CLYDE — What is a ghost? Gene Lafferty of Buckeye State Paranormal and Haunting Investigators, or BSPHI, defines “ghost” as “an apparition or supernatural entity, typically the visual appearance of a deceased human’s soul.” But he adds no one knows for sure, nor are there any ghost-hunting “experts.”

The Clyde Heritage League invited Lafferty to set up his equipment March 22 in the former home of General James McPherson in Clyde. That afternoon, he spoke to the public about his organization and some of the investigations members have done. About 80 people filled the meeting room at the library.

“I was so amazed at the number of people. It was an interesting program,” said librarian Jill McCullough.

During the presentation, Lafferty said “ghost hunting” is a hobby of BSPHI members. The nonprofit group includes more than 50 people who do not charge for their services. He said their goal is the preservation and documentation of history.
