Personal Appearances

Starting in October 2005, I began to make personal appearances at colleges in association with a company called Power Performers.  Power performers is an interesting company who provides public speakers on a variety of topics.  I am one of several people who can and do speak on the paranormal, as part of their college speakers program.   

My agreement with power performers covers colleges, not high schools or other groups.  So if you are interested in having me speak at your event, please contact me via my website, and I will be back in touch with you.

The History Channel used to have a weekly series on ghosts of America Called HAUNTED HISTORY. I was a consultant for an episode on the Pacific Northwest.  My episode is entitled Haunted History: Northwest.  This airs periodically.  Unfortunately the series is no longer in production and they show the episodes as filler.  

I recently expanded my online store, and now stock this episode.  If you want to order go here:  Haunted Northwest

On Saturday 24 May, I was a guest on Coast to Coast AM.  This was the longest radio broadcast I have ever done.  For those of you not familiar with Coast to Coast AM, this is Art Bell's radio program, revamped and renewed since his retirement.  If you are interested in listening to the broadcast, the radio program saves them as streaming audio.  You have to subscribe for around $7 a month to do downloads.
