20 QUESTIONS WITH MELISSA HARDY
"As well as working a full time job, taking care of my family which includes two small boys, I am also the Co-Founder, VP and Lead Investigator for Lachesis Sight Paranormal Investigation & Research. I don’t know if my interest in the paranormal or my experiences came first. Either way, as long as I can recall I have wanted to better understand things that happen that, so far, science hasn’t explained. I believe there is much to learn and am so happy to be on a team that embraces a scientific approach to this field. However, my appreciation for the scientific aspect is well balanced with the emotional side of the paranormal. It’s easy to fear what you don’t understand and so I believe strongly if you are experiencing something that is paranormal it is extremely important to talk about it, with friends, clergy or a member of an investigation team. Chances are you will find many people who have had experiences that defy logic.
