GREG AND DANA NEWKIRK
![]() |
BIO: Often referred to as the real-life Mulder and Scully, Greg Newkirk and Dana Matthews are internationally-recognized authorities in the areas of haunted objects, paranormal research, and weird travel. Their groundbreaking work in the fields of parapsychology, cryptozoology, and the alien abduction phenomena have seen the duo featured in print and online publications like Kotaku, Yahoo! News, and the CBC, in books like Encyclopedia of the World’s Most Haunted Places, and television appearances on shows such as Finding Bigfoot (Animal Planet), Kindred Spirits (TLC) and Mysteries at the Museum (Travel). Additionally, Greg and Dana remain regular guests on leading radio programs like Coast to Coast AM, Midnight in the Desert, and podcasts like Mysterious Universe. For the last twenty years, Greg and Dana have traversed North America on hundreds of paranormal adventures in search of everything from legendary monsters to mind bending psychic phenomena, covering everything in between. They’ve come face-to-face with Bigfoot deep in the hills of West Virginia, successfully orchestrated an alien abduction on North Carolina’s mysterious Brown Mountain, and grappled with angry ghosts in a violently-cursed town in rural Pennsylvania, to name just a few adventures. When they’re not busy tracking down the strange and the unexplained, Greg and Dana can be found lecturing across the country on the subject of the paranormal, consulting on major media projects on the supernatural, and acting as writers and editors for the Week in Weird, one of the web’s most-visited news sources for true tales of paranormal, the occult, and the just plain weird. |
