Paranormal Comedy
Mike
Brody didn't become a “paranormal comedian” overnight.
Years of sleeping with the covers over his head as a child
due to viewing “The Exorcist” and “Close
Encounters of the Third Kind” at an impressionable age
instilled him with a life-long fascination. For much of Brody's
life, he consumed books on ghosts, aliens, cryptozoology and
anything else paranormal or otherworldly. So it was a natural
progression when these sort of topics began seeping their
way into his act
| A
few years ago, Brody began sending video clips of his
ghostly jokes to various paranormal groups, thinking at
best that he'd get to do a Christmas party for the Wisconsin
Paranormal Society. Instead, Amy Bruni, star of the SyFy
Channel's TV show “Ghost Hunters” contacted
him about doing a full set of paranormal material to kick-off
their event at the luxurious Mt. Washington Resort in
New Hampshire. Brody accepted and the show was a resounding
success. Since that time, Brody has been hired to be the
“Official Comedian of Beyond Reality Events”
- the company that organizes all of the Ghost Hunter's
conferences. Now he performs regularly for Beyond Reality
in front of hundreds of ghost enthusiasts at various haunted
locations across the country. He also co-hosts the events
as well as the charity auctions with author Jeff Belanger.
This lead to further doors opening, such as writing a
monthly humor column for Belanger's website Ghostvillage.com
(the #1 ghost-related webpage on the Internet according
to Google and Yahoo) entitled “Confessions of a
Novice Ghost Hunter”. Brody has now had the opportunity
to investigate numerous famous locations such as The Stanley
Hotel (which inspired “The Shining”), Alcatraz
Prison (where he got to sleep overnight in a cell), Salem,
MA, and the Lizzy Borden House. Many more locations are
set to come like the infamous Eastern State Penitentiary,
Cooperstown, NY, (home of the Baseball Hall of Fame) and
repeat visits to Mt. Washington Resort. |
