Some people say that our destiny is preordained. Others believe we choose our own path. I’d like to think that we are led down a certain path and then we choose in which direction to go next. It’s kind of like a GPS for the future. There is the belief that nothing happens coincidently. So if this is true, one must believe that many of our IKOPS clients are led to us by unseen forces.
This past Memorial Day weekend (2009) my interest in a paranormal investigation site was sparked for no apparent reason. I was led to one of the worst tragedies in the Tristate area, the site formerly known as the Beverly Hills Supper Club. The structure, filled with patrons out looking to have a good time, was destroyed in 1977 by a fire. The fire killed 165 people leaving many families without mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, sister and brothers.
I felt the need to research on the web in order to find out when and how it had happened. I can honestly say that I had no exposure to any information about the fire except that it happened many years ago and that my parents had almost gone there that night. Upon looking online, I found that the fire had indeed occurred on Memorial Day weekend 32 years ago. I knew there was a reason for my interest and if I had to guess as to why this place, I’d say some “thing” was leading me in that direction. Being a developing medium, it might very well be a spirit of someone who was killed in the fire.
After several communications with the property owners, my group, IKOPS, has been denied access to the property of the former Beverly Hills Supper Club. The land and its spirits may never be at rest. Such a horrific fire would certainly leave spirits in the location. Some could be lost and unsure in which way to go. Others might still linger looking for a lost family member not realizing that they too had perished.
My only wish is to help those who have died and to help their families. What a tragedy that I am unable to do so because of bureaucracy. My path may still lead me to help but for now I must wait until that time arrives
