Hello,
My name is Wes Forsythe and I hunt ghosts. This web site
catalogs and displays what I have captured, discovered, and
just plain had fun with. Not everything here is evidence...but
everything here is real.
I am not famous. I will probably never be on television
unless I am the witness to the tornado. I am not trying to
"find answers" or validate some past personal
experience. I am a ghost hunter because I enjoy it.
I am relatively new to the field when compared to many of
my peers. However, I have done years of "research"1
and approach my investigations with enthusiasm, professionalism, and as much skepticism
as I feel is warranted on a case-by-case basis.
I am told by many I respect that there are no experts in
this field. So the opinions I present on my site can be
measured on that scale I hope.
My ideas, reasoning, and results have earned me moderator status at itshaunted.com.
Well those reasons plus people think that I am just a really good guy.
I investigate with a mix of technology2
and traditionalism3. I do not believe that we
can expect to solve all aspects of the paranormal by using the
normal. However, I do not believe that personal experiences
constitute proof.
I am not out to "disprove" 4
hauntings. My goal is to collect evidence when possible, and then
I will let
others decide whether the evidence is of substance.
If I
find nothing, that does not mean there is nothing to find: The absence
of proof is not the proof of absence.5
That is not to say I am not skeptical of claims. Even when
I believe a location has paranormal activity, I do not see the value in
believing every noise and shadow are ghosts. I always strive
to find
alternative explanations for events when possible, but it is
not up to me to tell you that you did not see your dead
grandmother.
So enjoy your visit here. I hope that you find some of my
presentations interesting and others downright fascinating. At
worst, read the footnotes...those are usually pretty cute.
