Florida Paranormal Research, Where You Become Part Of The Investigation

About The Founder	Mission Statement
I am the founder and Director of Florida Paranormal Research and The White Noise Paranormal Network. I have been interested in the paranormal my entire life. I have spent the last 20 years listening to Coast to Coast AM at night and dreaming about the possibilities. Now we have reached a point technologically where we can actually detect the other side. I decided to start Florida Paranormal Research because I felt that the Ghost Hunting community was not using a wide enough array of technology. I feel that the only proof that skeptics are going to believe is something captured by technology. We have based our entire methodology on technological saturation. We feel that if one camera will do then 5 will do much better. We generally deploy more than 10 cameras on a single investigation. We use many recording and sensing devices and generally take home more than 40G of data in pictures, video, and audio. I am really passionate about this quest for knowledge. I started Florida Paranormal Research in an effort to make breakthroughs in the Paranormal Field. We are not Ghost Hunters. We work with and support them, however. Our groups focus is divided into 3 categories. First Research and Development of new technologies, methodologies, and procedures that will produce more definitive results. Second conduct scientifically valid historical research and field investigations of locations where activity is said to be occurring. Third, to publish our work in a manner that will be interesting and informative to the general public. I call this the Paranormal Trifecta. We currently have members working in all of these three areas as well as an Administrative Team lead by Virginia Walters, to achieve our overall mission. We are currently expanding our Research and Development Department. Current experiments and projects include, EMF field generation, the use of multiple and variable light frequencies, introduction of sound into an environment, changing environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, etc. We are also working with highly sensitive microphones, IR night cameras, low LUX cameras, as well as the Paranormal PUCK, multiple KII’s, and an array of atmospheric and electromagnetic sensing and monitoring equipment. We try something new on every investigation. Many times we have 5 or 6 different experiments running in different areas of the structure during a single night. We will continue to change our methods, equipment, or procedures until we find something that works!! Our investigations are managed by Gary Walters who is my Lead Investigator. He operates all investigations on a predefined command structure. Members are assigned responsibilities and tasks as well as investigative duties. Evidence is captured and secured following a scientific control procedure to preserve it’s validity. Copies of all evidence are retained by the Senior Staff the moment the Investigator returns to the command post. Any discoveries are compared to the original and the first copy for verification. Investigations are broadcast live in most cases and all evidence is hosted and posted on The White Noise Forum in its raw form. We feel that it is very important to spread the word about our work and our findings. We have developed the philosophy, Progress through Cooperation, not Competition. We feel that it is the only way to complete the research. You must publish your work! To that end we have created and expanded The White Noise Forum, a forum designed to bring the public, ghost hunters and paranormal researchers together in a multi tear, open format, discussion forum with complete file support and extended featured. It has taken off… In the first year we have registered more than 5,000 members and we now have five official teams on board and others contributing. We then started the White Noise Broadcast Network (www.ghostshow.net). I Host Saturday Night Paranormal on Saturday Nights at 10pm. Eastern on our network, The White Noise Broadcast Network. The past shows can be seen at that site using the on demand button on player #1. We carry programming including Live Ghost Hunts, live experiments, guests, and we cover all topics paranormal, with a majority of the programming devoted to Hauntings, Spiritual Interactions, and Energy Relationships. My group now includes 15 local members. We receive more than 500 unique hits a day on our family of websites. We have ghost hunters and paranormal researchers from around the US on the show each week to offer opinion and update the viewership on what they have found and where they are going next. Our goal is to network as many serious teams and groups as possible, to put as many minds as possible in the loop. I am very passionate about the paranormal. I am very selective of who actually becomes an investigator with our team. I am only looking for people who are passionate and are on the same quest for knowledge and truth that I am. I do not extend membership to hobbyists and thrill seekers, only Passionate Researchers, Scientists, Investigators, and Technicians. I expect a lot from my members as we are a very active research and investigations unit. Many people who join find that it is too much for them and others never make it through the long process. We want people who have drive and ambition and are willing to put in the long hours, and they are hard to find. I am proud of what we have achieved. We have a successful website, forum, broadcast and now a Newsletter. Ian J. Hickin (HurricaneIan)	Florida Paranormal Research is a non for profit organization, researching the paranormal in Florida. We bring professionalism and confidentiality to each investigation. We understand that calling a team to investigate your private home or property is not an easy decision. Above all else, we respect your right to privacy. We will be using highly sensitive recording devices in an attempt to capture evidence of paranormal activity. The images and audio that we capture will only be released with the homeowner or property owner's permission. We will not share or publish any of the evidence captured outside our group if this is the desire of the owner. Before we began each case we discuss a comfortable level of disclosure with the property owner. We agree on the terms and then proceed with the investigation. Following the investigation the evidence collected is shown to the property owner. Again we ensure a comfort level with the property owner regarding any material that will be released about the investigation. We are not amateurs, or beginners. Our team members have been trained and vetted by the founder of Florida Paranormal Research. We do not allow untrained personnel to operate unless they are accompanied by an experienced investigator. Again our primary goals are comfort for the owner and residents involved and paranormal understanding. We will bring a levelheaded and comfortable atmosphere into your property, taking care of the most important thing, your discomfort. During this process we will try to help you understand the nature of the problems being observed. We will try to supply you with the information you need to understand why this is happening and how little danger is actually involved. We will begin by listening to your experiences and concerns. We will then perform a walk through with you, giving an opportunity to hear about each room and the experiences witnessed there. Then we will set up a wide range of equipment, including video, audio, and motion sensing units. We will then use teams of 2 or 3, equipped with handheld sensing devices to try to recreate and debunk personal experiences in an attempt to find good evidence either for or against paranormal activity. We will then share our findings with the owner and come to a conclusion. Following the completion of our research we will gladly provide you with a copy of our official findings as well as any recorded evidence. The conclusion of an investigation is not the end of our relationship with our clients. We will always be there to answer any additional questions or to reinvestigate the location at a future time. We Do All Of This Free Of Charge. We will not accept any money for this service whatsoever. All expenses will be covered by membership dues and outside donations. Clients are not asked for donations or funds of any kind. We understand the fear and the seriousness of each situation. We are after all, normal people, investigating the paranormal. Our team members all have regular jobs, we conduct meetings, training, and investigations on our time off. If you need answers to your ghostly problems, call us, we can help!
