Issue 71 – Paranormal Boobs of the 2-Legged Variety

By Kirby Robinson

We have so much news busting all over, we can't fit it all into this edition. Don't worry we won't let any deceptions slip through the crack…

Jen Arnold Update

Maybe the FBI needs the help of the Eye on the Paranormal crew. Our ragtag band of paranormal fighters would be happy to teach the FBI how to get the job done. We have yet to hear if anything is taking place at all. There are rumors flying about but we refuse to post them until we're shown solid proof. We'll keep you updated. [There was a posting of a receipt on Jen Arnold's Facebook page for virus removal].

Fake "eyeontheparanormal.com" Site Has Been Shut Down!

The haters, fakers and the paranormal bullies took a big blow to their chins and ego this past week as their much-loved website eyeontheparanormal.com was removed. I wish to thank everyone who helped. GOD [who makes everything possible], my band of ragtag fighters at the real Eye on the Paranormal, and my legal team who are now preparing legal filings to go after the owners of the site for damages.

Kiddie Porn is Alive & Well in the Paranormal "Industry"

About a year ago, Ron Tebo and me, along with others, were trying to protect kids from predators on the A&E Psychic Kids Facebook page. [You know that fake show with fake psychics looking to make money off the backs of kids]. We warned everyone about people in the psychic and paranormal world with ties to kiddie porn and possible pedophiles. We were mocked, but…who has egg on their face now? [I give credit to Shannon Sylvia for breaking the story].

PARANORMAL PEEPS. Via Shannon Sylvia MA ghost hunting warning: Tom Laughlin, director of Chicopee Paranormal Investigators was arrested for possession and distribution of child pornography. This has been confirmed.

Here is the news story

This should be a warning to teams to do much better background checks. The public really needs to take a close look at a team prior to letting them into your home and around your kids.

Scifake.com is Back!

We welcome Ron and his team we understand that Reporter X is now with him. Here's his first report:

Paranormal  Boobs Caught Showing Their Caveman Ways…Rate Women of the Paranormal Based on Bra Size

To be honest, I listen to very little paranormal talk radio anymore. If I mentioned who I listen to, they'd get tons of hate mail.[There are show hosts who would love to have me on but that growing herd of fake para-celebs tell them they won't do a show I'm featured on. Or the network owners inform them that their show would get the boot if they invite me on]. But with the amount of work I do it leaves me little time to relax.

That's the reason I was shocked when I received several emails with people complaining about what took place on the Dead Air Paranormal Radio Show on April 26. Listeners were invited to call in and hang out in a chat room to nominate woman of the paranormal in what was an internet beauty show.

Dead Air Paranormal Radio Show shared a link.

April 26 Tonight on Dead Air Paranormal Radio Show Will Scoville takes the wheel for Shelley Wade for a night of discussing the "HOTTEST" Female Investigators in the field. Join Will at 9pm EST/8pm CST as he counts down the "TOP 5" and maybe more HOTTEST FEMALE PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS! Links to Pics for voting and your Viewing pleasure will be posted in the chat. Click on the link below for the show page.

It seems most of the links to the ladies photos have been removed as the army of the ladies of the paranormal really started to complain.

I'm not here to judge anyone as it's their show. [I was even on the Sunday evening edition a while back]. But I have issues with what was done from the side of the women's safety and the integrity of the field.

We have sickos in the world. Turn on any newscast and more often or not, you'll hear reports of women missing: Old, young, rich, poor, white, black, brown. They are somebody's love, somebody's mom, somebody's daughter. There's a war on women going on, whether it's a sense of male entitlement or the ever-growing porn addiction that's sweeping the internet.

What kind of background checks do most paranormal groups do? What form of background checks are done concerning ghost hunts for profit that are held at night? At remote locations? When we make female paranormal investigators sex objects, what kind of ideas do we plant in people's heads?

It increases the stereotypes when it comes to the media. Look at the group Paranormal Hot Squad. Is that how we think paranormal investigators are supposed to look? What does it say to females who'd like a shot at a paranormal reality show? We have overweight men on the shows. We have bald[ing] men on the shows. But you don't see any overweight female investigators on a show. [Sadly, I have it on good authority from people actually on the set that a few women featured on paranormal reality shows had to sleep their way onto the team and show]. So is this behavior we should expect as a way women should make it? I doubt if you'd want your daughter to make that choice.

Lastly, it was referenced by one of the show's hosts to one of the  woman mentioned in the list that it was great for her to have good looks as it helped her move up through the ranks in the paranormal industry.

NEWSFLASH! The paranormal is not an industry! It's been made an industry by those who seek to make money from it. The paranormal is a field of study of the unknown - plain and simple. Now if you want to talk about a paranormal entertainment industry that would be fine. Conventions and overnight ghost hunts/lockdowns are for entertainment purposes. They shouldn't be done for serious research nor in any form does it help anyone outside of the fake para-celebs that seem to run everything now. As the term Paranormal Industry gets tossed about, more people see how they make money and at the same time scam the public. So they adapt their traits and do it the same way – so they can make money.

Men are men, women are women, we are the same no matter if ones looks stop traffic or cause people to run down the street in fright. We all have the same value and need to be respected.

Just Because You Call Yourself A: Preacher/Teacher/Demonologist/Exorcist—Doesn’t Make You One!

For some time I've watched the paranormal field claim that they are now the leading experts when it comes to demons. Why? Because in many ways the Christian church has left behind the Great Commission to preach the word, heal the sick, raise the dead, and cast out demons. In exchange, it has embraced the new age movement of a false gospel of prosperity, political involvement, and fear that if they stand in God's word they'll lose ratings and be called old fashioned.

There are too many fake demon hunters, doctors, chasers, stalkers, etc. running loose. Even some pastors and priests embrace teaching and techniques that have no basis in scripture. Anything goes as some of those "paranormal industry types" are teaching that you can be an atheist and cast out demons.

Within the realm of demonology, there is always a chance that an ego can run wild and get addicted to the sense of power and privilege. Cults of personality begin to pop up. How can you tell if it's a cult? Look for certain signs:

Zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader, alive or dead.

Treating his/her belief system, ideology, and practices as the absolute Truth and law.

Questioning, doubt, and dissent are not tolerated.

The leadership prescribes, often in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel.

The group takes on an “us vs. them” mentality, where you’re “either with us or against us.”

The group claims an exalted, special status for itself and its leader and may believe that they’re on a special mission to save humanity.

Does this remind you of someone/group within the paranormal? 

NEXT WEEK – We take a very long look at this subject and tackle the matter of paranormal bullies.

David Roundtree Interview about The Probe Part 2

By Martha Hazzard-Decker

Author’s note – This author made several attempts to contact Andy Coppock to obtain his view regarding his modifications on the inductive probe. Coppock did not respond.

Just what is the Probe? Does it fall under the realm of Instrumental Transcommunication devices (EVP & ITC)? This is a question that can be debated probably all day long between ITC paranormal users and those investigating paranormal possibilities but in a more definitive and scientific manner. Part one of this interview was with author and ITC researcher April Slaughter. She believes the Probe works and contact can be made with the other side. In Part two one of the four Probe testers, David Roundtree explains his thoughts about working with the Probe and if he thinks it works.

Slaughter had stated that there are other inductive probes out there and she didn’t want individuals to see photos of the Probe Andy Coppock gave her for fear that it could be mistaken with the common inductive probe. If you google Andy Coppock a vast array of information can be found about him and his device. However, there are not as many videos found showing Coppock using his Probe. It seems, according to quite a few comments on websites, that there used to be quite a few videos posted. There are numerous skeptics posting comments about how voice is coming from the device on these websites along with a few believers.

David Roundtree has researched paranormal phenomena for about 25 years using a scientific point of view and is the director of Scientific Paranormal Investigative Research Information and Technology (S.P.I.R.I.T). Roundtree is also the co-director of New Jersey Paranormal Research Group along with several other groups, including those involving engineering. His primary research is studying electronic voice phenomena (EVP), environmental alterations present during possible paranormal activity and searching for the source. He has former law enforcement background and approaches paranormal investigations using his forensic training in conducting a search for possible reasons causing activity.

Roundtree stated, “there isn’t a shred of evidence and no scientific explanation,” for voices coming through on the Probe. He explained that if an individual understands how the inductive probe works then they would understand how, “far fetched,” obtaining any EVP sounds. There are numerous inductive probes listed for sale on eBay. They come in a variety of sizes and prices. They are designed to work with tone test sets to identify and trace wires within a group with out damaging insulation. Using the inductive Probe is similar to using RF band radio and expecting it to, “magically pick up scanning words,” according to Rountree. He did say that using proper methods, “communication may be possible.”

Roundtree said that EVP is possible, especially when using a dynamic microphone, but they are rare. In about 25 years of research Roundtree said he has about 25 recordings he would classify as an EVP. He described the use of Shack Hacks, ghost boxes and the Ovilus as entertainment and not actual professional, scientific tools. The Shack Hack is a radio which randomly scans AM and FM stations. Their speed of scanning can be adjusted by the user or maker of the modifications. The Franks Box operates with an AM chip and works the same as the Shack Hack, going up and down the AM band. According to Roundtree, without an RF spectrum analysis three is no way to figure where the words are coming from using the Shack Hack or a ghost box.

“The Ovilus is a hoot and is sold for entertainment and not scientific.” . Tools like the Ovilus have a large amount of words programmed into their controls and when listening to it phonetically often words will make sense to the listener. There are 10,000 words programmed into a word memory chip that is triggered by environmental changes decided by the builder, according to Roundtree. When it comes to individuals claiming they heard their name mentions, Roundtree stated there are over 1,100 common names programmed into the vocabulary. This would stand to reason that should one be in a large group with the Ovilus running someone in the group might hear their name called out. “Any item sold as a phone app for $1.99 is designed to use when you get together with friends and you want to spook someone. It’s designed like an oracle.” Remember the old eightball nearly everyone had as a child? You would ask it a question then turn it over to reveal the answer to your question with a response of yes or no.

The Probe used by Coppock has been used by Roundtree and others for years, but as a tool for work and not the paranormal. It’s used to trace out wiring. It’s used by moving down pins till you find the wire you’re looking for and it does pick up EMF, but the quality of the speaker is very poor said Rountree. He explained they have a cheap speaker and it would not be possible to hear a human quality voice coming from it.

Roundtree stated he has seen videos of it in use and the voices allegedly coming from the Probe do fall into the human harmonic spectral range. Roundtree said it is hard to ask him to believe it is coming from the Probe and to “buy into the myth.” Roundtree said, “the voice is not coming from the wand (Probe) because of the quality.” Roundtree does not know how Coppock is doing the voice with the Probe. He explained that anyone can do the sound analysis using files such as Audacity.  These programs can take apart the acoustic quality and will show that the voice Coppock said is coming from the Probe is definitely human and is “coming from somewhere.” Roundtree said, “The Probe is getting interesting files but there is no scientific value to claim.”

The “ITC community has it wrong and there is fraud,” according to Roundtree.  He said the key is in knowing EMF and EVP, how it works and how sounds are broadcast and received back. You can’t take one or two pieces of equipment to decide if it’s communication because that should take 10-12 pieces of equipment, according to Rountree.

Roundtree believes one has a better chance of getting a good EVP by using a good quality recorder and a headset. One that he recommends is the ZOOM. He said a dynamic microphone and good headset should be used with recorders so one can hear in real time. “There is no button on them that says normal or paranormal.”

What does Rountree do before he classifies a sound as an EVP? He will send the sound clip to five random  people he knows without telling them what he thinks it says and let them decide. If they say they hear what he heard, then he classifies it as an EVP.

Roundtree is the author of “Paranormal Technology: Understanding the Science of Ghost Hunting.”  You can find a link for his book and additional information on his website Spin Investigations. This is Roundtree’s first book to provide a scientific method to ghost hunting. It includes in-depth explanations, techniques, experiments and answers.
