Kor37 9 Posted March 4, 2008 Poltergeist keeping you up at night? Help just a call away in NYCAP Posted: 2008-03-04 06:40:46 NEW YORK (AP) - Something strange going on in your neighborhood? You may want to give Brooklyn Ghost Investigations a call. For $20 an hour, the group of self-proclaimed paranormal investigators offers to go to your house to help chase away whatever goes bump in the night. "When I was 10 years old, I started to see things - spirits and ghosts," said Sal Cicconi, 27, who formed the group with two other Brooklynites. The group, which claims to have honed its spooky craft by watching such TV shows as "Ghost Hunters" and "Paranormal State," has one client: a man who said he saw two apparitions in his apartment. Cicconi and another member of the group, Sergio Ocasio, 20, went to the man's house and waited until 3 a.m. to catch a glimpse of the ghosts. "I caught something on tape," Cicconi said. "It looked like two lights moving around, like the spirits were playing with each other." He said they used a homemade Ouija board - often used in seances to supposedly talk to the dead (or undead) - to coax the bogeymen to leave. But it didn't work. "Sometimes, spirits are afraid to talk or to show themselves to us," Cicconi explained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted March 4, 2008 $20/hr isn't all that much in New York. They are probably just doing it for the novelty because I don't see how they can seriously make much money with this unless it is 24/7 coverage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theunicornhunter 2 Posted March 4, 2008 Maybe it's $20 per person plus expenses? For NYC still not much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
He Who Shall Not Be Named 2 Posted March 4, 2008 I assumed it was $20 + expenses. That would be even more ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
