Krystal Depew
Tonight our guest was Krystal Depew of the Illinois Ghost Seekers Society.
Just before going on the air we awkwardly if amusingly learned quite quickly that the "cemetary safety" topic was no way connected to Krystal, as her group doesn't really deal with graveyards.
Growing up near Peroria, Krystal spoke of growing up in a haunted house her parents built: mostly Shadow People. When her father became ill and bed ridden, it seemed the entities were attached to him. Managing to communicate with some of them, the primary being named Jacob Eller. As a full-body apparition, Jacob is more visible than as a Shadow Person. Jacob also tends to look out for Krystal's ill dad. Krystal's sister has espied a female, but no one else has seen the female entity.
As Marquette Heights is filled with ancient Native American burial grounds and such, it was posited possibly that could explain the paranormal activity. Krystal indicated her favourite film being Poltergeist, which has us also learn Kat has never seen the famous film.
Kat asked after the equipment the groups uses; Krystal's favourite pieces of equipment are the REM pod and Mel REM, both developed by Gary Galka. She also likes the Radio Frequency Meter, simply acquired at a hardware store for about $16. She indicated EM Pumps tend to cause slight disorientation to investigators.
Tonight we had listeners in the US, the UK, France, Finland, Australia, Canada and Paraguay.
Krystal spoke about the Skinner House which she conveyed on the season three episode eight edition of My Ghost Story, titled Screamville.
They've investigated Peoria Asylum in Bartonville, Illinois; apparently one George Seller turned the placed around, improving the place immeasurably: no patient horror stories as so often the case in such past asylums. The Bowen Building is the most haunted, in which they heard voices, whistling, moans, full body apparitions, etc.
They've also investigated the rather haunted Cherry Street Bar and Grill haunted with some impressive results. She would love to check out the Villisca Axe Murder House in Villisca, Iowa. She would also like to see the Watseka Wonder, at Kat's suggestion. Henry suggested haunted Hill View Manor.
Krystal gave out the Illinois Ghost Seekers Society website the group's Facebook page, and her own Facebook page. I provided my Paranormal View hub page on my website, indicating people from there can find the show's respective report pages, that we're very findable on Facebook, the official Paranormal View page page, and adding there being information regarding health products people should be taking by indicating anyone wanting to live longer and healthier, and/or with health issues or just... aging in general... could contact me directly, et al.
Kat gave out her Facebook page whilst Barbara neglected to give out her own Facebook information.
