Crossroads Paranormal Radio

Mr Jim "Weird" Willis was our guest on this the 3rd Anniversary of Crossroads Paranormal Radio. Jim has been one of our favorite guests over the years and always has great "Weird" stories to tell and tonight was no exception. Jim is the Co-Author of Weird Ohio and Weird Indiana as well as others.

Our guest didn't show tonight so we had Gregg Cable of Midwest Paratalk Radio call in and join us. We talked about paranormal TV programs, conferences and more. We had a great time.

Visionsmagazineonline.com was an idea Tara had for years – to create a forum to find others that have had personal paranormal experiences themselves, but could not explain away or troubled them in some way, and share these findings based on back and forth conversation and research, and share that help and advice with others to gain insight, and perhaps get some help in some way for themselves personally.
The original idea was to create a newsletter. Joe convinced Tara that a website will reach the world and within 2 1/2 years of working on Visions day and night, 7 days a week, two computer workstations and countless hours invested in writing and research of paranormal phenomenon, they are one of the most respected sources of Paranormal reporting today.

"Paranormal Cops" follows a group of larger-than-life cops who walk one beat during the day as real-life Chicago-area police officers and another at night when they apply their forensic and investigative expertise to paranormal casework. Responding to the pleas of ordinary people who are victimized by distressing and inexplicable activities in their homes and workplaces, as well as taking cases from their day jobs when called upon, these cops bring their no-nonsense approach to hunting ghosts and real-life police skills to separate the fact from fiction and often happen upon results much scarier than the paranormal.

Our guest didn't show up tonight so we talked about what we had going on paranormally. we took questions from the chat room and callers. Started out kind of slow because we were dead tired from a long weekend of filming but got better as it went along.

We do not speculate or sensationalize, but rather approach each case from the position of scientific researchers. Our goal is to collect evidence, analyze it thoroughly and present our findings to the client in a clear and concise manner.

We are researchers above all other pursuits. We question not only “what”, but “why” and “how”. We aim to answer such questions through scientific experimentation and the gathering of observable data.
