7-Hour Paranormal Investigation of the Gregg County Historical Museum.

A fun and exciting night of paranormal investigating, just as seen in most the popular shows on TV. You will have use of our paranormal equipment at the beginning of the night, while you are being shown techniques and how to use it, from our group of experienced paranormal investigators. Feel free to bring along any of your own equipment. We will have breaks periodically throughout the night. A light jacket could be considered depending on the time of year, as some areas in the locations can get rather cold.

We do not play tricks and are not out to convince anyone of the "afterlife". Please know that you will be among others who may or may not think the same as you, but are all out to seek confirmation of "the other side". We never make a guarantee that the spirit world will make itself known on our investigations, but we can guarantee that we will have fun trying!

Success! An email has been sent to with a link to confirm list signup.
