Demon Street USA authors and experienced ghost hunters, David M. Rountree and Robbie Lunt, write about their experiences fighting demonic forces attacking a Gainesville, Florida resident being abused by evil forces. Reportedly, Penelope’s home was beset by forces beyond her control—from windows that open by themselves and rusty locks unlatching after being shut for years to dancing stoves and phantom parties. But, more alarming, was the physical abuse Penelope herself was experiencing.

These incidences only a few of the tricks the demonic forces have up their sleeve. It became Rountree and Lunt’s goal to exorcise the demon before it did further harm, by utilizing their own personal experiences with the paranormal, and relying on spiritual artifacts. The book serves not only as a point of paranormal interest, but as a warning for those who think to take on evil entities.

David Rountree is an experienced investigator and a shaman who practices wolf medicine, trained by his grandfather, the Lakota elder Black Eagle. He has been researching the paranormal since 1976 and is the Executive Director of SPIRIT LAB, a scientific research organization based in Hackettstown, NJ.

Robbie Lunt is an Arcanologist with over 20 years’ experience doing energy work in both Tai Chi and Reiki. He has been sensitive to the paranormal since a young age, an epiphany that occurred during a family trip to Stonehenge when he could felt the place’s energy in a way no one else seemed to. It was then he realized he viewed the world differently.

Demon Street USA: The true story of a very haunted house released Aug. 25, 2014 and is currently in ebook and print at several major and indie bookstores including Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.

Q: What compelled you both to write Demon Street USA?

Lunt: It’s a story that I’ve been telling for years to close friends. Everyone has always thought it should be a book but the timing wasn’t right until recently. It’s written for two main reasons. First and foremost it is a warning. There are a lot of paranormal groups that are strictly out to debunk the situation. They may one day get the proof they’re looking for; it is powerful and it can be nasty. Second, the book offers hope to those that are suffering in a haunting. There is a way out, you just have to be diligent and find it.

Rountree: It was time. We couldn’t write it in 1985 for many reasons. One, we lacked the wisdom to write it and there was no market for it. We decided it was time based on a series of events that brought us back together after we had been apart for many years.

Q: Do you believe in the supernatural or are you a skeptic?

Lunt: I work in the entertainment business; I’ve worked with many magicians in my career. I’m always a skeptic first. I do believe what I have experienced though. The universe is not as strange and wonderful as you can imagine, it is beyond what we can fathom. So, I always keep an open mind.

Rountree: As a scientist, I am open-minded. I collect data, and let the data make the conclusions. As a shaman, of course I believe. It’s my life.

Q: Why do you think readers, and society in general, are fascinated by the paranormal?

Lunt: People, especially those in the west, are scared to death of their own mortality. It becomes quite apparent when a tragedy occurs. Religion asks for a blind faith that there is life after death. Most in this day and age want something more concrete. Paranormal research offers evidence in a scientific manner that more people can accept.

Rountree: I think in many ways it gives them hope, or a promise that there is something left after life. Energy can be neither created nor destroyed. Of course there is more.

Q: What started you on the path or paranormal investigations?

Lunt: I had always been interested in the paranormal. It was the experience that we write about in Demon Street USA that really set me on my spiritual journey.

Rountree: With me, it was the appearance of my grandfather in my room the night he died. He told me he loved me and said goodbye. I found out the next day he had died at that time. It started me on a life time quest to understand what I had experienced. I studied subjects that would train me to look for answers in science…and in spirit.

Q: Robbie, what was your first paranormal experience?

Lunt: It had to have been the fourth or fifth grade, we lived in West Berlin. One night, I dreamt the whole night of my cousin Robin. Everything was crystal clear and very mundane. The next morning I went out front and climbed up on the gate post and sat, waiting for Robin. My mother came out and she asked what I was doing. When I told her she rolled her eyes and walked away. I’m really not sure what her reaction was when my aunt and uncle and Robin pulled up in their station wagon. In the early 70’s you just didn’t drive to West Berlin.

Q: How long have you be investigating the paranormal?

Lunt: Really, since I could read. I have always been drawn to the paranormal both in fiction and non-fiction. 1985 was a turning point for me. I don’t investigate the paranormal as much as I live in a spiritual world. It’s not paranormal, it’s my normal. Lately when I get involved with someone, it’s not so much to investigate as it is to help. They are already sure the place is haunted.

Rountree: Professionally since 1976. I began running my first experiments then.

Q: Could you briefly explain the different types of hauntings?

Rountree: There is the active or proactive intelligent haunt, where there is an actual interaction with something that has intelligence. There is the residual haunt, where the witness actually sees a historical event play over and over, with no reaction to the witness. In short, my wormhole theory would explain both as the result of a conduit in space-time that forms, allowing non-local sources to create local phenomena.

Q: What can you do to protect yourself from ghosts?

Lunt: Most important, always remember that ultimately you are light and love. If it is a ghost, it cannot harm you. In 9 out of 10 cases the spirit just wants to be acknowledged, say hello! There are however, other things out there. Start with picturing a ball of white light surrounding yourself. That would be step one. Smudging (spreading the smoke about) with sage is an age old Native American practice. Different belief systems use different herbs and incense but the idea is to get a powerful vibration happening so only the positive gets in. If it seems that it is more than just a ghost, consulting a man of faith is in order. Always go to whomever you are comfortable with. If that doesn’t work then you may need to search outside your particular beliefs for someone who can get the job done. Don’t give up hope.

Q: Can only priests or spiritual leaders perform exorcisms?

Rountree: I would say yes, as you are dealing with a spiritual entity. If you aren’t trained, or well versed in spirituality, no reading from any book will empower you to exorcise a demon from a person, or banish it from property. You can’t banish demons with niceties and words alone. It takes unbending intent, and impeccable will.

Q: What are the consequences of dealing with negative entities?

Lunt: There is a plethora. Many depend on the entity; many on the person being affected. Everybody has their own subjective grooviness, their reality. It is how each person perceives the world around them in their unique fashion. If a person’s reality is shattered by an encounter with a negative energy it can go in two main directions. They can embrace the freedom offered by the bounds of their reality collapsing or they can slip into the quagmire of despair crushed by their reality not quite being everything they thought it was.

Q: What is your advice if someone thinks they have a demon in their house?

Rountree: Call a Priest. Preferably of your religion, but exhaust your clergy options first. Then seek out a medicine man or shaman with a known reputation for being who he or she is.

Q: How do people react when you tell them about your paranormal experiences?

Lunt: One thing I have noticed, it cracks me up. Even if the person listening is a hardened skeptic, they have a brother or an aunt or a cousin or a best friend that has had a ghostly experience. Since I work in a lot of theaters most of my co-workers at one time or another have had a paranormal encounter.  For some reason most theaters are haunted.

Q: What kind of paranormal creatures do you wish you could meet? / Never want to meet?

Lunt: I wish I could meet only benevolent, generous and loving creatures. Spirits seems to have something else in store for me. I could do without another encounter with an authentic demon or a shadow being. I may not be that lucky.

Rountree: I have four ex-wives. Been there…done that…seen them all. I qualify to be a tour guide in Hell.

Q: What spirits do you authors partake of to get these tales?

Lunt: A few have asked- what were you guys on? All of the events in the book were witnessed by different groups of people who all witnessed the same thing at different times. I think you partake after the event to help you deal with what you just experienced.

Rountree: We were stone cold sober

Wormhole Theory by David M. Rountree

Einstein-Rosen Bridge formation appears to be the primary mechanic involved with paranormal phenomena. We have known for some time that the phenomena are emerging, meaning it’s a local condition with a non-local source. In science, there are only a very few things that can create the conditions for emerging information to occur. Since we know that nothing we experience can be experienced outside of the laws of physics, the answer for haunting phenomena must comply with those laws. All indications show that it does. First let’s examine what an Einstein-Rosen bridge actually is.

From Wikipedia:

An Einstein–Rosen bridge, also known by its common vernacular “A wormhole”, or in Para-circles “Portal” or “Vortex” is a hypothetical topological feature of space-time that would fundamentally be a “shortcut” through space-time. A wormhole is much like a tunnel with two ends each in separate points in space-time. This means that it can connect two places in space, as well as two places in time…or both. In plain English, if we visualize space as a two-dimensional (2D) surface, a wormhole can be pictured as the 2D surface of a tube that connects different parts of the surface. The mouths of a wormhole are analogous to the holes at either end of the tube in a 2D plane. An actual wormhole would be analogous to this but with the spatial dimensions raised by one, which can be modeled mathematically even if we find it impossible to visualize. For example, instead of circular holes on a 2D plane, a real wormhole’s mouths could be spheres in 3D space.

Researchers have no observational evidence for wormholes, until now. The equations of the theory of general relativity have valid solutions that contain wormholes. Because of its robust theoretical strength, a wormhole is one of the great physics metaphors for teaching general relativity. The first type of wormhole solution discovered was the Schwarzschild wormhole, which would be present in the Schwarzschild metric describing an eternal black hole, but it was found that this type of wormhole would collapse too quickly for anything to cross from one end to the other. Wormholes which could actually be crossed in both directions, known as traversable wormholes, would only be possible if exotic matter with negative energy density could be used to stabilize them.

To delve deeper, The Casimir effect shows that quantum field theory allows the energy density in certain regions of space to be negative relative to the ordinary vacuum energy, and it has been shown theoretically that quantum field theory allows states where the energy can be arbitrarily negative at a given point. Many physicists such as Stephen Hawking, Kip Thorne, and others therefore argue that such effects might make it possible to stabilize a traversable wormhole. Physicists have not found any natural process that would be predicted to form a wormhole naturally in the context of general relativity, although the quantum foam hypothesis is sometimes used to suggest that tiny wormholes might appear and disappear spontaneously at the Planck scale, and stable versions of such wormholes have been suggested as dark matter candidates. It has also been proposed that if a tiny wormhole held open by a negative-mass cosmic string had appeared around the time of the Big Bang, it could have been inflated to macroscopic size by cosmic inflation.

The American theoretical physicist John Archibald Wheeler coined the term wormhole in 1957; however, in 1921, the German mathematician Hermann Weyl already had proposed the wormhole theory, in connection with mass analysis of electromagnetic field energy.

This analysis forces one to consider situations…where there is a net flux of lines of force, through what topologists would call “a handle” of the multiply-connected space, and what physicists might perhaps be excused for more vividly terming a “wormhole”.

So…taking all this into account, we began a search for evidence demonstrating wormhole formation back in 2010. I designed a device that could detect emerging Electromagnetic Fields, in order to define a source point for further analysis. This device, The EMF Quadrolator, has been dubbed “The Worm Hole Detector” for simplicity. Here is what we have discovered since 2010:

A point of information emergence forms in a locale. This information is Electromagnetic field radiation. This includes Electronic Voice Phenomena, which has been proven to be an Electromagnetic Field in the Audio spectrum of frequencies. It is not sound. Sound is mechanical energy, not electromagnetic energy. However, it is also noted that acoustic energy (sound) also emerges.

In the local area of emergence, the environment alters. The first alteration is an increase in background gamma radiation. IF exotic matter is present, it will annihilate once it contacts normal matter. It will occur at the Planck level, or particle/sub-atomic level. If it occurred at the atomic level, there would be a large thermonuclear explosion. This is not the case.

This gamma radiation ionizes the air molecules adjacent to the emergence point. This causes a dramatic increase in ions, both positive and negative.

Static fields increase dramatically, creating hair standing on end, fear responses, and other psychological conditions due to neural stimulation.

Barometric pressure drops adjacent to the emergence point. This indicates an atmospheric differential is occurring.

Gravity fluctuates along three separate axes. This is indicative of wormhole formation. A wormhole can bend space-time locally.

Vortexual movement can be detected. This would be indicative of wormhole spin…or rotation.

Information can also emerge in the form of visual stimulation based on low frequency acoustics. Brainwave alteration can occur from low frequency EMF. This can alter mood, stimulate various emotional responses, and trigger medium effects, or the receiving of intelligent information.

An “apparition” can appear. This is caused by a holographic projection of energy on to the holographic boundary of the wormhole. This means a visual ghost is a hologram. Evidence suggests that the source is intelligent, and possibly a disembodied consciousness.

Predictions of this data occurring can be made. Many tests were conducted in both active and inactive locations. Wormhole activity was detected in both locations. This indicates that wormholes open up all around us all the time. These gates are sometimes active, sometimes not. There tends to be more “active” wormhole activity in locales with a reputation of being “haunted”.

Tesla did experiments with his high energy Tesla coil. High energy discharge has demonstrated potential for artificially opening these wormholes.

There are time fluctuations occurring at the mouth of the wormhole. Time may speed up or slow down. This can be experienced physically, as well as detected using a torsion field detector.

The data demonstrated above is predictable. The predictions are realized associated with activity and information emergence. The theory is legitimate. The proof is building for not only this being the mechanic involved in paranormal activity, but more important, proof that wormholes exist and are not just theoretical constructs.
