Team SPECTRE Biographies
Joe
Paranormal Expert/ Team Leader |
Creaky floors, squeaky doors, and other things that open/close seemingly by themselves. The television, radio and other equipment turns on or off seemingly by itself. The other voice(s), footsteps, laughter, crying you hear from another room when you are all alone. If you tell yourself enough times, “it’s just my imagination”, you might just learn to ignore them. If you are inquisitive enough, you eventually have to ask why. Pliny the Younger (Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus) is reported to have written in 100AD about a ghost hunt that occurred some years prior in Athens, so humans have been asking why for a long time. I make it my hobby to ask why and I have been asking why for many years.
Pursuing the eternal “why” takes one down many avenues. Sometimes the pursuit of “why” uses scientific methodologies. Sometimes the pursuit of “why” takes on a completely subjective approach. The Pursuit of “why” has brought the human race to the point it is at today in every walk of life including but not nearly limited to religion, horticulture, medical breakthroughs, rocket science, to the study of the mind in which we barely have a rudimentary grasp.
Team Spectre LLC is a formalized approach to my many years’ long hobby of searching for the answer(s) to “why”. I have learned throughout life that nothing is quite as black and white or easy as it seems, including the elusive human concept of truth and the new easy open directions on the medicine bottle. Given that the rest of existence is not so simplistic, I find it hard to believe that life and death are as clear-cut on all levels as we pretend to “know”. If you should decide you want to ask “why”, I can offer only this advice. I encourage you to study everything with one part curiosity and one healthy dose of respect, including how you feel when you are sitting alone in the stillness.

I've always been interested in the why behind the unexplained. I believe one day science will be able to give us all of the answers to our most burning questions..like is there life after death? I believe that there is but the next question is..if so.. what form does it take and is it palpable enough for us to be able to connect with it and make sense of what we discover?
It's a commonly accepted fact in the scientific and medical community that we only use a certain percentage of our brain. Is there a part of our brain that is geared or wired with a sense beyond the 5 physical senses we commonly accept and rely upon? Does our reliance on these 5 senses prevent us from tapping into a 6th sense we may have.. may have once had..or may not have completely developed yet? Much like when you lose a sense.. like sight or hearing.. your other senses become stronger to compensate. If we were to find a way to shield our brain from the sensory overload our 5 senses bombard us with every day.. could or would we be able to listen to that 6th sense more easily? I believe one day.. science will give us that answer.
I'm a Medical Illustrator. I'm a man of art and science. I'm naturally inquisitive. I'm a problem solver and a hopeles romantic. I want desperately to believe that there is something else out there and that one day we will find and understand it. Until then.. I'll keep hunting.. I'll keep trying. And I'll keep helping other people try and understand as well. Maybe in my journey from darkness to enlightenment..I'll find an answer or two. And when I do.. I'll be sure to share them with all of you. That's a promise!

As the youngest member of our crew I bring a younger, fresh look to the whole thing. I have always been interested in the odd things in life. Ghost Stories, superstitions and the unexplained have always peeked my interest. I like to believe that there is more to life than just living. I have always thought that when you die, you don't just go 6ft. under and be done with it.
There has to be something more to it. How else can you explain those feelings of being watched, hearing things when you are alone, or moving without any physical touch? But I'm also a person that needs to see the physical evidence that it is NOT just someone messing with me. I'm part skeptic/part believer. I like to find all possible ways to explain why you can hear things moving or crashing or a strange whispered voice. It's using logic, science and an open mind to explore all of the possibilities.

For as long as I can remember I have always had an interest in the paranormal . As a child , I experienced many things that peeked my curiosity . I have always had a desire to find answers and possibly a way to communicate. I am a strong believer that when this physical life is over ..there is much more waiting on the other side. I approach all of our situations with a healthy dose of skepticism as well as an open mind to whatever I may encounter.
I love to do investigations and am always eager to help someone if there is a problem I think we can help solve. I enjoy each and every situation we enter. With the experiences I have personally had ,I feel that we can actually continue to use new things to bridge the gap between our physical world and the one beyond. Once you have had one of these experiences yourself ....it really opens your mind to what might be out there. That is the big reason why I continued to search on my own ..until I found my team . Together we all bring different talents and thoughts to the table. A well oiled machine..we all have very similar beliefs and the same interests in the paranormal world.
I come from the Cleveland area and have done many investigations in both public and private places around the city. Now that I have joined up with Team Spectre...I have branched out to the south and am adding a lot of new places to my list. There are sooooo many places with such interesting and amazing history . So many places that held such insensity that they have left their mark long after the physical people and places have changed. Learning about these places and then going into them and searching for that evidence is what we do best . I live for that thrill !! Who knew I would actually be spending time in abandoned prisons, institutions, theatres,houses, and even local buisnesses...in the dark ..looking for these bits of proof. It is a rewarding , thrilling ,and truly amazing hobby. I feel very lucky to have found the people I did with the same feelings and hobby. I look forward to many ,many more adventures . Keep your mind open and who knows what you will discover!!
