''Beyond Investigation Magazine'' (''BIM'') is an American magazine that features Beyond Investigation, a group that investigates paranormal and conspiracy theory claims. Beyond Investigation was founded by Patrick Wheelock in 2004〔(http://www.beyondinvestigation.com/about.asp )〕 to investigate claims of paranormal activity and to publish those investigations and associated research in a printed periodical. Due to the expenses associated with publishing a limit circulation periodical, ''BIM'' has changed distribution formats to web and DVD, and only the first issue was distributed in print. In 2005, ''BIM'' began webcasting audio programming, most notably a weekly talk show called ''The Pat & Brian Show''. Beyond Investigation claims to differ from most other paranormal investigative groups in that, although they have worked on occasion with psychics, they make no attempt to purge or explain paranormal activity, they simply attempt to objectively document and analyze data.〔(Squeeze OC, Nov 17, 2006 - We ain't 'fraid of no ghosts )〕 In 2006, Beyond Investigation was featured on an episode of ''Scariest Places on Earth'', documenting their paranormal investigation of the USS Hornet (CV-12), a World War II U.S. Navy aircraft carrier turned historical museum. In 2009, Beyond Investigation was the "employer" chosen for Tiffany Pollard to try her hand as a "ghost hunter" on her VH1 reality television series ''New York Goes to Work''. ==History== In 1977, Wheelock began investigating the paranormal and in 1994 he started conducting investigations with his friends, Steve Sonntag and Chris Brown. In 2000, Wheelock formed Beyond Investigation and it wasn't until 2004 that the "Magazine" got added to the name, when Wheelock felt that there wasn't enough published, consumer oriented, but still scientific research on the paranormal. The first edition of the magazine recapped some of the investigations done by Pat, Steve, and Chris and introduced more recent members of the BIM team and the investigations done as the larger group. The magazine seemed to also establish a sense of self-deprecating humor with a cover that prominently called Brown "Chris, the scared mortician". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beyond Investigation Magazine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
