Like many ghost hunters, my story starts as a child living in a haunted house. In 1999. My parents moved to a house that we soon found out was incredibly haunted. I wanted to know why hauntings happened and history goes along with hauntings like bread and butter. I eventually majored in history and became an educator, but my passion for the paranormal.did not go away. However, in South Carolina, i had trouble finding a paranormal team and like minded people to create a team with. After moving to Northern Virginia in 2016, I was able to join a paranormal team, and it has been a crazy adventure since. I found after investigating, that questions related directly to the location’s history often had gave us great results. I went back to my historical roots, and began to unearth the past before going to locations. This has helped the team I’m with now get more evps and results.
I now want to educate paranormal investigators and give them historical research tools for their investigations.
