Field Reports from Vicksburg National Military Park - Vicksburg, Mississippi

Executive Producer: Rick Garner

5pm - We all meet at the Texas Monument on Monday evening to examine what Janis has confirmed to be a very active area. This monument marks an area where Union troops stormed up a steep embankment, only to be shot by Confederate soldiers waiting at the top. Janis placed a small cassette recorder on the monument and the tape contains what seems to be voices and light bumps to the microphone. This was before we arrived on scene and when Janis was not near to the monument.

6pm - Rob notices "smoke" coming from the cannon of the bronze structure in his camera's viewfinder as he's rolling footage. He thinks he's imaging things or that someone has placed a cigarette in the cannon. There isn't one. I see the same stream of heat, which seems to come from an object that is cool to the touch. This cannon has been a focal point for activity in some of Janis' previous pictures.

6:30pm - Orbs began to appear in single numbers as dusk and night fell. A bicycle strobe light was placed on the monument and orbs began to be drawn to the monument. Rob used his camera's speed light to flash on and off the statue and left it on a few times.

Conclusions: By 7pm, we had numerous orb shots, some with many...others with singles. Although the area was mysterious while dark, I never was frightened - just cautious. Battlefields are known for activity and we all walked away with proof.

These images were taken Monday evening, October 16, between 6 and 7:30 p.m. at the Texas Monument in the park.

The first image is of the night's first orb. The light source was not in the trees and nothing present was reflective.

The next image was taken in total darkness and shows a large orb. The picture was taken due to a cold chill in the air.

The final three are were taken in order by Janis Raley as orbs began to populate the area. A bicycle strobe light was placed in the cannon and extra flashes of light were used. More orbs seems to appear in between our light flashes.

Unexplained Cases | Baltimore Street Murder House

Written by: Darren Dedo Case Filed: 06 /20/19 - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Executive Producer: Rick Garner Battlefields, homes, pubs, and restaurants. Almost anywhere you go in Gettysburg you will come across a place that is supposedly haunted. It is very easy to understand why. Tens of thousands of men lost their lives here in this small Pennsylvania town in July of 1863. We visited one unassuming and haunted location that was here during the Battle of Gettysburg and was a casualty collection point just like many buildings were used for back then. It would make sense that the spirit who sets off ghost hunting gadgets in this Baltimore Street home fought and died in the Civil War. But, this resident spirit has no connection to the Battle of Gettysburg. Our guide for the evening, P aranormal Investigator Robert "Night Monkey" Simmons with Gettysburg Paranormal Association / Gettysburg Ghost Tours . He shares with everyone the details. “The morning of August 31, 198

Faith and the Paranormal

Written by: Rick Garner Case Filed: 4/9/23 Executive Producer: Rick Garner Decades spent documenting and exploring unexplained cases, Rick Garner has often experienced resistance, concern and judgement from those who share his faith in God. Often he encountered the belief that no human spirits roam the earth and that there are only "familiar spirits" - demons masquerading as loved ones. However, in his discernment, Rick knew that not only was he not encountering demons but neither were multiple people who were sharing with him their unexplained activity. He began to make connections with many who shared his faith and an interest in the paranormal. Rick collected 14 hours of video footage with guests answering the same questions and edited that into "Faith and the Paranormal." This special documentary attempts to go deep into finding an answer to the question: can faith and the paranormal coexist? We thank our special guests: Brandon Kramer, Angela Boley,

Written by: Darren Dedo Case Filed: 9/24/22 Executive Producer: Rick Garner Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: the birthplace of America. Home to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall - where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were signed. So much history and some say a lot of ghosts. The Unexplained Cases team traveled to the City of Brotherly Love, to investigate several paranormal hotspots known to be haunted by the spirits from the Revolutionary War…of famous business owners and politicians…some really crazy dressed apparitions…and possibly a pirate, too! In our second of three investigations, we visit the world-famous McGillin’s Olde Ale House in the heart of Philly. This watering hole opened to the public when Abraham Lincoln was elected President! Catherine and Williams McGillin poured the first beer there in 1860. Ma and Pa McGillin raised their 13 kids upstairs from the bar. Pa McGillin passed away in 1901, and Ma took over the joint. Ma ran it until she p
