Knoxville Area Paranormal and Cryptid Research Group
We seek only the TRUTH...
Welcome to the Knoxville Area Paranormal and Cryptid Research Group
Home      Meet the Team





These are the first team members you will have contact with.  Their job is to assist you in developing a history of your experiences and any relevant information to your case.  They will begin a case file for you that will be updated by the other teams as information is discovered.
The EVP team specializes in capturing Electronic Voice Phenomenon.  These are voices, growls, humming, singing, and other noises that are not heard in an area, but are recorded and can be played back.
The Historical and Folklore Research team handles the site records, which can include previous owners, land deeds, etc.  They will also explore any folklore or legends associated with the site.  This information is kept confidential until the investigators complete an initail visit.  This way we eliminate contamination of any findings during an investigation.  If the historical record backs up something we find it is just another layer of credibility for the evidence.
Our investigative team will complete an initial site survey to develop a baseline record.  After this they will use various devices and techniques to try and gather evidence of the claims you may have.  Their findings are then added to your case file to be reviewed independently by other group members.  Only if two or more members find something 'potentially interesting' will we discuss this openly with the group.
We employ the aid of a sensitive on most investigations.  These members are not given information concerning history, experiences, or claims until after they complete their investigation.  This is another step towards building a solid case for any evidence we might gather.
Our Technical Department handles all equipment set up, tear down and upkeep.  We employ a wide array of devices during an investigation ranging from basic environmental testers, analog and digital audio and video recorders, electronic measurement equipment, night vision modules, IR and Thermal cameras and an ever changing range of experimental and one-off equipment.





 
 
Our Associate Members belong to our Meetup.com site.  They actively participate in group investigations and training sessions, as well as attending monthly meetings.  Upon sufficient training in the investigation process they will accompany the Core Team on site investigations. 
 
We rely heavily upon our associate members for information on sites to visit and future investigations.  One of our main goals when starting this group was the open discussion of the paranormal.  We take every opportunity to educate our members in many areas of this field.
