We've been preserving, protecting, and sharing these important artifacts for decades, but we need your help to continue our mission and open a brick and mortar museum.By becoming a member of the Newkirk Museum of the Paranormal, you'll gain exclusive access to incredible perks like exclusive Haunted Objects episodes and bonus content, live-streamed experiments and investigations, artifact unboxing videos, invitations to members-only events in the world's most haunted locations, loads of museum goodies in the mail, and more awesome stuff. Plus, you'll get the satisfaction of knowing you're helping make history in the process.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/posts/60039576" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Click here for a look at some of our best members-only content!</a><h2 style="">ABOUT THE MUSEUM</h2>You might have seen us on television shows like Disney's&nbsp;<a href="https://gregorynewkirk.com/projects/the-world-according-to-jeff-goldblum/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">The World According to Jeff Goldblum</a>, Discovery+'s&nbsp;<a href="https://gregorynewkirk.com/projects/kindred-spirits/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Kindred Spirits</a>, Animal Planet's&nbsp;<a href="https://gregorynewkirk.com/projects/finding-bigfoot/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Finding Bigfoot</a>, or our award-winning Amazon Prime series&nbsp;<a href="http://www.hellier.tv" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Hellier</a>, but when we’re not actively investigating the strange and the unexplained, we’re tracking down and acquiring rare artifacts from the history of parapsychology, ufology, and witchcraft, as well as items from the most famous (and infamous) paranormal cases.Some key pieces in the collection include <a href="https://youtu.be/gYz2u0t7us8?si=3RQn8IW_DiGR7w1n" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">lab testing samples of the dress worn by Betty Hill </a>during her 1961 alien abduction, genuine artifacts <a href="https://youtu.be/TnjsEuHo6k4?si=_SQdfwgpR40_hZZU" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">from The Amityville Horror </a>case, files and <a href="https://youtu.be/IF_yeXe_pMo?si=M0imzwHiyf-65Hr0" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">metamaterials from secretive Area 51 projects</a>, the research archives of<a href="https://youtu.be/mtZ6cjZ_tl4?si=n44EPb-w9pEseDGx" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> influential Loch Ness investigators</a>, and the effigy known as the “Crone of the Catskills”, a frightening and mysterious carving which has spawned internet legend <a href="http://planetweird.tv" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">as covered in our feature length documentary The Unbinding.</a>Since 2013, we’ve been sharing these pieces both online and with the world's only Traveling Museum of the Paranormal &amp; Occult, bringing historically-important objects to millions of people eager to learn the truth about genuine paranormal research: you should always choose curiosity over fear.But sharing important artifacts with the world is only part of our mission - we’re also conducting groundbreaking research on paranormal phenomena. Five years ago we began work on THE INITIATIVE, a groundbreaking project that is poised to change the way people investigate the paranormal forever. In 2020, we launched “The Haunted Ramen” project, a massive interactive experiment that aimed to haunt packages of ramen noodles - a joke about <a href="https://youtu.be/fJJ0s0eliHc?si=RYVGT9BlseHPe-iB" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">the rash of fake “dybbuk boxes” littering ghost hunting videos</a> - and were more successful than we could have imagined.<h2 style="">YOUR MEMBERSHIP FUNDS</h2>We’re making history with the museum, but our journey is just beginning.
