Vendor of the Week 11: Kat Green

katgreenheadshot

Kat Green is the alias of authors KAT de Falla and Rachel GREEN.

Rachel Green has always believed in ghosts but saw her first full body apparition while working at an old movie theater in college. When she met Kat de Falla at a writer’s workshop, she knew she’d met a kindred spirit – one who was also sensitive to the hereafter. And after bonding on a few ghost adventures, Kat Green was born.

Kat lived in a haunted house for too long. When things really heated up, she had several paranormal teams investigate, but things only got worse. When her mother suggested they contact a shaman, she agreed to come, saying she had been waiting for Kat’s call. The home was cleansed and sold. When she paired up with Rachel Green, the idea of co-writing a book with a paranormal real estate agent seemed perfect.

Sloane Osborne and the “Haunts for Sale” series was born.

Guest Speaker: Kristan T. Harris

Presentation: “The Hidden History of Giants,” Saturday, UWM Ballroom West

HIdden History of Giants

Kristan T. Harris is a top traffic journalist for alternative news TV/talk radio program The Rundown Live. Harris has been featured on multiple national radio programs regarding his research into esoteric books, hidden history and secret societies.

Harris will present a compelling presentation of his extensive research of giant human skeletons. The investigation effort included using the Library of Congress database, local archaeological society records and historical documents – which resulted in unearthing over 1,000 American newspaper articles claiming to discover remains of giant human skeletons.

Many of these articles connect legitimate institutions, colleges and real scientists as well as local Indian effigy mounds. Harris has interviewed and collaborated with both skeptics and top researchers in the subject of giant humans and recently was acknowledged in Jim Vieira (History Channel’s In Search of the Lost Giants) and Hugh Newman’s (Ancient Aliens) recent book Giants on Record: America’s Hidden History, Secrets in the Mounds and the Smithsonian Files.

More Outer Con Announced–3rd Ward and Forest Home Cemetery tours!

We originally called these events “After Con” but “Outer Con” may or may not be a better term. These are fun and interesting things for you to do the weekend of the conference if you want a little extra experience. These events are endorsed by us, but most of them are organized by the groups hosting them, not the Milwaukee Paranormal Conference. Most of them have a very limited space, so buy ’em while they’re available.

-We previously announced an investigation with the Paranormal Investigators of Milwaukee at the Milwaukee Theater the night of Friday, October 14. This was such a popular option that the first investigation session SOLD OUT. A second session has just 9 available spots left (and probably less by the time you read this.
