TESTIMONIALS:

"I wanted to thank you SO MUCH for an awesome, educating, fun-filled stay at the mansion. We all had such a blast and learned a lot. The experience completely solidified my continuing venture into the paranormal. Please, please stay in touch and keep us informed as to new places and evidence you acquire. I know we do plan on coming for the seminar in September but, that seems way to far away!!! Thanks again, Nick, to you and everyone at Berkshire Paranormal. This experience was life-changing."
-- Phyllis Ardolino



"The students had a BALL on the overnight. They got some 'breathing' on the video from the main bedroom, but were unable to determine a possible cause, and two students saw "shadows" moving around in the third floor servant's quarters before we started recording anything. It really scared one of them, but the other was really interested. We returned twice to the room to videotape (once while we were present, once while no one was present. During the second time, the LCD screen opened on its own during the 30 minutes of taping, but we cannot see anything on the tape yet.
All in all, the kids had a blast, and decided that something is going on, and would like to visit in the future to do an overnight with fewer people, mostly so roaming people can be tracked. Thanks for a great time and all the assistance you have given to make our class a success!"
-- Dave Cassenti (Math and science teacher at The Franklin Academy in Connecticut)



"Thank you so much for hosting my friend and I at the Houghton mansion. We had a great time and were not bored at all! In fact, the paranormal activity in that mansion is unbelievable! Even with all the activity (and there was plenty) Nick and Greg made us feel at home and relaxed the whole time. We not only had a paranormal experience to remember, but we made some great friends too. We are looking forward to returning for another overnight visit. I wonder what will wake us up at 3 am this time? Again, thank you for your hospitality and a wonderful night of ghost hunting!"
-- Your friend, Jamy
