Paranormal Among Us with Paranormal Paul
2 DAYS AGO
In this episode, the hosts welcome Lee Hatfield, a former paramedic and RAF veteran with over 25 years of experience, to discuss the realities of paranormal investigation. Lee shares his journey from UK TV-inspired curiosity to co-founding a Canadian investigation team, and offers a grounded, evidence-based perspective on ghosts, demons, cryptids, and poltergeists. The conversation covers common misconceptions, the reliability of ghost-hunting equipment, and the importance of critical thinking in separating genuine phenomena from mundane explanations.
Lee Hatfield brings a disciplined, logical approach to paranormal investigation, shaped by his medical and military background. He emphasizes that most reported hauntings have natural explanations, such as EMF, mold, or infrasound, and that mental health issues are often mistaken for demonic activity. He shares personal experiences, including a patient's spirit during a cardiac arrest, a child's hand grab at a historic home, and an unexplained orb, to validate firsthand encounters. Lee also discusses the rarity of true demonic cases, the potential connection between forest cryptids and poltergeists, and his skepticism about ghost-hunting apps. He highlights the importance of adapting communication to spirits' understanding and using reliable tools like the TriField meter. The episode concludes with Lee's interest in investigating famous US locations and his passion for history, while promoting his show Paranormal Prism.
