From the age of 3 until the day he moved out years later, Dave was the center of a haunting in his childhood home in New Jersey. The activity ranged from typical haunting activity to a 3-year period where the activity in the home became demonic. He spent his early years terrified of what was going on in his home but as he got older, he became a voracious reader of anything on the topic of supernatural phenomena in a search for answers for what he was experiencing. With the help of people experienced in this supernatural realm, he eventually understood more about what he was experiencing. He has worked with and learned from some of the top people in the demonology field. His focus is to help anyone who is scared of any paranormal situation and provide hope to those in extreme situations. Dave is also a sensitive and can see, feel and discern spirits.
Dave now resides in Philadelphia, PA with his wife Michelle. His background is in law enforcement and private security. He is a graduate of the Cape May County Police Academy and majored in History and World Religions at Camden County College. He is also the owner of Haunted Explorations Events, an event company that hosts public ghost hunts and paranormal expos.
