On this edition of After Hours AM we talk with from A&E's Ghost Hunters cast members.

RICHEL STRATTON: Paranormal investigator Richel Stratton has been ghost hunting for a decade, with most of her investigations conducted independently. She joined her most recent team in Illinois two years ago and has participated in over 40 investigations with the group ranging from private residences to historic haunted locations like the once-spectacular Mineral Springs Hotel, former psychiatric hospital Ashmore Estates, and the storied Malvern Manor.

As an investigator, Richel believes there are things out there we don’t fully understand, but she needs hard evidence to prove a haunting is real. When she isn’t investigating, Richel is a dental hygienist and mom to two young boys.

BRIAN MURRAY: Former Marine Corps Platoon Sergeant Brian Murray is a paranormal investigator on the “Ghost Hunters” team. Brian uses his military experience to bring an organized, structured approach to each investigation, from creating a plan and assigning tasks to overseeing “the mission” from start to finish. Brian founded his most recent team, Riverbend Paranormal, in 2007 and has conducted more than 200 investigations, many of them in private homes.
Because of his day job in construction, Brian has solid knowledge of foundations, buildings and plumbing, allowing him to quickly assess and debunk structural situations that a homeowner might believe to be supernatural. Brian values the importance of evidence review as an arduous multistep process and believes that “in this business, nobody has all the right answers except for the dead themselves.”
