In today’s Duluth News Tribune reporter Christa Lawler interviews Iron Range ghost hunters, the aptly named Northern Minnesota Paranormal Investigators. As the story states these guys have been around quite a while, before it was cool as they say. The Hibbing Daily Tribune did a story on these same guys and was subject to a lengthy letter to the editor from a property owner who was tired of the paranormal investigators’ trampling over their land. They said we need to stop encouraging them.
I am reminded of a classified ad I saw in the now defunct Ripsaw weekly in Duluth for the Northern Minnesota Sasquatch Research something or other. I was a newspaper reporter then and decided to call the number to see if there were any Sasquatch by Hibbing. Not in a long time, I learned. No story. The experience led me to write an unpublished short fiction piece called “A Sasquatch, North of the Laurentian Divide.” I need to dust off that sucker and send out some queries. There might be a market now.
