CRAPPY HALLOWEEN?

Ah, halloween is here again. Time when children and some goofy adults dress up in costume and attempt to extort various residents for candy, treats, money, or more.

For those who give, they are spared, for those who don't, they get toilet paper in their trees, eggs on their cars and a flaming bag of dog poop on their porch.

Seems to me it is easier to give a piece of candy to one of these oompa loompas in training then to have to clean up a mess.

Do spirits really become more active on halloween.

Simply the answer is no.

Don't believe the myths.

Some nights we investigate and catch nothing, the next night we catch something at the location. Ghost hunting can be kind of a crap shoot.

But beats cleaning burning crap off your porch!

Happy Halloween

WHY DOES NEW MEXICO SUCK IT !??

WHY DOES NEW MEXICO SUCK?In my opinion, New Mexico is a nice state. However, when it comes to trying to investigate places there, they seem to not want anything to do with Texas paranormal teams.There are some fly by night paranormal groups out there that do such a crappy job, that it ruins it for other legit teams as ourselves.This apparently is the case for New Mexico.Damn shame too as there are alot of cool places there.Now our problem in Amarillo, is being in the Bible Belt. Though many folks have a hunch something might be going on in their home or business, they refuse to allow a team to come in and check it out, as their religion seems to keep them from doing so.

A WEIRD AND WONDERFUL PLACE

Recently I had the great satisfaction of visiting the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, Ca.What a wild place. I am not going to go into the history of the Mansion, but if you do not know about it, look it up. I had read some reviews that cameras were not allowed , however, this was not the case. Not only did they encourage cameras, but invited us to use emf meters and any other items we wanted. We experienced some cold spots and battery drainage in the basement, however, never got that weird feeling of being watched. Took some digital photos until those batteries drained, and switched to 35mm film camera, still waiting on film developing on that.Incredible place to go to . There were several tours going on , so evp was of no regard. Nothing on digital, so we will see when the film comes in, in any event, if you ever get the chance, check it out. More reviews to come on Alcatraz Island, the old Goldfield hotel in Nevada, and some other interesting points of note.

THE GHOST OF SANTA CLAUS

For over 100 years ago, the big jolly old fat man in a red suite, aka, Santa Claus, has been flying over the world every December 24th, dumping toys and other goodies on homes everywhere.

Since no one lives much over 100 years anymore, especially back in those days, then Santa must actually be a ghost. No wonder I never see him ! I stay up late at night, waiting in anticipation for this mystical magic man to show up, but somehow, I always miss him.

Occasionally every year during my all nighter on Christmas eve, I dose off. Seems that in this short period of time , the man called Saint Nick seems to know that and has made a fast dash in and out of my home.

This guy is truly paranormal!!!!! How can he do this? Kids wait for him, but no one ever sees him.

This year I'm setting up my infra red cameras, turning on all my recorders, using my emf meters, etc,, I am going to see if I can solve the mystery once and for all of how this guy manages to sneak in and out un-noticed.

Until my next report on the results of this investigation, Please have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the entire team at North West Texas Paranormal Investigators !

TAPS

OK, is it just me or has the TAPS team been using what I call the "Predator cam" a little too much recently? It seems their becoming more focused on using the K2 meter and the Predator cam as evidence instead of the more reliable tape recorders and regular night vision cameras. We know the Predator cam is one of the must unreliable pieces of equipment to use...they spoke of this the first couple of times they used it. Now, you never see them without it. OK, I won't hate on them too much. Some groups are lucky enough to have their picture taken with them. Maybe I'm just jealous? ;D

WELCOME HOME Tim!

I wanna be the first to welcome our dear team member (hell, maybe more like our co-co-founder?) Tim back! I'm glad you had a safe trip and look forward to catching up with you. Did you happen to go on any ghost tours while you were gone? We certainly have missed your smart ass ways...we should be having a meeting soon. Let's get together and talk about Roswell as well as some haunted places in New Mexico. Have a great weekend and welcome back my friend!
