Anne Palagruto - Founder and Co-Director  In 1998 Anne started internet group Ectoplasm Cafe which currently has 785 members. Shortly afterwards she became a member of South Jersey Ghost Research. During part of her time with SJGR she was the photo editor for The Shadowlands. Anne became co-director of SJGR along with Dave Juliano. After several years in that position and dealing with so many clients who had children that were experiencing paranormal activity, she stepped down from that position to start SJGR Kids Club, a website specifically designed to help children who were afraid of what they were experiencing and to answer their questions. During this time she also created a website to help people who need help understanding their psychic abilities. The Help for Sensitives site has a hotline which is made up of volunteers who are available via email and instant messaging to talk with people who are having trouble understanding their new found abilities. In November 2004, she resigned her position as Community Relations Director with SJGR in order to form SJGR Kids club, which had evolved into Junior Ghosthunters International. In November 2004 she left SJGR and formed the Philadelphia Institute for Paranormal Research in order to conduct research in areas such as video and EVP. PIPR works very closely with Soultrackers International. She was featured in an episode of MSNBC Investigates entitled True Believers and has been interviewed for numerous articles in newspapers such as the Burlington County Times, The Currier Post and the Roxboro Review. Anne is the author of two books; Deliver US from Evil - Prayers for Spiritual Warfare and Forensic Ghostology. Both are available on Ebay and from TPA Publishing.
