Beyond Ghosts aka "Para-historians"

That's right, you heard it first (maybe) right here folks, Beyond Ghosts is more, much more in fact, then simply a group of paranormal investigators or just an internet based radio show. Beyond Ghosts is proud of the fact that although we are also those things mentioned above, we are first and foremost, and most importantly, a new breed of preservationists!

Beyond Ghosts offers others a chance to get involved in paranormal investigations and research at a cost. A cost you say? Yes, a minor figure which goes to benefit the host location of each AND every event or program we put on. Really? YES, really. But that's merely the up front benefit of working with us, there is a greater method to our madness and thankfully it's catching on like wildfire.

We get to educate others, teach them, about the historic locations we've "investigated" while looking to gather evidence of paranormal phenomena or research claims of perceived supernatural occurrences. Huh? Well it's really rather simple. Beyond Ghosts goes somewhere and conducts a professional investigation, sometimes for a single night, sometimes for a few nights to a week. We collect as much data as possible, separating the fact from fiction, and we make sure we have the location's story down cold. That's where the fun part begins.

At this point it's no longer about "Do ghosts exist?" or, "Is my place haunted?, it then becomes a situation where a building or a property takes on a life of its own and speaks! The focus is the location and its story. And Beyond Ghosts tells it, using the paranormal as a popular theme, ensuring these places are not easily forgotten in this age of modern technology or bust. Pretty clever stuff, and Beyond Ghosts are indeed pioneers in this respect.

We've helped to raise close to thirty thousand dollars for the Buffalo Central Terminal in Buffalo, NY, along with the WNY ghost Hunters, our sister group, and nearly five thousand for the historic Van Horn Mansion in Burt, NY. A few others places have recently signed on, and we'll disclose the details at a later date (hold on to your seats!).

"Para-historians" tell of history utilizing the paranormal and paranormal investigations as the backdrop. Since we still lack the ever elusive "time machine" needed to go back in time ourselves and take a "look see," endeavors such as those put forth by Beyond Ghosts will have to suffice, save for going to the local history museum.
