10/30/14: Black Creek Library Presentation. We were asked to do a special Halloween event with the Black Creek Library to talk to the community about ghost hunting. We provided an overview of the investigation process as well as shared video, pictures and EVP's of past investigations as well as had a question and answer session with the audience. We were thrilled to be able to share what we do with the community of Black Creek and look forward to making a trip back in the future.
10/30/14 WFRV Channel 5 news coverage of a case we did for Buddah's Still in De Pere, WI. We had the opportunity to do an investigation at Buddah's after watching a very compelling video that the owner showed us. We did not capture the same evidence on video but were able to capture many EVP's to support the conclusion that Buddah's is in fact haunted. We would say at this point that there is nothing malicious there, just curious ghost(s) that want to keep an eye on the business and its patrons. Our evidence points to the ghost having a connection with the past history of a bakery.

DE PERE, Wis. (WFRV) - Do you believe in ghosts? It is a question being asked in one local community, after a bar owner spotted strange figures on his security camera.
Our cameras were invited to go behind the scenes with paranormal experts to try to confirm the haunting.
We had three different mediums tour the property at different times. Each of them reported similar ghost encounters.
"He has got like a revolving door here for spirits" says Psychic Medium Regina Becker.
She is one of the paranormal experts brought into Buddha's Still, downtown De Pere, after some strange events at the bar.
"We have had the jukebox play after closing and switch channels to play" says Robert Younger, Owner of Buddha's Still.
And, several times his motion sensor security system turned on, when nobody was in the bar.
He was shocked, when he watched the surveillance video.
Something seems to be moving back and forth. Some people claim to see legs and even a chef hat on the shadowy figure.
"I did try to convince myself there was nothing here, but the more you watch it, it is not the same pattern as a car driving by or a light flashing through the window" Younger says.
Paranormal experts agree there is something more.
Local 5's Millaine Wells was invited along as local Psychic Medium Regina Becker toured the bar.
"This morning when I asked for whoever was out there in this building to come forward, that we would like to meet them, I got the name of Jonas Meriwether" she explains.
The team from Green Bay Area Paranormal Society brought in several cameras and other ghost hunting devices to conduct its own investigation.
"We ended up finding some interesting things" says Kyle Boyce, founder of the Green Bay Area Paranormal Society.
Recorders captured footsteps, strange noises and even someone talking.
But, the team does not jump to conclusions.
According to Younger "You still have to stay a skeptic. You do not want to believe every little thing you see as a paranormal encounter".
Becker agrees saying "look back at the reality things first, is it the heating unit kicking in, making the pipes expand that is going bang, bang, bang".
For Becker, the proof is in the photos.
She provided incredible detail, seeing several people and the spirits of two dogs.
Regina says research is off-limits before a job like this. She does not want to cloud her findings.
"I am hearing fire" she says while assessing the bar. "I am thinking the original building burned".
We turned to the De Pere Historical Society to find out the facts about this building.
It used to be a bakery and in fact burned to the ground in 1931.
"I just wanted answers" Younger says. "I am not a skeptic, it is not that I do not believe in this, I pretty much do. But, I wanted some answers. I wanted to make sure that I am not on the loony bin".
The experts say they do not possess any special talent. They are just open to the world around them and beyond.
"You can block it. Everybody has the gift, its how you accept it. Small children are totally open unless their parents bring them down" Becker says.
For Younger, the findings are a relief. "Now I know I am not the only one here seeing this and feeling it" he says.
Everyone agrees this is not a place with evil spirits.
"Have some fun with it. I feel that the ones in here want to be playful" Becker says.
Boyce agrees saying "You should be just fine. You might be a little tipsy after a long night there, but you will be just fine".
And, you may just come away with a ghost story of your own.
