He talks with witnesses, researchers, investigators, and experts while remaining willing to question both conventional explanations and extraordinary claims.He isn’t interested in chasing a legend just for the sake of saying he found one.

The Séance Parlor is a cozy paranormal podcast hosted by husband-and-wife duo Drew and Amy, where ghost stories, haunted history, strange places, and the unexplained all have a seat at the table.Part storytellers, part ghost hunters, and full-time curious people, Drew and Amy approach the paranormal with open minds, a healthy dose of skepticism, and a sense of humor. The show digs into the history behind hauntings and legends while asking the questions that make these stories so fascinating in the first place—without trying to force every creaking floorboard into becoming a ghost.Now, The Séance Parlor is stepping beyond the microphones and into the locations themselves. Upcoming episodes will follow Drew and Amy on paranormal investigations as they explore reportedly haunted places, uncover the stories connected to them, and document what happens when the research ends and the lights go out.Whether they’re swapping ghost stories behind the microphones or wandering through a dark building with cameras, flashlights, and probably too much equipment, the heart of the show stays the same: stay curious, respect the story, and leave a little room for wonder.The Séance Parlor: pull up a chair. Things are about to get strange.#bigfoot #cryptids #ghost #paranormal YouTube: https://youtube.com/@theseanceparlorpod?si=jmYnYvqEM7H2FkD3Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033hg5sf5kIAA3klQ2s2P7?si=wCfoGPLXQiuxP3mhsHeuTA&utm_source=copy-linkInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theseanceparlorpod?igsi=MXg1eW9mYjBwMjdxMQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qrTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theseanceparlorpo?_r=1&_t=ZT-99JNC9sFLMUBeacons: https://beacons.ai/theseanceparlorpod

Roots and Early AwakeningBorn and raised in Carolina, Puerto Rico, Harold De La Matta grew up in a humble,open-minded household. His father held various spiritual perspectives, creating anenvironment where young Harold could freely embrace his early experiences seeingapparitions and unexplainable phenomena.Tragedy and Turning PointsAt the age of nine, Harold experienced a profound loss when his older brother passedaway in a motorcycle accident. In the years following the tragedy, his brother frequentlyvisited him in dreams, offering comfort, reassurance, and gentle reminders to cherishthe good times.The weight of the loss rippled through the family, ultimately leading to his parents’divorce when Harold was fifteen—a strain that permanently altered the family’sdynamic.

My name is Rita Olsen, and I am the Owner/operator of AZ Ghost Adventures.We are a Team that conducts group and private Historically based Paranormal Investigations in locations throughout Arizona (and the country when possible!).I have experienced Paranormal as far back as I can remember, and as a child it was not uncommon to see things and/or people that I only realized later were not there. As I became older, I feared discussing these happenings because no one else I knew was experiencing these things. It would range from poltergeist activity, seeing shadow figures, having premonitions, seeing full body apparitions, to what I like to call “A movie going on in my head”, which basically means It’s like I can see what or who I am trying to communicate with and what the message is, but I’m not really seeing it… This is what led to my great interest in the Paranormal and metaphysical world. I also feel my purpose in this grand plan is ‘To tell their story, because it’s just as important and anyone else’s story’.Our team has a mission statement which I call our ‘Paraphilosophy’, and a few of the main tenants of our Paraphilosophy is that ‘Everyone experiences the paranormal differently’, and ‘Respect the location & spirits no matter what their history is’. It is through applying this and our other guidelines that we feel we can best communicate with the Spirits. Also, by following the practice of showing no judgement and to never antagonize, the Spirits are more apt to communicate with us to tell us their story. I also work in Occupational Therapy with a background in behavioral and mental health, and over the years have had many experiences with end-stage/dying patients who have experiences with Spirits coming to them before they pass. I have also had experiences with Spirits that reside in the locations I have worked at - even seeing one of my patients that had just passed (I was not yet aware she had passed). I try to apply an evidence-based approach and my clinical training/background in my Investigations as I feel that having that level of empathy toward those that have passed, allows me to better communicate with them. My team is small and everyone that is on it brings something to the table insofar as abilities, this helps with having a well-rounded approach to helping others during our investigations. Our Investigations are interactive, and we do our best to help our Guest Investigators learn about not only the history of the locations, but to conduct a responsible investigation while also exploring abilities they may have (which is frequently the reason they attend our Investigations in the first place).

Mathew David Hart is a sensitive, channeler, empath and a Hollywood television and film producer who has been chronicling his adventures (and misadventures) with the unseen world ever since a spooky ghost encounter in March 1982 left him an unknowing victim of two spirit attachments at the age of 21.Over the course of the next 22 years, before Mathew finally discovered and released his attachments in 2004, Mathew struggled with the effects of the attachments including depression, disconnection, and anger issues. During that same period, Mathew had encounters with various divine spirit beings including Jesus, a spirit guide, a guardian angel and a group soul that identified itself as The Guardians of the Light. During those same years, Mathew also had encounters with dark beings such as ghosts and demons. In 2024, Mathew completed his memoir, Nine Ghosts. By openly and honestly sharing his personal story, Mathew seeks to shine a light on the unseen world, raise awareness about spirit attachment, and encourage people to follow the principles that Jesus taught. Namely, to love God, love yourself, treat others as you would like to be treated, don't judge, forgive, forgive, forgive, be of service, humble, and compassionate, be kind, generous and charitable, and pray for the welfare of others.When Mathew isn't writing or interacting with unseen beings, he enjoys traveling, developing new projects for the big and small screen, and spending time with his family.A selection of Mathew's film credits include, John Q, Undercover Brother, Take the Lead, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, and The Broken Hearts Gallery. Mathew's TV credits include Tell Me Lies (Seasons 1-3), Fargo (Season 4), Genius (Season 4), and All's Fair (Season 1).Website: mathewdavidhart.comTikTok: @mytrueghoststoriesInsta: @mytrueghoststories_"Nine Ghosts" book (U.S.): https://amzn.to/3RLVdpQ
