#008: Ross Allison: Ghost Hunter Extraordinaire

<p><strong>Today’s guest on Starfish &amp; Coffee is Ross Allison.</strong></p> <p>Based in Seattle, Ross is a ghost hunter - one of the best in the world. Aside from his interest in a subject (surely) everybody on the planet has been curious about at some point in their life, he’s also one of the most scientific and takes his quest seriously.</p> <p>For once, we managed to stick closely to the subject in hand. This is a small miracle from beyond the grave in itself, but what you’ll find is exactly what you need in a ghost hunter interview. For all his passion, Ross is well aware of the pitfalls of gathering enough scientific evidence (aka: data) to give 100% proof to what he has witnessed many times first hand.&nbsp;</p> <p>Across this hour we touch on ghosts (natch), shadow people, demons, exorcism, scientific equipment,&nbsp;spirituality vs religion and I also win a £10 bet because I sneaked in mention of <em>Scooby Doo</em>. I should have gone for the £20 option because I also mention <em>Sam &amp; Dean Winchester</em>. You can't win 'em all.</p> <p>In a world that will accept nothing short of an event straight out of <em>The Conjuring</em> as proof of the paranormal, being a serious ghost hunter is a Herculean task of the highest order… listen, see for yourself and make your own mind up.</p> <p>You can find Ross online right here, where his website speaks for itself: <a href="https://www.aghost.org/" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.aghost.org</strong></a></p> <p>•••</p> <p><strong>Extra Notes</strong>: The house I mention part way through - <strong>Plas Teg</strong> - conveniently has its own website here: <a href="https://plasteg.com" target="_blank"><strong>https://plasteg.com</strong></a></p> <p><strong>•••</strong></p> <p>I think that’s everything.
