Rochester Paranormal

Respect within the paranormal community, like any other community, is something that takes time to establish, and after maintaining a nine year presence on the web, you come to understand the ins and outs of where you might find acceptance and where you obviously will not.

Within the realm of the paranormal exists numerous sub categories where each has it’s own unique following of believers and skeptics alike.

Alien Abductions, Angels, Animal Mutilations, Anomalies, Apparitions, Ball Lightning, Bigfoot, Chemtrails, Close Encounters 1st Kind, Close Encounters 2nd Kind, Close Encounters 3rd Kind, Cryptozoology Behaviors, Cryptozoology Sightings, Deja vu, Demonic Possession, Dowsing, Dream, E.Ts, E.S.P, E.V.P, Elves, Fairies, Feral Species, Ghosts, Ghouls, Gnomes, Hauntings, Healings, Hybrid Species, Incubus, Indigo People, Magick, Mediumship, Missing Time, Mothman, New Jersey Devil, Night Terrors, Occult, Orbs, Ouija Board, Out of Body Experience, Paratography, Phantom Black Cat, Phantom Black Hound, Phantom Human, Plasmoid Phenomena, Premonition, Poltergeist, Psychic Phenomenon, Rods phenomenon, Séance, Shadow Beings, Shamanism, Star Seed, Stigmatized Property, Strange Falls, Succubus, Synchronicity, Trance Mediumship, Ufos, Vampires, Werewolves, and Witchcraft.

And that’s not even a complete listing, but it does give you some ideal as to the overall diversity of the paranormal where each topic contains people who have dedicated themselves to the fullest extent of exploration regarding their chosen interest where folks like myself made it a point of gaining and encompassing every category in their search for the ever elusive missing piece of the anomalous puzzle.

It’s generally very difficult to acquire any level of acceptance within this highly selective community where rampant jealousies and underhanded competition seem to be the preferred method of doing business instead of there being more of a cooperative venture between the many groups and organizations in existence today.

But human nature being what it is, does seem to produce some rather negative behaviors in people, behaviors which never need be enacted nor even considered because everyone holds the power within themselves to express something more positive where I believe the problem is that society in general has become indifferent because by becoming indifferent it then doesn’t need to concern itself with having to handle emotional issues which then may promote feelings of failure and or vulnerability’s.

And especially during times of hardship will you find this the greatest of societal infliction, where then the distribution of acceptance and respect towards each other become the very least of our concerns.

Which in and of itself is sad.

For then what suffers most is our sense of self worth and human dignity.

Beauty And The Beast

The image was taken during an investigation which was conducted at a state park in NY in 2005, after having received numerous reports from campers describing what they thought was a Bigfoot which would shake their tents and make loud grunting sounds about their campsite at night!

For all intent and purposes the figure, both at the time I had taken this photo and even now, strikes me more of being a shadow being than that of a Bigfoot!

Along with the added bonus of there appearing to be a small faery type entity near it’s feet!

And yet this was still originally a Bigfoot investigation.

Which I am sure might be confusing to some people as to how or why it would ever be possible to witness two different types of anomalous occurrences together where believe it or not, it’s not so out of the norm as one might think.

There have been witnesses in South America who have reported sighting landed ufo’s with small gnome like creatures standing next to what appeared as an open hatchway into the grounded craft.

And in North America, there have also been reported witnessed of the phenomenon known as “Trooping Faeries” which almost anyone of Irish descent will inform you are more common in their native Ireland.

So as you can see, the photographic capture of two unrelated phenomenon in parallel with one another is actually rather normal within the realm of paranormal expressions.
