The Unexplained World web site of the Paranormal and Supernatural


Since 2003 this site has been for those who have experienced or believe in "The Unexplained World" of the paranormal and supernatural. You will see some attempting to use the name in different ways, but there is only one 'TheUnexplainedWorld.com' and the only blog by the name of The Unexplained World on Google blogs.

The web site is a location covering ghosts, spirits, haunting's, Psychic abilities and more in the Chicago land area and has expanded to a world wide audience, as now the web site has been talked about in four published Paranormal books.

Plus view Edward Shanahan's free video Cyber tours of Historic Bachelor's Grove Cemetery, Archer Wood's Cemetery, Haunted Archer Avenue and more. A photo collection of haunted locations in the Chicago land area and descriptions of the haunted locations, plus a collection of articles directed toward the Supernatural.

You will find links to a whole Unexplained World,
where the border between the natural and the
supernatural will be nothing any more but fuzzy.

Spirits - are they testing us?

Below you will find what I posted for the 1st time
in 2004, and I still fell as strong about it today
as I did then.

By Edward Shanahan
*********

Hello Friends,

I want to share a thought, maybe even consider
it a message I received. You have free will to
decide what it is.

The spirits or the spirit world. Many are claiming
to see them. There are those who believe some
spirits do not know to cross over, as in either
not knowing their dead, or they are lost. Some
claim that there are evil spirits.

You also have those who use tools to 'prove',
it's a spirit, a ghost or the paranormal, all
words meaning the same.

Now that is all fine and dandy, but here is
something to think about.

What if it is a test? I know your thinking
'A Test?'

Yep - a test.. You see as far as my ' feelings'
and thoughts that have always gone along with
our Amy's internal ' feeling' and knowledge.

I have named Amy our Psychic Feeler do to her
gifted abilities and spiritual background that
have come about do to her knowledge that she
experienced as a child.

The feeling and thoughts are that Ghosts, Spirits,
the Paranormal is a spiritual gift your being
allowed to view and that they are making contact
with you, and you decide and show them by your
actions, what you truly believe by how you handle
it.

But maybe it is a test by the spiritual world of
spirits. Some may call it the Summer land, others
may call it Heaven or other names depending on
their faith and beliefs.

What if it was a test? A test to see how spiritual
we really are here on earth, are we ready to share
a spiritual life after death?

Maybe the spirit world today is testing to see
how far away people have fallen from the actual
spiritual beliefs of such, when the individuals
claim to have a belief.

Let's say:

They show themselves as a test, and you have
people seeking to prove that it was a spirit
with tools other then their internal feelings
and knowledge. So there is a showing of doubt
unless one can prove it with a tool.

They show themselves as a test, and you have
individuals trying to chase them away, thus
showing that the spirit is not welcomed and
also more or less telling the Spirit World
that as a human being, the human is more
powerful then the Spirit World.

They show them selves as a test, and some
people believe they are lost or don't know
their dead (that thought has always baffled
me when I hear it), thus showing the spirit
that one doubts the the spirit of the soul's
knowledge, and so how could one believe
in their own internal soul of knowledge?

They show them selves as a test, one individual
sees the spirit and others will not believe until
they can get tools in there to prove the existence
of such a thing.

Strange as it may be, some have been gifted
the gift of seeing, feeling and actually being
touched by the spirits of the spirit world.

These people do not need any proof as they
feel it in their own soul, a soul like the
soul of the spirit there with them.

The test's will go on, as it is strange some
need the proof and these test are to see who
they are, as many claim to believe in the spiritual,
but yet need the proof of it when it does show
it's self.

And other's have the internal knowledge of
the proof and for them no doubt is given by
the spirit world of their spiritual gifted
internal knowledge. An internal knowledge
gifted to them by the spiritual as we all
have been part of the spirit world as we
have souls.

Strange that the answers have been there for
years, yet more doubt is shown today in the
need to prove then to believe in.

Just something to think about from me.

Ghost Box in use - video here / Haunted Chicago area mansion.

Hello Friends,

I just viewed a nicely done video by Chicago's Latin
American Paranormal Society (LAPS), and it is below
and also on my web sites.

I invited them out to the Haunted Joliet Scutt Mansion,
along with the Indiana paranormal group IGT and
before them Kenosha Paranormal managed by Candy.
As I wanted it confirmed that there was paranormal activity
at the location before I or Ursula Bielski and I would bring
groups out to the location.

What you will see below is the video put together by LAPS
(I've had them out to the location twice), their findings and
also our use of the Ghost Box that was given to Ursula
Bielski and that we bring with us on our Beyond the Veil
locations.

I've always said the Ghost Box is an interesting item, you
will see how it's used by us at the mansion and you'll hear
the responses. I never use it for any of my readings (nor
have it with me), nor to contact individuals loved ones, as
I've always state that it is an interesting item to use at a
location, but not an item I would tie one's emotions too.

For information on other locations we will be going to - like
the haunted Insane Asylum in Peoria IL, go to the web site -
Haunted Historic Locations
http://hauntedhistoriclocations.com

We also have a monthly newsletter we send out from
the web site to subscribers.

Happy Hauntings,

News: Historical Locations Bring On Paranormal Spirits Observer

Historical Locations Bring On Paranormal Spirits Observer
Chicago, IL September 1st, 2008

Historical Museums and Historical Societies from locations like the Worth, IL Historical Museum that is part of the Heritage Corridor, to the Joliet Museum of Victorian Life and Joliet History have joined with Chicago area Paranormal Spiritual Observer, Psychic, and Internet radio show co-host of The Unexplained World, Edward Shanahan.

This unique combination of the Historical and Historians along with the Paranormal
History of Edward Shanahan have come together to create what is titled ‘Haunted Historical Locations – tours and experiences’. These are not just bus tours, they go beyond that, as they offer the ability to explore many of the historic locations. The Historians of the areas that are visited, will tell the historic facts about the locations and Edward Shanahan will tell the paranormal history of the locations.

Edward Shanahan has lived his whole life within minutes of the Chicagoland area’s most haunted historic locations in the S.W. Suburbs just outside of Chicago. Areas like Bachelor’s Grove Cemetery, Resurrection Cemetery that is home of Resurrection Mary and has all his life been just five minutes from the city he lives in. The haunted Archer Avenue and Willow Springs, IL area are within minutes of his home and provided him the paranormal knowledge that allowed Shanahan to be written about with two of the locations on Archer Avenue in the book ‘Encyclopedia of Haunted Places’. His knowledge, experiences and photos of the many haunted locations in the S.W. Suburbs of Chicago has also allowed him to be written about in two other books about the paranormal, and are ‘Voices From The Chicago Graves’ and ‘Ghosts Coast to Coast’.

Shanahan’s abilities as a Paranormal Spiritual Observer, Psychic and Feeler has also brought him together with Ms. Ursula Bielski, who is Chicago’s top paranormal author with paranormal tours in the city of Chicago, together they have combined their talents for the last two years for their ‘Beyond The Veil’ overnighters.

The Haunted Historic Locations – tours and experiences can run four hours or longer depending on the amount of locations that are explored by foot, once leaving the transportation that is provided. In addition, Edward Shanahan will provide a demonstration of his ‘Circle of Energy’ at one of the haunted historic locations on the tours.

For details on the Haunted Historic Locations – tours and experiences, visit their web site at: http://hauntedhistoriclocations.com

For details on Edward Shanahan and locations he will be doing readings at or if there is an interest in having him for an entertaining Psychic House Party, visit his personal web site at: http://edwardshanahan.com

New 'News' from The Unexplained World

Hello Friends,

I'm happy to announce that after a conversation
with an individual who I was impressed by her
ability as a Spirit Feeler, something she basically
kept to her self and yet she could not hide it.

Also add that to the fact she is part of an
Investigation Group and has experience with that
also. I'm happy to say that Mercedes will be part
of our Inner Circle for The Unexplained World and
joining with me on our upcoming The Unexplained
World paranormal locations.

The reason for this is she adds to the strength
of the Circle of Energy, as proven at the Axe
Murder House (I've done the circle for three years
now and I know when the rare opportunity of
having a strong feeler on my left side is present).

Mercedes has also been invited to join Annette
and I on our broadcasts, and she will be back on
a week from this Sunday, (next show the 18th),
as we pick up with part two of our discussion
with Mr. David Kump.

Part one can be heard here - comes on when
you get to the web page:
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/tuw
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also as mentioned in the past, the Investigation
team of LAPS is one I highly recommend after
seeing them at work (and only way I will
recommend an Investigation team), and will be
speakers with me on Thurs night July 10th, at
the Burbank Pk. district for the 'Welcome to
The Unexplained World' night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There may be another one or two individuals
I add to our Inner Circle of The Unexplained
World, that will be made known in the future.

Right now our The Unexplained World, inner
circle consists of:

Edward Shanahan (Spiritual Observer / Reader)
High Priestess Annette (co-founders)

Inner Circle Members:
Amy (Psychic Feeler)
David Kump (UFO's and such)
Mercedes (Paranormal Feeler)
Steve Hyzny
Bill
Donna / Mark (Paranormal)

Our paranormal web site is located at:
http://theunexplainedworld.com

Our Yahoo group is:
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/unexplained_world
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am working on dates and locations
for The Unexplained World in the future,
it is something I want to do the way I have
it planned in my mind and just working with
crossing the t's and dotting the i's to make
sure there are no surprises for me once it
is set. Details soon will be following and
there should be things you enjoy with what
I'm planning for The Unexplained World.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also let me say, if any group of individuals
outside of the Chicago land area (meaning
like Wisconsin), etc.. would be interested in
having me out and possibly Mercedes and
others in the inner circle, feel free to contact
me and I will see if it is possible.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Beyond the Veil trips are a creation of
Ursula Bielski and my self and different
from my The Unexplained World paranormal
outings and her Chicago Hauntings Tours.

The next couple of Beyond The Veil
locations will be:

Ashmore Estates in Ashmore, IL.
over nighter starting on June 21st.

Ashmore Estates is a three-storey building
that was built in 1916. It has housed people
who were indigent and those who had mental
disabilities. From 1916 to around 1956 the
building was the Coles County Almshouse
located on the 200-300 acre Coles County
Poor Farm.

During that period as many as 100 people
died in the building. From 1956 to 1976 it
housed the "mentally impaired" as a
mental institution. In 1976 Paul Swinford
purchased the building and reworked it to
be used as a ICFDD (Intermediate Care
Facility for the Developmentally Disabled).
The building remained in use until 1987
when it was closed due to lack of funding.
9 paranormal groups have visited here since
July 2006. All have said the building is very
active."
--from the Ashmore Estates website.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Humphrey House - Orland, Pk. IL
Saturday July 26th. - 6pm start.

The home of Senator and Mrs. John Humphrey,
the couple lived in this Orland Park home
until their first child died at birth.

The infant girl was buried at nearby
Bachelors Grove, one of the most haunted
cemeteries in the world. When Mrs. Humphrey
was found dead in the house soon after,
extraordinary events at both the home and
the cemetery began, leading even the home's
caretakers to wonder whether the famed
"Madonna of Bachelors Grove"--one of
Chicago's most infamous phantoms--is,
in fact, the shade of Mrs. Humphrey bearing
her lost child.

More details and reserving for either Beyond the
Veil nights, can be found at:

or reserve by calling:
For reservations, call

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Experiment - Are you interested in participating ?

As it states, this will be an experiment at no cost
or fee. Mr. David Kump will be running it (hear our
last broadcast).

What I need are a couple more feelers or sensitive's
to participate in my Circle of Energy and done for a
different reason other then picking up spirits. This
will be in the eve and we are looking at Saturday
June 14th.

It will be done very, very near the Indiana Dunes
and we will meet at Annette's house (details of
meeting location, once you commit to coming).

As I said this will be an experiment by request of
David Kump.

Just e-mail me if interested.

Happy Hauntings,

Paranormal - What happened, possibilities, what's coming.

Hello Friends,

I'm just bouncing back from our Villisca Axe Murder
House Trip / weekend and followed up by doing readings
last night (Monday).

Below you will find my overview thoughts on the
location, my experience and how all contributed in
one way or another.

Then what is a possibility and what is coming up.

Also for those who are interested, I have a
MySpace page and blog at:
http://www.myspace.com/edsunray

Ed Shanahan - The Unexplained World
http://theunexplainedworld.com
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Villisca Axe Murder House - Experience.

I have to say it was an enjoyable drive there and back.
Sure it was long, but I never have been in Iowa, so that
was new, plus those I traveled with were comfortable to
be with, and when your traveling hours on end, that is
very important. And Mike, Wanda and Mercedes I briefly
met in the past and on this trip I feel they have become
friends.

You can hear Mercedes describe some of the stuff that
went down at the house on our recent broadcast (it will
be the show that comes on when you get to the page):
at:
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/tuw

Also in the Archived Shows you can hear the live 1/2 hour
remote from the Villisca Axe Murder House with Ursula
Bielski(who planned this Beyond the Veil overnighter with
me), Wanda, Mercedes and Mike. Mercedes and Mike's cell
phone are the only ones who were able to get out with the
phone call to the broadcast that Annette was controlling,
so we ended up sharing phones for the remote broadcast.
Annette had her hands full but did an excellent job.

We had 12 individuals total participate, a nice number
for this location.

It was a very interesting and active location, one of the
few that I got banged up some at, but each could of been
worse then what actually happened, as with two of them
inches made a difference. Lu who is also a feeler caught
it hard when a door slammed on her finger when she first
walked into the location.

It actually was for the first time, at a location that
I provided my self protection before the Circle of Energy.

Yes it is haunted, yes there are spirits there, both good
and bad and I believe most experienced it in one way or
another.

Right now Marion and her husband are working on putting
the EVP up on the Internet, this stood out on it's own, was
caught on the recorder while it sat in a closet next to
the bed the boys where killed in. This came about why we
all were downstairs and we had the Circle of Energy going.

One thing that came out of this and was important, is what
came about in discovering who also had abilities to feel
and know the spirits. The two ladies I had on each side
of me, Stacy and Mercedes both are strong feelers and
I hope to have Mercedes participate in other Circle of
Energy locations in the future, as she also has the
paranormal background as an Investigator and she describes
what is going on as it happens during the Circle of Energy.
This then would give us 3 who I can invite to be on my left
side because of their abilities that I have already experienced.

The Ghost Box that Ursula brought with her (and will
bring to other locations for Beyond the Veil), was a very
interesting tool to have with, and made a few of us actually
wonder about it's ability, because of how direct it was to
some of the situations that it responded. We will work with
it in the future also, as a test of it.

To hear more, just listen to our recent broadcast at:
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/tuw
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Possibilities:

OK - I had a discussion with Mr. David Kump, who you
can hear also on our last broadcast. After hearing
'again' what came about in the Circle of Energy, and a
believer as many are, that Spirits, Supernatural, the
unknown of other forms of lives beyond what we know,
could be tied together.

He would like to have me involved, Annette (who has
already agreed, along with me), those who I feel have
abilities to be in the Circle of Energy (on my left side
& I will be contacting them), and an invitation to those
who also have abilities to feel.

This will be an experiment, right near Indiana Dunes,
no cost or fees and we would meet at Annette's (near
the Indiana Dunes), for this experiment. If there is
interest right now, let me know.

All I have to do is set a date for this. More may be
discussed during our next broadcast on May 18th,
as David will be our guest again for part two of our
discussion with Annette and I, and Mercedes we
plan on having back also.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Other Possibilities:

Plans are in the works for local S.W. Chicago Historic
Paranormal Locations, this will be The Unexplained World
outings.

Also if you or your team would like to have me involved
in one of your ghost haunting locations and outings or
have me set one up for you, feel free to contact me by
e-mail, my MySpace, Yahoo group etc..

Paranormal locations for Beyond the Veil...
Well the time is getting closer to the coming of
new locations and experiences. This year I'm
looking forward too as Ursula Bielski, Chicago's
top author on the Paranormal, has already set-up
locations that I'm looking forward to being at and
doing my Circle of Energy, and to go deeper to
bring out even more Spirit experiences for those
who attend.

The locations:
* Humphrey House - April 26th - private group night / filled.
* Villisca Axe Murder House - May 3rd, is filled.
* Ashmore Estates overnight at the abandoned mental institution
in Ashmore, Illinois, - June 21st - already some spaces have been
requested, still more open, don't miss this one.
* Humphrey House - July 26th - all spaces open and limited.
* Mansfield Reformatory overnight, in Mansfield, Ohio: notoriously
haunted state prison and filming site of the Shawshank Redemption!
This will be held on November 8th. Some spaces have been requested,
still more open.
* Villisca Axe Murder House - contact Ursula (below), for this
'New' upcoming date.
* Camp Chesterfield Spiritualist Camp - contact Ursula below
for more information on date for this location.

This is just some of the haunted locations. Also for the first time
at each of the haunted locations during my Circle of Energy, Ursula
will place in the middle of the Circle, a ghost box, this is by request
of me. As I'm interested in testing it to see if the spirits you will
experience during the Circle can actually come across through the
Ghost Box. We will have enough locations to test it and see what
the results will be and my personal feelings about it and the claims
about it.

As I've said, I plan on taking my self deeper during the Circle of Energy,
as I had the experience of doing so at our last outing last year near
Starved Rock, and no one was disappointed with me doing so.
Plus Ursula works with those who attend, using paranormal tools and
your welcome to bring yours to these locations.

For more information, just e-mail Ursula Bielski at:
ursulabielski@sbcglobal.net
or e-mail here from my web page at:
http://theunexplainedworld.com/Chicago_Supernatural_events.htm

Also most likely I will be doing some readings at the haunted locations -
bring items of loved ones who passed away. Other locations coming soon,
including Indiana.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well Friends, that is about it from my end, remember our web sites are:
http://theunexplainedworld.com
and
http://edwardshanahan.com

Also the new web page with haunted locations / dates for
Beyond the Veil should be coming soon, until then just e-mail
Ursula.

Happy Hauntings,

The Countdown Begins !!

Hello Friends,

The countdown to the veil becoming thinner has begun.

The countdown for the first 'Chicago Ghost Conference' is here -
This coming Saturday is the day (also a full moon weekend).

To be held at the haunted Congress Plaza Hotel at:
525 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago.

This conference is created by Chicago's top Paranormal
Author - Ms. Ursula Bielski, (did you see the large article
in this past Sunday's Chicago Tribune about haunted
Chicago locations that featured her and her husband?
it was great).

Free !!!! Also Saturday night at 8pm after the conference
at the haunted Congress Hotel, Filmmaker Scott Markus
is presenting a 'free' evening session of screening a number
of film clips on ghost haunting and paranormal research.
* Reservations ARE NOT required for this after the conference
event and it will be held in haunted Florentine Ballroom.

Student admission for the entire conference,
from 9am to 11pm, is only $15. Regular admission for
the whole day is $40 and tickets are still available.

To see what all is being offered at this unprecedented
event in the Chicago land area, if not the whole state
of IL, just go to the web page:
http://www.chicagohauntings.com/conference.html

Also Saturday at my 'The Unexplained World' table,
I will have for the first time in print, my book / manual:
Talking With Spirits - Learn how to be a Medium.

Also I will be giving free demonstrations of my
Conscious Channeling with items of your loved
one who have passed away, so remember to bring
an item.

I look forward to talking to all those who are friends
to The Unexplained World. Plus I find it amazing that
the tour I will be going on Friday Night and the one
Ursula Bielski and I will be running on Saturday Night
- The Haunted Archer Ave Tour, will be done under
a full moon!

PLUS don't forget to visit the 'Beyond the Veil' table
for a rundown of upcoming locations with Ursula and I.

Happy Hauntings,
