GREG
MYERS
If their was an award
for The best husband and wife team
of Paranormal Investigators. It would
to to Greg and Judy Myers. Well they
have been referred to as the best
married Ghost Hunting Couple of the
year by me if that counts for anything.
Greg Myers has had personal
paranormal encounters since being
a teen and has years of paranormal
investigative experience. He is well
versed with haunting classifications,
paranormal investigative techniques
and leadership through example. Greg
has served as a technician and supervisor
while serving in the military and
has further enhanced his education
and abilities with legal issues while
serving over ten years in the legal
field. With his background of legal
issues, lobbying experience and issue
advocation, he hopes to apply these
skills to the enactment and strengthening
of "haunted house" and "psychological
impact" disclosure laws for prospective
property owners, tenets and lessees.
Greg also has an extensive background
in genealogical research and familiarization
with record research vital to the
research of potential haunted properties.
Greg is one that shares the philosophy
that paranormal investigations can
come with many unknown dangers which
are not properly addressed by most
of the paranormal research field.
This and other important issues are
overlooked and need further advocation
to current and future researchers
and investigators within this field.
Greg adheres to a Humanistic Approach
to investigations which always places
the client first above everything
else.
Greg became part of MISSOURI PARANORMAL
RESEARCH™ in August of 2005
serving as a co- administrator, lead
investigator and EVP specialist. While
serving with MPR, Greg became an instrumental
element in the collection and analysis
of evidence in a case involving an
extreme "inhuman" haunting
and possession. This Haunting was
featured on the Discovery Channel's
"A Haunting" series as the
Season 3 opener in October 2006. Greg
then co-founded PARANORMAL TASK FORCE,
Inc. in October 2006. PARANORMAL TASK
FORCE™, Inc. is a not for profit
incorporation which educates and promotes
the awareness of paranormal research
as well as other historical and paranormal
related issues along with providing
assistance to the public and other
organizations. MISSOURI PARANORMAL
RESEARCH™ now serves as its
non-extreme investigative and research
division while other divisions will
be launched making Paranormal Task
Force™, Inc. a "One Stop"
resource for all paranormal needs
of clients, the public and other organizations
as well.
Greg has been a featured guest on
many radio stations across the US,
UK, and Canada and has completed filming
earlier this year (2007) with Keith
Age and The Booth Brothers for "Children
of the Grave" which will be released
on October 2, 2007. He also served
as a Location Manager for that project.
He also completed filming for the
Exspiro Productions documentary "The
Other Side" which was released
earlier this year (2007). Greg has
also authored articles and short stories
concerning his experiences within
the paranormal realms and theories
related to such which are published
on the World Wide Web. Some of these
articles and stories have been selected
for inclusion in “Weird Hauntings
II” and “Weird Missouri”
which will be published in the near
future.
Greg has also recently been added
to the League of Paranormal Gentlemen.
If you think the Warren's
were great then you'll love the info
and paranormal stories this haunted
couple have to tell.
Greg Heads up Paranormal
Task Force and his wonderful wife
Judy, Founder of Paravoyance a diviisional
team that Hunts and researchers real
ghost and activity with a Sensitive
or psychic point of view.
JUDY
MYERS
Judy is considered a
Clairvoyant and Psychic Medium by
many, however Judy has considered
this gift "a curse" since
childhood. Judy has had a Near Death
Experience (NDE) while she was a teenager,
an experience which only heightened
her gift with its full inclusion into
all six areas of perception; Clairvoyance,
Clairsentience, Clairaudience, Clairalience,
Claircognizance and Clairgustance.
Throughout her life Judy has always
been exposed to the paranormal against
her own will which has given her a
very different perception of both
life and the after life. It was finally
her husband whose interest of helping
others experiencing the darker side
of paranormal activity finally brought
light to how Judy could apply her
gift.
Judy became part of MISSOURI PARANORMAL
RESEARCH™ in August of 2005
serving as an assistant administrator
and sensitive investigator. Since
serving in the paranormal investigative
and research field, Judy has become
an invaluable resource in assisting
on investigations where her gift has
been used partially to determine equipment
placement resulting in concrete captures
of the unknown. Her gift has also
been very beneficial in the determination
of haunting sources, potential dangers
and allows closure to be brought to
clients seeking such. Both research
and evidentiary captures have validated
her gift as both real and accurate
to others.
Judy became an instrumental element
in a case involving an extreme "inhuman"
haunting and possession. This Haunting
was featured on the Discovery Channel's
"A Haunting" series as the
Season 3 opener in October 2006. Judy
then co-founded PARANORMAL TASK FORCE,
Inc. in October 2006. Paranormal Task
Force, Inc. is a not for profit incorporation
which educates and promotes the awareness
of paranormal research as well as
other historical and paranormal related
issues along with providing assistance
to the public and other organizations.
MISSOURI PARANORMAL RESEARCH now serves
as its non-extreme investigative and
research division.
In July 2007 Judy founded PARAVOYANCE™,
a new division of PARANORMAL TASK
FORCE™, Inc., devoted to the
psychic and other metaphysical aspects
of paranormal realms. PARAVOYANCE™
not only assists clients and other
divisions of Paranormal Task Force,
but also other individuals and organizations
as well.
Judy completed filming as a sensitive
investigator along with her daughter
earlier part of (2007) with
Keith Age and The Booth Brothers for
"Children of the Grave"
which was released on October 2, 2007.
Past
Best Paranormal Couples of the year
2004:
The Warren's, Ed And Lorraine Warren
The
first couple of the paranormal in
America. Ed Warren (September 7, 1926
- August 23, 2006) was a self-described
demonologist, author and lecturer.
Lorraine Warren, his wife, claimed
to be both a clairvoyant and a light
trance medium. The latter is featured
in several episodes of the Discovery
series A Haunting, in which she discusses
some of the cases she and Ed worked
on as paranormal investigators.
The Warrens founded the New England
Society for Psychic Research in 1952
and later opened the Occult Museum.
They are the authors of numerous books
about the paranormal and their own
private investigations into various
hauntings. They claimed to have investigated
over 10,000 hauntings during their
career. The Warrens were among the
very first investigators in the controversial
Amityville haunting.
The Warrens were responsible for
training several current paranormal
investigating demonologists including
Dave Considine, Lou Gentile, and their
nephew John Zaffis.
Notable Warren investigations
The Amityville horror case in which
New York couple George and Katy Lutz
claimed that their house was haunted
by a violent, demonic presence so
intense that it eventually drove them
out of their home. Later researchers
would cast considerable doubt on the
claims made by both the Lutz family
and virtually everyone involved in
the case. Though the case has never
proven to be a legitimate paranormal
occurrence, these alleged events would
become the basis for the 1977 best-selling
book The Amityville Horror and a 1979
movie of the same name.
The case of Bill Ramsey, in which
the Warrens claim to have exorcised
a "werewolf demon" from
a man who had bitten several people,
believing himself to be a wolf. Controversy
remains as to whether Bill Ramsey
was actually possessed by a demon
or was instead suffering from a mental
illness. The events surrounding this
case were later described in a 1991
book written by the Warrens.
The hauntings that allegedly occurred
in the home of Pennsylvania residents
Jack and Janet Smurl. The manifestations
in the Smurl home were reported to
include all manner of poltergeist
phenomena, including strange sounds,
foul smells and sightings of apparitions.
The Warrens became involved and claimed
that the Smurl home was occupied by
three spirits and a demon. Both Jack
and Janet Smurl would also claim to
have been sexually assaulted by the
entities in their home. Later, other
investigators working independently
from the Warrens would point out the
lack of corroboration by independent
observers for the events claimed by
both the Warrens and the Smurls. These
same investigators would further note
the lack of any kind of impartial
physical evidence and even suggested
that a financial motive on the part
of Jack Smurl might be involved. The
case was the subject of both a book
and a 1991 television movie called
The Haunted.
2005
: Grant Wilson And Jason Hawes
Americas'
Favorite TV Ghost Hunters from SCI-Fi
Channel. The cofounders of TAPS. The
Atlantic Paranormal Society. Hawes

In
March 2005, Barry Clinton Eckstrom,
51, of Upper St. Clair, Pennsylvania,
began to send threatening e-mails
to Jason Hawes, founder of TAPS. Hawes
alerted the FBI in Providence. When
the e-mails began to include threats
against President George W. Bush,
the Secret Service became involved.
Eckstrom also used Hawes's name to
send e-mails to some female members
of TAPS, in which he threatened to
rape and murder them. While under
surveillance by federal agents, Eckstrom
used a Bethel Park, Pennsylvania library
computer to send an e-mail in Hawes'
name to Roto Rooter's Cincinnati headquarters,
threatening to shoot employees there.
Next, Eckstrom typed a message threatening
to kill President Bush, again in Hawes'
name, using the Department of Homeland
Security's website. Before he could
send the message, he was arrested.
Because of these activities, Eckstrom
was sentenced to two years in federal
prison in January 2006.

Battlefields, documents much of the
work Mark and I have done together
in these two historic cities over
the past year and a half.
Laine began her professional writing
career at the age of sixteen when
she became the student editor for
The Purple Cow, an Atlanta monthly,
with a circulation of 40,000. Upon

relations firm, the redd group, until
she relocated to Maryland in 2004.
Laine moved to a haunted house on
an old Maryland plantation and life
has never been the same. The shock
of leaving the city life was compounded
by the realization that she had psychic
abilities. Laine's work as a medium
has been in The Washington Post, The
