M.V.P.'s Founder, Investigator, Cameraman

Bear is the founder of Mytic Valley Paranormal. He is a man who wears many hats. Since we believe that "MORE PEOPLE ARE HAUNTED THAN HOUSES", we will work with you to find a HAPPY MEDUIM.

My hero is my wife Henrietta . She takes great care of me and our four children, and let me tell you thats a job you never punch out on. God bless you my love.

I began my journey into the paranormal originally because of the crossing of my beloved mother-in-law. She lived with my wife and I for several years, but had serious health problems during the last few years of her life. We were very close to each other. Many mornings were spent together drinking our first cup of coffee and talking mess about my wife (her daughter). She was my sounding board and since she almost always agreed with me - life was good! Then, one Thanksgiving day she decided to leave all who she had loved and my life has never been the same since! It took us a few months before we would go into her room. It always felt so cold! Then it began. At first it was as subtle as feeling like someone was sitting at the edge of the bed. Next came the touching!  Always while at sleep and only me!  My wife who has always had a different view of life-after-death knew it was her mom. It took several months and even more paranormal experiences for me to finally believe in what was actually happening to me. I was being contacted from the other side.  Coming from a Fundamentalist Baptist background this thought process was a very big stretch for me.  Five years later, here I am, I'm GHOST HUNTING with the best of them!

Web Editor, Interviewer, and Event Promotions Coordinator

I have been involved in "Spiritual Work" for over 25 years. First, with some seminars in the Bay Area for "Trance Channeling" and later became a student at the Sacramento Chapter of the BERKELEY PSYCHIC INSTITUTE. It was a great time for spiritual and healing education back in the 80's and early 90's. Much like the past 10 or so years for all things "PARANORMAL"!  Having had most of my positions in various communication fields - I guess it's not  a  wonder that I helped found an organization that deals with the business of SPIRIT COMMUNICATION!

Our Historian and Investigator

Event Organizer and Secretary

Research Team, Investigator

I first became interested in the paranormal after watching the first episode of the X-files. As far as my current interest goes, it fills the entire range of the scope. I have always been a "see to believe" type of person. That at least was up until buying my first home in 2008. I have experienced many things in the house that are not explainable, These were easily passed off as being tired or whatever but then guests started reporting the same sort of experiences. I no longer can deny something is going on. My upbringing tells me thoughts like this are a big No No but I can no longer live with that idea. My ultimate goal is to find out what really is out there. Assuming I am not crazy and there is another reality or side my dream is to devote anything possible to give them a name and a face.

Investigator

I was always scared of the dark growing up, but came to realize that I've been sensitive to spirit energy most of my life. In the past couple years I've been working on conquering my fear of what's in the dark and paranormal investigation seemed like a perfect way to do it. I've had experiences in my life that have taught me there is more to our existence once our time on earth is over.

I look forward to learning and growing with each investigation and of course hope to capture evidence with the team as we go into each new environment. I keep an open mind, but at the same time I'm constantly looking at all the variables in any situation.

Its a pleasure to be able to work with and be a part of the Mystic Valley Paranormal team.
