My name is Shannon McCabe. Let me tell you a little about myself... I am a
singer, event planner, actress, paranormalist, writer, teacher, wife to Bruce
Kubel, and mother to my poodle, Rocket.
I have touched upon the entertainment world, not only with singing, but in
various TV shows, news segments, and my event planning. If you look real
hard you will see me in Nash Bridges. (Yes, Don Johnson is just as good
looking in person!)
I became interested in the paranormal, when I was a child, around 10 years of
age. I used to imagine that I had a ghost that would move my doll & unicorn
collection around. I am sure now that it was my overactive imagination... Or
was it?
23 years later I saw a full body apparition at a building in Sacramento and it
solidified my belief in life after death. Here is what happened:
I was coming into work, unusually early for me, when I parked my car on the
third floor of the parking garage. I got out of my car and walked toward the door
leading to the elevators. I saw a man wearing a Kelly green polo shirt and dark
slacks. He had that over 35 hair-do that men have, you know the one with hair
all around the back and sides but none on top... I love me a bald man... Anyway,
he was standing near the door staring off into space. I said "hello" and headed
for the door. He did not respond. I found this to be quite odd so naturally I
looked to my right to look at him again. He was GONE! I walked to the area he
stood in and looked all around. He had vanished into thin air! Now you may be
thinking I am crazy, but I do have the validation you've been waiting for...
I proceeded into my building and ran next door to the hair salon. I told my
good friend, Yolanda, what had just happened and she was a little confused. We
went back up to the garage and I retraced the steps. There was no where that
'Stan' could have gone. I call him 'Stan' now because of the many people that
have seen him, he needed a name. I digress...
After Yolanda and I went back to work, I couldn't help but second guess myself.
I had been on many paranormal investigations with my group, H.P.I.
Paranormal, but had never seen an actual apparition. A couple of days went by
and I had all but dismissed 'Stan', when Yolanda comes running over to my shop
and says "you are NOT going to believe this!" "What?" I replied. "This lady just
came in the shop, to have her hair done, and we asked her if she 'needed her
parking validated.' The lady said 'No way, I don't park in your parking garage,
it's haunted!'" "Haunted? Could you explain what you mean?" replied Yolanda.
"There is this guy that appears on the third floor of the garage, he just stares at
you and he wears a green shirt! Then he disappears!"
Well, holy *&^%^!!! I guess I got my validation!
After seeing that full body apparition, my curiosity went into overdrive. I
needed to understand what ghosts are. Is there an afterlife? I delved deeper into
my studies with H.P.I. Which lead me to the great Psychic, Nancy Bradley.
I had picked up one of her books "Gold Rush Ghosts", at a local haunt called the
Diamond Springs hotel, and enjoyed it throughly. I enjoyed it so much that I
made a ghost tour out of it on many of the locations in Placerville, CA. Nancy
got word of this and gave me a "who the hell do you think you are?" kind of call...
And I told her what a big fan I was, and how I was selling her books to the tour
guests, now we have a little TV show together called Ghost Girls on Ghost
Channel TV. She's a bit of a softy.
I have been a ghost hunter and the owner of H.P.I. International since 2004 but
have about 15 years of paranormal experience. Not only am I the owner of HPI
(with over 550+ members and another branch in Michigan and San Luis
Obispo, New Mexico, Fresno), but I have written articles for Haunted America
Tours, and have been on many paranormal radio shows. I was lucky enough to
be involved with Two Four Productions UK - "Conversations With a Serial
Killer, Richard Trenton Chase". I was also fortunate enough to go to Chichen
Itza, Mexico with Showtime Television for the show "Bullshit" with Penn & Teller
that aired July 2009. The show is on the incredible subject of "2012"! This
season I'll be on Monster Quest hunting for the _______ Ha ha! Can't tell you
yet!
