Steven is a Haunted Survivor, Author, Speaker .Steven founded Missouri Paranormal Research and co-founded the Paranormal Task Force after living through an extreme haunting himself along with his family and friends. Steven developed the idea of The Humanistic Approach to investigation in order to help others. In July of 2007, Steven left MPR and PTF to pursue independent endeavors, but is still very proud of both organizations today. Steven's focus is on extreme, private hauntings. These investigations are typically dangerous and intense in nature with either an individual or a family endangered by a demon. He has successfully investigated and concluded many such cases because of his personal background in extreme hauntings, the network of investigators he has developed over the years and upon whom he relies for back up and/or advice, and his compassion for people. He is frequently called upon to speak about various investigations he was involved in, and he has also been a featured guest on several radio stations across the US, the UK, Canada, and parts of South Africa. Steven is not a stranger to television interviews either and has had many interviews with him published in newspapers and magazines across the US. In October of 2006, "Fear House" premiered as the first show of the third season of the Discovery Channels, "A Haunting." This show featured Steven and the story of the Union Haunting. In addition, he has been interviewed and filmed for inclusion in two paranormal documentaries. Most recently he was filmed and interviewed for a Booth Brothers documentary which is scheduled for release in October 2007 titled, "Children Of The Grave". Steven is also a published author. His short story was published by Barnes and Noble in 2006, and he is a contributor to magazines dealing with paranormal activity. He and his biographer, Laura Long-Helbig are currently working on a semi-autobiographical book that will for the first time reveal the details of Steven's and his family's personal experience with an extreme haunting.
