My Name is Atena Komar. I am a paranormal investigator. I have been involved in the paranormal field much longer then I have been an investigator however, being part of a paranormal reaserch team has helped me to explore the paranormal field in a much broader scope. I have had several experiences with the paranormal as a child but the only way I knew to react then was to be frightened and keep it to myself as not to be thought of a weird or crazy. I kept this attitude through most of my childhood thinking I would eventually grow out of it. When I grew up I continued to have paranormal experiences which were on occasion disturbing and sometimes miraculously helpful. With a powerful experiences that had to do with my father's passing I found that I could not go on not knowing and decided to seek out answers.

Within a few months I have absorbed every book, article and story on topics ranging from spiritual understanding, religious studies to haunting, psychic ability and unexplained phenomenon. One fact that took hold in my studies was a story told about how magnetic energy used to be considered paranormal, Then one day someone figured out how to scientifically measure this and thus it became normal. Now it is part of all our daily life, holding the most precious of paper scraps to our refrigerator doors where they will not be missed.

As I learned more about the paranormal field through the years I realized the vast amount of paranormal activity out there that remains unexplained. I would like to be part of changing this, finding proof for what at least some of the phenomenon is or is not. I am looking to prove that it either is absolutely real, or absolutely imagined and how to tell the difference. Either way is fine as long as I can find the truth.

I consider myself sensitive on psychic levels however I look for proof on the scientific level. Psychic impressions do not constitute proof for me, through these skills are very helpful when performing investigations. I have had too many experiences throughout my life to consider myself a skeptic but I am very open-minded and willing to changing my beliefs if I see contradicting proof.

I now live in a house I consider active, several paranormal incidents took place including an apparition of a little girl in the guest room, a dark figure that has now been removed that used to stand in the bedroom doorway. More recent activities include intermittent poltergeist activities, scratching on the closet doors and banging under the bed at night, sometimes enough to wake us up. Guests who have stayed with us have reported several paranormal experiences of their own, without knowing about past activity. For the most part they do not bother us, and the incidents are infrequent.

I work in the paranormal field because I really would like to find scientific proof that validates my personal experience as well as many aspects of my professional and personal beliefs and theories about afterlife, spirits and the paranormal. I seek answers to the unknown. I seek to understand and help others understand as well. I like to figure out how things work, especially where the less tangible of human abilities and senses are concerned. 

Through the work we do in the paranormal field I have been able to further my understanding and skills in the field. My favorite field in investigating is photography and video, as this to me is the most sure way to find proof. I am also glad to help any time as I have skills in EVP recording, orb study, evidence review and as a psychic.

… After being in the field for a while I also realized the much bigger vision and significantly important work that paranormal researchers do for our community if not humanity as a whole. It is a huge task to explain the unexplained and I hope to not be a mere admirer of this great ambition, but to really play an important role in helping see it through.
