Ryan Buell founded the Penn State Paranormal Research Society, now the Paranormal Research Society, in 2001 at the age of 19. The Paranormal Research Society began as a student club and today is made up of Penn State undergraduate and graduate students as well as various Penn State faculty and staff. PRS is comprised of two departments: Field Investigation and Research and Parapsychology and Laboratory Research. PRS is based in State College, Pennsylvania. Buell and his investigative team travel the United States assisting clients who feel they are dealing with disturbing paranormal activity in their homes or businesses. Some of these cases can be seen on the A&E Television Network reality show Paranormal State.
Eppig: What was your first experience with the paranormal field? Was it a personal experience, a book, or a person that influenced you?
Buell: When I was very young, I experienced something that was terrifying. I tried to tell my parents but they were understandably skeptical. For me, I locked it up inside until I entered my teens when I was ready to start looking for answers. Along the way, I learned about paranormal investigators such as Ed and Lorraine Warren and Hans Holzer.
Eppig: How old were you when you became interested in the paranormal field?
Buell: I began pursuing the paranormal when I was fifteen.
