What is Professional Paranormal Investigations - PPI?

I guess we have to thank Television, especially Reality TV for bringing paranormal investigating into the common accepted practices of today’s society. If you think about it, 18 years ago you’d expect to see a bunch of geeky people running around chasing ghosts or spirits around cemeteries. Even though it has been investigated and documented for centuries, everyday culture has just begun to accept the fact that there is something else going on we cannot explain. That the people experiencing this activity are not crazy. That we can be seeing shadows or hearing voices and experiencing out of the ordinary activity which cannot be explained.


This is where Professional Paranormal Investigations comes in. PPI as we like to call it was started by paranormal investigators Jennifer & Steve Hodgson. Having conducted investigations with another group, they decided they wanted to bring the paranormal investigations to the next level. There are so many “Ghost Hunting” groups in every city, many of which come and go a year later. Some do it strictly for fun and the thrill of the hunt. Some mean well but do not take what they are doing very seriously. Even worse some came up with a “new idea” on how to capture a ghost and make a mockery of what we do. This bothered Jenn & Steve. If a homeowner or business owner is experiencing activity and are requesting assistance it should become an immediate priority. It is a priority to the person calling since they are experiencing activity and want answers…why should the investigative group not be 100% serious and professional in return?

We take our faith very seriously and will always respect yours. Not always, but a great deal of the time we experience evil at our investigations. Whether demonic, dark magic or evil spirits, this is nothing to play with. Just keep in mind that everything negative you experience is not necessarily an evil presence. When choosing a team, you need to choose one who is aware of what may be in your home and is prepared to deal with it head on. We have experienced first hand the horrors when groups go in (who are doing it for fun – or claim to be investigating scientifically) do not take what is there seriously. Trust me the problems will increase threefold. You NEED a team that will think about you and your safety after they leave (or in some cases had their fun). Not every group has the ability to approach and deal with evil and negative energies. Choose wisely…

You can be assured that at PPI we WILL ALWAYS take your case seriously. We are available to assist you. We know that you are seeking answers. Well amazingly so are we. We take a different approach though to an investigation than most others. We have consulted numerous parapsychologists on what to look for and what we should be doing. We scientifically document everything we do. If we experience something, we immediately attempt to debunk what is happening. Sorry, 9 times out of 10 “orbs” are just dust. If an EVP is not clear and if not everyone hears the same thing clearly on first listen, then it is not an EVP. Maybe it is noise…maybe it is a voice, we do not disregard what we find, we just place it in the body of evidence. If we cannot help you determine an answer we WILL suggest you bring in someone to do this. We work closely with a few people who can assist.


We use a psychic medium and sensitives to assist us during investigations. Some of our investigators “may” be able to gather some additional information on the energies present. We use this information to see if our scientific evidence matches their findings. If it does, the evidence becomes much more credible from both perspectives.


We try our best to help as many people as possible who are truly in need.


PPI is NOT a TV show
. We do not film the time we are there for some YouTube video. We respect your privacy and we are not in this for the so-called “fame and fortune.”


Professional Paranormal Investigations has also been featured on two separate episodes of “My Ghost Story – Caught On Camera” which aired on the BIO channel.  We have turned down many invitations to be on TV or do paranormal shows. We are here to help people in need of help…period!


We DO NOT post evidence from private home or business investigations. It is our promise of confidentiality to our clients. Sorry if you do not believe we do all of this, but we have audio in our private files to prove every investigation listed!


Do you have paranormal activity going on in your home or business? Has anyone else, other than yourself experienced this activity? Are you sure that the activity cannot be explained?

If you are having activity and believe your home or business is being haunted or has unusual paranormal activity we are here to help. Our experienced investigators will contact you to set up a preliminary interview at your place. We will talk with you about what you are experience, we will ask to see the areas where the activity is taking place. We will request to see any evidence you have of the activity.


If you would like some more information on our group, please select the Request An Investigation link, complete the requested information and someone will get back to you as quickly as possible (This may not be the next day! May be a day or two)
