events, awards, community.

At Parapod, we believe that creators and consumers of the paranormal genre don’t get the appreciation or experiences they deserve.

We’re here to change all that.

In our three years of business, we’ve created events, experiences and excursions open to any and all fans of the paranormal. Here are just a few things we’ve done so far:

  • Led excursions through haunted locations with renowned ghost-hunting experts using high-quality paranormal investigation tools

  • Hosted seminars with influential researchers, speakers and lecturers in the UAP/UFO, ancient archeology and cryptid sectors

  • Hosted in-person community markets to provide a platform for incredible paranormal, spiritual and occult vendors

  • Presented trophies in live award ceremonies to recognize paranormal content creators and podcasters

  • Created networking opportunities through public panels featuring TV personalities, influencers and viral content creators in the genre

  • Led interactive supernatural experiences, seances and magick demonstrations in collaboration with famous psychics, mediums and witches

If you’re paranormal-obsessed like us, join our community of talented, inclusive and curious truth-seekers.
