coming to you on the x ON Broadcast Network and

She is in Salem, Virginia and her website is ghost
(01:32):
Hunters of Virginia ASI dot com. And Chauncey, welcome to the.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
Xon Oh, thank you, happy to be here.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
So tell us a little bit. What was it that
happened in your life that made you want to become
a paranormal investigator and writer?
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Well, it was ever my plan, Okay, my first memories.
I've always liked seen ghosts and seen things. Okay, so
they're far back as I can remember, and growing up
in the seventies, not a law, TV shows, the internet
(02:11):
didn't exist, the library books were useless, so it was
something I had to adapt to. On me. I have
a twin sister, so both of us had to adapt
to it. And that is the reason I got more
into the paranormal as I got older, because I thought
(02:32):
if I got older and turned eighteen, people would take
me seriously as an adult and believe me. And that
wasn't the case.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
What kind of experiences of the paranormal nature did you
and your sisters have as young ladies growing up?
Speaker 5 (02:51):
A lost in it's you're moving, okay, our bedroom furniture,
the bed we shared the bed with full sized bed
be on the other on the opposite side of the room,
and the dresser would be where the bed used to be.
And we're like five and six years old, so there's
no way we're doing this kind of thing. I still missed. Okay,
(03:15):
you've all seen moviems through out there, Ghostbusters and as
a child, I didn't understand the term, so we call
them giant spiderwebs. It was just the closest thing that
we can think of in our small minds and so
we experienced a lot in that. What really helped us
(03:38):
was my mom. I'll give her some credit because she
must have seen something while we were growing up or
experienced something. But she had always told me, she goes,
ghosts can't touch things, so if they can't touch you,
they can't hurt you. And that worked for several of
(03:59):
you until I found out that wasn't the truth.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
So have ghosts actually touched you and hurt you?
Speaker 5 (04:09):
Yes, okay, they do the lat pushing, throw things at you,
weird stuff like that. And then you would see them
because for us they were different. They were what we
called the shadows, all right, and you only saw them
(04:30):
like on the wall, and it just was a shadow
of a person, and we said they lived within the walls. Okay,
and then you have what we called really like a
fog person because at the time all we can think
of where was transluent and you can see through them
and just bits of them, and they just looked like
(04:52):
a fog, but you can see it as a person.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Okay. Now, these shadow people, did they only come out
at night or did they come out during the day
as well.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
No, they liked to come out at night. I don't
remember because it was really a long time ago. But
they used to whisper things, and it wasn't good, you know.
And they used to whisper I would assume with bad
things because we didn't like what they said. So as
soon as our head hit the pillow, they would come
out and start whispering toward us. The transparent ones never
(05:25):
said anything, but it was strange. I can't remember, I'm
just a little kid. And then my bathroom, we had
a medicine cabinet and the toothpaste was kept in it,
so I had to open it up to get the
toothpaste out. Well, they couldn't have all been bad, because
(05:47):
they would be in that mirror of shadow people okay, oh,
and they would screaming on the top of their lungs,
and it wasn't like they were going to help. They
were going long, drawing out, and so I was afraid
of I opened up the medicine cabinet they would come out.
(06:09):
I was very young when we first start experiencing, sure,
and that was so much of it.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Did your mother ever happen to hear the shadow people
yelling for help?
Speaker 5 (06:19):
No? No, not that she would ever admit to us.
I mean, both my mother and father were really truly
they made up expusis that it was something we did
even though there was no way we could have done
it moving furniture. My mother collected music boxes and she
(06:40):
had about twenty of them in a case with doors
hanging up on the wall, and my sister and I
couldn't even reach it too, and you can never touch
her music boxes. And one Saturday morning, we were all
sitting there watching cartoons, my mom and dad sitting there,
me and my sister watching cartoons, and all of a sudden,
(07:00):
all at once, all those music boxes just started playing.
And when you listen to that many music boxes going
off at once, it was really dark and scary sounding.
It didn't sound pretty like one would do. And so
my dad starts yelling at us, saying that we shouldn't
(07:22):
have messed with her music boxes, and we're just dumbfounded, going, well,
don't they wind up? You know? How could they all
go out the same time In the middle of him
yelling at us, they all stopped that much.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
So, so what did your dad do with that?
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Don't play with the music boxes? That was end of it.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Now, did your mom have any interest in the paranormal?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Not that I wasn't aware of. I think a lot
of it that, you know, she was on our disfense
a couple of times, and for her to talk to
me about saying that ghosts can't hurt me. Years later,
my mom died, you know, a long time ago, but
years later I knew she must have known something to
(08:13):
give me that kind of advice, you know, And so
I know that she saw something, she experienced something, but
was on my dad's side the entire time.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Now you're in Salem, Virginia, and that's a pretty spooky,
scary place, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
You got that right? I had no idea. Okay, it's
like night and days sometimes where I'm from California and
here because California we had a few old ghost towns,
but in reality, the United States didn't start in California,
started the East. So they're the history of being in
(08:58):
East and you're going you're going back to you know,
ten hundreds And it was a lot more ghosts than
I was used to seeing in the one area at
a time. How did you there's definitely more ghosts.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
How did your friends at school? Did you talk to
your friends at school and what did they say?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
Yes, I did, but they were as dumbfounded as we were.
You know, No, but it could explain it and what
you lived with it for years as we were getting older.
You know, this was just like I said, because we
moved in a house when I was like five, right, okay,
and right before five, when I turned five, it's when
(09:43):
I could see stuff. And finally I actually talk and
tried to explain what I was seeing, okay. And then
when we moved into that house. I've never seen somebody
goos in one house, and I didn't know why there
were somebody there. I've just seen ghosts in palms, but
not like this. And my sister and I were not
(10:06):
afraid because we weren't. I wasn't afraid about any boogieman
in the closet or or anything like that. But that
one experience, and it just it changed everything, you know,
and it's just changed. It changed my world. It made
(10:27):
me really look at twelve years old, what I was
dealing with, because I realized I was on my own.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Why do you think you and your sister were targeted
by these unseen entities if nobody else in the house
had any inkling that they were there?
Speaker 5 (10:44):
Exactly? Well, I do know that many years later, the
experience treating my grandmother out so much that she ended
up researching the house. Okay. And the house was built
in End in nineteen twenties, and she said, at the time,
(11:05):
the man who built the house, things were very expensive.
People were poor. A mausoleum have burnt down, okay. So
what he did was there was pieces of the wood
of that mausoleum leftover, stay they sold them. What was leftover.
He hauled it and used all those materials building that house.
(11:27):
And to this day, these people that lived there are
having exact same experiences that I had.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
So once you moved away from that home, all the
paranormal activity stopped in your life.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
No, it wasn't a a like. We just moved out.
My sister and I, like I said, we were used
to go, so we were. You just used to them,
so you're not afraid anymore. And so one night we
slept in same bed and Mercheve years old, and she
(12:02):
woke me up. She's something grander and was palling her
underneath the bed and it's pitch dark, right, And I laughed, No,
you didn't. You fell out of bed. So I get
my arms around her. Unneath her arms. We went to
pull her up.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Okay, listen to Galen. Galen, We're going to have to
have a bit of a cliffhanger here because I have
to go to commercial break, So please stand bywhere Okay,
please explanation nine. Galen Chauncey is our special guest and
she is in Salem, Virginia. Her website is ghost Hunters
of Virginia S S I. I'm sorry A A S I.
(12:48):
So that's ghost Unters of Virginia A s I. This
is the Xcelle. I'm Rob McConnell, and we'll be back
with Galen on the other side as we continue talking
about ghosts, things that go bump and the bully land.
Whatever you do, don't go away, and we'll be right back.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Stockholm got this feeling down deep in the soul that
I just can't use. I guess I'm more.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
I was waiting for soul for Americo.
Speaker 7 (13:57):
Everyone told me to be strong through the dunness and
a new nay.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Kid, welcome back if you won. Galen Chauncey as our
special guest as she is in Salem, Virginia, and Chauncey.
Before we went to the break, we were talking about
the night that you and your sister were in bed,
and your sister is out of the bed, saying that
somebody pulled her off the bed, and you had gone
(14:36):
and put your arms around your sister in bed. It
was dark what happened.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
So I go to pull her back onto the bed
and I both of them gone around her chest and everything,
you know, just try to pull her up a little bit.
She didn't move, not one inch. So the next thought
that went through my mind was flight, She's stuck on something. Okay, Well,
(15:02):
that was the last thing I was thinking of, because
next thing I know, she was jerked so hard that
she was pulled off the bed, and because I had
a hold of her one of her arms, it pulled
me off the bed too. Okay, So whatever it was
was so strong that it pulled her and me both
(15:23):
off the bed, and I'm holding onto her and it's
pulling her underneath there, and luckily I put my feet
up and put it on the frame of the bed.
It was the only way to get some kind of
leverage hold of her, you know, to stop her from
being pulled further. I can see nothing but blackness. I
(15:44):
realized that I have to put my head down so
I can see what's underneath there. And it's a cross
face basement, so there's nothing underneath there. And when I looked,
I see this light and it's a bluish white light okay.
And it probably was maybe a foot in diameter. It
(16:07):
was like a circle, and it was coming up through
the floor and hitting the bottom of the box springs okay, okay,
And it wasn't like it didn't hardly put out any
light at all. Even though itself was very white and blue,
it didn't put out much light. And I remember looking
(16:29):
at the bottom and wondering how this light is coming
through the floor, okay. And then when I look curfully
carefully because we have wooden floor, I noticed around the
edge of the light that the floor was ripping like
soft waves on the lake. Okay. And my brain is
(16:52):
still calculating, and I'm saying to myself that just can't
be real, that no way is what's happening happening. So
there's no reaction on to me. It choke her. I'm
just I can't believe what is happening. So my sister
looks at me, and it's a tug of war, and
(17:12):
I know I can't hold on to her much longer
because whatever it is is stronger than me. And I
realized I just going to win this tug of war.
And my sister looked at me, and I'll just never
forget the fear in her face. She was so scared,
and she said, please don't let go of me. And
(17:37):
I made that decision right then and there, and that
my feet are going, and if it takes her, I'm
going with her. Her legs are in this light as
what it is, okay, So she's been pulled into this light.
And then all of a sudden, I hear this female
say scream and looked up and it was one of
(18:02):
the missed ladies of the house. Now I've heard the
shadows whispering that night, but never ever, in all these
years that won, those missed people ever talked to us,
never ever heard anything. So I was like looking at her,
and to be a quite honest, the next word down
my mouth was you can talk. Because I was so
(18:24):
shocked that she sent that to me. She bends down
and whispers in my ear. If you do not scream now,
you both will be gone forever. I knew what death was, okay,
and so it was the way she said it. It
was so bad, and I knew right then and there
(18:47):
that I needed to scream for help. I didn't realize
that we were in such danger, so I screaming my
bloody head off, and of course they come running in
the room. What impressed me was in my I opened
the door, it was still pulling on Ricky. It didn't
let her go until that light came on. Okay, and
(19:07):
we were shoes to spending night in the room. It's
just we weren't having it. So the next morning, and
this is the way some parents were said there was
nothing in there to scare us, and we both were
eminent when we said that we are not going back
in that bedroom. I don't care how many ghosts are
(19:29):
right here, but you're not getting me back in that room.
There's something else in there. And I was arguing with
my mom because I can't tell them. Oh thanks mom,
But just couldn't have been a coast because it grabbed
Ricky and physically pulled her under the meath the bed,
taking me with her. So I said, if it was physical,
then it actually touched her. And I don't know where
(19:51):
this light was, had no idea what it was and
why she was being pulled into it. And so the
next day my dad thought, great, I did to lock
us up in our bedroom to prove that I stumped.
There was nothing to be scared of. And this is
broad daylight, housing one of those old skeleton keys, because
(20:14):
the house was pretty old, and he was able to
lock it well. It only had a bay window in
the bedroom and the window didn't open. So I'm pounding
on the door with my sister, begging to be let out,
and we're crying. And then I had my eyes closed,
(20:34):
and next time I knew, I fell forward, and when
I fell forward, I skinned up my knees in my hands,
and I didn't know what was going on. I opened
up my eyes and we were on the street in
front of our house. I had been putting so much
pressure on that door that when it was gone, I
just came down hard and we started screaming. And my
(20:58):
dad had even finished walking down the hallway to sit
in the liver room. Why we're out there freaking out,
going how did you get outside? How did you get outside?
And we're saying we don't know, we don't know, and
the door's locked and the window can't be open. There's
(21:19):
no secret doorways, and you're talking seconds, not even a minute,
act gone by. Well, I don't know what my mom
said and my dad, but that we never went back
to that house. The whole family did. Stayed with my
grandparents until him about a month until they could find
a new place.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
Why was your why did you why did your dad
lock you and your sister in that room? If you know, if, if,
if you told him what had happened, and he must
have obviously known you were afraid.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Yeah, oh yeah, but he thought we were afraid of nothing.
He just didn't believe in that stuff at all. Okay,
And so well, you know when you have a parent,
especially when as a young child, it was harder, but
it became easier as we grew older to articulate what
we were saying, you know. So I'm sure as a
(22:14):
small child a lot of it just didn't make sense,
the words because I had zero experience, and you know,
I'm so young. So it was my sister. But my sister,
you cannot mention the word paranormal. You cannot drive by
that house she without her breaking down. That fear is
(22:34):
so instant with her. I've gone to the back but
That's when I learned that the only person that was
going to be looking out for the two of us
would have to be me, because my sister fell apart.
You know, I wasn't the one that was grabbed, you
know what I mean. I think her fear level was
a whole lot higher than my life. And you know,
(22:58):
but that they sure did move out, So I don't
know what my mom said about when they finally went
to and two weeks before and realized that something was
going on. But I don't know what this thing was.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
Now, when you moved away from that house, did the
paranormal activity follow you or did it?
Speaker 5 (23:18):
It's everywhere And I will tell everybody if they knew
how many ghosts around the earth, they would freak. Okay.
When I was thirteen years old, my mom and dad
family and we all went to Hawaii. Okay, well, they
(23:39):
were being the parents they were, and they left me
alone on the beach. Why they took a little walk
somewhere with my sister, a nonsent in the ocean, and
I realized I got caught out on the tide sun Sine.
My mistake was my back and I tried as I might,
(24:00):
I could not swim back to shore. I'm just going
further and further out.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
Really bad.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Yeah, I was an excellent swimmer. They were just not thinking,
thinking I can't care of myself and I could float
on my back very well, so I thought, well, i'll
float on my back and I'm going to drown. And
I just felt it was not too painful. That was
cool as a cucumber. And all of a sudden, I
heard this man's voice and it says me, need you
(24:30):
swim at an angle? And that's when I sat back
up and I saw this guy wearing a uniform. It
was some type of military uniform, and he was wearing
a hat and I couldn't understand how the hat was
standing on his head because of the weights. I end
up knocking me all over the place, and I said,
what do you mean? And he used his hand and
(24:53):
put it at an angle and its swim at an angle.
And then when I went to stop, he just told me,
don't stop, keep going, keep going, encouraging me every stuff
of the way. And I made it to sure. So
I realized, after what happened at that house, and there
was this ghost here one wait a minute, not all
(25:14):
of them can be scary that they are ones that
really do care about, you know, wanting to help you,
and so I asked you know, that helped me a
lot to make me realize that, you know, there were
good ghosts out there and maybe people are helped and
they just don't know it.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Did you ever find out who that ghost was? He
who saved you in uniform?
Speaker 5 (25:40):
No? No, I just knew he was in some type
of military uniform. Never did fun because he's I just
hope he's still not there. I can never help him.
But my way of helping him is to help other ghosts,
because when I help somebody that is dealing with something
in their home, it's not just about helping the clients,
(26:02):
it's about helping that ghost.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Stand by, we've got to take our next break. We'll
be right back at x O Nation. Our guest this
hour is Galen Chauncey. She's in Salem, Virginia, and if
you'd like to find out more about Chauncey, I'm going

ghost Hunters of Virginia ASI and we'll be back on
(26:27):

Speaker 6 (26:38):
I'm Rob McConnell. Don't go away, I was waiting for.
Speaker 8 (27:08):
It's not my way love you just when no one's looking.
It's not my way to take your hand. If I'm
not sure, it's not my way. Let you see what's
going on inside of me. When it's love. You won't
(27:28):
be needing.
Speaker 9 (27:29):
You're not free. Please stop pulling at my sleeve if
you're just playing, if.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
You won't take the things you make me want again.
I never occurred too much for games, and this one's
driving me insane. Y'are and I have free to wander
a claim, but I'm easy.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Yeah, and welcome back everyone. Galen Chauncy's are a special guest.
And Galen, do you when you're your sister or do
you do any paranormal investigations?
Speaker 9 (28:08):
Now?
Speaker 5 (28:10):
Yes, I still do, Oh yes, I do private one
for course, for any client or any customer. I should
say I still go to very public places like Waverley
Hills in Kentucky, Jahna, Santorium, even prisons that are haunted
(28:32):
the reason why I do this. It keeps my skills
up and I'm always doing that.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Now what what skills are you talking about keeping your
skills up?
Speaker 5 (28:43):
Well? What iSER is seeing? I need to be able
to see. I'm very cautious about trying to let something
get too near me. Okay, what I do if I
can't see them, I feel for them. Now, this is
not sensing something. This is actually feeling for it. And
(29:04):
for it to work, I actually have to be in
the same room with them. I can't be in a
room downstairs and fill it upstairs. You've got to be
the least six feet close to me and I use
my hands and to me. You know, when you can
go to the ocean, you put your hand in the water,
you can fill the under you know, water waves. You
(29:26):
can't see them, but you can feel it. That's what
it feels like to me is this air is very,
very cold, and it feels like my hand's being hit
by little ripples of air.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
You said that you went to Waverley. What did you
find there?
Speaker 5 (29:43):
A lot of ghosts? Okay? Quite. I went there because
I went there with an actually, oh tape deck. Okay,
because back in the ghost Honting days before we had
before digital came out, and so a friend of mine
wanted me to go up there and check it out
(30:05):
with a digital recorder. So I went up there and
so he gave him what he wanted. Here was these
EVP files, and I went with a group about ten
of us, and he said, where's the little girl coming from?
I said, I know, she's actually on the first floor
(30:26):
and she says, wait for me, laughing and skipping. Then
you can hear miss walking upstairs and she goes, don't
leave me behind. There are no old children there and
they're not allowed on private investigations, and so that really
freaked them out to hear the children. But he kept
(30:46):
saying that there were all these voices saying come on,
and I said, yes, I heard so many of them.
I was getting tired of it, you know, because I
get mob was listening to it. I could hear it.
So he came to one day and he says, I
need to realize something that I used a voice analyzer
(31:09):
to check for different voice patterns, and he said, I
identify yours and six others and they're all saying come on.
And in the system has telling me these are all
different voice patterns, which meant that you had to be
surrounded by ghosts and I want, yeah, long ghosts there,
so of course, but he was freaked out and I
(31:31):
just was very calm about it because you know, it
does take a lot to taint me down. But to
be all honesty, they can. I might stand up against
the girl in the one fight on my own, maybe
two girls, but the more they are, the harder it
is for me to defend myself. So sometimes I have
(31:54):
to be careful. But my ability is if I read
that they're anything wrong, anything, And my whole team knows
that if I say run you either baby be in
front of me running or right behind me running, because
I'm not gonna wait for you. You know, I'm not
willing to put myself in that kind of danger. And
(32:16):
I know what that feels like, Sony, any doubts whatsoever,
I am out of there.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Where's this? Where is the most haunted place that you
and your team has ever gone to?
Speaker 5 (32:30):
I would say it's going to be a couple of
places there. Well, I would have to say that here
in Radford we've got Saint Albans and it used to
be a asylum fundamentally disabled, and there's is intense, okay, unfortunately,
(32:57):
and there were a lot of spirits there that want help.
I'm just not allowed to do that. They own the place, okay,
but I kill a couple of them. You might. You know,
you thought this person was crazy when they were alive,
Well think about how much more crazy they are now
that they are dead. And it's the shame because there
(33:18):
was something wrong with the brain to begin with, you
know what I mean. And so I've seen it where
it can take somebody like that and energy just warps
them into something that you can't even recognize anymore. I
would say that Top one and then Waverley Hills would
be right there with it, you know, just the intensity
(33:41):
and why there would be so many spirits in one location.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Why do you think that these spirits remain? Do they
enjoy the tourism that that they're being subjected to.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
Well a lot of them, believe it or not. I
found that Bravely Hills reminding me of a train station,
because I was quite honest when I said to have
the ghosts don't even know what kind of hospital this is.
So if they're wondering what kind of place this is,
then they've never been here before yet they're here. You know,
(34:16):
I said, that doesn't make sense. You know, there are
places that and this is many years of research that
I think lay lines energy lines criss crossing the earth,
you know. I think that somehow in certain places where
these lay lines cross a lot, there's a lot of
(34:36):
energy build up, okay, and it attracts the spirits. And
the reason why is they think it's I hate to say,
but they think it's a light. And I don't know
why they're confused. Okay, the children, I understand, I get that.
(34:59):
But I always tell these girls when I talk about
because I'm not the jury, nor in my the judge,
you know, their job is. I said, you've already been forgiven.
What's the balance forgiving yourself for being the kind of
person that you were? You know? And once you because
you can't go to heaven with baggage, you know, or
(35:21):
whatever you believe in. You can't have that kind of
emotional baggage. You gotta let go, you know. And I
think a lot of people it could be something small
that they just won't let go, and the further time
that goes on, they get lost in history, you know.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
And tell me about your team.
Speaker 5 (35:46):
A good bunch of people. You know, I let people
around me that are diversity. Okay, so it's just great.
You know, got somebody who's more of an occultist, but
it's her, but choosing that area that I'm looking forward to,
I you know, she says that, she says, this goes,
(36:07):
I'm glad you like me because I am a little
weird and it's like, weul that's why I like you. You know,
it's because you are weird and you're a good person.
And I try to teach them. It's all about teaching,
constant teaching, because you know, maybe one day they may
do it on their own, start their own club. But
it's knowledge that can be passed down, which is why
(36:30):
we go to a lat and abandoned homes. I find them,
mark them, say, okay, team, we're going to shut out
an abandoned home because that is so much more fun
than any tour anywhere you don't know what's around the corner,
you don't know what's going to happen, and because of that,
we've accidentally run into things that you know, we weren't
(36:53):
even looking forward. You know, it's the opposite. But it's
great training. And I saw like them out the moveles.
You know, they respect me and it's all about us
trying to be at the same level. Yeah, and I'm like,
I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but
this is the best way to do this, you know.
(37:13):
And then now to even holding cameras.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
Now, no, now, when you find these homes. When you
find these homes, do you get permission to go into them?
Speaker 5 (37:24):
First of all, we wouldn't even know who I would it,
you know, you would have to look it up. No way.
Most of the time these are abandoned and there's no
houses anywhere around. They're just in the woods, and so
there's like nobody to ask.
Speaker 4 (37:39):
But what would happen? What would happen? What would happen
if you or some other member of your team was
hurt in one of these abandoned houses.
Speaker 6 (37:50):
What would happen?
Speaker 5 (37:50):
Well, this is my rule is I go in first.
Nobody is allowed, and nobody is and they know it,
and if I catch them doing it, they know they're
in trouble. Okay, So I make sure that it's safe
first of all, make sure that I don't feel really
bad energy because I don't ever want them to bring
(38:12):
him to a place that has bad energy, and I've
encountered a cup of them where I let them take
pictures outside the house and through the windows. But even
though it's totally abandoned, we are not going in there.
This has, you know, go away written all over. I
can feel it. Takes a few pictures and let's go,
(38:33):
and then I won't let them enter the house. It's
my job is to protect my team.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
Has there ever been a time when you've gone into
a home or some location and you've been confronted by
the police are trespassing?
Speaker 9 (38:50):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (38:50):
Yes, once or twice, okay, And I'm sweart. That's how
it goes down every time. It's easy to cops to
come and check. Okay, So I'm always just but you know,
all of sudden, I'm the spokesperson whenever this happens. And
you got the one guy who's flat job and can't
believe what I'm telling him. And then you've got the
(39:11):
other cops laughing their ass off when they realize that's
what we're doing there, you know. So they were like, well, okay,
you really shouldn't be here, so we'll leave, and no problem.
But that's only happened maybe.
Speaker 4 (39:26):

Speaker 9 (40:23):

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Fine when let's go down.
Speaker 7 (41:07):
I'm holding you some time, got you.
Speaker 2 (41:13):
That it's characterized to the.
Speaker 10 (41:16):
Mode I see us saw on the show The Bride.
Speaker 4 (41:24):
Sunshine Gaylan Chauncy is are our guest this hour and Galen,
thanks very much for joining us.
Speaker 5 (41:31):
And oh my pleasure.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
Yeah, what kind of equipment do you and your team
use when you go out to do these investigations.
Speaker 5 (41:40):
I tell everybody that you just need a camera. I'm
not talking about your iPhone, And I'll put a little
bit of money to a decent camera, okay, with lens
that can do long shots. And if you have a
video camera that's great, and a voice recorder. That's all
you need. And I remind everybody that you've got two hands, okay,
(42:06):
so you got to do with what you're holding with.
So that's why you need a team. I need somebody
holding the camera. I need somebody holding the voice for recorder,
you know, and somebody holding the camera as you walk
around and peek around and make everything is okay before
you let them go on any further. So you don't
(42:27):
need all this fancy equipment you see on TV's great
to have these choys, but it's not neat if they
want to talk to you, because you're not catching their
voices by accident. They will only talk to you if
they want to, Okay. It's the same with pictures and video.
You might luckily one out a minute might be a accident, okay,
(42:52):
but most of the time if you just and what's
wonderful about the digital age? Listen, I had to do
thirty five millimeters and you know how expensive it was
to get a roll of film developed and get the
whole set and you pay for it, and it cost
me thirty bucks and there being not one place I
could use Yeah, okay, so now I can just erase
(43:15):
and then print out only what I watched.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
Big difference speaking about technology, What do you think or
what is your opinion of.
Speaker 5 (43:24):
Orbs or well they exist, because my sister and I
saw them everywhere inside the house. Okay, so they zoom
by very quickly, use you different colors, and they were
all light colors. But I moved in Las Vegas few
years back, and I've visiting family and I'm staying at
(43:51):
the luxury hotel. So I was went from my car
to come around so I can leave, and I heard
something and it sounded electrical. It was very loud. This
place is rocking, Okay, people are being let out in
taxis and cars. It's just, you know, rocking. And I
look up and I see this ORB and it was
(44:15):
about the size of the BW Okay, now I see
it come down part of the hotel and went across
where the parking lot was, and I'm sitting traveling down.
I'm not watching this, and this is what I noticed.
That nobody looked up, but it was above their heads,
(44:37):
a couple of feet above their heads. And I watched
these people come out taxis with their luggage, so I
knew they were just checking in. They not once looked
up at it, not at the noise, not at the
orb And of all the pictures I got, I got
it on the last picture. So the people say plassroom balls,
(44:58):
but I said, yeah, but nobody I thought. And I
was with my aunt and I was trying to point
it out to her and she saw nothing. You know,
I can sit clear as day.
Speaker 4 (45:09):
Why do you think that you had this ability and
others don't.
Speaker 5 (45:14):
I don't know. Maybe part of it is because I'm
a twin, you know, that might have something to do
with it. At that young age. That what I knew
at twelve years old was to use my radar, you know,
just since thet you know, the feeling of something nearby,
because at the time I thought it was whatever grad
(45:36):
Brickie was there. Because maybe there were too many ghosts
in one house. It was the only explanation I can
come up with. But years later I realized that's not true. Okay.
Out of the years in that house, everybody's moved in
has had the same issues that we've had, except for
none of the children have been touched. No kids got
(45:57):
drigged underneath the bed. But when they would complained that
the shadows came out of the walls, it scared them,
so they moved them to the other bedroom, and like
most houses that investigate, the Honting room becomes the guest bedroom.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
You know, I want to break away from ghosts in
the paranormal for a second and ask you what is
your feeling or what is your impression about UFOs?
Speaker 5 (46:23):
The UFOs, Oh, they're out there, and it's because I
do all my work at night, m okay, And I've
been totally taken aback by what I've seen, just as shocked.
You know. I've gotten a couple of pictures, but just
hard to tell them at dark what it is. But
(46:44):
to see an object, you know, above you in the tree,
and I don't think that if there was anybody in there,
they even knew I was out there. You know, you
come out of an abandoned house and then it would
be there. It was, you know, so I'd see seen
as believing, then I believe, and I tell people that,
(47:06):
you know, I don't know about the Grays, but I've
seen a lot of ships that you can tell that
we're not from the same planet because the ships looked
so different. You know what I mean that you if
it was like us to air force the army, you know,
the planes kind of look alike and the helicopters kind
(47:28):
of look alike, but these ships, they would be so different.
And I was amazed how many of them are out there?
Speaker 4 (47:38):
Why do you think they're here?
Speaker 5 (47:40):
I don't know. I think that part of it is.
I think energy, you know, like like Earth is on
electrical grids, does not make sense. There's lay lines, I know,
there's you know, just a lot of history that's lost
that might explain it. But my father in law is deceased,
(48:05):
and he worked for the NSA. Okay, and his son,
who I'm married to. He was never allowed to talk
about work. They were never allowed to ask him what
he did. They just knew he worked at the NSA.
So we just happened to be talking One day we
went up there for a visit and he said that
(48:28):
asked me the same thing. When do I think of him?
And this is what I said, And I said, and
be all honesty, if they were won't take over the planet.
And they have done it by now, so I've got,
you know, worried somewhere else. I'm not gonna worry about that.
But he says, you really believe and he goes, but
you're not afraid? I said no, and he leaned down.
(48:48):
He said, it's you your half of what I know.
He said you would be afraid. So I was like,
well that was strange, calm, and that was all he said.
He would not elaborate. So on the way home from Maryland,
I said, your dad said if I'm just saying to me,
and my husband could not believe it. He said, my
dad has never said anything to any of us, and
(49:13):
I went, so I should be scared, huh, because it
was you know, I didn't know that. You know, he goes,
We all thought and maybe he worked, you know with you,
if I was you something, but he would never tell us,
and he I can't believe he told you that. And
I was like, so that kind of was like, yeah,
(49:34):
well they're real, but I didn't hear it.
Speaker 4 (49:39):
So let's see, I've got about three minutes left before
I have to say so long to you. What do
you think? What do you what are you and your
team going to be doing in the near future. Do
you have any in your sight on any vacant homes
or a vicant buildings that you're going to be investigating.
Speaker 5 (49:57):
Yes, we will have some more houses. I've been scouting out,
especially during the wintertime, and I've got out these homes.
I found some in an Hook, Virginia, and they're just
so beautiful, because it's amazing that some of them are
just absolutely beautiful. Old homes are falling apart, and I
(50:21):
can't believe one hundred and fifty years ago somebody built
this house. And usually on the chimneys, I can get
dates and when the house was built because they usually
put it in the bottom stones of a chimney, and
that the history is. But to me, it's like recording
lost history. But that's our next project right there. It
(50:42):
sounds like, man, I've got some people of family all
be taken with me while I'm helping their son, and
they're going to be coming with me.
Speaker 4 (50:50):
It sounds like you and your team are also historians,
just not paranormal investigators exactly.
Speaker 5 (50:57):
You have to be still learn anything, and you want
to learn the history, you know. And if I can find,
like the cemeteries, you don't believe I'm the cemeteries I find,
So I turned those into the Historical Society so they
can go there and set them up for protection because
nobody knows the cemeteries there.
Speaker 4 (51:19):
Where do you find these cemeteries that nobody knows where
they are?
Speaker 5 (51:22):
Behauld you find them by accident they're computer with for
those houses, And all of a sudden there's a cemetery
and it's just not registered because they were so early
on that they just you know, over time, things records
get lost, families die, you know, and then all of
a sudden there's a cemetery.
Speaker 4 (51:45):
So you're you're a quite busy lady.
Speaker 5 (51:48):
Yes, I try to be, and I really, like I said,
I tried to pay back that lady and that guy
who said who helped me, and they were ghosts. I
can't help them, but I repay it back and I
have every attention of doing that for the rest of
my life.
Speaker 4 (52:08):
What does your husband think about your ghost business.
Speaker 5 (52:11):
Well, when we got married thirty five years ago, I
told him, you know, I'm really weird. You know, I'm
into this, and he said, I love you anyhow. And
when he goes with me to certain places and I'll
put the recording, I'll hit play so you can listen
to a few minutes of it. And the ghosts say
(52:31):
my name, and he just looks at me and his
eyes just go wide because it's just the two of us,
you know, and he says, they were talking to you.
They know who you are. I said, I get that
a lot.
Speaker 4 (52:45):
Well, Gail, and we've got to say so long for now.
I want to thank you very much for joining us
continued success. Okay, thank you very much, and please give
my very best to your team as well.
Speaker 5 (52:55):
I will for sure, and please reach out in the
future for sure.
Speaker 4 (53:00):

Speaker 5 (53:01):
Now, all right, thank you, thank you, all all right.
