Cape And Islands Paranormal Research Society is fortunate enough to have
been invited to speak to audiences around the country. CAIPRS

and inform the general public of the paranormal and those who investigate
it. We also attend many conferences as well.

Paranormal Lecture Series
Presents Special Guest Speaker
Troy Taylor
Presenting
Confessions of a Ghost Hunter
Troy Taylor's more than 20 years of research into
the field of ghosts and hauntings has yielded a wide variety of chilling
-- and sometimes hilarious -- encounters with the unknown. In this
spine-tingling presentation, discover how Troy got started with
paranormal investigations; his most frightening experiences; his first
encounter with a ghost; his haunted theater; and much more! This is a
multi-media presentation and audience participation is welcomed.
This is Troy's first appearance in Massachusetts! Come meet him, ask
questions and even have your picture taken with Troy. He will have a
limited number of signed copies of his books available for you to
purchase that night, so come early. If you already own any of his books,
bring them along and have them signed by Troy.
About Troy Taylor
Troy Taylor is the author of
53 books
about history, hauntings and the unexplained in America for Whitechapel
Press and Barnes & Noble Press respectively. He is the founder and
president of the “American Ghost Society”, a national network of ghost
hunters that collects stories of ghost sightings and haunted houses and
uses investigative techniques to track down evidence of the
supernatural.
In 1996, Taylor organized a group of
ghost enthusiasts into an investigation team and the
American Ghost Society
was launched, gained over 600 members in
the years that followed. The organization continues today as one of
America’s largest and most honored research groups.
In 1997, Taylor launched the
Haunted America Conference,
regarded as "America's Original Ghost Conference" in Decatur, Illinois.
After a number of years in Alton, Illinois, the conference has returned
to its original site at the Lincoln Theater in Decatur. The Haunted
America Conference remains the most imitated conference in the country
and is now preparing for its 12th annual event.
In 1998, Taylor moved his operations,
which now included the American Ghost Society, a history and hauntings
bookstore and a publishing company called
Whitechapel Press,
to Alton, Illinois, near St. Louis. In Alton, Taylor started his second
tour company,
Alton
Hauntings,
which took guests to local haunted places in the small Mississippi River
town. He would go on to put the place on the map as “one of the most
haunted small towns in America.”
Taylor remained in Alton until 2005,
when he returned to Decatur. By then, he had also established two more
tour companies, in Springfield,
Illinois and another company
that arranges overnight stays in haunted places called
American Hauntings.
These tours, including those in
Decatur
and Alton, were
organized under the heading of the
Illinois Hauntings Ghost Tours.
Taylor also continued the operation of Whitechapel Press, which
specializes in ghost-related titles and has more than a dozen authors
working under its banner.
In 2006, Taylor also launched the
Weird
Chicago Tours,
which are based on his book,
Weird Illinois,
which was published by Barnes & Noble Press. In 2007, Illinois Hauntings
also launched ghost tours in
Lebanon, Illinois
and in
Jacksonville.
In 2007, Taylor incorporated as
Dark Haven Entertainment, Inc., a parent company for Whitechapel
Press, the Illinois Hauntings Tours and for the Ghosts of the Prairie
Website and Magazine. The new company also handles the film rights to
Troy's ghost books and stories. Currently, there are three of his works
optioned for possible film and television production.
Along with writing about the unusual
and hosting tours, Taylor is also a public speaker on the subject of
ghosts and hauntings and has spoken to literally hundreds of private and
public groups on a variety of paranormal subjects. He has appeared in
newspaper and magazine articles about ghosts and has also been fortunate
enough to be interviewed hundreds of times for radio and television
broadcasts about the supernatural. He has appeared in a number of
documentary films, several television series and in one feature film
about the paranormal. He also the executive producer for the series
Cringe,
which was created by the
iClips Network.
He currently resides in Central
Illinois with his wife, Haven, in a decidedly non-haunted house.
