Hi! I'm Missa, and I am a paranormal investigator....

I am the lead investigator of CCPI- Chemung County Paranormal Investigators. I am also the founder.

I wanted to know if there was any information i could get on the Breesport Infirmary/Asylum?
There is also a cemetery a few yards away that i think belongs to the building. I can't seem to find any real history of either place.
My Team and I are trying to dig up enough information to Investigate the place.
The only information i can find, is the place was once an orphange, then the crazy people, now it is an apartment complex. There was a fire at one point, but i can't seem to find a date on that either!
HELP!!!!

Welcome to ATS -- I think everyone here would love to hear about some of your experiences, if you are able to respond in any detail (I could easily see why you would not be able to disclose, so I'm just asking.)

Paranormal Investigation -- is that a pretty good market? How did you get involved in something like that? What kind of equipment do you use?

These are the kind of questions I would love to hear about, in addition to some real ghost stories!

Let me know how I can help you.

Welcome and blessed be.

Will look forward to your input.

Peace...merry meet...

A good general rule of thumb is that there is usually an historical society, or a genealogical society in any given area that can steer you towards the right research. Also...libraries have local histories. Tap into what others have done. Have fun, and report back

It's an intresting field to say the least. We are non-profit though. Only donations we take.
how did i get involved? I have seen to many things to think that ghosts dont exisist, and I know others like me.
We use digital Cameras, voice recorders, video cameras, EMF dectors (Elctro Magnetic Field) and ofcourse our own instincts.

The ghost stories i could tell you......
I lived in a house that was part of the underground rail-road.
I have also been inside the Infirmary/Asylum, and spend a weekend in there.

How I envy you. I wish I had the free time to do just this. Unfortunatly, I live in Japan, with horrible rules stating my CURFEW, that's right a grown man with a curfew, that makes it hard for any kind of late night investigating.

Well, hopefully when the Corps sends me back to the states, I'll find some time.

I just wish it paid the bills.
Any donations we get, go right into the group for equiptment, and gas, and advertising, etc.

well, you've got the myspace page set to personal so nobody but friends can log into it...whats with that being you've promoted it in 2 posts already


is this Paranormal Investigator a self taught title or are there credentials to be had...
do you need state or local licenses to operate this professional vocation or is your status an advocation (hobby)


hi, mwc

Sorry i forgot that i had it set on private. I will fix that.
It's considered a hobby. I wish there was a real job with credentials like that. Trust me.
On my group myspace page, there are pictures from a few investigations that we did. Intresting pics.
