Mystery Project
In 2018, my friend and fellow investigator Dave Spinks and I did something that, to date, no one else has done. We investigated a historic location rife with energy and strange activity. One that not a single other person has ever investigated.
We spent two days and nights in a place that paranormal investigators dream of, a time capsule of history...and more.
Now, we're taking you inside for a look at what we experienced. You'll hear the history, and you'll see some of the amazing evidence that we collected.
Watch out for some live stream events, and even a contest to win a special edition of our upcoming release.
