Upcoming site visit: Prospect Place

On May 11, 2011, we published the article, “Mystery and murder at Prospect Place,” where we detailed the dark and eventful history of the family that built and resided in the estate. Prospect Place has gained national prominence for its hauntings and has appeared on several national ghost hunting television shows. In addition, we announced our upcoming site visit, which will take place on the evening of July 7th, 2011. A more lengthy review of the site can be read on our blog, Reaching Through the Ether, where we will also post live updates, pictures and videos of our experiences. Next week’s Examiner article will also review our experience; however, the more detailed information will only be provided on the blog due to space limitations. So, please join us and, on the chance we are not heard from again, find out what happened.

Our Mission

What we hope to accomplish is twofold. First, we aim to understand the background and mythology that led to the belief that a paranormal event has taken place in a particular location. On a micro-level, we want to understand the individual making the claims and on a macro-level, we want to follow the nature of the evolving meme that has been created in a community of people holding a given belief. This is as equally interesting as to whether or not an “event” actually took place. This is meant to go beyond whether an old pipe is pretending to be a ghost. Second, we, of course, want to determine the validity of the paranormal events being explored. Here, the balance of the skeptic and the believer will be used to shed light on whether or not there are really paranormal events reaching out to us from the ether.

Our Process

Before going out to a site, we will do the prep and due diligence. We will announce our project and the date of the site visit. In the days or weeks leading up to the site visit, we will research the event, the location and those involved to the best extent possible. Our research will then be shared with all of you who honor us with your readership. Some information – videos, audio recording, writings, etc. – will be shared as we are in the process of the site visit. Depending on the nature of “the event,” additional follow-up research may continue and, of course, be shared. We thank you and look forward to taking all of you on this journey with us!
