| Jen
Mauricio - Founder & Case Manager |

I love researching the paranormal,
and I love helping people, so combining the two was
a no-brainer. When I moved to the Inland Empire, I
found paranormal groups in surrounding areas, but
not near home. Sure there are a few groups that get
together and go to cemeteries after dark, but that's
not where my interest lies. Helping people who are
scared about something happening in their homes, who
are confused and uncomfortable, that's what I want
to do. I was talking with some friends in the area
who have similar interests and on a plane ride home
from Colorado, Golden State Paranormal was born! I'm
enjoying not only learning more about the field as
I go, but also educating people as well. |
| April
Sundland - Lead Investigator |
|
 |
My name is April Sundland. I became
fascinated with the paranormal when I started watching
Scooby Doo as a child. Then came Edgar Allen Poe at
age 10. Throughout my life I've been reading and watching
all facet's of the paranormal trying to absorb everything
I can. I've had a few experiences that remain unexplained.
I never thought I would be able to become a part of
this growing field. Thanks to Jason and Grant of "Ghost
Hunters" for their time, and for paving the road for
me to become an investigator. I am so happy to have
joined Golden State Paranormal. |
| Renee
Hoalst - Lead Investigator |
|
 |
Hi my name is Renee and I live in
Ontario. I have a 13 year old son. I have been interested
in the paranormal and finding answers since I was
11 years old. Besides the love of ghost hunting I
am actively involved with the Boy Scouts of America. |
| Adrienne
Longo - Investigator |
|
 |
I have been a resident of the Inland
Empire for over 30 years and have known about many
of the local stories about haunted locations. My love
for history, knowledge of the area and interest in
the paranormal drew me to find a professional group
that does more than walk around 'supposed' haunted
locations in the dark. I feel that my interest in
the paranormal, love for history and natural ability
to talk to people creates a great way to help people
that are trying to figure out what is going on in
their homes.
When I'm not chasing ghosts you can find me at the local Renaissance Faire. |
| Michael
McMullin - Evidence Analysis Tech. |
|
 |
My name is Michael and I have experience
with Audio Visual Devices and am able to set up various
components of Audio and Visual equipment. I also spend
endless hours reviewing various evidence (recordings
of Video and Sound) after investigations for any unusual
activity. It is often a bit redundant and boring,
but someone has to do it, and I do enjoy it.
I had a series of paranormal situations happen to
me when I was little and now that I'm older I am interested
in learning more about why it happened.. I like to
help people understand that most paranormal events
are often easily explained, and those that are not
- are not likely to harm anyone anyway. |
| Chris
- Lead Evidence Analyst |
|
 |
My name is chris and I have been investigating the paranormal for over 5 years now. I have seen many things that have no explainable answers to them, aside from being paranormal and I seek out the answers the questions that arise from them. I enjoy helping others to better understand what it is that they are dealing with in the own lives. When I am not investigating the paranormal I am a full time dad of two wounderful children and I own a private security company. I enjoy everything nascar and visit the races often, my kids and I enjoy off roading, going to amusement parks, going to the movies and what ever else we can find to get into trouble. |
| Erika
Lowery - Investigator |
|
 |
Erika Lowery was raised in Burbank
CA where her father helped the people down the block
with their weird occurrences. Erika learned at first
hand a very young age what poltergeist activity is.
She currently resides in Imperial Beach CA, but a
great deal of her own recent paranormal experience
came from when she resided in San Jacinto just a few
years ago. She truly enjoys helping others understand
what they are going through. She is empathetic to
their fears, because she has been there also. As a
mother of two, she knows the fears that can come with
being in a paranormal home with children. She is an
expert on historical history of lands and prior ownership
searches. From her youth she continued her research
though college, always examining and trying to understand
the rational side of the paranormal. A true skeptic,
Erika has learned to look at the negatives more than
the real pictures. She has seen pictures she really
can’t explain. She has taken pictures she can’t explain.
She has had her 9 year old son tell her things there
is no way he could know about his great-grandfather.
She is a mom to a son and daughter who keep her and
their step-dad extremely busy, in opposite directions
usually. |
| Chad
Stevens - Skeptic/Investigator |
|
 |
Originally from Minneapolis MN, the
US Navy transplanted Chad in Imperial Beach CA. As
a child, he was scared of his grandparent’s home,
especially the attic. He always had a creepy feeling
there. He and his wife Erika have been investigating
together for 4 years. Chad is a die-hard skeptic waiting
for his first real undisputable encounter. He has
had experiences that he cannot explain that usually
surround Erika’s 9 year old son, but he is working
on explaining those also. For their honeymoon, Chad
and Erika planned a “haunted honeymoon” traveling
to some of the more reputed active locations throughout
California. Just don’t ask him about his experience
the night before their wedding. They both enjoy visiting
their local haunts, the Hotel Del Coronado and the
Whaley House, on a regular basis. He has two wonderful
step-kids that keep him very busy. |

My name is Kim and I live in Corona.
I have been working in finance for 14 years. I have
always been curious about the paranormal. As a child,
my parents always bought me books on ghosts and dinosaurs.
I also love animals and history, especially ancient
Egyptian history. Being a part of this group allows
me to explore the paranormal as well as help people. |

My name is Matthew Boone and I live

camping and go to haunted places. I became more interested

in Louisiana . I’m ready to do some real investigations
to find real evidence. |
| Paula Adey - Investigator in Training |
|

My name is Paula Adey. I am happily married to a terrific guy who lets me be me. I am also the mother of 3 beautiful daughters and grandma to 3 beautiful grand daughters. I am currently employed with Care-A-Van Transit Systems which provides transportation to the seniors and disabled who are low income in the Hemet/San Jacinto area. My ultimate goal in life is to help keep animals out of the shelters by finding them loving homes or taking care of them myself. Recently, I became a part of Golden State Paranormal and am truly excited to begin my journey with you. |
| Michael
Willis - Investigator in Training |
|
 |
Grew up pretty sheltered from the
paranormal. Raised protestant Christian and all that
jazz. As I grew up, and life experiences overcame
my dogma and beliefs, I wanted to know more and figure
things out. I'm still a committed Christian, but religion
and dogma only go so far before you have to look beyond
them. So I started looking into the paranormal in
a much more deep way, going to supposed "haunted houses",
reading theories, etc., etc. Wanted to get into actual
field work, so here I am, with GSPRS |
| Jennifer
Luttrell - Investigator in Training |
|
 |
Hi! My name is Jennifer, but you can
call me Jenn. I am married to Kevin, one of the other
team members of GSPRS. We live in Ontario, but I was
born and raised in Los Angeles. I also have lived
in Hacienda Heights and the Santa Barbara area (college
years). I was fascinated with the paranormal ever
since I was a kid. It all started with watching Scooby
Doo, The Ghostbusters movies and cartoon show, and
episodes of Unsolved Mysteries, and hearing stories
about my 6th grade Science teacher and his friends’
experiences with ghosts. All through my life I have
continued my interest in the paranormal by listening
to personal ghost stories, reading books, watching
movies and TV shows, and listening to radio shows
about the paranormal. My friends, family, and I have
had personal experiences with the paranormal, which
has fueled my interest in investigating the paranormal.
But what really sparked the flame was listening to
Darkness Radio and realizing that I could play a part
in finding out what are those things that go bump
in the night and help people at the same time. Besides
the paranormal, my other interests are spending time
with friends and family, cooking, jewelry-making,
watching movies and tv shows, and doing whatever fun
things that might spark my interest. |
| Kevin
Luttrell - Investigator in Training |
|
 |
I am happily married to Jennifer.
We both live in Ontario. I have been interested in
the paranormal since childhood and formed a monster
club with other people as a preteen. The team of my
youth quite literally had most of the equipment to
slay whatever beast might come our way including crosses,
holy water, stakes, and even a real silver bullet.
After watching Ghostbusters I wondered if it were
really possible to deal head on with ghost. Well this
brings me to this club. I hope that there is much
for me to learn along with the experience there is
to gain. |
| Christine
Larson - Investigator |
|
 |
I am Christine Larson and I live in
Chino Hills. I am a working mother of 2 young boys
(one of whom loves to "hunt ghosts"). Like other members
of the group, I have had a lifelong fascination with
the study of the paranormal. I have a good understanding
of how investigations work and I recently had the
privilege of joining an investigation with members
of the TAPS group. My experience with EVPs and communicating
with the K-2 meter left me wanting more – which brought
me here!! As a new member, I am eager to learn more
and look forward to future investigations. |
| Elaine Sugita - Investigator in Training |
|
 |
I was raised in a devout Christian home in Dyersburg, TN, and now reside in Rialto, CA. I have been a sensitive all of my life, but am now able to use it in a more professional manner. I am clairvoyant, able to see and communicate with spirits, and a spiritual healer. I have had some extremely awesome experiences with the paranormal, along with some very unfortunate events. I am a Payroll Supervisor by trade, and have three beautiful little girls, who are also sensitive. |
| Nick Weber - Investigator in Training |
|
 |
My name is Nick. I live in the Riverside area with my wonderful wife, who supports me fully in all of my passions. Some of them include Music, Graphic Design and Investigating the Paranormal. As long as I can remember, I have been interested in all things paranormal. Over the years I have watched most everything and read forests full of books on the paranormal. I suppose what draws me to this field is my thirst for knowledge and desire to help others...both living and not. I am happy to be a part of Golden State Paranormal |
