NEPRS FAQ's

Frequently asked questions



  • Who are you and why are you doing this?
    • The NEPRS was founded in 2005 by a group of paranormal enthusiasts and mediums who wanted to pursue their unique interests in a tangible way.  Our members come from both spiritual and empirical backgrounds, both with the common hope and belief that there is something wonderful and miraculous beyond physical existence as humankind currently understands it.
  • Is the NEPRS affiliated with any other organization or religion?
    • No, the NEPRS is a completely independent, not for profit society of people interested in exploring the paranormal.
  • What is NEPRS position on the phenomenon of orbs?  You post many pictures of them on your web pages.  Aren't all orbs just dust and pollen?
    • For a more in-depth look at this subject please visit our What Are Orbs page.
    • In brief, because we are not scientists conducting experimental research for review, we cannot make a conclusive decision as to the actual source of each and every orb artifact, nor can we dismiss them.  To hold either view exclusive of the other would not be empirical or scientific and nurtures a myopic paradigm that sacrifices the possibilities to simple narrowmindedness.
  • I think my house is haunted.  Do you charge for investigations?
    • No, the NEPRS does not charge for investigations but we do retain the right to use any and all data collected during the investigation. Donations to help with transportation costs to the investigation site (and hot coffee) are always welcome but are not required or expected.
  • If I send you my photographs can you tell me if I have a picture of a ghost?
    • We love receiving pictures from our visitors and members.  Though we cannot certify you have  a picture of something paranormal, if we like your picture we may post it  in our visitors gallery.
  • Are you people crazy?
    • If we said no would you believe us?
