Where's "PPI Presents..." presentiing next?

THAT'S A WRAP!

Our lecture series on paranormal investigating has ended for the 2019 Halloween season. Thank you to all who attended this year. It was fun to meet all of you and enjoyable to hear your questions and reactions. We'll be back again in 2020. Till then, keep turning a skeptical eye.

Footsteps (a.k.a. Footfalls): A universal feature of many a ghost tale, disembodied footsteps are frequently included in reports of paranormal activity: a regular pattern of footfalls, often in another room or on a staircase, that sometimes causes witnesses to imagine intruders are in their homes. Footsteps and other anomalous sounds such as Knocks and Taps rally skeptics who call into question the physics of such phenomena and blame matrixing as the common culprit. Defenders of footsteps as a well and true paranormal phenomenon conjecture that it is an imprint of a residual haunting, or even that it is an indication of parallel dimensions. ?

Sharing Investigative Resources

As Pacific Paranormal Investigations proudly glances backward on its decade of volunteer investigative and educational outreach, we're also looking foward to the next generation of paranormal investigators. That's why we are opening our vaults and sharing with the public those investigative and organizational resources we we’ve worked very hard to develop these last ten years.
