Skylands Paranormal Investigations Expands Due to Merger

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 15, 2008 -- Since 2005, Hackettstown and Warren County have been able to call upon Skylands Paranormal Investigations (SPI) to perform high tech investigations for the “haunted” homes and businesses in the region. However, due to a recent discussion with other regional organizations, these services will now be available for the entire state of New Jersey, as well as NYC and Eastern Pennsylvania.

The recent merger of SPI with a group of independent researchers has made this expanded coverage possible. On March 30th, 2008, SPI officially closed its doors to become a part of the New Jersey Paranormal Resource Group (NJPRG). “I am really excited about the new organization,” says David Rountree, former SPI director and current co-director of NJPRG. “In the past, SPI has only been able to do a few investigations outside the Warren County area. Now we have the qualified manpower to cover a much larger geographical region than before.” NJPRG co-director John Keegan agrees. “Not only can we cover the state of New Jersey, but we can extend out coverage into New York City and Eastern Pennsylvania. Additionally, we can offer our services to other organizations who wish to bring in our level of technology to perform a more in depth study of a particular case.”

The new organization has two regional teams covering the northwestern and southeastern areas of New Jersey and surrounding locations, but the teams often work together on larger cases. Rountree, who is also the organization’s Lead Research Associate, designs a lot of the equipment they deploy. “We spend a lot of time doing research and think tank activity to determine effects we need to monitor. Often times, the equipment to accomplish this does not exist, so we have to build it. We have a lot of resources that are unique to us in data gathering and analysis.”

NJPRG has agreed to take on the initiatives that began with SPI. “Skylands (Paranormal Investigations) was in the midst of a five year study of the Hackettstown area, and we will continue to support that study,” adds Keegan. “We have always maintained a strong community commitment to the Hackettstown area and that will continue.” NJPRG, like SPI, offers it services for free.
