Happy New Year!
This is an exciting year. Already this month, I have felt something move within spirit. New direction and new things are coming for this year, and I am excited to embark upon new adventures!

What’s Coming…New Book
After releasing the book, Helping Ghosts in 2010, I felt I would not do another book project. I just didn’t feel I had it in me. Recently, I was given a new book concept to work on. It is something that will take some time to research. I want to give readers a vision — a 30,000 foot view of life, let’s say. Ghosts are a part of this journey but so are angels, the full cycle of the human life, the eternal spirit, etc. There is much to say but now is not the time. When the ‘PR’ book is completed, I hope to be able to explain the human life cycle from a spiritual perspective. There is no end; there is no beginning. It will complete the vision behind the Angels & Ghosts website.

This year, I also plan on releasing a CD of ghost voices that I recorded. Some of these EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) were referenced in the book, Helping Ghosts: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits. Before this happens, I plan on possibly offering a free audio book excerpt complete with ghost and spirit voices. Stay tuned.

New Facebook Page
This year I will also seek to expand our Facebook audience with an Angels & Ghosts Facebook page. When complete, it will become more interactive and replace our forum. You can get involved now by “liking” its page: Angels & Ghosts Facebook Page

What are angels? Today, many people uphold traditional teachings about benevolent spirits not realizing that some of these traditions might not be as old as one might think.

In our article, Angel Voices, we examine some newer ideas and couple them with a much older teaching of Jesus. Do they line up? You decide…

Happy Holidays and Have a Great New Year!

It’s a Wrap! A Recap of the Past Year…and What’s Coming.

As 2010 comes to close, I want to thank everyone for their support of my work. Some very cool milestones happened this year, and I look forward to see where it goes from here!

Helping Ghosts

As you know, teaching others that people are interacting with us in spirit has been my primary focus. Helping others to realize that ghosts are people is an important part of that mission. In 2010, I met a lot of new people in my travels while promoting my new book, Helping Ghosts and remain encouraged that some ghost investigators are learning how to help lost spirits — ghosts. I trust I was able to spread the word by giving over 25 radio interviews and two television interviews over the past eight months!

This year, I plan on releasing a CD of ghost voices that I recorded. Some of these EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) were referenced in the book, Helping Ghosts: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits. I think some will be shocked to hear just how clear these pleas for help from the other side of the grave sound.

Full Spectrum Cameras

2010 also saw the rise in ghost hunting cameras that can see the human range of vision and beyond. Affordable prices have allowed these cameras to appear in the tool box of many ghost investigators. Not only are these cameras a better way to investigate (because the reduce false anomalies), but they have been achieving results. We are proud to let you know that two ghost pictures taken with our full spectrum cameras have appeared on the popular website of Coast to Coast radio. Customer testimonies and feedback have been only positive! Visit the Fringe Store to learn more about our ghost hunting cameras!

Recently, we began experimenting with full spectrum lighting. More testing will ensue for 2010. It is our hope to determine what wavelengths work best for capturing ghosts in photo and video.

New Report Coming – Moundsville Shadow Man

It has come to my attention that many ghost investigators believe the famous Moundsville Shadow Man photograph is not credible evidence because they saw it “debunked” by SyFy’s Ghost Hunters several years ago. Look for my report to come out about this in the next few weeks. I personally visited Polly Gear, who captured the ghost with camera, and prove that it is not a fake or a false anomaly produced through IR shadow reflection. The reason this is important to me is that I reference it in Helping Ghosts. People need to see the truth behind this photograph!

We just updated our page of ghost conferences for 2011, so now is the time to begin planning which conventions and conferences you wish to attend in the near future!

Visit: Ghost Conferences

To me, angels are messengers in spirit, enlightened beings who observe, sometimes interact, communicate, protect and even help guide us. After years of biblical, historical, spiritual and field study, I have noticed a similarity between human spirits who interact with us and come from a higher place of understanding. Call them spirits, not ghosts. The quotes on this page reflect some interesting insight into this. Could angels really be human messengers? Angels: Quotes

November is Here!

The past few months, I have met a lot of new people in my travels while promoting my book, Helping Ghosts. So, I have eased into November and welcomed a much slower pace. I must note that I am encouraged to see and hear reports of ghost investigators beginning to work toward learning how to help lost spirits — ghosts.

While at the ScareFest convention earlier this month, a well known ghost investigator came up to talk to me. He mentioned that the TV show he is on needs to work to learn how to help ghosts. In fact, he seemed bothered by the fact that many of the television investigators are asking ghosts if they need help, recording EVP containing help messages, and then walking away from the location after the cameras are turned off. The ghost is seldom helped and remains forgotten. I was greatly encouraged when he wanted copies of my book in order to learn methods of how to help ghosts through use of compassionate communication. If people on television shows about ghost investigation would recognize that they have a rather large audience that is mimicking their methods, then maybe they might also consider the huge responsibility they have to teach others that ghosts are people we can help to find peace. Please assist me in spreading the word about Helping Ghosts!

Now’s the time to start planning your vacation for next year. Perhaps, you are looking for some haunted places to check out in-between seeing the local sights. Check out these places for specters (and possibly for free!) if you are in the vicinity while vacationing: Haunted Places To Visit

Ghosts can be found anywhere. Heck, they can even follow us home. According to the experts out there, if you want to increase your odds of a ghostly encounter, check these sites out:

Happy October!

This is our busiest month of the year. Not only is Angels & Ghosts publishing pages of ghost and spirit stories, pictures, articles and videos, but I am out and about giving talks about ghosts and signing copies of my book, “Helping Ghosts: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits.” Additionally, we have worked hard to stock up our “fringe technology” store with unique, modified ghost investigation cameras and sweeping radios. I always look forward to “Halloween month” and the excitement it brings!

Halloween: What is it?

Recently while on a radio interview, I was asked to explain where the celebration of Halloween came from, the costumes, etc. I couldn’t do it, so I decided to look up the origins of All Hallows Eve.

Halloween is typically traced back to the Celtic celebration called “Samhain.” The word is derived from the Old Irish word samuin, meaning “summer’s end.” It was believed that the veil between the physical and spirit worlds becomes thin once a year on Samhain, allowing both harmful and harmless spirits to cross back and forth to our world. Family ancestors were honored and invited back but nefarious spirits were warded off. By disguising oneself as a bad spirit, it was believed that harmful spirits would leave the person alone. By the 16th century, a Scottish version of the festival was known as “All Hallows Eve” which was later shortened by removing the v-sound to just “Halloween.” All Hallows Eve fell on the night before All Hallows Day (October 31st) also known as All Saints Day – November 1st.

October brings about a variety of spooky attractions, so we wanted to list some of the best haunted houses and theme park scares from around the country. It’s fun sometimes to face our fears!

Be sure and check out: Best Haunted Attractions

Have you ever wondered how many people in ghosts? We took a look at the surveys that have been conducted over the past couple decades and give you the percentages as well as our thoughts about belief in ghosts. Read the article: Believe in Ghosts?

Nearing the fall season, many are looking forward to cooler weather. As we approach October and the Halloween season, this month we are fortunate enough to bring you some amazing ghost photographs. Take note that some of these ghost pictures are taken with different types of cameras – some of them altered to see into different spectrums.

Near Infrared Ghost Photography

We are noticing a trend. Some ghost investigators have been photographing ghosts and spirits with cameras that see more of the Near Infrared. Last month we shared Craig Rupp’s Gettysburg Ghost Photo that is an excellent example. Inexpensive cameras are now available that have an expanded “eye” that can see into the Ultraviolet and Near Infrared spectrums, while also covering the visible spectrum (what the human eye can see). Take a look at some of these UV-Vis-IR Ghost Pictures. Additionally, we have noticed results from cell phone cameras are possibly confirming this trend. Many of them can also see into the Near Infrared, and we have received some very good ghost photographs taken with cell phone cameras. Do we need to be looking for ghosts in the Near Infrared? Stay tuned. We plan on sharing our findings as more results come in…

This summer I had the chance to visit Charleston, South Carolina. This old “belle of the South” is a spectacular city steeped in lore and history. If you get a chance to visit, be sure to walk the streets, talk with the locals, and join a ghost tour at day’s end.

This month, I wanted to feature some of the stories I ran into while enjoying Charleston. You’ll learn about the city’s history, “oogles,” and a haunting ghost picture of Sue Hardy who possibly still mourns for her stillborn child. With over 50 new pages added to Angels & Ghosts this month, you’ll find links below to take you to the new additions.

Come out and see me or tune-in to a radio broadcast. Hopefully, I can answer some of your questions about ghosts and haunting.
