YOU hear footsteps in the attic every night, but no one else is home. Household items disappear and then reappear in a different room a few days later. The children insist they hear voices coming from the closet. The dog keeps barking at an empty chair.
Who you gonna call?
You might try the Katonah Paranormal Society. They chafe at the term “ghostbusters,” but the two women who run it, Kathy O’Donnell and Karen Darby, will investigate activities believed to be coming “from the other side.” Call them what you will — ghosts, spirits, energy forces — they are very real to Ms. O’Donnell and Ms. Darby, who say they can sometimes see, hear and speak to the dead.
The two women are not what you might imagine. They don’t wear silly helmets or one-piece jumpsuits. In fact, they look a lot like other well-to-do women in this pretty hamlet of Bedford. The two are sisters, and they are both blondes, dressed in brightly colored sweaters and wearing tasteful silver earrings.
