Ever notice?


While watching paranormal television, did you ever notice that no matter what color of hair people have in the daylight that everyone is Blond(e) on IR©? Literally.

I have.

Further, I noticed that the majority of paranormal research, especially as it is portrayed on television, follows an assumption based investigation model. And you know what happens when you assume...

Please pay attention to the next television show that you watch or the next investigation that you conduct. Did you assume? Bet you did. Did you acknowledge the assumption before formulating a conclusion? Bet you didn’t. I know I am guilty of it.

Guess that makes us all figuratively Blond(e) on IR©.

What I need to do right now (and I would love if you do the same) is take a step back and test as many assumptions that means will allow.

I expect to post my experiments and findings here. Please contact me with any research you have completed.

And yes, I am a blonde.

Illusions or Paranormal?

I had the pleasure of attending the Magic Castle with some great people. As Ed (my “prom date” on the right of the group photo below) said, “Growing up in Southern California you hear rumors of the Magic Castle. It is like the Bigfoot of LA.”

Although I have been reading a great deal, the epiphany came while on the adventure at Magic Castle. How many “paranormal” photographs are illusion? Angle, lighting and perspective can all play into creating something that is not real.

It just got me thinking……
