What is the Paranormal Network
About us and our journey with the unexplained
Our aim firstly is not to reinvent the entire wheel, but perceive the shape of the vehicle differently. In the past few years a lot has changed in paranormal research and investigation. A lot for better and a lot for the worse, we aren’t here to debate that.
OK, NPN was the brainchild of yours truly in name and in spirit, no pun intended. The initial plan for NPN was “To be a Nottinghamshire Network of Investigators, knowledgeable individuals and groups, interested parties and from varying backgrounds of subjects with the intention of sharing and trading information for the betterment of everyone involved and the subjects we have an interest in.”
We produce articles, features, audio, video, as well as high quality digital magazines – beyond on work in the research and investigation of the unexplained.
Since Nottinghamshire Paranormal Network came to being in 2006 we have been featured, contacted, mentioned and supported by BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio Nottingham, UK SCI FI Channel, Radio Moja (Canada), Century FM, Radio Hucknall, Nottingham Evening Post, Hucknall Dispatch, Mansfield Chad, Nottingham Journal…amongst many others. We have been propositioned for a regular timeslot radio show on one of the UKs premier online broadcasting companies. Joined the worlds number 1 rated and reputed paranormal talk show “White Noise Paranormal Radio” hosted by Jason Day and Kelly McKenzie as a feature contributor and correspondent. Paranormal Networks Kristian Lander joined the Audio Chemistry radio network – premier programme “Panic Room Show” in its initial season reporting on the strange goings on around the world. And have recently become members of ASSAP – Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena.
Your blog is very interesting! I will have to visit it more. Where are you based?
I’m based in Nottingham. And yourself?
I’m in central Texas on a ranch.
Excellent.
Its very easy to imagine the stereotype attached to texas . stetson wearing folk and wild horses and angus cattle.
But whats ut really like?
My husband does wear a Stetson to protect himself from all the sun. I do have a horse that is wild to everyone else, but she is my baby and never wild to me because I feed her little treats. The cattle are not Angus…they are Charolais. So your stereotype is somewhat correct. But….most of the time the men around here were baseball caps with little sunglasses perched on top. My husband wears blue jeans only when we are stepping out. He wears fishing pants in the heat of the summer because they are cooler in this over 100 degree weather around here. I must admit that I have learned how to bale hay and drive a tractor and a bulldozer, but I avoid it if I can. The people here are highly spirited and they mean it when they say “Don’t mess with Texas!” We are similar to the Scottish in our reactionary manor and any of us do carry guns….to defend ourselves from rattlesnakes, cougars and muggers. I visited England and Scotland a few years back. Every time I opened my mouth, people began to bash Texans (I guess they recognized my accent). We took a 2 week tour of Scotland and the tour company wisely paired us up with the Aussies….we are very similar it seems. It is absolutely gorgeous there with all the greenery and forests. I could hardly believe that there are no snakes there or coyotes. We might even be able to raise a lamb crop if we did not have coyotes! We did stay at my cousin’s house close to London for a week and we thoroughly enjoyed the sights…especially Westminster Abby. I believe we drove past a highway sign that said ‘Nottingham’. You live in a beautiful country!
After I finished the above comment, I realized that I forgot to tell you that the description above is really only for us rural folk. We have plenty of “civilized” people in our biggest cities who are not a bit like us. My sister is one of them!
