There are so many things in this world that none of us understand. When they encounter these things, most people just shrug their shoulders and say, "That's weird", and then they go about their business as if they had never even witnessed it.

What's really out there?

I dunno.

   A million documentaries, television shows, movies, books, and even websites like this one try to answer that very simple question.

   Not one of them knows the answer.

    I don't want to offend anyone's beliefs by saying that, so please don't get me wrong. This isn't about religion, or anyone's belief system. Spiritual beliefs and religion should never be compared to, or mixed with scientific fact. That's the whole reason why it's called faith. Mixing and comparing causes a lot of arguments and animosity within the field when we really SHOULD be working together.

   There are far too many in this field who claim to to be experts, and know the answers. I mean, how many websites have you gone to that claim that photographed orbs are ghosts, spirits of the dead, or even intelligent entities? At the same time, they have no substantial evidence to back those claims up.

   This isn't about the great orb debate, but about making claims of knowledge that nobody could possibly possess. Unlike many others, we're willing to admit that you won't find any answers on this website. At this time, there are no answers, and we refuse to make something up just to look good.

   However, we DO have a LOT of questions.

   It's common sense. When we believe that we KNOW the answers, we stop asking questions. What's the point in asking somebody about what you already know? So, you stop asking questions and you stop learning.

   Not us... And hopefully not you.

   We all have beliefs, and have touched the beyond in some way. It could have been something that you've seen out of the corner of your eye when you were ten years old, or even a recent dream you can barely remember. Whatever your reason, if you're here reading this, the odds are good that you're somehow drawn to "Spooky Stuff" as friends and I like to call it.

The term "Spooky Stuff" admittedly sounds juvenile, and can cover a lot of ground. What I'm talking about are ghosts, spooks, hauntings, spirits, poltergeists, demons, angels, or whatever other name you want to throw out there to describe these things.

The purpose of this site is to embrace the fact that we don't have all the answers. If you want to hear what we're trying to do here and why, you'll want to check out our Mission Statement. Hopefully, you'll be able to appreciate what we're doing. You may even want to join our board, and work with us.

If you like what you've seen on this site, or if it's helped you in some way, please let us know. We like to hear that we're doing something right. Not only that, but I LOVE to talk about this stuff with people. If you have questions or comments, I'd love to hear from ya! You can email me at BeyonderBill@yahoo.com, or get me on yahoo messenger under the same name. You can even go to my MySpace page! I'm easy to get hold of.

To expand our ability to help others, we've organized a paranormal investigation and ghost hunting team. All members of our crew have years of experience with the paranormal, and have put a lot of work into it. The organization is called 'Beyond Paranormal Investigations' and we're available for all ghost hunts, and paranormal investigations in the Southeast Michigan area. If you're a member of another group in our area, be sure to introduce yourself. Maybe we can help each other out and work together. The organization's official site can be found HERE.
