Do you believe in ghosts, spirits or the after life? For every person who doesn't believe that "ghosts" really exist, you'll find another one whom does. One such true believer is Mr. Charles Haynes, a truck driver by profession and founder of the Delta Paranormal Society, an Arkansas based team of ghost hunters and paranormal investigators. According to Mr. Haynes, it's his belief in ghosts that has brought him closer to God. "I want to know why they are here," states Mr. Haynes, a tall, mild mannered man with a soft-spoken voice and an easygoing personality, "There's a reason for it. If you want to make the difference of good and bad, I don't think that really has anything to do with it".

A Part Time Hobby Turns Into A Full Time Passion

For the past two years Mr. Haynes has been on a personal quest to prove the existence of ghosts and to establish himself in the field of paranormal research. Armed with only "Dowling Rods", a set of camcorders with night vision and infrared capabilities, and two high 8's to record audio impressions, Mr. Haynes states that he is capable of entering a room, a building or even a cemetery and pinpointing the exact location of natural energy that might be in the air. According to Mr. Haynes, this is an indicator of paranormal activity and when the Dowling Rods cross you are on the trail of a ghost.

When asked how long he has been interested in ghosts and the paranormal, he stated to me, "I started doing this up until a certain point, just this past year, but I have been studying them for over four or five years. I've driven a truck for the last 32 years on the road and this was just one of my hobbies I've always done. I've always thought there was something more to it than just the fact of some people saying, well, yes, I've seen this and I've seen that and what would encourage me is seeing these other groups actually going out and starting to do this and I said, well then, it can be done".

Hello my name is Charles Haynes the founder and lead investigator for Delta Paranormal Society, I want to personally thank Mr. Robert Grubbs for the acknowledgement he gave us for our work, Which I think we do different then other paranormal teams, most are satisfied with capturing pictures or audio of paranormal activity, but my team is trained to go beyond just pictures, Our effort is to seek out the truth of their existence, Calculating our research has brought us closer to the secret, The more we learn bring us closer to respecting and revealing the reality of life. I've always believed in God and the things that was taught to me from childhood, But to be able to communicate with the Afterlife would I think bring us closer to god. throughout the lifetime of man there's been controversy of the existence of God, I think the answer lies with them
