Casey Goodwin
Founder
As a teenager, I was drawn to the mysterious and the obscure, spending long evenings exploring abandoned homes with sordid pasts, as well as other notorious locations in and around his home in Southern California. After relocating to Oregon in 1994, my interest in the unexplained continued to flourish, eventually leading me to co-found Oregon Paranormal in 2009, with the express purpose of conducting related exploration in and around the Pacific Northwest through data collection and analysis, historical research, documentation, education, and collaborative efforts with like-minded teams and independent researchers. Through my work, carried out with both sensitivity and respect, I have helped many families and individuals struggling to comprehend the oft incomprehensible.

Nikki Van Ryn
Investigator
Field Researcher
Ever since I was a child I have been interested in the paranormal. I found myself captivated by other peoples’ personal accounts as well as spooky story books and television shows. While I am a firm believer, I find it extremely important to study, analyze, and question all possibilities. Having inexplicable experiences of my own, I seek to educate and help those who seek answers, and fully research what I cannot explain. I am dedicated to developing conclusions and obtaining results for the community, my team, the field, and myself.

Kala Ojala was born and raised in Oregon, currently living in a rural country town. Growing up traveling with her adventurous grandparents, she was able to visit some of the most historical locations across the US. Mostly intrigued by abandoned towns, also known as “Ghost Towns”, Kala and her grandfather would curiously explore various abandoned mines and buildings left behind in the mountains and deserts, thriving to learn the history of every location.
Today, Kala is the founder of Crossroads Independent Paranormal Society. She is a Historical Researcher, Independent Consultant, and Paranormal Investigator. Kala has been interested and involved in the paranormal field for over 15 years. Due to many loved ones passing, she became more curious of the paranormal world and that opened her up to the possibilities of connecting with the other side. Kala's goals are to continue her research as a productive member of the paranormal community, adventuring out into the unknown, and researching and uncovering the hidden secrets that history has left behind.
