Paranormal State - Great article by Ryan Buell

February 10, 2008

I came across the PRS Blog and found a great article written by the shows head investigator Ryan Buell. He makes a great point on “fake” psychics and testing their abilities. I have been intrigued by the paranormal for quite some time now and I get a chuckle out of the “Real Deals”. Some of these people go to great lengths to try and “prove their powers when actually they look more like an ass than someone who has credibility. This is a great read for those who want to see a “fake” be put in her place.

“Case in point. The PRS gang headed to Duffy’s Tavern to celebrate with fans and supporters of the show. We watched the new episode with them. Later, I was introduced to a woman who claimed to have psychic ability. She did a walk-through of the restaurant and claimed she felt the presence of spirits on the second level. I was polite and seemed intrigued by the whole matter. I decided I wanted to tour the upstairs just for historical purposes and the psychic-in-question offered to tag along and show where she felt the spirits. We were followed by a very small crowd of people who wanted to check it out also. One young man was already up there. The psychic-in-question immediately said, “oooh, do you feel that? The cold spot? That cold energy?” Both Heather and I looked up to a vent that was right above us and said in unison, “it’s the vent.” She looked like she had just ate something sour. “No, I’m not talking about VENTS, I’m talking about ENERGY.” I just shrugged and walked off. In truth, I was more interested in checking out the upstairs. The young man, however, continued to be lectured by this psychic-in-question about the energy she was feeling. She stressed that he needed to let go of his perceptions and open himself up to the feelings around him. ”

Read the whole story.

Thank You Ryan for that great read and keep up the good work.
