THE PARANORMAL WORLD - IN THE NEWS
For their 10th anniversary this Autumn, The SpiritChasers are excited to be returning for haunted history walks and ghost hunts at both the Evergreen Cemetery and City Auditorium. Both are historical sites with a lot of history and documented cases of paranormal activity. The SC will also be holding a supernaturally stimulating presentation at Celebration Conscious Living, serving the metaphysical community of Colorado Springs since 1977!
On Saturday, October 22nd, The SC partner with Blue Moon Haunted History Tours for one of their favorite yearly events. Join them in the haunted Chapel, featured in a season two episode of My Ghost Story, for a showcase of spirit photography, EVP and video to get guests in the mood before leading them downstairs for a ghost hunt in the old morgue. Many of you have seen their Fox News interview from this very active location and have taken some very interesting photographs yourselves!
On Wednesday, October 26th, The SpiritChasers will be holding a special media presentation at the Celebration Conscious Living Community Room from 7 to 9pm. See photos, footage and listen to some eerie audio from their 10 years in the paranormal field. Guest speakers will be on hand, plus giveaways, spine-tingling tales of real-life hauntings and behind-the-scenes stories from some of Colorado Springs' most paranormally active places! This event always sells out so call the store asap to register!
On Saturday, October 29th, join The SpiritChasers at the Colorado Springs City Auditorium for one very supernaturally stimulating event! Paranormal authors, investigators, mediums and psychics converge under one roof for a ghost hunt, seance and paramedia presentation. The City Auditorium was completed in 1923 and 4 known documented deaths have occurred here, but the building is said to be home to countless other ghosts, including Lon Chaney himself! The SpiritChasers will be in the haunted Lon Chaney Theater, while well-known psychic Laura Westfall will be conducting a seance in one of the upper rooms where a documented murder occurred. Our friend Shaun Crusha and his group the Colorado Alliance Of Paranormal Investigators and Mediums will be stationed throughout the building. See the latest in ghost hunting equipment as they lead you throughout the building and back through time on a hunt for the spirits of the auditorium.
More information on these events, as well as registration information, will be added to the following links below. In the meantime, mark your calendars and check back for updates!

Do you believe in ghosts? How much do you know about our city's very haunted history? Have you heard the legends surrounding Cave Of The Winds, how the Utes believed it was one of the entrances to the Underworld? Did you know people still see Lon Chaney at the theater he was named after, almost 90 years after his death? Did you know about the entity at a popular family eatery known as the Fargo's Phantom?
For 10 years The SpiritChasers have been investigating such paranormally active locations as the City Auditorium, Cave Of The Winds, the city of Manitou Springs and several other local haunted "hotspots". Their founder, Christopher Brewer, is an Oglala Sioux, having been exposed to the reality of the existence of a spirit world early in his childhood. He and his family have had countless supernatural experiences both here in Colorado and on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. He and James Manda founded The SpiritChasers in 2006, after experiencing paranormal phenomena in Widefield in an area where a tragic plane crash occurred in 1991. Their evidence has been featured on the Biography Channel, Lifetime Movie Network, Fox News, SyFy, Japan's Fuji TV and The Denver Post.
View their spooky spirit photography and footage from over a decade in the paranormal field and listen to eerie audio captured at many of the sites they have investigated. There will be guest speakers, giveways, and one lucky guest will receive a ticket to their next ghost hunt at one of the locations they will be speaking about! As this presentation will feature many disturbing stories and frightening images, this event is definitely not recommended for children.
The SpiritChasers are one of the most prominent and unique paranormal investigators in Colorado, come see why - this a perfect way to get in the mood when the veil between worlds is at its most thin. Be there and be scared!

New Event for 2016!
THE TRUTH WAS OUT THERE
We recently returned from an adventurous weekend in the mysterious San Luis Valley. We had the honor of meeting Travis Walton at the UFO Watchtower's Under The Stars conference. He spoke about the truth behind his experience, far from what was depicted in the 1993 film Fire In The Sky ( recently added to Netflix ). He was gracious enough to sign a poster for The SpiritChasers, and his kind words helped to reinvest and reignite us on our esoteric journey throughout the unknown.
Our many thanks to fellow adventurers Rebecca and Shawn, who helped make this trip truly delightful. We closed our active weekend with a long hike up to the remains of the New Town Of Orient, former home to a 1822 mining colony, abandoned in 1933. We sat in the crumbling foundations, taking photos and listening for echoes from the past. We ventured up to the collapsed mine, now home to a 250,000 Mexican Free Tail bat colony. We watched them leave their cave at dusk, filling the sky above us, the rush of their wings like the blessings of Tibetan prayer flags. Off into the sunset they disappeared, leaving another mystical experience which replenished our souls and granted us a new inertia.
Readjusting to this world from last weekend's road trip, Christopher realizes one of the things he'll miss most are the crazy sunsets of San Luis. To be baptized with that glorious, magical, mystical light at the end of each day, when all the sun he ever gets is in the car on his way to and from work, was breathtaking. No other light is as purifying. He still can't believe he took these close-ups with a cheap iPhone clip-on telephoto lens he found on Amazon. And the way the Sangre De Cristo ( blood of Christ ) mountain range was bathed in red, orange and pink...truly illuminating.☀️
We are looking forward to the fall season, when we can share new stories, photos and findings from our latest adventures through the Underworld. As we approach our 10th anniversary this autumn, we hope you join us and experience some new stories of your own. Follow us for upcoming events here and at www.thespiritchasers.com

Christopher: "I was working in the shipping and receiving department of an old downtown warehouse when we began to hear about this strange movie coming out. It was supposedly the found footage of three missing students who were investigating a local legend when they disappeared. The warehouse at one time housed an old speakeasy and several employees were reporting all manner of paranormal activity. No one wanted to go into the basement for anything. The noises always started late at night. We'd sit at our computers, waiting for the eventual door slamming or dragging noises to start floating up the stairs. All of the extra packing material was in the basement so we'd have to go in teams.
When the film, The Blair Witch Project, was eventually released, no one knew it was just a movie. Due to a clever marketing campaign, we all thought we were watching a real documentary. I went on opening night with two people who would eventually join The SpiritChasers. Everyone in the audience was on the edge of their seat the entire duration of the film and never before had a movie affected me in such a way.
Eventually it was revealed that the missing students were in fact paid actors, but by then we were already collecting and distributing Blair Witch trading cards at work. The activity seemed to increase, as if feeding on a new fear of the unknown in our collective unconscious. The ghost stories were scarier, more alive, and television began to become saturated with paranormal programs and specials.
The Scariest Places On Earth, one of our favorites, debuted the following year in 2000. Ghost Hunters followed four years later and a couple years after that The SpiritChasers were born. I always look back on that time period, that new golden age of the unexplained, with gratitude and awe, when doors began opening up for us ( sometimes literally ) and new questions were being asked I had grown up watching In Search Of with my father, reading Ed & Lorraine Warren throughout elementary school, then discovering Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World, then Unsolved Mysteries, then SyFy's Sightings. My first official ghosthunt actually occurred when I was 12.
The SpiritChasers became a natural extension of everything I had already been experiencing, preparing me for new adventures, unknowns and philosophy. It seems fitting that this fall we will celebrate our 10th anniversary as a paranormal investigation team, just as the new Blair Witch movie will be released. We will be back in the theater opening night with our original team members, hopefully as enraptured as before, afterward raising a glass to everything and everyone who conspired to make The SC a reality.

Tonight The SpiritChasers return to international airwaves with the Japan airing of Fuji TV's "What's This? - Mysteries From Around The World"!
"The world is full of mysteries, despite the leaps of advancement humankind has made in technology over the years. From UFOs to mysterious creatures to the supernatural, we took it upon ourselves to explore the incomprehensible mysteries around the globe. Your hosts Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and comedian duo Ameagari Kesshitai will take you on a thrilling rollercoaster ride through the madness of it all!"
One of the stories, shot by The SpiritChasers - featuring original music composed by Christopher Allen Brewer - includes photographs from investigations they held at Cheesman Park. Originally, interviews for this story were filmed by Christopher and his cousin Denise in L.A. in 2012 for the Biography Channel's "My Ghost Story". When BIO sold the program to Lifetime Movie Network, the show went on indefinite hiatus. Only the "Whispering Walls" segment from Cave Of The Winds featuring James and Christopher was aired ( episode #30 - Paranormal Studies ), now available on iTunes and Amazon ( and still airing on Australian TV ).
So, for those of you who are able, tune in from 7:57 to 8:54 this evening for What's This?!

Our main Spirit Photographer, James Manda, just took this photo of an interesting cloud formation near Crystal Hills Cemetery. We ran it through an IR filter afterward. Ghosts, archangels / ascended masters or just pareidolia? Whatever you're seeing out there in the skies today, stay hydrated. It's another hot one. Have a great weekend!

Should some truly genuine, smoking gun footage of the paranormal surface tomorrow, what do you think the reaction would be? Debunkers unite? Because we live in an age of miracles, but people don't feel the self-worth to expect them. We ask for them, but back away from them as they always arrive in unexpected, uncontrollable, unforeseen ways.
We live in an age where people would rather tear them apart, or tear others apart for their beliefs. If we're not able to manifest a genuine miracle, we don't want to see anyone else doing so either. People have to live in a controlled environment. Enter the debunkers. The homemade, instant armchair scientists. This is a time of great polarization and division of our people. Anything nowadays is game. Endlessly debatable over social media.
The following footage has been torn apart ever since its release. It helped along myth, a story, both of which are unstoppable. Some myths need to be put to rest, for sure, but if they create belief in something which sparks passionate interest, out-of-the-box thinking and spiritual advancement, you'd do well to give it a wide berth.
People are ridiculed for their belief in fairies, yet in Ireland, where Halloween originated ( the largest paranormal holiday for those in our field ), fairies are an important, essential component - so much so that "fairy mounds" still hold a tremendous amount of power and construction is still bent around them.
Debunkers will forever claim ghost hunters are simply photographing no more than insects, dust or other easily identifiable phenomena. Many naysayers play a necessary and pivotal role, others could use a good lesson on the wise investment of energy. Regardless, you can count on us to be on the other side of the field. "I WANT TO BELIEVE" is the caption on a poster in one of our favorite detective's office. I think we're discerning enough to believe with full awareness and consciousness. It takes nothing to hold a thoughtform in your mind, to turn it over and ponder it. Belief is an investment of energy. It can activate a myth. We choose to believe. We choose to invest. We expect miracles, and therefore we are sometimes granted them.

New clips added to our Videos page!
Every October The SpiritChasers release an evidence reveal consisting of all the photos, footage and EVPs gathered since the last season. Here are some segments from last Halloween's episode, "SPIRITCHASERS 9", as well as some clips from the interview The SpiritChasers did with The Denver Post back in 2013.
About the interview:
Christopher Allen Brewer and James Manda of The SpiritChasers join such Colorado luminaries as past and present mayors, senators, scientists, journalists and several other prominent figures filming an interview with then Denver Post Editor-In-Chief, Greg Moore. Their cameraman, Craig Walker, was also a 2-time Pulitzer award winner.
“Greg was warm, humorous and genuinely interested- we couldn't have asked for a better host. The Denver Post offices were beautiful. We were distracted by the many Pulitzers adorning the walls and were ecstatic to have been invited into their circle. I kept looking out the windows at all of the older buildings which make downtown Denver so unique, thinking of all the voices and noises imprinted on their walls. I thought of a record player’s needle, wanting to scratch it over the surfaces. I thought of time, of the past and future meeting each other as we walked through the Denver Post’s sleek, modern interior. All of the people come and gone, all of the people we’ve met in the paranormal field over the years. It was an honor to be chosen out of the many paranormal teams in Colorado and we were grateful for the opportunity.”
“We have always been humble, ethical, spiritual, genuine and respectful people. I think that translated well in the interview. I think those virtues go a long way and add to your longevity as a group. We’ve never been about making a quick buck or bulldozing over people to get on the next big show. Your intention has to be greater if you’re interested in authentic contact. You have to choose between authenticity or stardom in this particular field. Everyone wants to be a medium now, it’s the new fad. It is a good thing, increasing your awareness of your abilities, exercising your dormant senses. But many people would do well to remember that Spirit doesn’t care how many Facebook likes your page has. Spirit won’t recognize the many networks you’ve been on. Are you an honest investigator, or an entertainer? Again, there is a huge gap between credibility and celebrity. You have to get clear. You have to release your ego and tap into that one element which none of this would be possible without – spirit.”

A short, humorous video Christopher put together ( literally ) last October. Those of you familiar with Cheesman's history and legends might find this worth a chuckle.

A very compelling news story, and a thrilling modern ghost story. Especially interesting is the way these reports were documented.

The SpiritChasers recently revisited the newly reopened Lantern Tour at Cave Of The Winds. This is the infamous “ghost story” tour featured in our episode of Lifetime Movie Network’s “My Ghost Story”. During a certain part of the tour, the guide will talk about one of the owner’s former wives, Nellie, how she is often seen in a white lace dress sitting on one of the upper shelf formations. These photos were taken with a full-spectrum camera, capable of “seeing” beyond the infrared. Is this her? Special thanks to Rebecca and Shawn, two of our dearest friends and fellow adventurers!
As paranormal investigators, 2015 was a spectacular year for us and we're very grateful for each and every glimpse through the veil we've had. Special thanks to Stephanie and Wesley Waters, Robert Rais, Rebecca Hoffman, Sean Borden, Brett Leal and YOU for allowing us to share our stories and helping to create new ones. We are indebted to you for your interest and support. May 2016 be a very fulfilling and enlightening year for us all!
"Do you see what I see?"
Courtesy of Christopher's cousin Kim, who experienced many of the same hauntings he did growing up, we have this photo for your consideration.
Kim recently decorated her home for the holidays and noticed something odd in the reflection of her television set. Parts of her home are currently being remodeled and her children are now at that age where poltergeist-like manifestations can happen.
Looks like the Christmas Spirits are visiting a little early this year! Thank you, Kim!

Christmas Ghost Stories: The Ghost of Christmas Past Goes Further Back Than You Might Realize
Closing The Season
Although the busy fall season has ended, as we move further into darkness the veil between worlds remains just as thin, straight into the holidays when departed ancestors are hearing their names being spoken during holiday dinners or seeing the spirit plates left out for them. Even the Christmas carol "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" references the "scary ghost stories" told during this season when everything in nature appears to die or head into a long sleep.
Most paranormal groups would agree that ghost hunting is a full-time occupation and despite a decrease in events and invitations, they will remain active themselves year-round. Such is the case with us. We are still working behind the scenes on our first book of paranormal experiences and spirit photography, our SpiritChasers 10th Anniversary Special, plus other exciting projects. Until then, please look to our Facebook page for the latest updates and news reports. It's been a very rewarding season and we remain grateful for your support and interest!
With love,
The SpiritChasers

The following photo was taken on the evening of July's Blue Moon by our established spirit photographer James Manda. We had a full spectrum camera with us that night and this particular photo was taken at the site of intense psychic residual energy. There were 4 "figures" altogether. We have really been enjoying this camera, which is very similar to a GoPro and is still on sale at GhostStop.com!

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE. Christopher and James meeting Mitch
Pileggi ( Walter Skinner from The X-Files ) at Denver Comic Con last May. Who
else is excited about the return of Mulder & Scully next January 24th?
Production officially began in June on six new episodes of the series.
Christopher: There's a long, scenic stretch of road in between Castle Rock and Colorado Springs. Lots of curves, valleys and grassy hills. Every time I've ever driven in this area at night, I always think how it would be such an ideal place for a UFO landing because there are so many isolated stretches of land. James and I were driving home from a U2 concert in Denver last Saturday night, a little after midnight, when we were passing through this area. I turned to James and told him that I always felt UFO energy around here when suddenly, all the interior lights in my car blazed on. This has never happened in all the years I have owned my car. My eyes darted about the windows and I immediately scanned the skies for anything unusual. We were the only ones on the road, there was no other movement.
James scrambled to manually turn off the lights while I kept my eyes on the digital clock, fully expecting to begin losing time. I began repeating the time then turned to James again after a moment, breathless and enthralled. It had gotten so quiet, so still, so black outside the windows save for a gigantic waning moon coming up over a volcano-shaped hill. I asked James if we were really seeing the moon or if this was a real-time screen memory of something else. He asked in his most innocent voice if I thought our electrical trouble could have been a UFO. Instantly, all the lights blazed back on again. The glove compartment light blinked on and off for a bit after James once again turned the lights back off. It was very unsettling. I felt something was trying to communicate with us. I focused on the road ahead, thinking perhaps it was a warning from a messenger, we had after all been talking about Mercury / Hermes just moments before. What was the message? To pay attention? Or was there another intelligence listening, assuring us it was indeed part of our reality?
We made it back to Manitou with no further incidents, no accidents, no danger. At home I passed by my bookcase full of material and media on the UFO phenomenon. Photos I had taken with Linda Moulton Howe, Christopher O'Brien, John Burroughs of the Rendlesham Forest Incident and Whitley Strieber sat in small frames on the shelves. Above them was our newest addition, the picture we took with Mitch Pileggi. I looked up at our smiling faces and caught the scent of a far off Indian summer on the evening wind. Our archetypes had returned, the seekers of hidden wisdom, to remind us it was once again time to step back into dark places, to ignite the light of higher knowledge. The truth was out there. And we intended to find it.

Many of you have seen our episode of BIO's "My Ghost Story" that was filmed at Cave Of The Winds. Did you know we also filmed another episode at Cheesman Park?
Shortly after filming in My Ghost Story's Los Angeles studio, Christopher was again flown back to film another interview with his cousin regarding their paranormal experiences at Cheesman. A cameraman was later dispatched to join them at this former cemetery, which was the inspiration for 1982's Poltergeist. Another film, 1980's The Changeling, consisted of yet another story based in the Cheesman neighborhood.
With the new Poltergeist reboot arriving in theaters today, we thought it appropriate to share with you two of Christopher's blogs concerning the Cheesman legend, including photos taken during the filming of his second My Ghost Story episode there, as well as the spirit photography The SpiritChasers have captured in this very paranormally active park.
Cheesman Park : Personal Experiences and Cheesman Park : A Gruesome History, can be viewed by following the link below.

CLOSING THE SEASON
As many paranormal researchers know, business tends to die down after Halloween, when it gets too cold to be out in drafty buildings or outdoors after dark. This doesn't mean paranormal phenomena decreases. As we move into further darkness the veil remains just as thin, straight into the holidays when departed ancestors are hearing their names being spoken during holiday dinners or seeing the spirit plates left out for them. Even the Christmas carol "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" references the "scary ghost stories" told during this season when everything in nature appears to die or head into a long sleep.
Most paranormal groups would agree that ghost hunting is a full-time occupation and despite a decrease in events and invitations, they will remain active themselves year-round. Such is the case with us. As Christopher works in retail, his focus is on the heavy sales occurring during this time, leading up to Black Friday and on through Christmas. After inventory and reflection on the year behind, he shifts gears as his dreamtime becomes more vivid and preminatory. From that period onward, we have officially clocked back in. Until then, please look to our Facebook page for the latest updates and news reports. It's been a very rewarding season and we remain grateful for your support and interest!
With love,

Throwback Thursday!
This is an image we took a few years back at one of our favorite haunted hotspots. After we enlarged the orb and ran it through an infrared filter we noticed some interesting details.
On a UFO skywatch once with author Christopher O'Brien, Christopher was told to suspend any assumptions he had about the paranormal and to view things with a higher perception.
He was told to try imagining these unidentified lights in the sky as not simply otherworldly craft but perhaps a point of light connecting our dimension to another.
Perhaps this is what we're seeing within this orb, simply a hole between dimensions where the faces of two beings are looking right back at us.
For more of our photos, go to our Postcards From The Paranormal photo gallery page.

Bottom right: With local paranormal author and investigator Stephanie Waters, owner and operator of Blue Moon Haunted History Tours.
I have always been influenced by great detectives in print ( Batman, for example ), and in cinema, those in search of hidden knowledge ( Clarice Starling, Scully & Mulder, D'anna Biers, Indiana Jones ).
The demonization of "that which is hidden" and other forbidden fruit only made me even more curious to know exactly why some things weren't so easily revealed.
As a child it began with Christmas presents and dark cellars and as I matured it became ancient knowledge and haunted houses ( more dark cellars ).
I love a good mystery, especially those that lie outside the boundary of the easily explicable - the supernatural. Thankfully, pioneers like demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren had published plenty for me to read in my elementary school library. Believe it or not, my school featured a pretty large occult section back in the early 80's and I took full advantage of it.
One of my favorite quotes comes from a novel and miniseries by Shirley MacLaine: "In order to get to the fruit of the tree, you have to go out on a limb."
James and I, with musician and investigator Brett Leal, did so last summer, during a late-night skywatch with Christopher O'Brien near the Great Sand Dunes National Park. My idea was that we had to offer our fear to the night before we could glimpse any of it's secrets. So, sacrificing our fear, we took a dangerous night hike up through Zapata Falls.
Walking up the rocky trail with unseen creatures and who knows what else making noises in the darkness consuming us, we at last entered a cavernous space of rock. From here we waded through the icy waters of the Rio Grande, over slippery moss-covered stones, with the deafening roar from the 25-foot waterfall at the end of the crevasse.
It was like walking into the mouth of an angry giant, bellowing as our flashlight lit up the powerful falls above us. Upon returning I glanced back at the mountainous terrain we had just left. Did I just see a red spark shooting up out of the mountains? Another observer also claimed to have, then Christopher O'Brien mentioned that people had seen the sky above Zapata full of strange, bobbing red orbs.
From the red Maltese crosses the conquistadors traveling through this area marked their buried treasure with, to the unidentified craft regularly spotted in the the San Luis skies, to the unknown lifeforms known as "prairie lizards" spotted phasing in and out of this dimension on the roads here, this is a place of great mystery.
I am grateful to have stood next to so many courageous souls over the years who have ventured into the darkness and emerged with great treasures of wisdom. I wish you the same bravery in your own pursuits and hope you come back with only the sweetest fruit.
Namaste,
- Christopher

I have always been influenced by great detectives in print ( Batman, for example ), and in cinema, those in search of hidden knowledge ( Clarice Starling, Scully & Mulder, D'anna Biers, Indiana Jones ).
The demonization of "that which is hidden" and other forbidden fruit only made me even more curious to know exactly why some things weren't so easily revealed.
As a child it began with Christmas presents and dark cellars and as I matured it became ancient knowledge and haunted houses ( more dark cellars ).
I love a good mystery, especially those that lie outside the boundary of the easily explicable - the supernatural. Thankfully, pioneers like demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren had published plenty for me to read in my elementary school library. Believe it or not, my school featured a pretty large occult section back in the early 80's and I took full advantage of it.

New event for 2014! We will also be holding three paranormal presentations at the Celebration Community Room in Old Colorado City. Last year's, held the night before Halloween, sold out very quickly.

One of our first radio interviews with a man directly affected by an airline tragedy we were investigating. It was a classic "needle off the record" moment when we learned of this synchronicity on-air. Years later, we would meet another man who was in the hangar and brought us actual pieces of the airplane in question. It remains one of our most rewarding and compelling investigations.

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.

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:
