The publisher of George Turner Paranormal Magazine

David was born in 1954 in Suffolk, Virginia, but moved to Delray Beach, Florida, in the fall of 1963, where he first became interested in the paranormal. In 1965, his next door next door neighbor, Fred W. Grosstuck, a retired college professor and pattern maker, gave him a book called "Adventures in the Paranormal", essentially a collection of short stories of events from all over the world that were scientifically unexplainable. Fred also introduced him to Fate magazine. He proceeded to read every book about the paranormal he could get his hands on. He participated in the exploration of his first "haunted house" at the age of 17 in Boynton Beach, Florida.

He received his B.S.E.E. in 1973 while serving in the Air Force, in microwave technology. In November of 2007 he received his Masters in Electronic Engineering in Digital Signal Processing. In 1978 he was certified as an audio engineer and in 1985 as an acoustic engineer. David worked in the entertainment industry as a Technical Director, Lighting Designer and Audio Engineer for over twenty years. He retired from the University of Florida in 2001. Currently David is Manager of Public Address Communications Technologies and Director of the Audio Research and Development Lab for the third largest public transportation corporation in the nation. He is currently working on his doctorate in physics.

David is a professional member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Audio Engineering Society, the International Frequency Sensor Association, and is also affiliated with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. He was recently invited to join the Mathematics Association of America.

David began his research into the paranormal professionally in 1976, and has investigated cases scientifically from Rhode Island to Key West, Florida. David has experimented with both scientific as well as metaphysical techniques in his study of unexplained occurrences. Over the course of his research he was able to confirm EVP was not related to sound by the use of a Bell Jar, a vacuum pump, a Shure dynamic microphone and a TEAC A-4010S Reel to Reel recorder. Due to several encounters of a very negative nature from 1985-87, he made the decision to concentrate on the scientific research concerning the phenomena, and not the metaphysical aspects of the events. In 1992 David formed a new organization, Scientific Paranormal Investigative Research Information and Technology (S.P.I.R.I.T.), and began a long and painstaking process of collecting, building and focusing a battery of hi-tech instrumentation to concentrate on laboratory and field experimentation to search for the cause of paranormal phenomena. By 1998 his focus of research had narrowed to phenomena specific to “Hauntings”.

His primary focus since 1998 has been EVP research, employing his background of audio engineering and psychoacoustics. In 2005 David successfully linked electromagnetic fields as the primary source of EVPs. In 2010 he discovered that paranormal related EMF was an emergent phenomenon. This has led him to develope a wormhole hypothesis associated with a paranormal event horizon. He continues to look for answers in science for paranormal phenomena.

David's additional areas of research includes investigating the relationship between free air conductance, magnetic fields, radioactive emissions, electromagnetic fields and other electrical radiation surrounding paranormal phenomena. He is also experimenting with injecting energy into a paranormal event horizon using Tesla Coil technology in order to observe and record the effects. He continues to measure the effects of massive ion bombardment in a paranormal environment. He is developing a device designed to capture and analyze the phenomena referred to as orbs in order to either prove or dismiss their existence. David is also experimenting with a self designed ITC (Interdimensional Trans-Communications) device using electromagnetic field...

Dustin Pari | Biography

So, who am I? I could sit here and tell you that throughout my life I have witnessed many extraordinary people struggle against incredible odds. I could tell you that my life has been so difficult, and at times emotionally crippling that I doubted my own survival. I could tell you anything and spin it to be motivational. But I must be honest. Things have been okay. Some days have been full of wonder and pure happiness- days I wish would never end. Other days I just want to go to bed and dream my troubles away until tomorrow. Truly I am no different than anyone else. None of us are. If you have that beautiful and unique snowflake line running through your head, you might as well let that image melt away right now as that is the first hurdle you will face on your path to living an inspired life. You must admit to yourself that at our core, we are all the same.

We may be struggling against different circumstances- but at the core, we are the same. We may be set in different financial brackets- but at the core, we are the same. We may possess different abilities and talents- but at the core we are the same. All of us go through similar battles at one time in our life or another. The people are different, the circumstances are slightly misarranged – but at the core, it’s all the same.

We all experience loss, betrayal, sadness and moments of pure injustice. Sadly, these things must exist. What is even more disconcerting is the development of a subculture who wears their misery on their shirtsleeves, always championing their own issues as more troublesome than those of the people around them, for no one can have it worse off than they do. Misery is their crown and they will fight for it.

Despite all of this… the realities of negativity, darkness, and injustice, there are truly some awe inspiring moments in life of wonder, joy and love. However, in our 9-5 world…and probably more accurately, our working two jobs just to get by world… we often fail to notice the good things. We live through unhealthy comparison, so that even on those rare occasions when we glimpse happiness- it is not as impressive as what someone else has, so our happiness is self-negated. For many, the world consists of only them, their struggles, their problems, and their entitlement. They cannot see beyond the screen of their cell phone. As a society, many are simply losing focus.

So, who am I? I am someone that wakes up every morning and believes that I can change the world for at least one person and make a difference each and every day. I stand for appreciating the little things in life. I don’t forget those things that made me happy as a child, as a matter of fact- I make a point of searching those things out and celebrating them every single day.

Our lives are a long journey, and the magnitude of that journey can be very daunting and even oppressive at times. We need to change the way we look at everything. We need to break down our lives into tangible fragments. Not years, not months, not weeks, days or even hours… we need to break our lives down into mere moments. Each moment in itself holds great possibility. Each moment holds both the opportunity for happiness or sadness. Each moment clutches within itself a pearl of inspiration that is there for the taking, should you choose to see value in it. By managing these moments, and appreciating them, you will change your life forever and learn to live an inspired life; and I am the guy who wants to help you do so. Be Inspired!

Guest hosts Niki and Jen talk to Jim Malliard of The Malliard Report while Wes is away due to the death of his father.

Paranormal researcher and physical medium, Amy Allan works with retired Homicide Detective Steve DiSchiavi on The Dead Files, to solve unexplained paranormal phenomena in haunted locations across America.

In this series, Amy uses her abilities to communicate with the dead, often assuming their role and reliving their death; while Steve uses his years of detective experience to search for physical evidence. When the two investigators come together to share their findings, the parallels between their discoveries are powerfully revealed.

Amy's interest in paranormal phenomena began at age four when she says she was tormented by “shadow people” in her Arvada, CO home. Since then, she's been on a journey to unravel the mysteries of the unexplained.

Amy’s abilities have been studied and tested by leading para-psychologists. She has worked with private investigators, police agencies and has conducted more than 350 investigations in both private homes and businesses.

Amy studied Psychology at the University of Arizona and was mentored by world-renowned Para-psychologist, Dr William Roll.

Ashley O'Brien was born in Rochester, NY. She was the second of three children and a native of the 19th ward. She's now a wife and mother of three children, living in the Buffalo, NY area. She spends her free time developing her natural abilities and working with the Greater Western New York Paranormal Society.

As a child Ashley believed that she was visited by entities. She believes that her first encounter was at the age of six. Not knowing that these visits were unnatural, she continued to interact with them. As she aged and realized that she was having other-worldly experiences, she suppressed her abilities for fear of being ostracized from her community and family.

As an adult Ashley struggled to ignore the abilities that she felt were a part of her since childhood, fearing that she was ill. An encounter with a psychic medium confirmed to Ashley that she had a special gift. With support of her family and friends, Ashley embraced her talent. Looking for a space to hone her skill, Ashley discovered the GWNYPS. With the help of founders Dan Klas and Cameron Daboin, she was able to work with her ability and was provided a forum to help others looking for closure, or who were trying to make sense of unexplained activity.

Ashley is now an investigator with the Greater Western New York Paranormal Society and a regular on their web series Behind the Shadows.

Former Filler co-host Jen Anderson comes on to talk about her own show, Everything Very Paranormal, and her move to the Paranormal iCon.
