The C.A.S.P.E.R. Ghost Hunter Training is an in-depth program,
and is applicable to novice and "pro" alike.
C.A.S.P.E.R. is an acronym that stands for:
Committed to Acquiring Superior Paranormal Evidence & Results
The class runs takes place at the fantastically haunted
Ashbary Coffee House in Willow Springs.
The haunted Ashbary Coffee House sits on thegrounds of a brothel from the 1800s.
The brothel burnt to the ground,
killing several...
Today, the staff of the Ashbary experiences
almost daily paranormal activity -
ranging from loud bangs, to shadows,
to full-body apparitions.
A delightfully delicious place so learn ghost hunting, wouldn't you say?
C.A.S.P.E.R. is a treasure trove of data designed to help you get better results
in your ghost hunting efforts,
as well as preserve the integrity of the results you do secure.
Written and taught by Ghost hunters Kevin Frantz &
Alex Felix, the class has lots of "hands-on" as well as a
dressed-rehearsal investigation
of the haunted Ashbary.
The course concludes with a written test and a Certificate of Completion.
Those individuals who own Ghost hunting gear are welcome to bring it. If you don't have gear, use ours. We suggest that you don't buy gear until after the class, because you'll learn in class what to buy and what NOT to buy.
The class is $49.95 and it includes a free lunch at the Ashbary (choice of sandwich and beverage.) They also have ice cream, candy, chips, coffee, beer, etc.,
that you are welcome to purchase during the class breaks.
If you've always wanted to ghost hunt like
they do on TV,
in a spine-chilling haunted place,
now is your chance!
Seating is limited, and C.A.S.P.E.R usually sells out. No seats can be "held."
Only those students with their tuition paid
will have a guaranteed seat.
To pay, call (630) 205-2664 with a charge card number.
