mentor patch for also doing a outstanding job..

and third I need to acknowledge that my good friend James and his wife Mariah are having a baby sometime today or tomorrow so if I don't get a chance to congratulate them as little Noah is born congratulations guys and Mariah you're going to be an amazing mother..

Okay let's start the blog shall we?
during the winter months I don't normally get a lot of requests for paranormal study...But This Month Alone I have gotten alot...a lot more than I normally would... So the question is why?

And the answer is not very simple it's actually very complex this time of year most are spending more time indoors then out... Seems like everybody hibernates when the winter comes and this could be the very reason why paranormal activity increases.

People are in their house they noticed more more things going on and all the while attribute it to the house itself. The floorboards that Creek. The lights to flicker. And they think that this is normal for the house until one morning or one day that normal turns paranormal

You have to understand their state of mind if you've read my last blog you understand that they can see and they know you're there and when you don't pay attention to Them desperation takes over.. So they do whatever they think they have to.. to get your attention..

This is where me and my team come in, we make contact, we establish what's in your home, we document, collect data and present an argument.. The argument being what exactly is in your home?

 The other part of the blog that I wanted to talk about was how do you communicate with them. In your home?

though it's not easy it can be done EVP is truly an amazing field to study. For those of you who do not know EVP stands for it stands for electronic voice phenomenon.. To put in a relative simple terms we record audio in your home record it for 6 to 10 hours worth of time and then we listen to see if we can spot anything that's odd or unusual.. Then when you hear a voice and you know no one was there at the time this is what we categorize as EVP.. There are different classes of EVP's ranging from class A to class G ..class a EVP's are the best of the best you can clearly hear what is being said with little or no interference with the equipment we use to boost, amplify, or modify the recording.class G EVP is where we have to literally spend hours on end listening to that particular voice and try to understand it using the equipment by boosting its audio.. filtering the layers of the audio equipment most class G EVP's are barely voices.. But we still have to acknowledge that it is an EVP.. The dead have an amazing ability to show their true colors when desperation takes over the situation.. And I am thankful for every moment that I am alive and breathing.. But I also know it's just a matter of time before I leave this place... Till then I have dedicated my life the remainder of it to understanding this phenomenon until it is solved by science and the scientific community..my one friend who is been in paranormal research since the year 2002 explain to me why he decided to go into research.. Any answer was very simple what if you had a moment that you could talk to someone you love?.. What price would you pay?.. Would you be willing to sacrifice something in return just to say hello?.. Or maybe not even hello maybe telling a friend or loved one I love you one last time..this is why I am in this.. Why I have dedicated my life to the study of paranormal research.. It is for your benefit..it is for my benefit..to be able to talk to someone who is made it on the other side.. I hope that one day when I leave this place someone will study me and asked the question who are you and I respond.. I hope it's one of my children continues this tradition.. The study of paranormal research.. And I hope that when technology catches up we are able to document more than what we are currently able to do.. Until that time I will keep fighting for our future.. Our past.. And the history that we every day lose..

okay now onto some of the questions that I was asked..

Question one.. Can a person become possessed from the spirit?

Answer. Yes one can be possessed by a spirit.. But this is extremely rare 1% of cases Have a some form of possession... so if a researcher does 10,000 cases.. one case has possession..and spirits only possess people out of desperation.. they want to talk to living so badly they're willing to enter that person's body just to say a few simple words.. So the question is how can you combat this?.. Well there are a few things you can do.. Contact your faith your faith can be your greatest weapon.. If you are strong in faith the spirit recognizes that and will not attempt to do anything to harm you...but understand they can only stay in the body for a certain amount of time after that time is up it's over..in your body returns to normal resulting in you.. Returning to normal.

Question two.. What is the best piece of equipment to make contact?

Answer. By far it's the digital recorders.. I myself use a Olympus 4100 PC model
it is probably the best recorder on the market today in my opinion.. If you don't have it and you want to start a group your best bet is to get a 4100 model or a Olympus 5200  which is also quite good..EVP is truly amazing and the equipment can tell you so much about whatever may be going on..

Question three.
When you started what was the best advice that you got from anyone?

The best advice I ever got.. Was actually from a GAC member... Ghost adventure crew... Nick contact me via MySpace.. And gave me the best advice ever when you think you've got nothing... continue don't give up..never give up.. When you do they can not contact you have to want to contact them for them to talk to you... That was probably the best advice I ever got into this day I still will not give up and I'm thankful for Nick's advice it really has made it huge difference..

well it's time to say goodbye I hope all of you who have read this blog are enlightened by its simple but undertone answers to some of your questions.
And I Hope I Will meet You Someday...

. And remember one basic and final understanding

The dead is everywhere... They can see you.. They can hear you.. And yes they are watching..

Waiting for the opportunity to say I have something to tell you...

Because the dead can speak...
