Ghosts & Hauntings

Master ghost hunter, Brad Steiger (bradandsherry.com) paid a pre-Halloween visit on Thursday night, sharing tales of hauntings and apparitions. "The unseen world is very near," said Steiger, who added that he believes ghosts are all around us.

As a child, Steiger said he had ghostly visitations from two stern figures, which he later realized upon seeing photos, were his great grandparents. "The supernatural is simply the natural we don't understand," he commented. Steiger advised using basic "protection mechanisms" when entering a haunted place that has had a past history of violence. These included prayer, visualizing being surrounded in white light and asking for a blessing.

One such disturbing location where Steiger said he "almost lost it," was a home where reoccurring murders had taken place. There were accounts of "blood flowing out of faucets," and dark entities seen moving around the rooms, he reported.

The Haunted Chair

This photograph (click on to view larger) is featured in Brad Steiger's latest book Real Ghosts. The electric chair was formerly used by the state of Tennessee, and this photo was originally sent to the Ghost to Ghost website by Fred Leuchter, an engineer who, among other things, designs and fabricates execution equipment.

Leuchter said the photograph has been authenticated by Eastman Kodak as being genuine - meaning that the photo was not tampered with. Some say there are five different entities visible in this image.
