Ashley Darkwood - Paranormal Investigator
I was born in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England. From the age of 5, my mother took me to Wycombe Spiritualist Church. By my teenage years, I was doing psychic readings for school friends and went on to develop mediumship. By my late teens, I was already being asked to investigate what was reported to be hauntings in people's homes. However, I noticed that many of these reports and phenomena were not paranormal and had more innocent origins. I grew up studying Martial Arts, and gained a keen interest in Eastern philosophy.
By the time paranormal TV shows took off, I had already spent many years working for the NHS in acute medical care and for Social Services in community psychiatric care, gaining skills and insights which would prove invaluable in assisting clients whose diagnoses might present as experiences likened to the paranormal.
As a paranormal investigator, I set myself apart from ghost hunters. I'm critical of many ghost hunt gadgets due to their fallible nature within a genuine investigation. I am not interested in proving the existence of paranormal phenomena. I am more motivated by my own interest in the causes of these phenomena and helping clients find peace, understanding or resolution of their experiences. I go into a case "sober" not as a medium. I have witnessed many mediums give entirely false information during investigations which has caused the client a great deal of distress and anxiety.
I have gained vast experience in dealing with negative energies and entities. I have developed a comprehensive course on these matters. This is not open to the general public.
I have appeared in print, on radio and TV as a paranormal researcher offering analysis and opinion., performing both psychic mediumship and paranormal investigation around the UK, New York & New Jersey USA.
I no longer perform mediumship in private sittings or in church or centre settings. Since the advent of social media I have seen a worrying devolution in morals and ethics within the movement. My personal ethics are not inline with the ever growing financial motivation and ego of psychics, mediums and their governing bodies. I do not believe that belief systems should come with a price list.
I'm currently developing a screenplay based on true paranormal accounts.
