Amy Bruni is a good example of what happens when a hobby turns into a passion, which in turn becomes a way of life. Like many in the paranormal field, Amy grew up in a haunted house. Yet, unlike most in that situation, Amy's family embraced it. Most recently, Amy has been using her connections in the field to conduct important research on the nature of group dynamics in the paranormal, and she's also begun lecturing on ghosts and the supernatural. Her goal is to work across the paranormal community with the hope that serious field research can occur and then be shared within the society

Adam Berry is an actor, singer, and paranormal investigator. In 2006, Adam's interest in the paranormal peaked when he experienced some strange supernatural activity in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. He had experienced ghostly encounters as a child but having these encounters as an adult turned Adam's slight interest in paranormal investigating into a passion. In early 2010, Adam was blessed with the opportunity to put his investigative skills to the test on Syfy's reality series, Ghost Hunters Academy, where hopefuls competed for the chance to become the next member of the TAPS team. Adam was the last man standing, beating out seven other cadets for a spot, and he is currently an active member of the team.
