This Special FX Team Hoaxes Paranormal Activity at Haunted Locations, and Business is Booming
"Haunted hotels" are getting more exciting.
Paranormal investigators have a rough gig. Not only is it pretty tough to catch genuine anomalies on film, but once you do, you have to hope it will stand up to the scrutiny of your peers, not to mention face the unwavering cynicism of Skeptics. Well, ghost hunters’ jobs just got way harder thanks to a new professional service that promises to provide untraceable hoaxing of paranormal activity.
Mike Bisch runs Kentucky Special FX, a company that specializes in building movie prop replicas, haunted house attractions, and realistic animatronics to name a few things. According to Bisch, custom orders account for nearly 70% of his company’s revenue, and they’re responsible for the special effects in the 7th Street Haunt, a highly-reviewed haunted house with over $850,000 in movie grade illusions at work.

It’s safe to say that when it comes to scaring the pants off people, Mike Bisch knows his stuff. But when he’s not creating replicas of Ghostbusters II‘s dancing toaster or rigging up terrifying animatronics in theatrical haunted houses, Bisch offers another service that’s sure to scare ghost hunters in a much different way: professional paranormal hoaxes in the legendary haunted location of the buyer’s choice… and according to Bisch, he’s already pulled it off over twenty times.
In a package named “Real Ghost And Unexplained Phenomenon And Apparitions”, Bisch offers up the covert operations of he and his team as they set to work creating everything from equipment malfunctions, sudden temperature fluctuations, and appearing and disappearing apparitions for unwitting ghost hunters in haunted buildings. They claim they can even make an entire group of people feel ill at the same time.
