Potamac Paranormal Investigations was created in 2006 as a hobby and service to others. We investigate the areas
of Washingotn County, MD, Northern Loudan County, VA, Eatern West Virginia and Southern, PA. Our purpose is to prove or dis-prove
hauntings, and claims of the paranormal. Examples of some locations PPI has investigated are Antietam Battle
Fields, Battle of Fox Gap, Harper's Ferry and others. We welcome interested parties to have us investigate their location,
home, farm or where ever else they have that hinky feeling!
