The Brinkerhoff House Ghost Hunt with Celebrity Guest John Zaffis

November 12, 2022 @ 6:00 pm 10:00 pm EST

East Fishkill Historical Society and Full Moon Paranormal presents the Brinkerhoff House paranormal investigation featuring SYFY’s Haunted Collector John Zaffis

Want to explore an 1785 dutch farmhouse & carriage barn, ice house, and an 1820 one room school with a SPECIAL CELEBRITY GUEST? Our featured guest speaker, John Zaffis, will be joining us on this epic ghost hunt!

John Zaffis is considered one of the foremost authorities in paranormal investigation today, with more than 40 years of experience studying and investigating the field. Studying under his aunt and uncle, Lorraine and Ed Warren, broadened Zaffis’ expertise beyond ghost hunting to also include demonology and cases of possession and exorcism. Over the years, Zaffis has collected hundreds of infested items that are currently housed for safe keeping at the John Zaffis Paranormal Museum. He wrote and starred in the 2010 documentary Museum of the Paranormal, which gives the viewer a tour of his museum and the stories behind some of the objects. Zaffis was the host of the SyFy television series Haunted Collector from 2011-2013 and has been featured on Travel Channel’s Ghost Adventures, A&E’s Ghost Hunters, Discovery Channel’s A Haunting in Connecticut and Little Lost Souls as well as Unsolved Mysteries. John will have his books available for purchase and signing.

Also meet Tim Dalton and his famous haunted doll Bella! This is one event you do not want to miss!
