Kenya & Tanzania - 2018

When I was a kid, my grandpa decided to take my Dad’s side of 16 to Kenya and Tanzania. We travelled through the East coast of Africa for 21 days. As an avid animal lover growing up, I was quite ecstatic for my first safari and trip to Africa. My expectations were set low as guides and friends kept telling us, you have to go in with low expectations as some people make this trip and see nothing. Luckily, that was not the case for us. On our excursions through the Maasai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro crater, we were able to see the Big Five and about every other animal you could see. Of the many unique encounters, these are some of the ones that stick out. A jaw-dropping scene to witness was a pride of twelve lions, resting under the shade of an acacia tree after their hunt. We also got to see two alpha male lions resting in the plains of the Serengeti.

Another rare sight I was fortunate to experience was walking up to some of the only white rhinos in the world. While we were driving through Kenya, we came across the ranger car guarding the two white rhinos. As a critically endangered species, the rhinos are watched 24 hours by 4-10 guards armed with AK-47s. We were able to pay the rangers and they walked us from our vehicles to the middle of the plains where the rhinos were peacefully grazing. I hold this dear to me as the rhinos we saw have unfortunately passed away.

Another serene experience was driving behind a herd of giraffes as they ran for shelter during a lightning storm. The same storm stranded us in the Maasai Mara for five hours till around 10 pm as the bridge out of the reserve flooded from the heavy rainfall. We eventually had to walk through the jungle, back to our camping site in the dark, leaving the vehicles behind. That was a frightening experience, as you never know what could be slithering around you or lurking in the bushes.

Another highlight of the trip was these baby elephants that were learning how to use their trunks. We watched for about 30 minutes as the calf was twirling, waving, and playing with its trunk.

Another cool sight was seeing two cheetah brothers decimate an antelope they just killed. I did not include the video as it is quite gory, but the cheetahs are pictured as they sit post-meal in the Serengeti. It is absurd to think these beasts are less than ten feet away, and I am just a sitting duck in a jeep with a lot of wide entry points. Despite this, the animals stay unbothered. We ended off our trip at a restaurant called “Carnivore” in Nairobi. My mother, being born in Kenya, told us many stories of this place as they once sold all kinds of meat like lion, giraffe, zebra, etc. They still operate but due to laws only sell things like zebra, ostrich, crocodile, ox balls, and your usual meats. I thought I was adventurous and decided to try everything they brought to the table... unsurprisingly, this ended poorly as I had terrible food poisoning the next day, perfect time for the flight back home.

Paranormal Disturbance in Oak Park

Date to be there: January 5, 2019 / Time to be there: 2pm.  Address to be at: xxxxxxxxxx Sacramento, CA. Occupant: Ms X.   Confidential Investigation.  Activity: Daughter being attacked by a demonic force. Daughter sees man in hallway, the man is a dark shadow. The man tells her to hurt herself and tells her many terrible things. Emergency investigation.

Deanna Jaxine Stinson – HPI Co-Owner and Psychic Medium did a walk through.  Deanna felt a feeling of sadness.  Deanna felt that the daughter that the demonic force is focused on is an empath and there may be another entity trying to relay a message to her.  As an empath she is a beacon of light that esoteric entities are attracted to.  As an empath a demonic force may be utilizing her energy for its own dark agenda.  Later on in the investigation Deanna picked up on a side bed by the bedroom window.  Deanna felt that whoever sleeps on that side bed may be receiving nightmares or vivid dreams.  Deanna felt we could capture an EVP at this location.  We tried a few EVP sessions, no luck, so we decided to go outside of the bedroom window, because Deanna still felt there was something there.  I managed to obtain an EVP of a man saying: “what do you want me to say?”  Very clear EVP, Class A.  Deanna and I, believe there is portal in this area.  Oak Park is very old and has a lot of history, some of that history is very negative, such as murders.  

Some Negative History in Oak Park In fact the Oak Park Rapist aka Marcus Thomas roamed this area.  He is the brother of Miami Vice star Philip Michael Thomas and is serving a 27 year sentence at California Soledad Prison.  The fear, pain and horror that the Oak Park Rapist caused, lingers in the atmosphere as residual negative energy.  Another monster was the Homicidal Handyman of Oak Park aka Morris Solomon Jr.  He was your local serial killer.  Deanna picked up on the name Daniel who was addicted to alcohol that was haunting this family.  She saw that he wore a 80s style black leather jacket and hung outside close to the bedroom window.  Deanna did some research and she did indeed find a Daniel, who was an alcoholic and drug addict.  This Daniel died in 2007.  

We learned that the daughter is also cutting herself, because the demonic entity is telling her to hurt herself.  Deanna felt strong negative energy in the bathroom and then it dawned on us, that the daughter may be cutting herself in the bathroom.  We suggested a full submersion baptism (a basic form of exorcism) to get rid of the attachment and the daughter was adamant not to receive a baptism. Deanna conducted a metaphysical cleansing of this home and I conducted a Roman Catholic house blessing.   Since the daughter refused the baptism, the entity most likely is still there and the house blessing is a temporary fix.  When we were conducting our investigation, we did obtain a far away sounding “no” EVP.   

Below is my true encounter of 2 werewolves..read on…. What is Lycanthropy you may ask? According to The American Journal of Psychiatry Vol. 134, No. 10. published in October 1977 it states: 

“Lycanthropy, a psychosis in which the patient has delusions of being a wild animal (usually a wolf), has been recorded since antiquity. The Book of Daniel describes King Nebuchadnezzar as suffering from depression that deteriorated over a seven-year period into a frank psychosis at which time he imagined himself a wolf. Among the first medical descriptions were those of Paulus Aegineta during the later days of the Roman Empire. In his description of the symptom complex, Aegineta made reference to Greek mythology in which Zeus turned King Lycaon of Arcadia into a raging wolf. Thereafter, references to lycanthropy appeared in the ancient literature. Many medieval theologians envisioned lycanthropy as a consequence of the evil eye.Delusions of being a wolf or some other feared animal are universal and, although rare in the industrialized countries, still occur in China, India, Africa, and Central and South America. The animals in the delusioned transformation include leopards, lions, elephants, crocodiles, sharks, buffalo, eagles, and serpents.Not infrequently, bizarre and chaotic sexuality is expressed in a primitive way through the lycanthropic symptom complex. Patients whose internal fears exceed their coping mechanisms may externalize them via projection and constitute a serious threat to others. Throughout the ages, such individuals have been feared because of their tendencies to commit bestial acts and were themselves hunted and killed by the populace. Many of these people were paranoid schizophrenics.” 

Thoughts of werewolf movies may come to your mind from: The Boy Who Cried Wolf, Blood, Bad Moon, The Curse of the Werewolf, Death Moon, Face of the Screaming Werewolf, Teen Wolf, The Wolfman, Project: Metal Beast – DNA Overlord and Ginger Snaps. But, we’re not here to talk about good werewolf horror movies, we are here to talk about two real werewolves! Lolita Moonshadow and Katrina Kanine! 

I get a call from Lolita Moonshadow and Katrina Kanine. They are self-proclaimed werewolves. What the? Okay Lolita and Katrina, where can I meet you at? We first met at the Avid Reader at Broadway and crossed the street over to Starbucks for a refreshing frappachino. Lolita and Katrina are cousins, they claim to be of Romanian descent. They claim to have a long history of werewolves in their family. I asked them, how do you know you are werewolves, besides the Romanian descent and thinking your family members are werewolves? They said they both crave raw meat. When a dog, cat or a rabbit crosses their paths, they have the urge to ‘chase’. They feel domination over men, physically and mentally. When the full moon rises, they feel the urge to hunt. They must suppress their dark desires. They said they have a lot of dark desires within their inner souls. 

I asked them to elaborate on their dark desires and they asked me if I ever saw An American Werewolf in London and they left it at that. I pondered…do they have the desire to kill? They both feel they have a chemical imbalance during a full moon, but feel they have everything under control. They both showed me their unusual long canines. I don’t know if they were unusually long, or if they stood out more. They said that during a full moon, they get more hair on their arms and legs. They said that they have a keen sense of smell and after they get used to my smell, they would be able to sniff me out a block away. 

Katrina took my arm and dug in a bit with her fingernails and looked at me and said…”Paul, I have a hunger!” Okay, okay, just as long as it is not me! We discussed if silver bullets can kill werewolves and they said that a real werewolf can be killed by any bullet, that is a myth. They told me that their eyesight changes over to seeing everything in black and white during a full moon, they feel greater strength and are quite agile. They claim that if they are with their boyfriends during a full moon, their sexual desires are greatly heightened and their boyfriends are not able to handle their wild frenzy. They describe it as throwing a bull carcass in the Amazon river and watching piranhas go into a feeding frenzy. They said that their love life had dwindled, when anytime their lovers discovered the true essence of their beings. They said that last week, their boyfriends left them and they are single again.

At this point of time, I noticed a bead of sweat dripping from my brow. I knew I better end this interview as quickly as I started it. I noticed that Lolita had purchased a werewolf book from Avid Reader. Yes! These girls were truly into lycanthropy. Before, I left, we discussed werewolf sightings in Placerville and the Sierras. They said, that at times they feel a calling for the Sierras to find their brethren. What is so unusual, after I met them, I have been contacted by another werewolf girl in Fremont and I plan to interview her too. She claims that there are werewolf sightings in Antioch. She has a very interesting story to tell also! When I stood up from Starbucks, both were eyeing me strangely and both stood around me, as if they were blocking me from the entrance. Lolita grabbed my shoulder and said…”Paul, remember one thing, doctor up our photo, we do not want to be identified for this article and make sure not to identify us in anyway in this article. We know where you live!” I looked back at Lolita and Katrina and said…”sure, no problem, no problem at all!”

As I left Starbucks, I thought how safer it would be to just hunt ghosts, they don’t make threats! Before I close this article, I met Tanya Filer, a clerk at my local Bel-Air and she told me about an abandoned house in Elk Grove that she wants me to investigate. The house has been abandoned for 7 years, because no one will purchase the home, its reputed to be haunted. The story goes that a builder of the house, killed himself with a nail gun. People who have entered the home, claim that the phantom builder looks at them and is holding a nail gun in his hand. Okay, Tanya, where is this house? I am willing and ready to investigate! As I rode home tonight on the lightrail, Julie Surjan a good friend of mine, who knows I am a ghost hunter, had me all hooked on her story. She said, that a strange thing happened to her last night. She was watching TV and saw something at the corner of her eye, it was dark and black. I asked…”was it a shadow person?” She looks at me and laughs…”no, it was a black widow spider! I had the hardest time killing the thing!”
