APRIL Marks our 8th Year Anniversary!!!

GERC was founded in April 2001 to help people who believe they have a ghost in their homes or where they work. Often times they are concerned because the activity has increased to a point where they are troubled, afraid and don't know who they can turn to without someone thinking they sound crazy.

Good news.... You're not crazy. Paranormal Activity or Ghostly Activity does exist and has been widely documented all through out history. We've also got over 7 years of investigations, research & experience to help you better understand what's going on in your home or office. 

We both benefit by helping each other because we can come in, setup our equipment and conduct an investigation that will allow us the opportunity to observe and record evidence of paranormal activity. We then study this evidence to try and better understand what goes on when it happens. We can then use this information to help put to rest any fears or uncertainty you may have and help answer any questions you may have. 

We investigate the states of Washington and Oregon within 50 miles of the Portland/Vancouver area, free of charge!

Investigations are usually done in the evening hours until the early morning hours and can be on going depending on the level of activity and the need of the client. We don't just come and go and that's it. Before, During or long after an investigation, should you need us again, we'll be happy to help you with any or new questions or concerns.

 We travel to homes and businesses to gather evidence with electronics and help the people who contact us deal with their concerns. We respect your privacy and will keep your personal identifying information private to keep others from contacting you. Only your story and any evidence collected will be shared with others minus personal name/contact details.

What you need to know before contacting any ghost group

Over the last decade there have been countless ghost groups who have popped up and even more "ghost hunters" who are interested in visiting places that are haunted. Anyone can call themselves "ghost hunters" or "paranormal investigators" but because that title is shared by many who are professional and credible, not everyone is.

People who have legit concerns often have no where to turn and seek out these investigators with no clue or idea what they maybe getting themselves into. They are trusting these individuals to come into their homes or businesses to "do their thing".

The problem is, how can you trust them? How can you trust that someone in their group isn't going to steal something when the lights go dark? We'll tell you what you need to know and how to protect yourself. Plus, we'll share some secrets that some people don't want you to know!

Find out what you need to know


Are you a Parent of a Psychic or Gifted Child?

Does your child see things that aren't there? Does your child know things that they shouldn't know about someone who passed away a long time ago? Do you feel  that your child is not imagining things but maybe gifted with abilities that you can't normally talk about to other people?

Many parents feel they have no where to turn to help their children. They often feel like they are carrying a deep dark secret like there is something wrong with their child. They can't take them to the doctor or school counselor because it's not something you normally talk about and maybe prescribe them with medication for an illness that they may not have.

The good news is GERC can help! We're dedicated to helping families deal with these real issues in a positive and supportive environment. If we can't help, we will put you in touch with people who can. As always... free of charge.

Where we've Investigated

While we make every effort to maintain privacy and confidentiality, there are some places that we can mention that we've investigated without being specific without it having a direct impact. We have removed specific details of each investigation to keep others from trying to retrace our steps and ask clients for another investigation. Some names of these investigations are for us to remember that investigation better.  Also, these are only a handful of places we've investigated... there's more but we've probably forgotten.   :-)
