Tammy Krichmar

The paranormal started to intrigue Tammy after experiencing loss within her own family. She just couldn’t fathom the thought that after we pass “this is it, this is all there is”. It just didn’t make any sense to her. “Everything is energy, and after a person passes, where does that energy go, what happens to our souls?”

This question recently started her journey into the investigation of the paranormal. Tammy has been an entrepreneur her entire life, starting with owning her own business at the age of 16. Married to her best friend Jeff, the two of them have raised 3 children and are grandparents to 4 and still counting.   “At this point of my life I’d like to know what else is out there, and if I can help people along the way, that makes my life that much better”.

Tammy is also a member of the Warren Legacy Foundation for Paranormal Research.

Jerri Holt

As long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the paranormal. After growing up in a haunted house in Iowa, I continued to have countless experiences in almost every place i’ve lived across the states. This has led me to continue my search to explain the events that occurred there and expand my knowledge in all areas of the unexplained, as well as diving into my own spirituality.  My focus is historical and residential hauntings, but I also have a keen interest in cryptids, as well. This truly is a passion of mine and i’m so excited to be able to help and put my passion to good use. In addition to investigating, I’m also a big fan of the horror genre, love going to the mountains, have a son I adore, and work in housing and travel.

Renee Hill

Renee has a strong passion for the paranormal and capturing evidence of communicating with spirits, as well as a love for the history of each location she investigates. She has been a paranormal investigator for over 11 years, investigating some of the most haunted places all over the US. Some of which include the Washoe Club, the Queen Mary, Bobby Mackeys and Waverly Hills Sanatorium, to name a few. Her interest in the paranormal came from a childhood experience where a female spirit made her presence known to her on several occasions. This included levitating objects, hearing audible wailing, and even slamming a door shut locking her in when there was no lock on the door. Never forgetting these experiences when she was a child, she always had an interest and belief in the spiritual world. So when Renee met a paranormal team called Ghost Posse, and was asked to join the team she said yes. After her first investigation where she saw a ball move while four K2 electromagnetic meters lit up simultaneously all around it, she was hooked. During her many investigations she discovered that she is an empath, with an ability to feel spirit energy and presence as well as the emotions left imprinted on a location and spirits seem drawn to her sweet and motherly nature. She eventually left the team and went off on her own traveling and joining many other teams on their investigations and learning from each different methods, tools and ideas of investigating. She now implements all of these skills as she continues her passion investigating the spiritual relm.

Robert Hofmann

I am an Administrative Supervisor for a Psychiatric Treatment Facility with a Bachelor’s in Psychology. I have a history of over 20 years in business and management. I am currently seeking to attain my Master’s Degree in Psychology.

My interest in the paranormal comes from a combination of influences in my life. I have always had some type of paranormal activity surrounding me. Whether it be something of my own experience or that of a friend or within the community. I have always had sense or feeling of being in tune with nature and my surroundings. At one point I found that, the emotions I was feeling were not mine, but how others felt who were around me. This led to questions of how the mind works and asking myself was this a mental health issue or was it something else. At the same time I would learn all I could about the occult, new age, and paranormal as it seemed that my questions and curiosity would find more questions with every one that I answered. My life is one spent searching for answers to the unknown and trying to understand how the mind (among other things) works or can be.

Paranormal Investigator, Researcher, Psychic Medium

Michelle Barker

My abilities as a psychic medium started at the age of five. This gift runs in my family and has been traced back to my great, great grandmother.

I, like many other people, kept this gift a secret for fear of ridicule and judgment. I did not even share it with my immediate family. As time passed, I could no longer keep it to myself as I was being followed by spirits who wanted to convey a message or needed my help. In 2015, I decided that I could no longer deny my gift and have been involved with documented paranormal investigations of homes and businesses since.

I am originally from Huntsville AL. but have lived most of my life in Georgia. I am a mother of four and spend everyday life working at an engineering company located in Kennesaw, GA. I have been able to help fellow employees out with their paranormal concerns over the past 35 years of being employed there. I use my Christian faith to help guide me along this journey of helping people navigate life and death. My goal is to help the living and the dead find peace and rest.

Paranormal Investigator, Researcher

Kelly Ladd

Kelly’s interest in the paranormal began at an early age when her family rented a house while their own home was being built. During their time in that house, they encountered numerous unexplained phenomena that left a lasting impact on the entire family. Objects would mysteriously disappear from one room and reappear in another, or never be found again. They witnessed a rocking chair moving on its own, heard unexplained voices, experienced knocking at the front door with no one there, and felt a constant sense of being watched. Even her skeptical father, who had been dismissive of paranormal claims, was affected by these disturbing occurrences. Eventually, the activity became so intense that her father decided to break the lease, and the family moved to another rental house several miles away.

These experiences, coupled with what Kelly describes as a “strong sixth sense,” ignited her curiosity and passion for the paranormal. She embarked on a journey of learning and exploration, delving into books, conducting research, and engaging in investigations. As a paranormal investigator and researcher, Kelly is driven to seek answers through various investigative methods and experimentation. Over the past 2+ years, she has conducted fieldwork in a range of locations, from residential homes experiencing unexplained phenomena to historical sites and landmarks deeply connected to the past.

One of Kelly’s greatest joys is assisting people who have had paranormal experiences. Her own encounters with the unknown have enabled her to empathize deeply with clients, understanding firsthand how the mysterious can evoke fear. When interacting with clients, her primary concern is their well-being, ensuring they feel supported and safe throughout the process.

In addition to her investigative work, Kelly has developed a keen interest in divination, particularly through the use of dowsing rods and pendulums. She finds these tools to be valuable assets in her pursuit of understanding and uncovering hidden truths in the paranormal realm.

Furthermore, Kelly brings over 32 years of experience as an accomplished Healthcare Executive Manager to her pursuits. Throughout her career, she has engaged in numerous educational presentations and publications in leadership and business operations, showcasing her expertise beyond the paranormal field.

As a testament to her dedication and expertise, Kelly is a proud member of the Warren Legacy Foundation for Paranormal Research. Being part of this renowned organization allows her to collaborate with fellow researchers, exchange knowledge, and contribute to the advancement of paranormal studies.

Overall, Kelly’s bio showcases her personal journey, from a young teenager encountering unexplained phenomena to becoming a passionate paranormal investigator and researcher. Her empathy, commitment to helping others, fascination with divination tools, and extensive experience in healthcare management make her a valuable asset in the pursuit of unraveling the mysteries of the paranormal world.

Matt Cable

I’ve always had a fascination with the Paranormal. As a kid on Halloween I’d wonder if there really were more spirits coming through that night and if I’d get to see one.  After having a few unexplainable experiences and talking to a close friend about his encounters with ghosts, I decided I’d look into it deeper if I ever got the chance.  Bill has given me that chance.  I’m looking forward to having some paranormal experiences and helping people deal with the ones they’re having.

Now, with an active “household,” she is investigating residential and historical sites, and takes a particular concentration on communicating with spirits, as well as the healing process.

Cassia’s great passion is healing people who have lost a loved one, find healthy perspectives of the afterlife, spirits, and strengthen their faith in continuous love so they can know themselves as peaceful, safe, and complete. No single approach is right for every individual, but being trained in multiple communication techniques, including channeling, pendulum work, third eye communication, as well as others, Cassia’s approach is aimed at helping and investigating the paranormal.

She has won awards in her academic field, as well as written multiple works, and founded a couple organizations. As a practicing sacerdos (priestess) in the polytheistic Roman community, she is capable of easing tensions, fear, and nervousness, and is trained with identifying types, names, and relationships of spirits.
