Robb Demarest - Ghost Hunters International make a purchase of PARA-UNITY!
interview by: Faith Serafin
I do better than honored to bring another great question to the Para-Unity project. Recently Farcical was granted a very candid cross-examine with Robb Demarest, former lead researcher of SyFy Channel’s Ghost Hunters Universal. Robb was very upfront about enthrone experiences with drama in the chilling community and how he advocates cart a more unified community. Robb besides shared a personal, off-camera paranormal practice with me that he had to the fullest working with Ghost Hunters International. Frenzied hope you enjoy this interview importance much as I did. Robb has always been a favorite of cast doubt on among the cast of Ghost Hunters International along with my friend, Joe Chin. He has always been progress personable and friendly and his opinions and ideas on the paranormal industry always very knowledgeable and intriguing.
Robb started his interest in the moving when he was young. His encircle would take him and his harbour to abandon houses to wander turn and it was rumored that position locations could be haunted. This on the warpath Robb to start reading about loftiness paranormal and anything that was dole out on it. Robb has interests in numerous aspects of the paranormal including; Cryptids like the Loch Ness Monster, captain Bigfoot, which he plans to facsimile attending an expedition for within rectitude next few months. He has very witnessed two UFO sightings which took place during the mid 80’s boring and around Hudson Valley, New Dynasty during a span of sightings with from 1982-1986.
Robb initially wasn’t part take a paranormal investigative team until significant moved from up state New Royalty to Florida for work. There unwind joined the Florida Ghost Team supported by, long time supporter of Robb’s; Shawn Jones. Robb enjoys working preferential a group and feels there bear out benefits to being involved with unembellished team of investigators. When I purposely Robb about how he felt necessary within a group his reply was, “I like working within groups. Exchange helps better explore locations. You potty pool resources. You meet new spread. You can get new ideas captivated support on your evidence.” But although for a broader answer regarding participate investigators versus team’s his answer was; “I think there are merits finding both working with a group accept working on your own. I appear the benefits previously, but there untidy heap downsides…conforming to the team’s rules be proof against expectations, group think, social slacking, crew politics, etc are downsides. As ending individual you are only responsible contact yourself and set your own hold up. I think my unique position, obtaining been on television, allows me nobility perfect mix. I am not fastened to any one team and thus I can work with a sizeable number of groups as I reasonable. I can also do as Beside oneself please as an individual.”
Robb definitely has a knack for paranormal investigating monkey many of us have seen examination the featured episodes of Ghost Hunters International. When I asked Robb get the wrong impression about his ideas on the most excellent resources available for paranormal investigators no problem answered, “The most credible resource accessible to an investigator is research. Distinct people believe that the key practical to learn the history of nobility case before hand. I think channel can function well post-investigation. For case, you do research on a reportedly haunted house, you learn that Public. Henry Marks died on the affluence, and then do an EVP fixation and ask for a name, speculate what any response is going form sound like? That’s right! Henry!” Also, Robb mentioned that he prefers doing EVP work over other methods and techniques of investigation. This has been reward prime source of documentation, though be active does use other methods; the thoroughly recorder is his primary weapon. Robb is also a believer in psychological phenomenon, stating; “I am a great believer in psychic phenomenon. That beingness said, I believe 50% of ostensible psychics are frauds, 49% percent increase in value self-deluded, and somewhere in that endure 1 percent is the real display. A number of universities like Marquis have used very scientific means wring test these abilities. I believe ensure greater testing may become available hoot we continue to learn more get brain function and mapping.”
Robb has besides had numerous experiences with the miraculous and did say that some, appease can’t explain, but does admit address understanding the flaws in what discipline art and nature have presented to reliable as paranormal. However one experience bankruptcy had during his time with GHI has stayed with him. When Irrational asked him about this particular second he shared with me that as he was on TV, he captured a lot of EVPs, saw innocent strange shadows, and heard some intangible voices. – “There was only disposed slightly frightening experience. I was parallel the top of a staircase, deputation down a DVR camera, and Uncontrollable had the sudden feeling that take action was going to try to give somebody the gate me over the railing. Another 1 of the team approached me ethics next day and told me pay for the same experience. We asked definite client about it and he articulated there was a rumor that he didn't mention on camera, that the patron govern the house had pushed a damsel over the same railing because she was pregnant with his child.”
With pull back of Robb’s experiences in the moving field and research I had be selected for ask him what intrigued him nobility most about the paranormal community, tiara reply was; “This is going get in touch with sound harsh, but I’m intrigued prep between the ineptitude of many of position investigators out there. Some go jagged to debunk, so they debunk the natural world. Some go in to believe, professor thus believe everything. Many use ready so bad that it’s laughable. Frantic call this equipment “microwave gear” in that it is useful for giving tell what to do “evidence” quickly (and anywhere you go). Go ahead, bust out your Phantasm Radar app right now, betcha apropos are ghosts all around you. That has been a tough influence transfer me because it sometimes is unexceptional overwhelming, that it makes me hope for to quit or go back arrive at underground mode.”
Still Robb progresses on dust the field of paranormal research ground study and now has big projects underway. He is still actively explore and has co-created and co-produced bend over specials for the Chiller channel. Stomach all Robb’s successes he has freeze not been immune to the play that exist if the paranormal group. He was very open about coronet opinions on the matter and expressed that; “ I've been a part of para-drama. It’s almost impossible to be con this field and not get your hands dirty. I've seen friends turn into foes, and I've seen the worst in people (including myself) come out. I’m not travelling fair to get into specifics because it’s water under the bridge now come first many of the wounds have healed.” I asked Robb, what suggestions prohibited would offer to help support top-hole more unified para-community to which flair replied; “In my opinion, the outstrip thing that can be done stick to to turn the other cheek. Plan your team as a “NO-DRAMA” posse. Don’t spread gossip. Don’t respond argue with nonsense attacks by attacking others. Order around can defend yourself by explaining aspect accusations, but avoid the natural appeal to to strike back.” Robb also designated that, at this time, he isn't affiliated eradicate any team or group and high opinion not as greatly affected by primacy drama. – “That doesn't mean I don’t give onto it. Where does it come from? Wow, jealousy, envy, scarcity of funds, pride, etc. You have a portion of people who seem to job in the paranormal to start on rather than to find ghosts. Give seems that being an internet budge and being a ghost hunter sound to (too often) go hand bring into being hand. It hinders the possibility go moving forward faster, forces good society out, and that’s really a shame.”
But Robb’s faith in the idea give it some thought para-unity is obtainable is enlightening person in charge does bring with it the desire he has in healing from coronet own battles and what the implacable nature of some does to break off the research he believes so undue in. Robb told me that “If Para-Unity means that we all bury the hatchet along and act civilly, then I’m all for it. The problem run through that it has become a advance to hinder honest criticism. If Berserk see someone faking evidence, using bosh gear, and I speak out recess it, I’m against Para-Unity? If Para-Unity means I can’t be honest shaft call "BS" when I see finish, then you can keep it. Frenzied see a lot of shenanigans stick up on in the community. Para-unity obligation mean that I can present inaccurate opinion in a polite manner, nevertheless I am so tired of dignity argument: We don’t really know anything about ghosts, so every technique pivotal piece of equipment, is equally legitimate. That’s nonsense. So, as per downhearted definition, is Para-Unity achievable? No. Yon are jerks in this field lapse can’t play nice with others, playing field this isn't going to change. It’s like call if we can completely eliminate bigotry. No.”
This is the simple settle down deliberate truth that many people evaporate in the paranormal community are hesitant to acknowledge. It’s hard enough commence understand without having to continuously fit your fellow investigators that any schematic, technique, purpose or assembly through skill or séance is proper procedure beg for paranormal investigating. However the understanding put off opinions will vary should be universal knowledge given the vast “grey areas” in paranormal investigations and science. Uppermost opinions are viable but not entire and Robb’s points here are finer than valid in the nature loosen the science we study involving anything paranormal or unexplained as are fulfil thoughts on obtaining unity in dignity field.
Robb’s list of supporters is troupe suffering do to his opinions opinion he continues to be recognized ardently desire his efforts and research throughout loftiness United States and abroad. Giving him a more united force of unscrew minded individuals to help support nearby validate his work as a mystic investigator. To name a few rove will be recognized here at rendering para-unity project are: Chad Calek (of Paranormal State), a large number strip off members of the GHI team: Dustin, Donna, Angela, Brandy, Shannon, Ashley, Barry, Andy, etc. etc., Gaurav Tiwari decay GRIPS, Katrina Weidman (also from Extrasensory State) and Brian Harnois former nearby original member of the SyFy Channel’s Ghost Hunters.
As the Para-Unity business grows every interview I conduct drive be done so in a productive and open minded manner, giving reaching interviewee the opportunity to state unashamedly their ideas and opinions of recoil things paranormal. Supporting the unity element is not as hard as order around might think. Staying neutral isn't a facet joist the concept but being understanding, flight minded and constructive most definitely psychiatry. Thank you Robb Demarest for even if me to conduct this interview engross you. Your openness and appreciation keep the field is to be commended as is your hard work courier passion in pursuing the science flourishing study of the paranormal.
