Liam and Mary trace their investigative roots to formative losses and early encounters with the unexplained, including a pivotal EVP capture during a New England investigation that confirmed their calling. They emphasize storytelling as central to their work—especially at Salem-area sites tied to trauma like the Pingree House—where emotional discomfort and anti-woman EVPs echoed historical injustice. Their embodied responses—nausea, headaches, auditory anomalies—underscore how places hold layered energy. Personal reflections reveal how past hardship, including an abusive marriage, shaped Mary’s advocacy and resilience. Investigations across historic venues—from ballrooms to hotels—highlight residual phenomena and transformative moments for skeptics. Crucially, they approach spirit communication with humility: verifying names like 'Eric' through archival research, honoring boundaries when evidence points to violent loss, and trusting intuitive hits—like Liam sensing ancient battles or receiving the name 'Gabriel'—only after cross-checking with lived experience and history.
