When most people hear the word *vampire*, they think of Dracula, ancient castles, Transylvania, and dark European legends. But what if some of the strangest vampire stories in America can be found much closer to home?
In this episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, Joe and Jennifer Shortridge travel across Ohio in search of the state's mysterious vampire legends, strange newspaper accounts, disturbing historical stories, and folklore surrounding blood-drinking spirits and the restless dead.
Our journey begins in **Scioto County, Ohio**, with one of the most fascinating historical stories in the episode: the **Salladay family**. In the early 1800s, multiple members of the family died from what was then called consumption, now known as tuberculosis. As the deaths continued, surviving family members reportedly began to believe that something about one of their deceased relatives was responsible for the sickness. The grave was eventually opened, and a disturbing ritual was performed in an attempt to stop the deaths. Organs were removed from the body and burned. Was this an example of early American vampire folklore, or was a desperate family trying to understand a disease they couldn't explain?
Then Joe and Jennifer travel to **Van Wert**, where an old newspaper account tells of a frightening encounter involving a strange figure associated with a cemetery. The story contains elements remarkably similar to traditional European vampire folklore, including a mysterious creature connected to the dead.
The episode also takes us to **Columbus and the Ohio Penitentiary**, where we examine the bizarre story of **James Brown**, a real 19th-century prisoner who later became associated with the nickname "The Ohio Vampire." Historical accounts describe disturbing allegations involving blood and the deaths of sailors. But how much of the vampire story is actually supported by history, and how much developed through later retellings?
Then we dig into old **Cincinnati newspaper reports**, including strange stories of people supposedly attacked during the night, unexplained wounds, blood-drinking spirits, and even a mysterious animal accused of killing livestock and drinking their blood.
Were these genuine encounters with supernatural beings?
Were they misunderstood medical conditions, ordinary animals, exaggerated newspaper stories, or examples of folklore spreading from one community to another?
That's the mystery.
And that's what makes these stories so fascinating.
Joe and Jennifer also explore why vampire folklore became particularly powerful during times when people didn't understand diseases such as tuberculosis. When one family member died and others became sick, people naturally searched for an explanation. In some communities, the belief developed that the dead could somehow continue to drain the life from the living.
Ohio's vampire legends aren't necessarily evidence that supernatural vampires ever existed.
But they are evidence of something else: **people really did tell these stories.**
They appeared in newspapers. They became part of family histories. They were passed down through communities. And more than a century later, we're still asking the same question...
**What really happened?**
From the graves of Scioto County to the old streets of Cincinnati, from the Ohio Penitentiary to mysterious encounters in the darkness, this episode takes a journey into one of the strangest corners of Ohio's paranormal history.
So turn down the lights, settle in, and join Joe and Jennifer as they go hunting for...
**Ohio's Vampires.**
Because sometimes the legend is just a story.
And sometimes...
**the story refuses to stay buried.**

What if you went to sleep tonight in the world you know… and woke up tomorrow in a reality that looked almost exactly the same—but somehow wasn't?
On this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Joe and Jennifer Shortridge explore one of the strangest and most unsettling ideas in the paranormal world: people who claim they fell asleep and woke up in a different reality.
Imagine opening your eyes in the morning and immediately knowing something isn't right. Your bedroom looks familiar, but something is different. Your home seems to have changed. Your family remembers things differently. A familiar street doesn't look quite the same. Or perhaps you discover that your job, relationships, or even your entire life is different from the one you remember.
Tonight, we're looking at 10 extraordinary stories involving alleged reality shifts, alternate lives, strange awakenings, recurring dream worlds, and experiences that left people questioning what is actually real.
We'll begin with the famous story of Lerina García, who claimed that she woke up one morning to discover subtle but increasingly disturbing differences in her life. Her surroundings seemed familiar, yet important details didn't match what she remembered. Her story has become one of the most widely discussed accounts associated with the idea of waking up in a parallel reality.
From there, we'll explore stories of people who claim they woke up in completely unfamiliar lives, people who say they experienced entire lifetimes while asleep, and individuals who describe returning night after night to alternate worlds that seem to continue even while they're awake.
Could these experiences be evidence of parallel universes?
Or could there be more ordinary explanations?
Joe and Jen examine possibilities including lucid dreaming, false awakenings, hypnagogic and hypnopompic experiences, memory distortion, recurring dreams, sleep paralysis, and the fascinating phenomenon known as the Mandela Effect.
We'll also take a look at the growing online phenomenon of reality shifting, where people claim they can intentionally move their consciousness into a different reality through visualization, meditation, and sleep.
But there's an important question we keep coming back to throughout the episode:
What would happen if you woke up tomorrow and knew your world had changed—but nobody else noticed?
Would you trust your memories?
Would you trust the people around you?
Or would you begin searching for evidence that you had somehow crossed into another version of reality?
Of course, we also have to separate fascinating stories from established science. The existence of alternate realities remains a subject of theoretical discussion in physics, but there is currently no scientific evidence demonstrating that people can fall asleep in one universe and physically wake up in another.
And that's what makes these stories so fascinating.
We're not here to tell you what to believe.
We're here to explore the stories, examine the possibilities, and ask the questions.
Because sometimes the most unsettling paranormal experiences aren't about seeing a ghost or encountering a creature in the darkness.
Sometimes the most frightening possibility is much simpler:
What if you woke up tomorrow… and the world wasn't quite the same world you went to sleep in?
Join Joe and Jennifer Shortridge for another strange journey into the unexplained on the 222 Paranormal Podcast.
And before you go to sleep tonight…
take a good look around.
You might want to remember exactly what your world looks like.
Just in case.

The world of paranormal investigation has changed dramatically over the years. From television shows and radio programs to social media, podcasts, paranormal conventions, and independent investigation teams, the field has never been more visible. But with that increased attention comes an important question: Are paranormal investigations getting better—or are we simply getting better at talking about them?
On this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we sit down with Matt Slys, a paranormal investigator with 111 Paranormal and the former host of The S Files, where his experience behind the microphone gave him a unique perspective on both paranormal investigation and the people who make up this fascinating community.
Matt joins us for an honest and wide-ranging conversation about the current state of the paranormal community, what has changed over the years, and where paranormal investigation may be headed in the future.
We talk about what it really means to be a paranormal investigator today. With so many people investigating haunted locations, using sophisticated equipment, creating videos, producing podcasts, and sharing evidence online, the paranormal world has become more accessible than ever. But accessibility also creates challenges. How do investigators separate meaningful experiences from assumptions, misinterpretations, environmental factors, and outright misinformation?
We explore the importance of approaching investigations with an open mind while still maintaining a healthy level of skepticism. Is it possible to believe that something unexplained may be happening while also admitting that we don't always know what caused it?
Matt shares his perspective from his experiences with 111 Paranormal, discussing the investigation process, working as a team, documenting experiences, and the importance of evidence. We also look at the changing role of paranormal investigators and whether today's investigators have more opportunities—or more obstacles—than investigators did years ago.
Another major part of our conversation is the paranormal community itself.
The paranormal field is made up of investigators, researchers, authors, podcasters, radio personalities, convention organizers, haunted-location owners, experiencers, and countless people who simply have a fascination with the unknown. At its best, this community can bring people together, encourage research, preserve stories and history, and create opportunities to investigate questions that science hasn't completely answered.
But like any community, it also has disagreements, competing theories, different investigation philosophies, and occasionally controversy.
We discuss social media, the influence of paranormal entertainment, the rise of paranormal conventions and podcasts, and how the public's perception of paranormal investigation has evolved.
And because Matt has experience as a radio DJ and former host of The S Files, we also talk about the relationship between paranormal investigation and broadcasting. How do you take an investigation or unexplained experience and turn it into compelling entertainment without losing the story, the evidence, or the truth?
This isn't simply a conversation about ghosts.
It's a conversation about where paranormal investigation stands today.
Are investigators becoming more scientific? Are we relying too heavily on technology? Has social media helped the paranormal community—or hurt it? What makes a good investigation? And perhaps most importantly, what should the future of paranormal investigation look like?
Join Joe and Jennifer Shortridge of the 222 Paranormal Podcast as they sit down with Matt Slys for a fascinating discussion about investigations, evidence, technology, radio, paranormal entertainment, and the ever-changing world of the unknown.
Because there are still questions we can't answer.
And sometimes, the best investigation begins with simply being willing to ask them.

What happens when the worlds of mystery, spirituality, imagination, and the unexplained collide? On this episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, Joe and Jen sit down with author **Damaju Razen**, author of *Sleeping Swordsman Waking Buddha*, for a fascinating conversation that explores the ideas, inspirations, and deeper themes behind his work.
*Sleeping Swordsman Waking Buddha* is a unique title that immediately raises questions. What does it mean to be asleep and awake at the same time? What does the image of the swordsman represent? And what connection might there be between the warrior and the Buddha? These are the kinds of questions that make this conversation especially interesting for anyone fascinated by consciousness, spirituality, ancient traditions, mythology, and the unexplained.
During our conversation with Damaju, we take a closer look at his journey as an author and the ideas that helped shape *Sleeping Swordsman Waking Buddha*. We discuss the creative process behind the book and explore some of the concepts that inspired the story and its characters.
For the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, conversations like this are particularly exciting because the paranormal isn't limited to ghosts and haunted locations. The unexplained can take many forms—from strange experiences and ancient beliefs to consciousness, spirituality, mythology, and questions about what may exist beyond our everyday perception.
The title *Sleeping Swordsman Waking Buddha* itself provides plenty of room for exploration. The contrast between the swordsman and Buddha creates an intriguing combination of action, philosophy, awakening, and self-discovery. Throughout the interview, we explore some of these ideas and discuss how storytelling can provide another way of examining mysteries that have fascinated humanity for centuries.
Damaju also gives us insight into the world he has created and what readers can discover when they open the pages of his book. Whether you are interested in paranormal subjects, spiritual ideas, fantasy, mythology, or simply enjoy discovering unusual stories and perspectives, this episode offers plenty to think about.
As always, Joe and Jen bring their curiosity and love of the unexplained to the conversation. Rather than simply asking whether something is real or paranormal, the **222 Paranormal Podcast** often looks at the bigger questions: Why do people experience these things? Where did these beliefs originate? What can stories teach us about ourselves? And could there be more to our reality than what we experience every day?
Join Joe and Jen as they welcome **Damaju Razen** to the 222 Paranormal Podcast for a conversation about *Sleeping Swordsman Waking Buddha*, creativity, spirituality, mystery, and the fascinating ideas that exist somewhere between the known and the unknown.
Whether you're a longtime fan of the paranormal or someone who simply enjoys a good mystery, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

The 222 Paranormal Podcast hits the road and goes LIVE from the 2026 Cleveland Paracon! In this special episode, Joe and Jennifer Shortridge take you inside one of the most exciting gatherings of paranormal enthusiasts, investigators, authors, speakers, and curious minds in the region.
Instead of simply talking about the paranormal from the studio, this time we're bringing you the atmosphere, stories, and people we met right from the convention floor.
Cleveland has a long and fascinating relationship with the paranormal. From historic buildings and legendary locations to unexplained encounters and the investigators who continue to search for answers, the city provides the perfect backdrop for a weekend dedicated to everything strange, mysterious, and unexplained.
During this episode, we sit down with three fascinating guests, each bringing a different perspective and a different paranormal story to the conversation.
Our first interview is with Cindy from The Ross House. Cindy shares information about this historic location and the paranormal activity associated with it. We talk about the history of The Ross House, experiences that have taken place there, and what makes historic locations such intriguing places for paranormal investigators. As always, we let the stories speak for themselves and invite you to decide what you think may be happening.
Next, we talk with Amber, who tells us about the Collingwood Art Center. The Collingwood Art Center is one of Cleveland's fascinating historic locations, and Amber gives us an inside look at the building, its history, and the paranormal experiences connected to it. What happens when a building with decades of history becomes the setting for unexplained encounters? Amber shares some of the stories that have made the location so interesting to those fascinated by the paranormal.
Our third interview features Patience Moriah LeClair, who joins us to talk about her own paranormal encounters. Personal experiences can be some of the most compelling stories in the paranormal world because they often begin with something unexpected — a strange sound, an unexplained sighting, a feeling that something isn't quite right, or an experience that leaves someone searching for an explanation.
Patience shares her experiences with us and discusses what she encountered and how those experiences affected her.
And because this episode was recorded LIVE at Cleveland Paracon, you're getting more than just interviews. You're getting a taste of the convention itself — the people, conversations, stories, and excitement that make paranormal conventions such a great place to connect with others who share an interest in the unexplained.
For Joe and Jennifer, events like Cleveland Paracon are also an opportunity to meet listeners, talk with fellow investigators and researchers, record new interviews, and hear stories that might never make their way into a traditional studio conversation.
So turn down the lights, settle in, and join us as the 222 Paranormal Podcast goes LIVE from the 2026 Cleveland Paracon.
Three guests. Three different stories. Historic locations, unexplained experiences, and plenty of questions.
Is there something paranormal happening at these locations?
We'll let you listen and decide.

In this episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, Jennifer and Joe Shortridge take a deep dive into one of the most disturbing alleged hauntings in modern paranormal history—the story of the Ammons family and the small Gary, Indiana, home that would eventually become known around the world as the Demon House.
The story reportedly began in 2011 after the Ammons family moved into the house. What initially appeared to be an ordinary family home allegedly became the center of bizarre and frightening experiences. The family reported strange noises, unexplained footsteps, shadowy figures, swarms of flies appearing during the winter, and other disturbing activity.
But the story became even more unbelievable when the family's children reportedly began experiencing frightening and unusual behavior.
Police were called.
Medical professionals became involved.
Indiana's Department of Child Services investigated
And eventually, a Catholic priest entered the story.
Father Michael Maginot became involved with the family and reportedly performed religious rites and exorcisms connected to the alleged activity. Accounts of the case describe strange voices, unusual behavior, and incidents that witnesses interpreted as evidence of something far beyond an ordinary haunting.
But what really happened?
Were the Ammons family experiencing a genuine paranormal event?
Could psychological, environmental, or other natural explanations account for what happened?
Or was something truly supernatural affecting the family?
Jennifer and Joe explore both sides of the story without automatically accepting every paranormal claim as fact. Because one of the most important principles of paranormal investigation is this:
**Unexplained does not automatically mean supernatural.**
The case eventually attracted the attention of paranormal investigator Zak Bagans, who purchased the property and investigated it for his documentary **Demon House**. His experiences at the location added another layer to an already controversial case and helped transform the small house in Gary into one of the most famous alleged haunted locations in America.
Then came the bulldozers.
The house was demolished in 2016.
The structure that had allegedly been the center of so much frightening activity was gone.
But that raises one of the biggest questions of this episode:
**What happens to a haunting when the haunted house no longer exists?**
Did destroying the Demon House destroy whatever was believed to be inside it?
Could paranormal activity remain attached to the land
Did the activity follow the people who lived there?
Or did the reported experiences simply end when the family left?
Jennifer and Joe examine what is known about the former property and discuss whether there is credible evidence of ongoing paranormal activity at the location today.
The episode also looks at the difference between documented events, witness testimony, paranormal interpretation, and stories that have grown through years of internet retelling.
The Demon House case is ultimately more than a scary story. It is a fascinating collision of **paranormal investigation, religion, psychology, family experiences, witness testimony, and the unknown**.
The house may be gone.
The walls may be gone.
The rooms where these events allegedly occurred may no longer exist.
But the mystery remains.
Was the Demon House truly possessed?
Was a family experiencing something supernatural?
Was something else happening entirely?
Or will the truth about what happened on Carolina Street remain one of the great unanswered mysteries of the paranormal?
Join Jennifer and Joe Shortridge as they go inside the story of the **Demon House of Gary, Indiana**.
Listen to the episode, make up your own mind, and then tell us what you believe.
Because sometimes...
you can tear down a house
But you can't tear down the mystery.

This is Part Two of the two-part series. Hope you enjoy and please share it with a friend.
What if some of humanity's greatest mysteries aren't waiting to be discovered in outer space—but are already here, hidden beneath our feet and resting silently on the bottom of the ocean?
On this fascinating episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, hosts **Jennifer and Joe Shortridge** dive into the world of ancient artifacts discovered underground and underwater—objects that challenge what we think we know about ancient civilizations, lost knowledge, and the true history of human achievement.
For centuries, explorers, archaeologists, divers, and researchers have uncovered incredible objects buried deep beneath layers of earth or preserved beneath the waves. Some have perfectly reasonable explanations. Others remain surrounded by questions, controversy, and mystery. Could certain discoveries suggest that ancient people possessed knowledge far beyond what we have traditionally been taught? Were advanced civilizations lost to time? Or are we sometimes underestimating the intelligence, creativity, and scientific abilities of our ancestors?
One of the most remarkable discoveries discussed in this episode is the **Antikythera Mechanism**, an astonishing ancient device recovered from a shipwreck near the Greek island of Antikythera. Often described as one of the world's earliest known analog computers, this complex collection of gears has fascinated scientists and historians for generations. How could people living more than 2,000 years ago create something with such extraordinary mechanical sophistication? What was it designed to calculate? And does the Antikythera Mechanism represent a level of ancient technological knowledge that was later lost?
Jennifer and Joe also explore mysterious ancient manuscripts, including the legendary **Voynich Manuscript**, one of history's most puzzling documents. Filled with strange illustrations, unknown plants, mysterious symbols, and writing that has resisted centuries of interpretation, the manuscript continues to spark debate. Is it written in a forgotten language? Is it an elaborate code? Could it contain lost scientific, medical, or mystical knowledge? Or is the truth something entirely different?
The conversation goes even deeper as the hosts examine other strange discoveries connected to ancient civilizations and unexplained history. From objects recovered beneath the ocean to artifacts discovered deep underground, these mysteries raise an important question: **How much of the ancient world has yet to be discovered?**
The oceans cover most of our planet, while countless archaeological sites remain buried beneath cities, forests, deserts, and layers of sediment. Entire communities may have disappeared beneath rising seas, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and other natural disasters. Over thousands of years, evidence of human civilizations can be swallowed by the earth and sea, leaving behind only fragments for future generations to uncover.
Could there be ancient cities still hidden beneath the waves? Could underground discoveries eventually rewrite parts of the history we think we know? And when researchers discover an artifact that doesn't seem to fit neatly into our understanding of its time, should we automatically dismiss it—or should we be willing to ask more questions?
This episode explores the line between established archaeology and unexplained speculation. Joe and Jennifer discuss the excitement of discovery while examining why extraordinary claims require careful investigation. Not every mysterious artifact is evidence of a lost advanced civilization—but some discoveries remind us that history is constantly being updated as new evidence comes to light.
Join the **222 Paranormal Podcast** as we journey beneath the surface of the earth and descend into the depths of the ocean in search of ancient mysteries. From the incredible Antikythera Mechanism to the mysterious Voynich Manuscript and other artifacts that continue to raise questions, this is an episode about lost knowledge, forgotten civilizations, ancient technology, and the possibility that humanity's past may be even stranger than we imagine.
**What secrets are still waiting beneath the ground and beneath the sea?**
Perhaps the greatest mysteries in history haven't been lost at all.
Perhaps they simply haven't been found yet.

222 Paranormal Podcast — Who Is the Holy Spirit?
What exactly is the Holy Spirit? Is He a divine presence, a guide, a comforter, or something far more mysterious? In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Joe and Jennifer explore one of Christianity's greatest mysteries: the identity and role of the Holy Spirit within the Trinity.
Joe and Jennifer begin at the very beginning—literally. The first mention of the Spirit of God appears in Genesis, where the Spirit is described as moving over the waters before creation. From there, the conversation travels through the Old Testament, examining the many ways the Holy Spirit appears, guides, empowers, and communicates with humanity.
One of the most fascinating stories discussed is that of Bezalel, the craftsman chosen to help construct the Tabernacle and the sacred objects associated with it, including the Ark of the Covenant. Scripture describes Bezalel as being filled with the Spirit of God, receiving wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and exceptional craftsmanship. What does this tell us about the Holy Spirit? Could divine inspiration extend beyond prophecy and miracles into creativity, craftsmanship, and human ability?
Joe and Jennifer also explore the Holy Spirit's relationship with biblical figures including Moses, David, Samson, Elijah, and the prophets. The discussion moves into some of the Bible's most extraordinary supernatural experiences, including dreams, visions, prophecy, divine guidance, and Ezekiel's mysterious visions.
The conversation then turns toward Jesus Christ and the Trinity. What does Christianity mean when it says the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one God? What happened when the Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus at His baptism? And what does the dramatic event of Pentecost reveal about the Spirit's role?
One of the most personal moments of the episode comes when Joe reflects on growing up in a Catholic home and attending church, where he heard the Holy Spirit mentioned many times throughout his childhood. Yet, despite hearing the words repeatedly, he admits that he never really understood who the Holy Spirit was or what role the Spirit played in his faith.
That personal reflection becomes an important part of the episode's larger question: Can we experience the Holy Spirit today?
Joe also shares one of his own theories: Could some experiences that people describe as encounters with guardian angels actually involve the Holy Spirit? While Joe makes it clear that this is his personal thought rather than established Christian doctrine, the idea opens the door to a fascinating discussion about intuition, divine guidance, protection, spiritual experiences, and the unexplained.
Throughout the episode, Joe and Jennifer carefully explore the difference between biblical teachings, Christian tradition, personal belief, and paranormal experiences.
Whether you're a lifelong Christian, someone who grew up hearing about the Holy Spirit but never fully understood the concept, a paranormal enthusiast, or simply someone fascinated by the mysteries of consciousness and spirituality, this episode offers plenty to think about.
Who is the Holy Spirit?
Is the Holy Spirit still active in the world today?
And could some of the mysterious experiences people encounter throughout their lives have a spiritual explanation?
Join Joe and Jennifer for a deep journey into scripture, faith, history, and the unexplained as they explore Who Is the Holy Spirit?
Sometimes the greatest mysteries aren't hiding in haunted houses, deep forests, or distant skies.
Sometimes, the greatest mysteries may be walking beside us every day.

What if your phone suddenly rang and the caller ID displayed the name of someone who had already passed away?
Would you answer?
In this fascinating episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, Joe and Jennifer Shortridge dive deep into one of the most unsettling and intriguing areas of paranormal research: **phone calls from the dead**.
For decades, people around the world have reported receiving mysterious telephone calls, voicemails, and electronic messages that they believe came from deceased loved ones. Some describe hearing a familiar voice. Others report nothing but silence, static, or strange sounds before the call suddenly ends. Are these experiences genuine communications from the afterlife, unusual technological glitches, or something connected to the grieving process?
Joe and Jennifer begin by exploring the history of humanity's attempts to communicate with the dead and how the development of electricity and communication technology changed the way people thought about the afterlife.
The conversation then turns to two of the greatest inventors in history: **Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison**.
Tesla's experiments with electricity, radio signals, frequency, and wireless communication have fascinated paranormal researchers for generations. Joe and Jennifer examine what Tesla actually believed, what he reportedly experienced during his experiments, and how his work has been interpreted by people searching for evidence of communication beyond our physical world.
Then comes Thomas Edison and the famous idea of the **"Spirit Phone."** Did Edison really attempt to create a machine capable of communicating with the dead? What did he actually say about the possibility? And how much of the modern Spirit Phone story is documented history versus legend?
The episode also explores the history of **Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP)** and **Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC)**. Joe and Jennifer discuss researchers such as Friedrich Jürgenson and Konstantin Raudive and examine the controversial claims that electronic equipment can sometimes capture voices that investigators cannot hear at the time of recording.
The discussion then moves into the twentieth century and the scientific interest surrounding unexplained electronic voices, including the **1979 research and discussion referenced in the episode**.
But the heart of this episode is the stories.
Joe and Jennifer examine reports involving mysterious phone calls, disconnected numbers, unexplained voicemails, and calls apparently made by people shortly after their deaths. One of the most famous cases discussed is the **Charles Peck cellphone case** following the 2008 Chatsworth train collision, in which family members reportedly received repeated calls from Peck's phone after the crash.
Could these incidents have technological explanations?
Could grief and memory play a role?
Could electronic interference create the illusion of a voice?
Or could consciousness somehow survive physical death and find a way to interact with the technology around us?
Joe and Jennifer explore all of these possibilities without claiming to have all the answers.
Ultimately, **"Phone Calls From the Dead"** isn't simply about whether ghosts can use telephones. It's about something much deeper: our desire to remain connected to the people we love, even after they're gone.
So the next time your phone rings unexpectedly...
You might want to take a second look at the caller ID.
Because you never know who might be calling.
**Listen to the full episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast and decide for yourself: Can the dead really make a phone call?**

In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we sit down with Casey Schnese, founder of the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team, to talk about the world of paranormal investigation, the experiences that drive people to search for answers, and what it's really like to investigate places where the unexplained may be happening.
Casey has been investigating the paranormal and leading the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team for nearly seven years. Over that time, the team has had the opportunity to investigate more than 20 businesses and four private homes, each location bringing its own history, atmosphere, and potential mysteries. With a team of approximately eight members, Casey and the group approach their investigations with curiosity, teamwork, and an open mind.
Paranormal investigation is about much more than simply walking into a supposedly haunted location with cameras and equipment. Every investigation begins with questions. What happened at the location? Who lived or worked there? Is there a history of unusual activity? Are there stories that have been passed down through generations? And perhaps most importantly, can the experiences reported by witnesses be documented and investigated in a responsible way?
During our conversation, Casey shares insight into what it takes to investigate paranormal claims and what investigators may encounter when they enter a location with a reputation for being haunted. From unexplained sounds and strange feelings to possible spirit activity and personal experiences, every investigation can bring something different.
We also explore the importance of working as a team. Paranormal investigations can be challenging, especially when investigators are dealing with darkness, unfamiliar environments, and situations that may be difficult to explain. Having a group of investigators allows experiences to be compared, evidence to be reviewed, and observations to be discussed from different perspectives.
One of the most fascinating aspects of paranormal investigation is the unknown. While some experiences may eventually have a logical explanation, others can leave investigators with more questions than answers. For people like Casey, that uncertainty is part of what makes the field so interesting. The goal isn't necessarily to prove every experience is paranormal, but to investigate, document, and consider all possibilities.
Casey's nearly seven years of experience leading the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team have provided countless opportunities to explore reportedly haunted locations and meet people who have experienced things they cannot easily explain. Whether you're a longtime paranormal enthusiast or someone who is simply curious about what may exist beyond our understanding, this conversation offers a fascinating look into the world of ghost hunting and paranormal research.
Join Joe and Jennifer on the 222 Paranormal Podcast as we explore Casey Schnese's journey, the history of the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team, and the experiences that continue to inspire the search for answers. As always, we encourage you to listen with an open mind and decide for yourself what you believe.
The paranormal world is filled with stories, questions, and mysteries that may never have easy answers. But that's exactly why we keep investigating.
