I was a skeptic until I moved into an old historic apartment where several unexplainable occurances took place. Over time within the dwelling I began to experience events which led to emotional and even physical harm. With no rational explainations I realized that these happenings where possibly paranormal in nature. Due to my confusion and aprehension to remain within the dwelling, I began studying the paranormal to try to find out some answers for myself. What is a haunting? Is there really life after death? Could everything I experienced be explained by natural events? With so many questions unanswered I decided to search out the truth, so it prompted me to start Second Light Paranormal. Most people mocked me about my endeavor to begin a paranormal research group, but this made me want it even more. During my journey, I found a great friend named Whitney Holley. Whitney encouraged me by helping me conduct our first investigation. We then began our search for people who may have had their own experience with the paranormal or who just shared our passion about this field of study. I am in this field to help those in need and offer a support system during a confusing and sometime terrifying time.
Whitney Holley
Co-Founder
Investigator
My name is Whitney Holley and I am an investigator with Second Light. I first became interested in the paranormal after some experiences in elementary school. Throughout my life those experiences have only increased in frequency and intensified. I have been on several investigations with SLP, most notably our many visits to Waverly Hills. My work with Second Light and my own curiosity have led me to study tarot, crystal work, and energy healing all of which can be used to clear a space and make it more peaceful for all inhabitants.

My name is Nick Ferrigno and I was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. Ever since I was little boy, I had many of my own personal experiences with the paranormal that I could not explain. The most profound experience that affected me occured was when I was about 13. I was awakened from my sleep and next to my bed sat a an empty wooden chair. I rolled over and to my suprise, I saw a very frail and sweaty African American man. He was wearing an old white t -shirt with dirt and holes all over it. He was holding a small white dog that was dirty and shaking. I looked up at the mans face and he was hunched over, jaw wide open, his piercing eyes staring right at me. So, I did what most other 13 year olds would do, I hid under the covers, said a prayer, peeked back out and the man was gone. I am determined to find out what really happens after you pass on. Currently, I have my Firefighter Certification and I am going through EMT school at Cincinnati State Technical College. I play softball during the spring, summer, and fall. I'm a very funny person who enjoys helping people and making others laugh.

Rob Haynes
Tech Manager
Investigator
My name is Rob Haynes, I am from Harrison Ohio. I have been a firefighter for 25 years. My interest in the paranormal began as child when the house I was raised in had many “unexplained things” occur while growing up there. I have had numerous experiences throughout my adult life as well that has only continued to arouse my curiosity. I met Alicia through a co-worker whose home was being investigated by SLP. I am very open to the process of investigating as well as debunking. I am still trying to find my niche so, I look forward to working with SLP and maybe continue to “help” others on this side as well as the other.
Shay Baldwin
Investigator
Group Promoter
Have you ever needed help with something that you couldn't understand and had no one to turn too, not even your loved ones? There is help. My name is Mary Shay and I experienced paranormal phenomena at a very young age. When I was three years old my father was murdered, this led to my need to find out everything about death. As I got older I struggled with my faith, is there a Heaven and Hell and what happens when our physical body passes. Shortly after my father's death, I developed a relationship with two imaginary friends. I could see these entities and I carried on conversations with them directly as if they where living, breathing human beings. I communicated with them off and on until the age of ten. Eventually, my friends became violent by biting and scratching me. As I grew up, I later came to the realization that I had been communicating not with a wild fantasy or my vivid imagination but with spirits or entities. I have always believed that there are spirits around us since I had myself experienced the phenomena, the positive and the negative. As an adult, I now have the opportunity to find the proof that I seek and at the same time give help to those who are in need.
