The SpiritChasers would like to wish a very Happy Birthday to Leonard Nimoy!
Nimoy's "In Search Of" program premiered in 1977 when Christopher was just 4 years old. Although he didn't understand all of the mysteries the show investigated, each episode both scared and fascinated him.
He watched them religiously, humming that odd, eerie 70's theme song, enraptured with Leonard's creepy narration, developing an early appreciation for documentaries and documenting the human condition and our responses to the miraculous.
The program inspired Christopher to seek out the great unknown himself, wherever or however he could, and when the program ended after 6 seasons he began watching Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World, paranormal episodes of That's Incredible! and P.M. Magazine. Later he followed Unsolved Mysteries, Sightings, The Scariest Places On Earth...but nothing affected him like In Search Of, and eventually he would meet others who shared the same passion.
Christopher founded his own paranormal investigation team several years ago and they have been very successful seeking out the legends they have discovered here.
He was elated when the In Search Of Complete Series was released on DVD last year, renewing and reinspiring him all over again.
Thank you for such exciting and influential cinema, Mr. Nimoy
Yours truly,
- The SpiritChasers

HAUNTED REALMS...
Fellow ghost hunters might want to know that this calendar has so far proved invaluable to our team. Apart from keeping track of upcoming investigations and collaboratory events, each month's haunted castle features not only a brief history of the locale, but a few of its ghost stories as well. What we'd really love to see, however, would be an America's Scariest Places Calendar, something featuring Waverly Hills Sanatorium, the Queen Mary, Stanley Hotel and others. What locations would be in your scariest places calendar? ( Ours would be Devil's Bridge, in the Secrurity / Widefield area - for more info about this grim and perplexing spot, pick up a copy of Stephanie Waters' Ghosts Of Colorado Springs And Pikes Peak )!
Happy holidays!

"Ghost Hunters Burn Down Historic Mansion"
The following article is a clear example of exactly why many paranormal investigators have such a bad name. It also mentions other tragedies related to ghost hunting.
Don't get us started about bloody amateur "investigators" popping up right and left with zero tact or respect for their environment, their associates, the paranormal community in general and the spirits behind the phenomenon.
Even the smallest transgressions in this field of research have a way of spreading. People have done irreparable damage to their reputations without even realizing it and yet still claim to be "professionals".
If you are damaging property, challenging and fighting with other paranormal teams, destroying the credibility of other colleagues or just being all-around insecure divas you are not "professional" and are only adding to the sideshow that has become paranormal research.

WHEN SPIRITS SPEAK
ATTENTION PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS!
We are currently working on a non-profit project entitled "When Spirits Speak" and
asking that if there are any interested paranormal groups with good, clear EVPs they can share, please message us. We compiling and comparing EVPs for research purposes and will credit and promote any team who wants to show off their audio.
If possible, please add the location where the EVP was captured with a brief
description. We can also put a link to your website here. EVPs will not be altered in any way and you will retain all ownership. This project has a possibility of turning into something pretty major and we would be grateful for any contributions.
Thank you, - Christopher

Our presentation the night before Halloween at the Celebration Metaphysical Center was immensely fun and we look forward to doing more in the future. 2 hours was not near enough time to share everything we wanted to but we're hoping everyone left with the sense of wonder, awe and the appreciation and preservation of mystery that inspires everything we do. Huge thanks to all of our guests and to those of you who shared your own stories with us.
On Halloween we also joined Greg Moore, the Denver Post's Editor-In-Chief, for an Editor's Desk Halloween podcast, which you
can view here:
http://blogs.denverpost.com/editorsdesk/
Greg was warm, humorous and genuinely interested, we couldn't have asked for a better host and we are grateful for the opportunity. The Denver Post offices were amazing as were the many Pulitzers they have been awarded over the years, and our cameraman, Craig Walker, was in fact awarded two of his own.

ON THE RADIO
Special thanks to Bellaire, Ohio's Witchtalk Radio for having us on the air! Christopher met Kristin Lee, one of it's founders, while in L.A. last year filming his first interview for the Biography Channel's ( now the Lifetime Movie Network's ) popular program My Ghost Story. We also had a blast on Kilo Radio ( http://www.kilo943.com/music/listen-live/ ) with author Stephanie Waters. We'll be gearing up for more shows in the near future, so stay tuned!
Christopher has been in the paranormal field most of his years. Before founding The SpiritChasers he was greatly involved in the metaphysical community, managing Colorado Springs' largest conscious living store and being a continuous presence working several of the popular metaphysical fairs.
With his spiritual and esoteric knowledge, witty mind and abstract humor, he has made a very popular guest on the many radio programs he has been invited on.

Prom Night Trading Cards
As giddily announced earlier in the summer, Synapse Films is currently at work restoring 1980's brilliant PROM NIGHT, which stars our favorite scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis. The original negative is reportedly in poor condition and is currently at the Synapse lab undergoing splicing fixes and repairs.
While we're anxiously awaiting the results in full 1080p ( and getting ready to set up our yearly Jamie Lee Curtis shrine for the Halloween season ), Christopher has taken it upon himself to create an amusing set of virtual PROM NIGHT Trading Cards.
These may only be appreciated and understood by true PROM NIGHT fans, who might further enhance their viewing experience with the rare Japanese PROM NIGHT soundtrack playing in
the background.
Click on our "HUMOR" page to view the whole set. For the uninitiated, you can watch this cult classic in its entirety on YouTube here:

And remember, "If you're not back by midnight...you won't be coming home!"
