Troy Taylor Headlines Paranormal Conference
Author and premier ghost investigator Troy Taylor headlines the Kansas Paranormal Conference 2009. Troy is the founder and president of the American Ghost Society, a national network of ghost hunters that collects accounts of ghost sightings and haunted houses and uses investigative techniques to track down evidence of the supernatural. Troy has written 55 books about the paranormal. Along with writing about the unusual, he has appeared in newspaper and magazine articles about ghosts and has also been fortunate enough to be interviewed hundreds of times for radio and television broadcasts about the supernatural. He has appeared in a number of documentary films, several television series and in one feature film about the paranormal. He is also the executive producer for the series Cringe, which was created by the iClips Network.
