Haunted America Tours 20 Questions:  CLICK HERE

Greg has had personal paranormal encounters since being a teen and has years of paranormal
investigative experience. He is well versed with haunting classifications, paranormal investigative
techniques and leadership through example. Greg has served as a technician and supervisor while
serving in the military and has further enhanced his education and abilities with legal issues while
serving over ten years in the legal field. With his background of legal issues, lobbying experience and
issue advocation, he hopes to apply these skills to the enactment and strengthening of "haunted
house" and "psychological impact" disclosure laws for prospective property owners, tenets and
lessees. Greg also has an extensive background in genealogical research and familiarization with
record research vital to the research of potential haunted properties.

Greg is one that shares the philosophy that paranormal investigations can come with many unknown
dangers which are not properly addressed by most of the paranormal research field. This and other
important issues are overlooked and need further advocation to current and future researchers and
investigators within this field. Greg adheres to a Humanistic Approach to investigations which always
places the client first above everything else.

Greg became part of MISSOURI PARANORMAL RESEARCH™ in August of 2005 serving as a co-
administrator, lead investigator and EVP specialist. While serving with MPR, Greg became an
instrumental element in the collection and analysis of evidence in a case involving an extreme
"inhuman" haunting and possession. This Haunting was featured on the Discovery Channel's "A
Haunting" series as the Season 3 opener.  In October of 2006, Greg co-founded PARANORMAL TASK
FORCE
, a not for profit organization which promotes the awareness of paranormal research and  
historical preservation through a variety of methods.  MISSOURI PARANORMAL RESEARCH™ now
serves as its non-extreme investigative and research division while other divisions will be launched
making Paranormal Task Force™, Inc. a "One Stop" resource for all paranormal needs of clients, the
public and other organizations.

Greg has been a featured guest on various radio stations and in other media formats abroad, speaker
at paranormal events and completed filming in 2007 with Keith Age and The Booth Brothers for
"Children of the Grave" which was released October 2, 2007 on DVD and aired on the SciFi (now SyFy)
Network in 2008.  Greg has also recently finished filming and served as an associate producer for
another Booth Brothers (Spooked Television Releasing) production titled "The Haunted Boy" which will  
be released on DVD in 2010 and air on the SyFy Network soon after.  Greg is also featured in "Legacy of
Shadows ... The Legend of Zombie Road" which will be released on DVD New Years Day 2010.

Greg has also authored articles and short stories concerning his experiences within the paranormal
realms and theories related to such which are published on the World Wide Web. Some of these
articles and stories have been selected for inclusion in “Weird Missouri” which was published in 2009
and “Weird Encounters” which will be published in 2010.

Greg is also a Missouri Statewide Representative for the American Ghost Society (AGS) and was also
voted as one of the top 10 Investigators in America for 2008-09 on Haunted America Tours (

Sandy Oates - Director - Case Management Coordinator
                              Lead Investigator - Treasurer - Secretary

Email: sandy@paranormaltaskforce.com
Haunted America Tours 20 Questions:  CLICK HERE

Sandy has had experiences with paranormal happenings including trips to Scotland which have
furthered her exposure to both paranormal happenings and a paranormal enriched culture which have
peaked her interest to learn more about the unknown realms.

Sandy is a small business owner with 18 years experience in social service and law enforcement.  She
also holds a Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice/minor in Sociology.  She enjoys investigating the
paranormal as well as research that comes with it and always looks forward to further developing her
skills in all areas with PTF to further add to the professionalism PTF brings to the clients we serve.
Sandy joined  MISSOURI PARANORMAL RESEARCH
and Co-Founded  PARANORMAL TASK FORCE
in 2006 then became a  Director in 2007.  Sandy has also become the heartbeat of PTF and shows her
diversity as she currently serves as the Case Management Coordinator overseeing the entire case
management and research operations of the organization along with many other vital administrative
duties such as Secretary and Treasurer as well.

Sandy served as a valuable research assistant for the 2007  Booth Brothers film "Children of the
Grave" which was released October 2, 2007 on DVD and aired on the SciFi (now SyFy) Network in
2008.   She also filmed and served as an co-associate produce, research assistant and location

Colby Davis - Lead Investigator

Email: colby@paranormaltaskforce.com

We are proud to announce that Colby is comes to PTF with a wealth of experience that will benefit our
clients and the paranormal community alike.  With a wealth of investigative and research experience  
he is a well welcomed addition.


Colby did not grow up in a haunted house and had no experiences that  brought him into the
paranormal field.  After listening to a lecture at a local community college he began to read and
research all he could about the paranormal.  Like many investigators his quest  for answers is what
got him started in the paranormal. He began his investigating career with a small group in Western
Illinois and in 2007 founded Illinois Paranormal Exploration located in Champaign County, Illinois where
he served as the Eastern Illinois Representative for the American Ghost Society.  Colby considers one
of his strengths to be teaching investigators with little or no experience or those looking just to learn
more about the paranormal field.

Colby’s infatuation with EVP’s came as a result of him being the producer of the paranormal talk show
“Tuesday After Twilight” with the late Chad Austin and Dianna Avena. Chad was a self-proclaimed EVP
junkie, an “audio master”, and Colby’s mentor and teacher  in all aspects of EVP research.  He feels
that through EVP capture the answers to many questions involved in a specific case or the paranormal
in general can be answered.  He also feels that the investigator is the most important piece of
equipment on any investigation.  With all of the technology available to investigators, Colby feels that at
times we focus too much on the high tech gadgets  and not enough on the environment around us.

hauntings.  Jeremiah is a devout Catholic who feels called to this research.  He grew up on and around
the infamous Zombie Road, and in a town with a lot of paranormal activity in it's own right.  He has a
degree in Applied Science Broadcast Communication, and experience as an audio engineer. He has

what you are dealing with, then work with the client to determine an appropriate course of action.

is "evil." He uses his Faith and science to lead him to the answer that achieves the result the client is
after.

Margaret Shelton - Investigator

Email: margaret@paranormaltaskforce.com

Maggie (Margaret) comes to PTF with a wealth of paranormal experiences.  Living in Thailand during
her formative years taught her to sense and see into the spiritual world.  She also has been lucky
enough to have a family that allowed her to nurture her abilities.  Maggie is one of PTF’s Empathic
Sensitives.  Maggie feels that most people have the ability to empathize in a specific situational setting
(such as the death of a loved one or the joy of a new baby). However, she uses her ability to "tune in" on
feeling the emotional status of the living and the departed. Her abilities give her an enormous power to
experience the emotions that others seek to hide.  Maggie is the first one to tell you that she “may not
be getting it right” but will stick to the task at hand to make sure that our clients are safe and have the
answers that they have come to us for.  Even though she has these abilities, she is always looking for
the “reason” something happened.  Sometimes, there is a physical reason it happened.  She is just as
satisfied with that answer as she is with a paranormal answer.  

Maggie resides in Jefferson County, is married, and has two children.  She works in the Educational
field and her field choice is Special Education.  She has many hobbies.  She loves to spend time with
her friends, working in her yard, doing crafts, reading, cooking, traveling, and entertaining.
