26 October, Wheatfield, NY: Niagara-Wheatfield Town Hall: Haunted?

From Metro WNY: Niagara-Wheatfield Town Hall: Haunted?

Have you ever wondered what goes bump in the night? Locally-renowned ghost hunter Steven Richards did, after a close encounter of some kind at town hall in Niagara, where he works as supervisor.

He had some friends stay overnight to see if anything would happen. At 5 a.m., all the candles blew out simultaneously and they ran away. Since then, Richards joined forces with two other ghost enthusiasts, James Kramp and Diane Tallarico, to form Dark Starr Paranormal Research Society.

“We spend a lot of time exploring odd and creepy places,” Richards said. “The most fascinating thing I have ever experienced was being pulled on while on a ghost hunt and nearly knocked over. Also, there have been a lot of EVPs [electronic voice phenomenon] that we have picked up.”

Richards will be speaking about his experiences at a lecture from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Oct. 26 at Niagara Wheatfield High School. People who attend the workshop will have a chance to sign up for a guided field trip with Richards.

“Our field trips will consist of taking a larger group of people and breaking them into smaller groups, where one of our instructors will take each smaller group on a real ghost hunt to a place where we have already been and know is haunted,” Richards said.

This lecture fills up quickly, so anyone interested should visit www.nwcsd.k12.ny.us and click under Adult Education or call the Adult Education Office at 215-3109.
