AGHOST has fun at the fair

On Saturday, September 29th, AGHOST participated in the Boeing Paranormal Expo at the Kent Commons. While in the past we have stayed away from these kinds of events, this year we decided to just go for it.

And boy did we have fun. We had a great turn out of members who wanted to help out with the booth. I'm sure I'm forgetting some but thanks again, Steve, Madeline, Rachael and Janet for staying all day. Thanks also to Dani, Merlyn and Dustin for helping out.

And a very special thanks to Sheri for putting it all together -- I must say that I think our booth was the best. (Hey Sheri, did you know that our tablecloth would be purple when you designed the booth display or was that your psychic side showing, again?)

Even though at times we had more people behind the counter than in front of it, we were able to get the word out about AGHOST, what we do and, more important, that we are just normal people, well normally. The candy on the counter helped bring people over, but it was our winning personalities and fascinating conversation that kept them there, and in one couple’s case, brought them back to ask more questions, again and again and again.

Look for AGHOST to put in an appearance at other events like this in the future.

Ross Allison on SCI-FI's Ghost Hunters

The last summer, TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) and the
SCI-FI Channel came to Seattle to investigate the Northern State Hospital and the Seattle Underground. That episode encompassing both investigations aired early this fall, on September 26th.

AGHOST President and founder Ross Allison, who often works at the Seattle Underground, was given the opportunity to participate in the investigation with TAPS. Although most of Ross' investigative work was edited out (figures), he did manage to make an appearance as a guest witnesses and tells of his own ghostly experience while working late at the Underground.
