SHAWN BLASCHKA

SHAWNBWPRS@GMAIL.COM


Position: Director / Founder / Webmaster/ Paranormal Author / Administrative Assistant / Public Speaking

Profile: I first became interested in ghosts as a young boy when my dad would tell me stories about his experiences in the old Plumer Mansion

where he worked. I have been studying and investigating the paranormal for 22 years and have had several personal encounters with the "unknown." 

I am co-author of our newest book, Haunted Wausau "The Ghostly History Of Big Bull Falls".  I also have articles in several other books, some of

which are -  Encyclopedia of Haunted Places - by Jeff Belanger,  Famous Wisconsin Ghosts and Ghost Hunters - by Hannah Heidi Levy & Brian Borton,

21st Century Ghosts - by Jason Karl, Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places - by Brad Steiger and Weird Wisconsin - by Linda S. Godfrey &

Richard D. Hendricks. I have also appeared on an episode of Travel Channel's "Dead Files" season #8, episode #5 "The Darkening".

I'm a member of the Marathon County Historical Society and the WPRS is listed as a
T.A.P.S. family member and representative for The State Of Wisconsin.

I have a degree in Criminal Science from Northcentral Technical College and hold a certification in Corrections, Fire Science and Scuba Diving.

I am available to speak to any community groups upon request on ghost investigations and/or local area hauntings. I'm also available to provide private

ghost tours for small or large groups for a small fee.

Position: CO - Director / Senior Investigator

Profile:
Betsy has been interested in the paranormal for a long time, having grown up in a house with residual ghosts (one human, one feline). 

Betsy has also seen a UFO and has had an out-of-body experience.  Her interest in the paranormal led her to take a Downtown Wausau Ghost Tour

on Halloween, and one year later she became a member of the Wausau Paranormal Research Society, helping lead the tours.  Betsy approaches

ghost hunting with a very scientific viewpoint and holds a Bachelor’s degree in forestry and soil science.


BILL BEAUDRY

BILLWPRS@GMAIL.COM

Position: Senior Investigator / Equipment Specialist / Public Speaking

Profile:
My interest in the paranormal began a few years back when I spoke with a few members of WPRS. What really intrigued me about the group

is their professionalism and knowledge about paranormal phenomena. I have an Associate Degree in Police Science. The greatest enjoyment I

receive from being a member of the WPRS is being able to help families or individuals with their problems or concerns they may be experiencing

with the paranormal.

and served as a Security Specialist while stationed in the United Kingdom and United States.  I have an Associate Degree in Police Science and

am a certified Corrections Officer in WI.  I would like to say it's a pleasure for me to be able to rejoin the WPRS as an investigator.

 

HEATHER ABRAMS

HEATHERAWPRS@GMAIL.COM

Position: Investigator

Profile:
For as long as I can remember, perhaps as early as 3 years old, I have regularly encountered strange things or feelings that I could just

not explain. Though these experiences used to terrify me, that fear has grown into a fascination, and has ultimately led me to taking the first

steps in becoming a paranormal investigator. I love to read and learn, and this opportunity will enable me to not only further my knowledge,

but also help those who may be at a loss as to what they are experiencing. Proud mother and wife, and currently working as a CNA. I plan to

pursue a degree in Nursing this coming fall at Fox Valley Technical College.

PATRICK BRAZIER

PATRICKWPRS@GMAIL.COM

Position: Probationary Investigator

Profile: Sedona, Arizona was the catalyst for my exploration into the spiritual world. After winning a trip there a few years ago, multiple

spiritual incidents have occurred since. Unknown to me at the time, Sedona has a rich history in triggering mystical experiences and

spiritual awakenings. Growing up in Wales near a haunted castle and staying in one of the UK's most haunted places also peaked my interest

in the paranormal. It's an exciting opportunity to be part of the WPRS and I'm hoping my degree in media technology, broadcast background

in video editing, graphic design, and animation will be a useful addition to the team.

 

ANDREW SCHEIBE

ANDREWWPRS@GMAIL.COM

Position: Probationary Investigator

Profile: I have been interested in the paranormal since I was a teenager. After having several of my own experiences I wanted to know more

about how or why they happened. I'm here to expand my knowledge and help others to understand what is out there.
