It is our sincere desire that you will enjoy the contents of this magazine, and find it useful. Everyone that has contributed in some way or another to the magazine, has spent an amazing amount of time to provide useful information to you, the reader. We all did it out of love for the paranormal community! It seems, that science has slowed down on the studies of poltergeists, past lives, ghosts and the whole parapsychology field. Studies of the past never seemed to be published on a large scale, but it does seem that the few studies that were conducted has significantly dropped off. We no longer hear about new researcher’s equivalent to Freud or Jung. It just seems that science has given up on this field or has concluded it is a waste of time. I am not sure why this is, but I do feel that is where we come in. We have to fill this void and continue searching for answers ourselves. I realize we all have many different reasons on why we spend countless hours investigating, reviewing footage, audio and different sources of evidence. No matter what field it may be, Spiritual, Ghosts, Cryptids or just a plain mystery. I do feel we all are seeking answers of some sort in this field. Since, we have this common goal, then I think it is imperative that we all unite together and share our knowledge with each other. I feel that this is how we will bring credibility to this field and find our answers we all seek. So this unification was the main driving force for the creation of this magazine. Not for money or fame, in fact the magazine is totally self-funded. We want to unite all teams from all over the world, no matter what belief or ideologies we may have. We work together, we educate and we train each other. We do this by creating dialogue, listening, and sharing. Before signing off, I again want to thank all the staff and guest writers, for all the hard work they have done for the magazine! I also want to thank them for their passion and hard work in their respective fields they have chosen to be in. Antonio W.
