Thank You goes out to: Chad,Terry and Mr.Hendricks ;D And all the gals who I met at the door for tickets. I just wantd to thank you for the Unexplained show Staturday night in Steven's Point!That was some of the best information, I had heard in a long time and the funniest too!I can't stress the fact that everyone should try to make it to at least one conference, if not all of them, It is very interesting and there is always some humor attached to some of the stories, giving the whole show a very good learning experience and the best of entertainment too!

I had a great time at the conference. Although I did not talk to Chad about investigating my house, i came to the conclusion that i can lure out the ghosts in my house and *hopefully* see some kind of phenomenon. it's happened before, but of course, thats on occasion. Anyone know the way that I can actually lure them out? i'm going to try electronic voice recordings as well as pictures and talking, but thats all i know. Thanks Chad, Terry, and Rick. It was a great conference!

Hi everyone, I want to say thanks to all those who made the Stevens Point Conference a great time. Once again the crowd was full of energy, and the speakers were amazing.
Richard Hendricks once again showed why he is the master of storytelling with strange accounts of ghosts, little people, and the weird brown bag.
Terry Fisk also had the crowd in deep thought with his fascinating look at the afterlife. If is was not for time constraints, the audience would have asked Terry questions all evening.
Thanks again to all, and I can’t wait until next year!
-Chad Lewis

Thanks to everyone who attended Saturday's conference. We had a great time and appreciate your support. During my talk, I think I mentioned how we rarely have anything strange happen to us, and if it does, it's often ambiguous. Just after the conference we had exactly one of those things happen. A bunch of us went to dinner at the Hilltop Pub & Grill, just east of I-39/Hwy 51 on Hwy 10. Later, while sitting at the bar, the bartender went into the back to do something. While he was gone, a little side door to the cooler flew open. Chad & I looked at each other. Did you see that? Just then, the bartender comes out, says "Darn that pub ghost" and slams the door closed. We thought maybe he was fooling with us, as we had also eaten lunch there earlier and had left some flyers behind for the conference. Later, though, when he had a quiet moment, we asked about the ghost. Sure enough, he said he's had similar experiences, with seeing people late at night going through doorways, hearing things slam around in other rooms, and most of the wait-staff have stories to tell. He didn't go into great detail, but he was convinced there's a ghost there. The bartender went away. Chad & I were talking, and saying how weird it is, we'll be out and accidentally stumble into a haunted pub or meet an alien abductee just about every time we're together. One of us remarked, it's really strange how something like that always happens. Just then, a loud crash sounded behind us. We turned around and saw this two-foot tall antique plastic beer bottle rolling on the ground. It had crashed from a display overhead, breaking off chunks. Even the bartender was amazed. He wasn't sure whether it was sitting on a speaker and vibrated off, or whether it had been sitting on a couple of wooden bins in the overhead display. Whatever, it was perfect timing. Another unexplained incident. The Hilltop has great food and an even better tap and bottled beer selection. We had a great time there and highly recommend it. Stop in sometime, and maybe you'll have a spooky experience too. Don't forget to check out the bus crash picture next to the bar. Sometime in the '50s, a passenger bus driver suffered a stroke while driving past the Hilltop. He lost control and the bus crashed into and through part of the saloon. The photo shows the bus resting amid the debris. The Hilltop was fixed up and expanded from its original incarnation. Richard Hendricks rdh@execpc.com Weird Wisconsin www.weird-wi.com/

About your dinner ghost ...As the old saying goes: If you wish hard enough and look hard long enough and keep the dream alive..It will happen! My saying is...{Those who seek, get the treat!} I myself just got the a-ok to detect a 3-400 acer field...and will be digging in once the weather is better and I don't have to worry about sinking!Though I may have to wait untill after the harvesting, because they are going in to plant very soon.No problem because they will bring stuff up that is down below the ground for me!I have not found the meteorite..but with my indications the field that I have permission now..May be the spot and there is lots to be hopefull for with this one.
