SPI Covers Arizona!

Sonoran Paranormal Investigations, Inc. provides investigative teams covering the entire state of Arizona with three cooperative teams located in Tucson, Phoenix, and the Verde Valley area. Members of SPI come from all areas of Arizona including but not limited to: Sierra Vista, Benson, Tucson, Casa Grande, Chandler, Phoenix, Flagstaff, Queen Creek, Show Low, Glendale, Camp Verde, Mesa, Globe, and Scottsdale.

Truly Scientific

Sonoran Paranormal Investigations, Inc. dedicates itself not only to individual investigations of claims of paranormal activity but is also among the handful of groups worldwide utilizing data obtained during investigations as part of long term studies. SPI believes that only through studying phenomena over long periods will it be possible to eventually craft legitimate theories of haunting phenomena. After each investigation all results from experiments and environmental readings are retained and analyzed whether regarded as "paranormal" or natural. Over time this data analysis will enable SPI to form sound theories and explanations for haunting phenomena as well as show trends influencing paranormal activity or perceptions of paranormal activity. Likewise, such in depth analysis will allow SPI to show existing ideas on paranormal activity, generally handed down as anecdotes, as either valid or invalid based upon true scientific inquiry and stringent analysis.

Unlike many groups in the field, SPI does not adhere to an "investigate and forget" mindset, but rather an investigate, correlate, analyze, and theorize mindset making SPI true members of the scientific community rather than hobbyists.

Charging for Investigations is Unethical!

SPI NEVER charges for a paranormal investigation! We at SPI use our own equipment, our own time, and make our own travel arrangements - this is all at our own expense. We do not accept outside donations. We do not perform cleansings or blessing but can direct clients to respectable spiritual or religious practitioners who may be able to assist them when necessary.

SPI - Arizona's Leading Paranormal Investigators!

Sonoran Paranormal Investigations (SPI) is a paranormal investigation group located in and serving the state of Arizona. We have members from Flagstaff to Tucson and we are able to meet the needs of families and businesses throughout the entire state.

In 2007, we were proud to become TAPS Family Members. You may be aware of TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) and TAPS Family from the Sci-Fi channel series Ghost Hunters.

Becoming involved with the TAPS Family not only ensures that we are doing the right thing - but it keeps us doing the right thing. The TAPS Family affiliation provides SPI and our clientele with access to some of the best and brightest in the field and ensures that we have access to the latest information and knowledge of the latest technology available.

Our unique approach to professional investigation has set SPI apart among investigative groups. We have been called in by homeowners and business owners but also by government agencies including historic sites, local and state government (including police), and the United States Army.
