Aaron Sulser – Founder and Lead Investigator

Aaron started Dark Alley Paranormal Investigators in 2008 in a response to the growing popularity of paranormal investigation and ghost hunting. Aaron wanted to form a group that anyone could join for a thrill seeking adventure.

His background in paranormal research began with a trip to the Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville Kentucky. His group at that time consisted of 5 others and was able to investigate the entire building by themselves. Aaron heard strange sounds, captured EVP’s and was at one point “touched” by something that wasn’t visible.

Aaron returned to Waverly a few months later and again experienced some things that could not be explained.

We are currently schedule our 2012 events. Please check back soon for details.

Sarah’s paranormal work began when husband, Aaron went to the Waverly Hills Sanatorium in April of 2008. She has since become a a key part of how Dark Alley is run and maintained.

Sarah and Aaron investigated Waverly Hills together in September of 2009. They were the only two people in the entire building and were able to capture a man’s voice on a recorder. They also had a few strange experiences in their hotel room just a mile away from the sanatorium.

Ghosts and the paranormal realm has always intrigued Sarah and has led her to this position.

Due to a family history of paranormal experiences, Austin has always been intrigued with the concept of spiritual anomalies. He may not be able to prove the existence of life after death, but he is very determined to try. With an extensive knowledge in Psychology, science and Parapsychology, Austin is on a never ending adventure with his colleagues at Dark Alley to find the truth.

Growing up in the small town of Fort Recovery, Ohio, Alex developed an interest in the paranormal due to two major historical battles that took place between the English and the Indians in Fort Recovery. These two battles resulted in a few thousand deaths and has led the way for numerous ghost stories, myths, and urban legends. Alex is a believer, but needs the definitive proof to validate his beliefs. The only way to accomplish this is to seek out the truth with the help of Dark Alley Paranormal.

Alex currently resides in Dublin, Ohio with his wife Krista and their Yorkshire terrier Bowser. In his free time he enjoys sports, comic books and movies. Although Alex has never had an encounter with the paranormal, he knows the answers are out there, waiting to be discovered.

Jeff first became interested in the paranormal in the late 1990′s while living in a house that was haunted. He was able to take pictures inside the home and always get 1 picture in a particular room with a ghostly image on it. He learned many years later that a previous owner had passed away in that very room. After that he has been on a journey to learn as much as he can about the paranormal. A few years back Jeff helped form a group that has been able to do quite well at capturing evidence from residential investigations. Jeff hopes to be able to help Dark Alley out any way he can.

Jeff has a home here in Columbus, Ohio which he shares with his wife and son.

Although Bethany did not have an experience before attending an investigation at Waverly Hills, she has always been interested in the paranormal. She is currently attending college and is a hotel manager in Hilliard, Ohio.

Bryan first began to have an interest in the paranormal as a youth. There were several local haunts where he grew up that were always a topic of conversation. His real experiences in the paranormal started to take shape when he was in college. There was a graveyard on the college campus where he would always see something just out of the corner of his eye. He and a couple of his friends had a hair-raising experience in a campus fraternity house. Bryan’s first actual hunt was for a rumored ghost that haunts one of the college buildings, though it was very informal. He enjoys watching paranormal programs like Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures.

Bryan has been on one semi-professional ghost hunt with his wife and other friends. This was an exciting time for him to finally experience what it was like to go through an actual ghost hunt. He is really looking forward to going to places such as Waverly Hills, Trans Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, and various other locations with Dark Alley. He hopes to be part of a group that can find proof of the paranormal in a smart and technical way, but also have a fun time doing it.
