I wouldn’t say that I have a unique point of view among paranormal researchers, but it is a rather rare one. Most people exist huddled at opposite extremes; that is, they either have a passionate belief in paranormal phenomena, convinced by the tiniest shreds of evidence, or they think it’s all a bunch of superstition and Hollywood hogwash and keep their worldview locked behind a steel door.

There are a few of us in the middle, though. We are both scientist and mystic; believer and skeptic. For as much as I am a fervent supporter of paranormal happenings- be it the adventurer in me or due to religious persuasions, I am also equally skeptic of any evidence presented to me because the scientist in me has more questions than answers.

This double-edged sword is unleashed every time someone finds out that I am a paranormal investigator and decides to play a game of “Stump the Ghost Guy.”

Now, don’t get me wrong. I love hearing peoples’ stories and I’m not trying to be pretentious, but there’s a time and a place and I’m not always in business mode; however, if there aren’t too many distractions or I’m not preoccupied I’m always happy to hear a good story and share in a good discussion. The problem arises when too much is expected as a result of the conversation.
