My Special Guest Is William Abbitt From WTCW Paranormal

On Halloween of 2021, William Abbitt and 3 of his childhood friends decided to set out to see if the, often sensationalised, paranormal industry truly was as real as they say it is. Thus, the WTCW Paranormal Investigation Firm was born with the goal of showing the truth and nothing but the truth behind the life of a paranormal investigator. Since the formation of the group, they have conducted over 35 official paranormal investigations across the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, encompassing house calls, commercial businesses, historic museums, and so much more!

In this episode, you will be able to: 1. Explore some of the locations, cryptids and folklore of the Hampton Road area.

2. Discover more about WTCW Paranormal.
