Spend an evening with TRIPS (Three Rivers Investigative Paranormal Society), the local chapter of the national ghost hunting network, TAPS, and learn all about the paranormal.

Do you love a scary story about things that go bump in the night? Or things that cannot, really, be explained? Have you ever wanted to investigate those things and didn't feel qualified? Then join us at the main location on Saturday, October 26th and learn all about the paranormal from the Three Rivers Investigative Paranormal Society (TRIPS).

TRIPS was founded in 2016 after a few of its, now, members met while on a public investigation. They decided to join together and create a solid paranormal team. Since then, the group has grown to seven core members. The team specializes in residential hauntings and helping families feel comfortable in their homes while, also, getting answers to what is going on in their space. They, also, spend a good deal of time investigating historic sites where they work on and hone their skills and try out new techniques. In 2021, TRIPS became the first and only paranormal team in Indiana to receive the TAPS Family Team distinction and are now a part of the TAPS Network of teams across the country and world. Combined, the team has over 60 years of experience investigating the paranormal. TRIPS has a passion and focus on paranormal research and takes a strictly scientific approach to investigating. 

Space is limited. Register to receive event reminders. Accessibility needs? Our Theater has hearing devices and wheelchair spots available. Please contact ask@acpl.info if you have any additional needs - we'd love to help.
