Preserve context
Records retain the circumstances, source notes, and stated limits that help future reviewers understand what was reported.
ABOUT THE CENTER / RESEARCH ARCHIVE
A careful place for difficult-to-categorize experiences.
The Paranormal Reporting Center preserves accounts and supporting material with context, humility, and respect for the people who choose to share them.
01 / MISSION
Our mission
We maintain a research archive for spiritual, paranormal, and religious experiences that are often dismissed, misunderstood, or separated from their original context.
Our work is not to force a conclusion. It is to preserve the record, distinguish observation from interpretation, and make responsible review possible over time.
02 / METHOD
Research standards
A record can be meaningful without being overstated. These standards guide how material enters and remains in the archive.
Separate account from conclusion
A report is documented as an account. Interpretations, hypotheses, and findings remain clearly identified as such.
Maintain provenance
Evidence packets are kept with available source information, dates, and handling notes so their history is not lost.
Review with care
We welcome informed scrutiny while avoiding sensational claims, unnecessary exposure, or certainty beyond the record.
03 / PRIVACY
Privacy approach
Public-facing records are prepared with care. Identifying details, sensitive locations, and personal information may be withheld, generalized, or restricted when disclosure could create risk. A submission does not automatically become a public case file.
04 / CONTRIBUTION
Contributor guidance
Share what you observed, when it occurred, and what supporting material exists. Separate direct experience from what others told you, avoid including information that could put anyone at risk, and let us know if any part of your account should remain private.
