On this episode of The Haunted Files Unplugged, your hosts Eric Vanderlaan and Mike Delcoro — from the hit ParaFlixx series The Haunted Files — are joined by special guest Adam Butler.
Adam Butler of Catching Spirits has been actively investigating the paranormal since the early 1990s, dedicating decades to the exploration of unexplained phenomena and the preservation of history through investigations of historic locations.
Beyond the paranormal, Adam is a passionate advocate for men’s mental health and PTSD awareness. Having spent 30 years in prison before earning a second chance at life, he uses his experiences to inspire and mentor others, encouraging them to rebuild their lives and avoid returning to the paths that once defined them.
For approximately 15 years, Adam specialized in the study of demonology. After achieving the answers he sought through firsthand experiences, he made the decision to step away from that field and shift his focus toward cryptid research, including investigations into Bigfoot and Dogman.
His passion for the unknown became more than a hobby—it became a life-changing outlet. Replacing a former life of drugs and crime with the pursuit of adventure, history, and discovery, Adam found a healthier way to channel his drive. Today, he continues to invest his time, energy, and resources into researching the paranormal, exploring historic sites, and sharing his journey of redemption, resilience, and hope with others.
