Meet “The Ghosts of Ohio” founder James Willis at a special event to be held 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 25, in the Learning Resources Center on Southern State Community College’s South Campus, 12681 U.S. Route 62, near Sardinia. The event is free and open to the public.

Founded in 1999, The Ghosts of Ohio is a nationally recognized paranormal-research organization that uses scientific and historic methods to investigate and document reported hauntings in the state of Ohio.

“We are one of the most reputable and prominent not-for-profit organizations in the state and have been in continuous operation since our founding,” said Willis.

Members of The Ghosts of Ohio are volunteers who come from different backgrounds and have varying beliefs in ghosts and the afterlife. They first look for “natural” reasons for reported occurrences before assuming paranormal ones.

“Some of us may be skeptics and some might be believers, but we are all seeking the truth,” said Willis.

From its headquarters in Columbus, The Ghosts of Ohio operates and maintains two fully operational outposts—in Cincinnati and Cleveland—to better meet the needs of their clients. In the years that The Ghosts of Ohio has been in operation, group members have collectively visited more than 100 public haunted locations in the state of Ohio. They have also conducted more than 40 investigations of private homes. In addition, The Ghosts of Ohio maintains a database of all reported haunted sites in Ohio. Currently, the database contains close to 2,000 entries.
