Truthseekers Podcast: Ghosts, Maybelle, and a Haunted Victorian Mansion

Updated: Nov 21

In my episode of Truthseekers, I shared the experiences that have kept me hooked on the paranormal, including some wild childhood expeirences and my previous work with Paranormal Xpeditions. I grew up in an old area rich in haunted lore, where my “imaginary friend,” Maybelle, turned out to be a real spirit. Years later, her headstone was discovered in my own yard. This memory shaped me, igniting my interest in uncovering mysteries with a grounded approach, even in the face of the unexplainable.

On the show, I gave some behind-the-scenes insight into my bus, which I’ve slowly converted into a traveling base for investigations. Every adventure comes with real-world challenges—sometimes ghosts, sometimes just crumbling architecture, and more often than I’d like, run-ins with the living.



One of the highlights of our chat was talking about a Victorian mansion I’ve been involved with for years, where restoration meets active hauntings. Each room seems to have its own spectral cast, from a former resident who allegedly combusted to the lingering presence of a young girl’s spirit. This house, with its eerie history, keeps me coming back to document everything it has to offer.

We also got into how my Native American background influences my approach. I use sage in my investigations to clear energy and create a space of respect. But it’s not just about tradition; for me, it’s also a form of protection and grounding in a field where you never know what you’re going to walk into.

You can catch the whole episode to hear more of my stories and my thoughts on why we do what we do.
