Paranormal Consulting & Investigations of New Jersey
NJ’s Best Paranormal Investigation Team!
Joanne Emmons, Founder
Occupation: Engineer - email: joanne@pcinj.org
Joanne became interested in the paranormal after her family moved into a house that they shared with a poltergeist in New Hope, Pennsylvania when she was ten. She has been a student of the field ever since, and believes that as much as we think we know, there is even more that we have not yet begun to comprehend.
Joanne started PCINJ in 2011, after working as a Case Manager and leading investigations for another team. As a result of that experience she wanted to create a team that not only investigated hauntings, but was also trained to help clients deal with and resolve the many types of paranormal issues that are sometimes encountered.

Email: kelly@pcinj.org
Kelly has had an interest in the paranormal since childhood. She has a fascination with any and all things that many find unexplainable. Reading, exploring, and attempting to find explanations for the various problems people have with the spirit world is very satisfying for her. Her desire to understand the realm of the paranormal has led her to join the PCINJ team to learn more and be able to help people experiencing the unexplained.
On May 12th, 2021, PCINJ lost our dearest Rick. After an amazing eight years with our team, Rick was very much a part of our family, and will always be. He was always there when needed to help a client, or to just spend a fun night hanging out in a dusty old haunted location with us. Hotel California, Baby!
Dayna V. - Case Manager (in training), Investigator
As a little girl, Loren was teased by her family for being so fearful of "scary things" especially the dark, which, in retrospect, is ironic... It wasn't until her pre-teen years that Loren would experience something that would change everything; she had her first encounter with a spirit. From that point on, she researched and read every Paranormal book she could get her hands on that would possibly answer her questions.
In the late 80s, Ed and Lorraine Warren lectured at her college. It was then Loren heard her first recorded EVP. She realized that this was to be her journey. In 2009 she was invited to join New Jersey Paranormal Research and was

Bio coming soon!
Dayna has been intrigued with all things paranormal after having her first experience at a very young age. In addition, having had a grandmother who fled her Verona, NJ, home in the 1930's, due to a demonic haunting, was enough to start her on a quest to learn more. She began reading books on various paranormal subjects throughout the years. However, after having many more personal paranormal experiences during her lifetime she thought it was time to take the next step in her research and become a paranormal investigator. Dayna is proud to be part of such a dedicated and passionate group of paranormal researchers. When not investigating with her PCINJ team, Dayna works as the president and founder of her nonprofit foundation, Dayna's Pink Wishes (www.daynaspinkwishes.org).
James grew up in northern New Jersey and has been interested in the paranormal since he was young. Having seen spirits throughout his whole life, the paranormal always intrigued him. James does not consider himself physic, but rather very “sensitive”. James took his first paranormal course in college and realized there was little scientific information on the subject, which piqued his interest even more. He always knew there was something else besides

James is a professional photographer, so his understanding of light, shadow, and photographic manipulation, allows him to be able to validate or debunk evidence that is caught on film.

In 2018, Loren was asked to join Paranormal Consulting & Investigations of NJ. "I feel incredibly blessed to be part of an amazing team who I consider to be an extension of my own family. ~I will never give up my search for the ghosts in the halls."
Kathy B. - Investigator
When Kathy's Dad died in 1986 she had occurrences for years that sparked her interest and she has been searching for knowledge and answers since. She is trying to gain as much experience and understanding in the paranormal that she can in order to try and help others who don't know where to turn.

Miss you, Kathy!!!
Investigative Support from the Other Side
Rick has been interested in the paranormal ever since he was a little kid. He had an experience as a kid of hearing a voice from a place where nobody stood. This both scared and has intrigued him ever since. Rick joined PCINJ after PCINJ conducted an investigation of his current home where EVP picked up disturbing voices. His fascination of what was found brought out the retired law enforcement side of him by digging in and finding out what is really going on "out there." Rick is also is a huge horror movie fan.
