# About me

Bill founded the Greater Maryland Paranormal Society based in Baltimore MD back in the winter of 2006, and the GMPS is a on call paranormal investigation company. Bill grew up in a house in Baltimore MD that had always had paranormal activity. So grewing up with it always being a part of his life. Over the years he had more and more experiences that and started to learn all that he could on it and one day decided that he wanted to help others who are dealing with the same things he did all his life.

"While I do believe places can be haunted, I remain a skeptic at the same time. If very easy for someone to believe a place is haunted and with the success of many of the ghost TV shows, more and more think ghost first. So I take every investigation as a chance to help others by finding a reason for what they are dealing with and in the end find then piece. Haunted or not, I will tell them the truth. I did not get in to this field to become famous or to bull shit anyone."

While he was a Civil War reenactor (2001-2007) in 2003 he started the reenactment unit the 57th North Carolina and reenacted as his GGG-grandfather 1st Sgt Jonas Hartsell and put together a book on the unit that he reenacted under, titled "the Fighting 57th North Carolina: The Life and Letters of James Calvin Zimmerman".

In 2010 he had the wonderful experience of filming a episode of the A&E Show "Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal". along side Chip Coffey. The episode was the first one of season 3 called "Banishing Evil".

For a short time Bill hosted a radio show called "Haunted Whispers with GHB" that aired on WKHB am that only lasted three episodes and then Bill spent several months hosting the same show over on liveparanormal.com but ended it in October of 2014 after some personal problems, but still has hope to one day host the show again somewhere.

In 2015 Bill will be featured in a episode of the show "The RIP Files". that was filmed at the Heritage Society of Essex and Middle River Museum in which Bill is the Paranormal Director.

At the time of this posting he is working on two new books.

"I'm Not Crazy But..." is a book about growing up and dealing with the paranormal and what lead me up to founding the Greater Maryland Paranormal Society along with a few cases that the GMPS team has worked on. I hope to have this finished in the Winter 2015/2016

"Waxton Hall" is taking me alot of time to write because it is my first attempt at writing fiction. Set in the fictional town of Waxton NC, it follows a small town ghost hunting team as they set to find out the mystery of the old plantation house called Waxton Hall and the mystery of the small town in which it sits. What happens when the ghost hunters become the hunted? Sometime in the near future if ever.

On 12/13/14 Bill got married to Trisha Lester at the museum in which he is also the Paranormal Director.

Love your work!! I've always been super interested in the paranormal, too, but due to funding issues common among 16 year olds I've been restricted to amateur EVP's and such.

Nope....but we just collect it as we go. I think when we started we had 1 emf, 2 Temp gages, 2 voice recorders and a camcorder with night vision. And one or two digital cameras. Now I have some much that it takes up the trunk of my car and the back seat.

Yeah, I guess you'd have to buy it gradually to keep up with it. I've tried using my digital cameras to capture things - with limited success. I got one strange thing in one of my photos of an abandoned house, but I can't tell what it is and I always assume the mundane if it's more likely.

Get a good copy of photoshop for photos. Its great how well it can clean up a picture and let you see what something is. In a dark picture there can be some much that can be explained with alittle clean up.

Thanks so much for the advice . It's much appreciated. I believe I saw an A&E show that had you in it at some point? I just put together the GMPS and all that.

It was fun to do and all. But I filmed for 4 days and they used something like 10% of what I did.
