John Silveira Founder/Lead Investigator Above the Realm. 43 year old investigator from Colchester, CT. John founded Above The Realm after many years of personally experiencing paranormal activity. Having been personally "haunted" and followed by a poltergeist for over a decade, it was suggested that it may very well be his deceased father. John's curiosity and need-to-know-the-truth nature instilled in him the determination to research, study and start an investigative group. He is also experienced in Ouija Board séances and other forms of spirit contact. His spiritual beliefs allow John a deep understanding into the reasons for the possible existence of spirit energies. Being a former real estate agent, John is versed in the structure and systems of many types of construction, aiding in the determination of "house noises".
