Paranormal Lockdown - S3E4

I figured since I've already done posts featuring Buzzfeed Unsolved and Ghost Adventures, I figured I would keep the ball rolling and find other shows that investigate Bobby Mackeys.

As a side note, to keep things brief I cherry pick the moments I can discuss using established facts. I don't like spending time making fun of people like this when they pretend to feel a ghost in the room, its just not worth it.

---

Oh my god! I looked for a picture of the rooftop to help identify the different additions to the buildings over the years but I couldn't find a good picture. I should have watched these ghost shows as a visual reference!

---

So it turns out that one of the men who was on the Ghost Adventures episode covering BM's is the host for Paranormal Lockdown. Not only that, it was the was the dude who said that a spirit that followed him home after the hunt ruined his marriage. Ghost Divorce.

---

I do want to thank this show for not bringing up satanism when they first introduce the story of Pearl Bryan. They did slip up by saying the murder followed a botched abortion, which Scott Jackson planned to do, but it never actually happened (the coroner made note that there was no trauma beyond her decapitation and cut hand, and that her baby was healthy when she died).

---

"But as Nick and Katrina dug deeper, they found that the facts of Pearl Bryan's death may conflict with the rumors."

Wait so they ACTUALLY did research? Is this going to be a nice post and not me getting angry over dumb satanic rumors???

---

So this nice looking gentleman is said to have done extensive research in to Pearl Bryan's murder and I'm already in love (intellectually, though if I was 40 years older...). They don't show much of what he says but now I'm determined to find a way to contact him to compare notes.

---

So they clearly establish that there is no factual basis for Pearl Bryan's head being thrown down the well! I only used that idea as part of the Dusk comic to give the story a short plot, but in reality it's very, very, VERY unlikely that her head ever entered that building. My personal theory is that Jackson threw it into the Licking River like he did with her luggage.

---

So during the clips of the Ghost Adventures episodes, Bobby Mackey mostly talked about what he's heard happened at the club but he says he doesn't believe in ghosts. Here, he seems to say that he heard rumors of the building being haunted all the way back when he bought the building in 1978. This is the first time I've heard this and I'm intrigued.

---

OH MY GOD THIS WOULD HAVE MADE A GREAT PANEL IN THE COMIC. I NEED TO WATCH SHOWS LIKE THIS TO GET VISUALS

---

Okay, so I did make fun of this guy for blaming ghosts on his divorce, but I have to give him credit that he climbed into the fucking well and looked around inside it. I don't believe its a portal to hell but damn, its unnerving.

---

So this show did much, MUCH better dealing with the facts. Instead of interviewing some asshat author who claims Scott Jackson was a satanist and killed Pearl Bryan as a sacrifice, they met a real historian and asked him about the case. I learned that there were already rumors of the building being haunted before Bobby Mackey took over and that makes me happy.

Nick Groff, I'm going to stop making fun of you for your ghost divorce. You went back and dispelled some of the rumors and I always give people who do that credit.

Recap of the Delphi Tarot Investigation: Insights into the Abby and Libby Case

Recap of the Delphi Tarot Investigation: Insights into the Abby and Libby Case

This is Part 1 of the Delphi Tarot Investigation we did last year. Watch the original tarot reading here.

Last year, on November 28, 2023, after being asked by our lovely friends, we dove into a heart-wrenching and compelling case — the Delphi case involving the tragic murder of Abby and Libby.

If you’re new here, welcome to this space of spiritual insight and investigative energy work!

For those returning, thank you for joining me again on this journey of uncovering hidden truths.

As an intuitive and energy healer, I approached each case with a unique blend of spiritual sensitivity and thorough research.

This case, which has haunted so many, felt deeply personal as I connected with the energies involved.

My goal wasn’t just to interpret but to bring healing light into a space of unresolved pain.

First Steps in the Delphi Case Investigation

The energies surrounding this case were intense, as one might expect.

I started by clearing the space with protection prayers, calling upon Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel, and surrounding myself with divine light.

This protection was essential when working with energies tied to tragedy, as it safeguarded both me and the work we were doing together.

From the very beginning, Abby’s presence felt stronger, as though she were guiding me to uncover truths that might still lie hidden.

In the initial reading, I tapped into several figures involved in the case.

I started with Richard Allen, a name connected to the case, and felt called to dig deeper into his role.

Using my trusted tarot deck, I pulled a few key cards that set the tone for the reading.

The answers were surprising yet clear: Richard Allen showed no significant involvement.

However, as I moved on to other individuals, the energy shifted, and layers of complexity began to unfold.

Energies, Intuitions, and Tarot Truths

Throughout this journey, I utilized different tarot decks, each bringing its own vibe and insight.

For example, the Game of Thrones deck often reveals political and darker undercurrents, while the Rider-Waite brings direct, unfiltered messages.

The cards hinted at hidden alliances and choices made under duress, suggesting that certain people close to the girls might have deeper ties to what happened that day.

This kind of work wasn’t easy; it was intense and emotional and required staying rooted in light.

Investigating Richard Allen: Clearing Names and Revealing Truths

The first name that surfaced was Richard Allen, and it was connected to the case.

With my tarot deck ready, I asked if he had played a direct role in Abby and Libby’s untimely passing.

My cards revealed two strong “No” answers, which gave a sense of relief but also left room to explore other players further.

It became clear that Richard Allen’s role, if any, was not as central as once suspected.

Shane Evans and Small-Town Politics

Next, I moved to Shane Evans, who served as mayor.

I sensed a distinct energy—like small-town politics overshadowing deeper truths.

Using the Game of Thrones tarot deck, I asked if Evans was involved. The cards pointed to themes of power, choices, and deception.

I drew The Star, symbolizing hidden truths coming to light alongside The Devil, indicating a toxic undercurrent.

This reading hinted at a complex web where political motivations might have shaped the town’s response to this tragedy.

Abby and Libby’s Presence

As I channeled their energy, Abby’s spirit felt especially present.

She seemed to urge a need for closure and truth. Using a gentle deck, I connected with Abby, sensing a longing for justice and peace.

It became clear that honoring their memory meant finding justice and healing for all those impacted.

Moving Forward

This journey was only beginning.

Abby and Libby’s story was profound, filled with messages and insights yet to be uncovered.

Together, we held a space of love, respect, and high vibrations as we delved deeper.

The Eureka! Point Mechanic

In case anyone was unaware, this, more than anything else, is why Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy is the best TTRPG for mystery investigation.

Thinking about how Donna said Dick's been on the go since he was 9. And before that, Dick was working in the circus. He's worked as long as he's been able to, and it isn't in him to stop. Sure, he may have breaks or periods of life where he's knocked off course, but in the end, he'll always take up the call.

A little crossover with my AU and the game "Boyfriend to death" 😳

I mean, this feels like pretty standard fair from a celebrity whose having an employee leave?

Like, I'm sure there's a whole lot of celebrities out there who have employees sign NDAs to make sure no one's going to spread their private lives to the tabloids.

I hope all of these people rot in hell.

The Lady of the Lake, a documentary I helped produce, is available on Digital and VOD today via Uncork'd Entertainment.

I was immediately drawn to the fascinating intersection of true crime and the paranormal, while director Ryan Grulich's cinematic approach to the material creates a uniquely immersive experience.

Check out the trailer and press release below.

True crime and the paranormal intertwine in The Lady of the Lake. Journey into the heart of the unknown on Digital and VOD today via Uncork'd Entertainment.

Directed by Ryan Grulich (Georgie, Foolish Mortals) and led by renowned paranormal investigator Amanda D. Paulson, the documentary delves into the haunting legend of Lake Crescent, located in the Pacific Northwest’s enigmatic Port Angeles, WA.

The Lady of the Lake revisits the chilling 1937 murder of Hallie Illingworth, a local waitress whose body, eerily preserved by the lake's frigid waters, resurfaced to reveal a tale wrapped in layers of violence, history, and the supernatural. Paulson's investigation uncovers secrets buried in the depths of Lake Crescent, weaving a narrative that transcends the boundaries of reality.

Through cinematic interviews with local residents, historians, and paranormal experts, The Lady of the Lake meticulously explores the liminal spaces where history and mystery converge.

"This film is a labor of love and fascination," says Grulich. "It’s about more than solving a mystery; it's about understanding the forces that linger in our world, unseen and often unacknowledged. The Lady of the Lake is an invitation to explore the unknown and to question the boundaries of our reality."

With its powerful storytelling and immersive cinematography, The Lady of the Lake resonates with the archetypal legends that have shaped human consciousness, offering a timeless narrative that is both haunting and enlightening.

Bloggers in the Supernatural universe trying to explain how the "Winchesters" that online paranormal investigators the Ghostfacers have some sort of beef with are actually notorious serial killers Sam and Dean Winchester, but all of this is possibly an elaborate roleplay based on the cult appeal "Supernatural" books by Carver Edlund, and also this all ties in to that guy with the trenchcoat who declared himself God and teleported around doing miracles for like a week in 2011, does anyone remember that guy? And speaking of, the fall of Dick Roman and SucroCorp! They're not quite sure yet how that ties in but...

The Case of Jeffrey Dahmer:

Sexual Serial Homicide from a Neuropsychiatric Developmental Perspective

J. Arturo Silva, M.D

Michelle M. Ferrari, M.D

Gregory B. Leong, M.D

)c(

"Sexual serial homicidal behavior has received considerable attention during the last three decades. Substantial progress has been made in the development of methods aimed at identifying and apprehending individuals who exhibit these behaviors. In spite of these advances, the origins of sexual serial killing behavior remain for the most part unknown. In this article we propose a biopsychosocial psychiatric model for un- derstanding the origins of sexual serial homicidal behavior from both neuropsychiatric and developmental perspectives, using the case of convicted serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer as the focal point. We propose that his homicidal behavior was intrinsically associated with autistic spectrum psy- chopathology, specifically Asperger’s disorder. The relationship of Asperger’s disorder to other psychopathology and to his homicidal behavior is explored. We discuss potential implications of the proposed model for the future study of the causes of sexual serial homicidal criminal."

was talking with the other folks in the into darkness campaign yesterday about our characters' reputations in their first lives, if they had them, and i realized that eden may very likely be the subject of an in-universe true crime/unsolved mysteries podcast.
