EVP Explorations

On tonight’s episode of EVP Explorations, Todd welcomed returning guest Christal Marie for a grounded, straight-forward conversation about preparing yourself long before you ever press record.
Christal walked us through the fundamentals:

• How to properly ground yourself before stepping into an active location
• How to set clear, disciplined intentions for any paranormal investigation
• How to use meditation as a practical pre-investigation tool, not a gimmick
• Why your mindset going in matters just as much as your equipment

Todd and Christal also discussed several critical techniques investigators should apply both prior to and during an investigation or EVP session, including staying mentally centered, keeping your emotional state stable, and maintaining control of the environment instead of letting the environment control you.

We touched on her work, her experiences, and the way her approach ties directly into spiritual protection, balance, and responsible field practice.

The episode streamed live on November 20th at 9e/8c/6p across YouTube, Twitch, and the EVP Explorations website, giving viewers a no-nonsense look at how to walk into any investigation with clarity, purpose, and discipline.

In tonight’s live EVP Explorations show, Todd opened up about the recent Facebook ordeal — the complete deletion of his personal profile, group, and pages. He shared exactly what happened, how Meta handled it, and what’s next as he begins rebuilding from scratch.
 
From there, Todd shifted focus to all the exciting new updates at EVP Explorations, including the redesigned course page at https://evpexplorations.com, the launch of the Final Master Course that unlocks after completing the first 29 free paranormal courses, and the brand-new live chat feature that’s bringing the community together in real time.
 
He also covered the ongoing support from Brodhead Manor, our proud sponsor making all 30 courses completely free to the public.
 
The night closed with one of our favorite segments — EVP Submissions — where Todd played and analyzed your EVP captures. And this week’s submissions were some of the best we’ve heard in a long time.

This Halloween week on EVP Explorations, Todd Bates welcomed James Annitto — a respected demonologist, author, and seasoned paranormal investigator with over two decades of experience. With a background in psychology and a lifelong study of the connection between the mind, life, and the afterlife, James brought a rare balance of scientific understanding and spiritual exploration to the discussion.
 
As founder of The Dominion Ministry and co-creator of Duo Daemonologie alongside Carl L. Johnson, James has dedicated his life to investigating and educating others on the realities of demonic phenomena, possession, and the human condition behind the paranormal. His extensive career has included national and international lectures, including a recent tour through Romania exploring the dark origins of the Dracula legend.
 
The show began with a conversation about paranormal investigations and the use of technology in research, then transitioned into a powerful discussion on the psychological and historical dimensions of demonology. We concluded with an in-depth look at the negative — or “darker” — side of the paranormal, and James shared valuable insight on how to recognize the early warning signs of malevolent influence and protect yourself while investigating.

Tonight was all about you. Host Todd Bates led a community-driven night focused on your EVP captures—listening together, discussing methods, and sharpening analysis.

 EVP Explorations remained a true paranormal safe place where we learned from one another’s findings rather than criticized them.

Participants brought their best evidence, their questions, and their curiosity. The show featured a no-nonsense review of techniques—analog and digital—covering mic discipline, baseline controls, and how to separate pareidolia from a defensible capture without losing the spirit of exploration that defines EVP research.

This week, Todd welcomed David Oman, owner of The Oman House—a modern home built roughly 150–200 feet from the former 10050 Cielo Drive property linked to the 1969 Tate murders. Oman’s residence had earned a reputation for persistent activity and had been featured on major paranormal series including Ghost Adventures, Ghost Hunters, and Paranormal Witness.
 
Together, they dug into the history of the site, Oman’s firsthand accounts, and the evidence collected by visiting teams. They also discussed his book Ghosts of Cielo Drive and how living at the location led to the indie film House at the End of the Drive.
 
The show streamed live on Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, Rumble, Kick, and at EVPExplorations.com. Listeners brought their questions, especially about methodology, controls, and how to separate legend from documentable events.
