As History Ambassador for the San Diego History Center, I am always on the look-out for experts in their field who can provide another means to learn about the past.  Paranormal investigation, and delving into Spiritualism, is always a hot button item for the public, especially as San Diego claims to possess America's most haunted house. Nicole Strickland has been the paranormal researcher and storyteller of choice for my guests over the years as she understands the genre deeply and shares key clues, identifies strategies, and demonstrates equipment used in the investigation process that is engaging, thought-provoking and an intelligent way to approach what might otherwise be a skeptical subject for some people.  She puts the science of paranormal investigation in the hands of the participants so they are actively immersed in the experience to whatever degree they feel comfortable.

My paranormal club and I had the great privilege of hosting Ms. Strickland at an event at Sweetwater High School.  To put it lightly, she was the highlight of the year for the paranormal club!  The members were captivated by her presentation.  Unlike the rather dry presentations sometimes delivered by my colleagues and myself, her lecture was energetic and informative.  

Nicole did a wonderful program for the Julian Branch Library about paranormal research.  She is an engaging speaker, presenting attendees with detailed evidence collected in the form of EVPs (electronic voice phenomena) and photographs.  Her passion for her research is clear as she takes her role as a researcher seriously; she wishes to share her findings with as many people as possible.  

Nicole brings her serene energy to investigations and it is absolutely a pleasure to work with her.  She has a reverence and respect for the spirits. She is respectful and considerate, not only to the spirits, but to the people she is with.  Nicole has captured some phenomenal EVP, many of which have been caught while on board the Queen Mary, her favorite haunt.  

Nicole Strickland is a well-respected member of the paranormal community who tirelessly researches claims of alleged ghosts and hauntings.  Her passion for the field is what separates her from the rest of the pack.  The plethora of knowledge she possesses regarding the history and hauntings of the RMS Queen Mary is not only astounding, but quite admirable. 

Nicole is my 'go-to gal' for Queen Mary history and ghostly activity.  Her approach is both professional and informative.  Having worked with Nicole several times in the past, she has never disappointed nor displayed anything but pure heart, experience and professionalism.  I highly recommend reading her work and booking her for your next radio interview or conference!  

Nicole Strickland is not merely a ghost hunter. This is not a person that you’ll find searching for random bumps in the night, but a true researcher of the unknown, the paranormal and the unexplained. Not content to sit back and simply read about the work done by others, Nicole is out actively investigating the mysteries that still exist when it comes to ghost and hauntings.   

Nicole Strickland gave a presentation to Casa de las Campanas on October 1, 2019.  It was well attended and the audience was very interested in the subject.  One resident complimented Nicole on the thoughtful way she discussed paranormal events.  At dinner that evening, her talk was the main topic of conversation.
