Mississippi Valley Paranormal is a paranormal investigation and research group that was formed in December 2007 to help further research into the paranormal in a strictly professional manner. Our members come from all walks of life and we use only scientific means to research and collect evidence. We are always open to investigating with other teams because we believe that unity in the paranormal community is a must.

Mississippi Valley Paranormal covers Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois, including the Quad Cities.

Mississippi Valley Paranormal is a non-profit organization and we do not charge for our services.

I have been seriously interested in the paranormal for about 5 years. It all started with a trip to the Bell Witch Cave in Adams, Tennessee, and from there I was hooked. I am one of the 3 co-founders of MVP, which was created in December 2007. My favorite part of investigating is listening to the audio afterwards, to see if I can hear any EVPs. My best paranormal experience was when some members of our group went to Villisca, Iowa over night. That was a truly amazing experience; everything from shadows, footsteps, whistles, and EMF responses to questions.

I’ve been interested in the paranormal since I was little, when I watched shows like the classic “Sightings” and “Unsolved Mysteries.” I’m more interested in the scientific and technical aspects of an investigation, and as such don’t tend to believe in “psychics” or “sensitives;” I only believe in things that I see and hear myself.

I’ve been interested in the paranormal honestly as far back as I can remember. Even the books I read when I was ten years old were “scary”… ones like “The Scariest Stories to Tell in the Dark” and “True Ghost Stories” and several variations of that. I cannot remember one single event when I was young that happened to make me truly focus on the unexplained side of life (other than some weird things happening in my old house), but I do remember it always being a part of me since, oh… birth.

I have not had extensive training from seminars or classes in ghost hunting or in the paranormal per say, but I do have extensive knowledge from my own research and others’ stories growing up. Although I am a healthy skeptic I do believe indefinitely that there is something beyond our understanding and that sometimes you can tap into it… or whatever it is can tap into you.

I have been interested in the paranormal for as long as I can remember. My purpose for joining MVP is to learn and discover as much information about the paranormal in a professional environment as I can. I have always had a genuine desire to help other people by sharing knowledge and to be able to combine that with my own interest in the paranormal is exciting to me. I do consider myself to be a skeptic in that I feel that any activity that is happening needs to try to be explained as something that can happen naturally. When thing are found that can’t be explained it’s just simply interesting.

I have been interested in the paranormal since my first experience with what I believe to have been a very negative spirit, which appeared as a young boy at a friend’s apartment. I have done some paranormal investigations with a friend, cemeteries mostly. I have participated in a couple of investigations with another group, but joined Mississippi Valley Paranormal because they were closer to where I live. I have a good knowledge of the paranormal, always reading or studying on-line or in books. But the main reason I joined MVP is because I want to help others understand what is happening to them, whether it is natural or paranormal.
