Think outside the Paranormal Box - Written by Ted Van Son
Paranormal Research is always moving forward to find NEW ways to get to a piece of the puzzle, to find a lead to solving the Mystery of life after death. This book will open the possibilities of lost techniques and some new ones. Why spend hundreds of dollars on Paranormal or Ghost Hunting equipment when your kitchen drawers and closets may hold some very unique and simple tools. Some of these ideas take the human element out of the experiment. With advancements in our research slowing, this book briefly brings back the thought of using some simple " Old School " ideas to continue forward while opening our imaginations to past ideas & techniques that could have been used to capture a glimpse of evidence. 2/2019

Ted " Wolfe " Van Son Jr
Founder/ President / Host on Paratalkradio.com / Author
Ted has been investigating the paranormal since 1985. It started when he was a teen and it continues to this day. Somethings that sets Ted apart from most other paranormal investigators, is his ability to work hand in hand with his clients centering on the empathy he feels for each and every one. Sometimes they become like family. His unique, down to earth, no non-sense attitude quickly shows his separation from the norm. Ted has a skeptical belief in the paranormal as a whole. He also has a hard time believing in the whole " Inter-dimensional, science-fiction " most teams quickly claim as fact. The claims of possession , orbs, demons, and extreme supernatural comments or theories he believes is fear from those that don't understand the true field or its television creation for ratings. In his years of being an investigator Ted has never found himself face to face with something so evil or demonic. He also has never encountered the feeling of being possessed or being attacked.
Ted has appeared on Destination America & TRVL Channel Television episodes of Paranormal Survivor and recently Ghost Nation premiering on Oct 11th on TRVL. He has also been a guest on Coast to Coast with George Noory.
Ted is available for most events including Television Appearances,Para-cons, Para-festivals, Book signings and Lectures and more. Since the early 1990's Ted has consulted many individuals and teams in New York State. He believes through education the distance of finding the truth is one step closer. Everyone in the field has something to offer one another, reach out and join others in the field to gain steps toward the truth.

Nichole FarrellNichole is a home manager who enjoys spending time in the heart and soul of her home; the kitchen. You can find her cooking for her family or baking sweet treats for special occasions. She also can create her own recipes on a whim. She has two children. Nichole became interested in the paranormal at a very young age when she saw a UFO across the street from her home. From that point on, she was fascinated by the paranormal. She started reading science fiction magazines, books about ghost hauntings, and folklore. Since her early twenties Nichole started experiencing “ghostly happenings “ such as hearing strange noises, and disembodied voices, smelling odd odors, witnessing objects move on their own, rapid temperature changes, and occasionally see apparitions. These experiences have sparked her interest in the paranormal even further. Nichole joined Genesee Valley Paranormal Investigators to develop her investigation skills further, and be part of a paranormal team that has a little dash of “out of the ordinary”, a tablespoon of “weirdness”. A quarter cup of “craziness “, a half cup of “bad-ass”, and a whole cup of “awesomeness “. |
