Head Above Water
From the moment I first saw her, I never knew how much she'd have an impact on my life after everything I had been through. I had come so far away from the west coast of LA to east coast of South Carolina to escape from the toxic family I had grown up with. I never thought after being in college for 5 years this is what it truly feels like to start over again with no one even knowing who you are.

Wildfire
I have failed as a hero! I was able to save and protect this world, but I was unable to save two of the most important men in my life my brother and my uncle. I find myself so grief stricken I cannot bare to face the world or the rest of my family. I thought after rising as a hero for the last 7 years of my life and winning constant battles and fights I was strong enough for anything and anyone. But not this time since there was only so much, I could do. I was even told by my uncle that there will be times where I sometimes cannot save everybody and that shouldn’t hold me back from continuing to do this. He was a hero himself and I know heroes will even make the ultimate sacrifice which is themselves for the lives of others. But I still felt like it was my responsibility to not lose him and my brother too.

Siren
After coming to America and seeing comic books about superheroes I never would have thought that is what I would eventually become. My name is Joanna Blaze and this is my story. I come from a long-lost culture that the world once knew but eventually forgot overtime. It was a culture influenced by both the ocean and moons powers. My mother said that some of our people originated from the sea and eventually found a way to live on land; and the other half were one with the moon on land with their powers enhanced through each cycle. We were impervious from the outside world for thousands of years. Until one night during a blood moon when we are at our weakest was attacked. I made it out with the help of my oldest brother, the rest of my siblings I was unsure of, or my father. My mother wasn’t so lucky I had witnessed her murder through a hole in a wall through a secret passageway she told me to escape through. Losing her at eight years old ignited a fire in me that would rage within me for years to come. After making it to New York City I knew that my origins were still just the beginning. With my uncle becoming my guardian he knew what I was capable of with controlling the water, my strength, and most of all my song. But I knew after everything my mother told me when she had a vision of me one night that I would do great things for the world and that people will need me. It’s not just the people I will live and serve to protect but I will take vengeance on those that robbed me of everything. 8 years later now I'm know as Siren!

The Arcane Files: Ghost Hunter Blog
Everyone always loves a good ghost story, well that is something I have always enjoyed reading about and watching on TV as a kid. I couldn’t understand why I loved anything to do with the supernatural and the paranormal. I could never understand why I was so drawn to it. Even coming from an upbringing with a mix of being religious, atheist, science and logic; I was always told that these types of things don’t exist or there is always a logical explanation for them. However, I never could wrap my mind around as to what drew me in all the time into that realm. I don’t know if it was because I was always so curious of the unknown, or why there are some things in this world that cannot be explained. It almost felt like I wanted to uncover the truth for why there are things in this world that not anyone can understand. After so many years of researching, interviewing, reading and watching stuff about the paranormal over the years and as I grew into my teens, I soon stopped having a fascination with the unexplained. But I soon found myself drawn right back into this spiritual world even after it became something that I forgot existed. I stopped believing in ghosts from high school and into my college years. But then that finally changed until I finally came face to face with one during my last few college years and I knew I had no explanation for what happened to me. But I will share that story another time. I finally decided to dive deep into the spirit world, and I chose to do a few paranormal investigations in October of 2022 to see if it really is true if ghosts are real or not? I decided not to post 2 ½ years ago because this was the first time I really had a chance to do this. I have learned so much in just a short amount of time and I have met so many well respected and legendary people in the paranormal field. Where I have had a chance to learn from them and grow so much, to better understand the spirit world and know when I am ever coming across anything that is either good or evil. I am still a novice in this field but with each investigation I’ve done I continue to better fully understand this hidden world. But even doing this alone has helped me grow a lot more spiritually as well and helped me understand my own personal gifts that I have now fully embraced as well; that I hid originally and chose not to embrace for a long time. Before I get into my first paranormal investigation experience here is a little bit of history of the historic Berkeley Plantation and how the paranormal activity first occurred.

Gales of Melody
Music has played a major role in people’s lives for hundreds of years. Whether it ranges from times of celebration to worship or even joy and pleasure. But in turn music has always played a part in telling people’s own personal feelings that they wish they could let out but don’t have a way of doing so. For me music can sometimes also tell people’s stories too. Even the lyrics when it mentions certain things it becomes almost like a recording of the past. But that’s when music not only helps relieve some memories, but it can also help heal and strengthen even the darkest ones that are made. All my life I have had so many ups and downs and I know this may sound cliché like any writer or music lover would say but, music truly became my comfort to get me through some of the most painful parts of my life. But if there is one thing that I have learned is that when you reach your lowest points and when you reach rock bottom. It’s when it becomes your most pinnacle moment in life that gives you the strength to rise from the bottom to the top.

Oculus of Myrtles
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn’t my own. But a reflection of a true haunting, that has left people running and fleeing in the middle of the night. It is said to be one of the most haunted items in the world. It also has a mysterious stain that will never come off by just wiping it off. It has been researched and examined very carefully but has no explanation for how and why its forever embedded in the glass itself. The stain almost looks like a handprint as if someone who once touched left a permanent mark, or could a mysterious force be trapped within the oculus itself. But the mirror itself is only just half of the haunting at Myrtles Plantation, which is said to be one of the most haunted places in America. Which has caught the attention of paranormal researcher and journalist Jennifer Lemaire to find out if any of the legends are true. Jennifer has always been interested in the paranormal ever since her brother passed away in a drowning accident. She hoped to encounter her brother’s spirit while investigating, to show proof there still is life beyond death. But after doing at least over 50 hauntings she has yet to encounter her brother. She would be staying at the plantation until she got all the answers she needed. Upon checking into the plantation, she asked if she could stay in the most active room that has the most activity. Which would be in the main house on the second floor where the original owner’s wife and two children had died after being poisoned.
