Please allow me to introduce myself and the rest of the Chicago Paranormal Detectives team. I am Pete Schleich and in addition to being an investigator, I am also the moderator of this blog. Working with me within this group are Ron Fabiani, Tom Froelich, Austin Edwards and Moriah Rhame. Ron, Tom, Austin and I are all active police officers within the Chicagoland area and work daily within the law enforcement arena. Moriah is our esteemed medium who is a tremendous asset to the investigations we conduct. She allows us to interact and helps guide us to possible locations where stronger paranormal activity may be present. Rounding out our group is Brian Jones and Scot Ziarko who are critical in assisting us and filming our investigations. Both Brian and Scot, while not police officers, offer expertise in the filming of our investigations and provide insight as to the best locations for cameras in order for the evidence we collect to be of the best possible quality.
We began Chicago Paranormal Detectives approximately 2 years ago and have been performing paranormal investigations free of charge since then. While we focus on the capturing of evidence, we also keep in mind that our clients have contacted us out of curiosity and in some cases desperation. We are contacted on a regular basis by people who feel that something is just not right and they need answers. As active police officers, we are trained and skilled in the gathering of evidence and factual events. We do not deal in opinion, nor do we make presumptions or speculations. Facts are all we focus on. While conducting investigations, if we have personal experiences of suspected paranormal activity, they are taken into consideration, however, unless it can be documented in some fashion, it is nothing more than an observation. Once our evidence has been gathered, a detailed analysis of the evidence is conducted. What separates us from other paranormal research groups is that as police officers, we have been trained to question everything and to examine every possible alternative. Before we state as a group that something is paranormal, we exhaust all other possible explanations. We evaluate the location as a whole and look for any other possible reasonable explanation, be it something as simple as a vent being open and blowing on a plant or something more complex such as electrical fluctuations.
From these investigations, any evidence we obtain, is passed along to our clients. We are not here to definitively state whether or not a location is haunted but merely state if we believe there is paranormal activity or not. The ultimate decision as to whether a location is haunted, then lies with the client for whom we are performing the investigation. Should a person require additional assistance with their location, we are able to offer suggestions or advice as to the next steps that should be taken. Aside from the gathering and documenting of paranormal activity, our main purpose is to help our clients. Chicago Paranormal Detectives offer complete confidentiality at our client’s request. We realize there are some people who do not want the world to know what they are experiencing. In other cases though, the investigations we perform are filmed for the television show that we are in the process of creating. No matter what the situation or client request, we conduct ALL of our investigations with the same dedication and persistence for that end result of helping our clients to the best of our abilities.
Please be sure to check back with us here as new postings will be created showing the accounts of our investigations and in some cases, possibly some video clips for your review as well. As we progress and have new experiences, we will be sure to post them here and share them with you. This forum will then become a place for you to share your comments and interact with us as a group. Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you not only enjoy the postings but also come away from reading these posts with some questions. It is these questions that force us to grow and come to the realization that sometimes, there are no answers.

I like the outline of your direction as a group. It's great to know that you need proof, not just some floating dirt. I have been fortunate enough to have seen spirits and commend you on your challenge. Seek and you shall find. Good Luck!

The windy city has its share of business and you've got all your hands full in both professions. Good luck and be safe. I will be looking forward to your show.
ReplyDeleteI'm from Chicago and I find your show interesting because I'm familiar with the area and you have a unique approach being police. How often do you get contacted for Illinois investigations? How much paranormal activity do you come upon? Has it changed you view on policework?
ReplyDeleteBecause of personal experience, I am a believer in the paranormal.I did notice,in the tire shop emf Q&A,The lady with you guys seemed to have her hand(s) in her pocket(s).She also was not waiting for the lights to flash,before she answered non-chalontly,for the entity.Im not saying she faked anything,but I was wondering if a device could be easily hidden on apersontoemitemf.Great Showguys!
ReplyDeleteCould a device be hidden to emit EMF yes, however, this is something that we at CPD would never even consider. We make it a point during every investigation to treat them as actual crime scenes. Our credibility goes beyond the show into our daily lives and this is something that none of us would ever compromise. NO MATTER WHAT!!!
ReplyDeleteI have not seen the show listed lately, Is it still on tv? Regardless, keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI have lost faith in ALL of the other tv shows, that "hunt ghosts". I am already a believer, Its been shown to me. I watch for your show, I check your website. My father was a cop, My father told me paranormal experiences he had,while a cop.I had my own irrefutable experiences. Show me more, Debunking is easy,Keep looking for the truth. Thank you
