ALISON - INVESTIGATOR, Researcher
Alison has always been intrigued with all things Paranormal, she also started watching horror movies as a teen. At the age of 19 she had a very strange “experience” that left her wanting more, seeking answers to prove that even after death there is “life”. In her late 20’s Alison lost a close family member very suddenly and without warning, this sparked in her a desire to learn, research and explore the paranormal in hopes of making contact with her departed loved one.
A Mom of 2 and a Social Service Worker who loves staying up late and investigating dark haunted places, Alison is thrilled to have found her Parafamily and is excited about everything to come.
Alison is also a certified End of Life Doula.
Alison officially joined The Paranormal Seekers in 2016

ryan - investigator, Researcher
…. Hey there … I’m Ryan, and I am one of the investigators with The Paranormal Seekers.
A little about me … I am a retired police officer, with over 30 years in the “law enforcement” world. I have an extensive investigative background, which includes investigating all sorts of criminal offences from the minor to the most heinous incidents that take place in our society.
While I’ve always been interested in the “paranormal” world, I am the quintessential “skeptic”. I’m an evidence-based fella. I seek to identify any potential evidence. I then attempt to interpret that “evidence”, then weigh it for its objective & corroborative relevance.
I believe that these investigations are important. In many instances, they serve to bring history back to life, and occasionally, peace of mind to some who might need it.

kaz - investigator, Media/Videographer
Kaz is a Registered Massage Therapist and Intuitive Healer, and has been an avid ghost hunter since a young age.

Since then, Kaz has set out on a mission in an attempt to discover the true meaning of what ghosts and spirits really are.

Never afraid to be the first to venture into the depths of a creepy basement or spooky attic, Kaz brings humour and an upbeat sense of adventure to any investigation.

Cathy - INVESTIGATOR
I’m Cathy and super excited to be a part of this incredible team. I was introduced to The Paranormal Seekers through Alison (thanks Alison) whom I have had the pleasure of knowing since 2013 and who has been investigating with Rachel and crew since 2016.
A little about me… I am a mom, a nonna, a business owner. I study mediumship and have a huge passion for the paranormal. For 10 years my family lived in a home full of activity. Hearing and seeing things that let us know we were not alone and sometime scared the crap out of us. This experience is what started my journey and interest in the paranormal world. From books, to visiting haunted castles in England, to cemeteries (one of my favourites), to public investigations - it’s my passion. Hauntings and ghosts have stories waiting to be told. Can’t wait to now find and investigate these stories.
