Warning- Ghost Divas Live Guests!

August 8th, 2010

wahp Warning!

Please Read before Appearing on Ghost Divas Live

If you are contemplating a guest appearance on the Ghost Divas Live show, we feel it is only fair to warn you, what to expect. The moment your appearance is announced, you will be deluged with emails, phone calls and messages. Some will be from well-meaning friends begging you to reconsider. They will tell you that nothing stops a career faster than an appearance on the Ghost Divas Live show. As THE END is written upon your career you will shunned, silenced and forgotten. You will be black-balled, your phone will stop ringing and no one will want you to appear at their conference. Dire, indeed, but it gets worse. If your friends are kind, your enemies and those of the Ghost Divas, won’t be. First off, they will threaten to delete you from their Facebook friends list. Say, it isn’t so! Next up they will never in life, or death for that matter, buy another of your books, attend another of your lectures, or listen to another of your radio shows. If that isn’t enough to give you second thoughts about your guest appearance on Ghost Divas Live, the name calling will begin. Do you realize what bitches the Divas are? Do you want to hang your name with theirs, even if only for an hour? And think of the podcasts? Everyone will know that you dared to talk with the Divas. Are you shamed yet?

Take a deep breath and relax. Before you become a bundle of nerves, please peruse the following list of some of our guests on the Ghost Divas Live show. Do you think their appearances on our show ruined their careers?

The good, the bad and the blind

August 5th, 2010

Sometimes it is hard to hear the truth, especially if it burst the bubble one has created around a friend, acquaintance or even someone you have seen on TV. Being a fan of a TV personality is not an easy task. Fans love their idols unconditionally and refuse to hear a harsh word about them. They feel sympathy for them as their idols are being shackled and chained and sent off to “Celebrity prison” because they got busted. A real fan will always feel compelled to believe it was a set up or perhaps mistaken identity. A true fan will ignore the facts. They will claim it to be altered or photo-shopped. A true fan will cover up and do medical research and blog and post on social media networks keeping the other fans posted as to why their celebrity is currently acting like a lunatic. A true fan will watch the video tape and demand an FBI encoded date stamp a lie detector certificate of truth and the blood of a lamb from Switzerland, born only in September of course. A true fan is blind, obsessive and has extensive enthusiasm towards the celebrity because the celebrity is somewhere they more than likely wish to be. Some fans seem to think they “know the celebrity, on a personal level.” Perhaps they met them at some paranormal conference where they paid a hefty price to shake hands with them and get five minutes of one on one time with them. “They are so nice, they could never do or say that.” That’s what celebrities do, they pretend and walk away with your money. No, I am not suggesting that all celebrities are assholes, but if you paid money to meet them, trust me they are being nice to each and every person that passed the buck. There is a good chance that they are laughing at you, the self proclaimed biggest fan of all after you left. They agreed you had something “unexplainable” in your photo from 1998 at your grandma’s family get together. But because you paid them to be “nice” to you, they will not tell you the truth. The truth being you had a ghostly camera strap captured and nothing more. They are so nice huh?

This is where the phrase “Parasocial Interaction” comes into play. The distance between reality and imagination. Personally, this is very common in the paranormal field. It’s everywhere. People are fans of people that appear to be something they are not. From wanna be rapping film producers that appear to be “all that and 12 bags of chips”, but what the fan does not realize is that the celebrity they have created is serving grande low fat mocha-latte’s every day. They come home and build their “celebrity life” on the internet because there are enough people out there to believe that this person is a “somebody”. Why not become a fan of your coffee shop guy in real life? At least he can hook you up with some biscotti or something?

This week, we interviewed Brian and Michelle Harnois and Jeff and Shannon Sylvia. It was a extensive interview where many questions were answered. For one Paranormal Celebrity her reality finally caught up with her and the trail of lies she left behind. Many people fell for it and now see that she really isn’t that “Saint of a person” they thought she was. But there are still the “fans” that refuse to see the truth, hear the truth and will never think negatively about their chosen celebrity that is “nice to them”. But to the fan, they are a celebrity and they can get away with it right?

In case you missed this controversial interview we invite you to sit back and relax. It’s over 2 hours long and should answer any and all questions about a particular para-celebrity. One more thing, if you bring up particular peoples names at your office, do they really know who you are talking about? I doubt it.

No Paranormal Drama? The good, the bad the ugly

August 3rd, 2010

No Paranormal Drama was a great idea. No doubt the site was started with the best of intentions and many joined with those same intentions.

But we know about the best laid plans of mice and men…. And so it is with some who signed on for the No Paranormal Drama.

One minute they are on the No Paranormal Drama proclaiming let’s work together, down with drama, the next they are on a hate spewing site, encouraging drama and hatred. Perhaps they don’t see the irony and hypocrisy of their actions. But others do.

Drama is drama, no matter how you look at it. No matter how self-righteous and indignant, we may feel, drama is drama. If you insist on taking a stand, then you are either for drama or you are against drama. You can’t paddle two canoes at once and you can’t take a stand against drama on the one site, while encouraging it on another. People will see your hypocrisy.

It is one thing to talk about no paranormal drama…It is another to actually practice what you preach. `Janice O.

Crossing the line of Cyber-Bullying in the paranormal field.

July 19th, 2010

Below is an email I sent out to as many people as I possibly could this evening. I just want people to see what kind of person this guy truly is and what levels he will stoop too, just to get a feeling of power. This is the most pathetic display of insanity I have witnessed in a long time. This guy seems to think it’s his “job” of some kind to enter into any and all “battles” taking place in the paranormal field. In reality, he’s never even conducted a minute of research and has no clue as to what it is. He’s involved because he wants attention and nothing more. The email below states briefly as to what took place. Without going into further details, his Facebook actions speak louder than his screaming, yelling and violent threats could ever be. We have ALL dealt with him in some shape or form. My family has been on alert because of him and I had to go as far as contacting my local police department because of the people he was encouraging to harass me and my children. This is IT, he has crossed the line this time! If you support him SHAME ON YOU! If you do not see the alarming nature and mentality of this guy you have your own demons to deal with. Please read… this is not a debate. Just an information blog.

This email was sent to A LOT of people in the field. Some you may know, some you may not. I just wanted to get it out to as many people that I could think of. THIS crap needs to stop NOW!

_____________________________________________________

First of all, I am not interested in your opinion of me, the Ghost Divas or anything along that line. I am sending you this so YOU can see what kind of person you potentially may be dealing with. Enough is enough. Danny Paden aka Reap Sow has crossed many lines with his anger, but this takes the cake. I am NOT defending the actions of the kids that took over the recently created and now deleted page where my name was attached. It was a child like mindset by those that created the page, I will not name at this time, but trust me, they are included in this email. Sure, the kids took over the page and he (reap) jumped on the bandwagon to fight with each and every one of them! Now, Danny Paden continues to pick fights with 15 1/2 year old boys!
I have already warned all the teens that may be linked up to this game Danny and his accomplices are up too, but it’s gone too far when KIDS are involved! I have asked them to report and ignore him, I hope they follow through. Physically threatening children is NEVER a good thing, NO MATTER WHAT THE SUBJECT IS. The difference between them is that they are REAL children, he is a 40 something year old ADULT.

I stumbled upon this this evening and I had NO IDEA that Danny Paden/REAP was CONTINUING the cyber bullying after that Facebook page was removed. As a parent I am appalled by the actions of this 40 something grown man! Kids will be kids, because they ARE KIDS. But the mindset of Danny Paden at this point is reckless, immature and a perfect example of what a “Cyber Bully” truly is. (quote from below text)
” Reap Sow -

she probably took her own life thinking bout what she had done givin birth to you”

That is NOT funny and no adult should EVER speak to a child like that, no matter how “punkish” the child may be on his own FB page. I don’t care if you send this to him, blog it, share it, post it all over the internet in an attempt to “get back at me” for having an opinion that you may not like. It’s time to grow up folks and take a peek at what is REALLY going on with this guy. You may all think we are “mean” or whatever, but we would NEVER and I mean NEVER harass children, and I know you all know that.
I hope and pray that you see that this is inappropriate.

I know this is unwanted drama and If you do nothing more than read and delete this, this is all I wish. I do not wish to discuss or get into any kind of debate over his actions. I just wanted everyone to see what kind of “man” he really is. It’s not funny and it’s not “powerful”, it’s sad, pathetic and very alarming. I don’t care if you are friends with him or whatever. I am just sharing what has been going on. I don’t expect anyone to take action or side with anyone , I am just sharing this horrific display of anger with you. Do with it what you will. (See below for the unedited FB conversation)
