Thanks to the sixty-five amazing audience members who came to see my ghost hunting lecture at Two Roads Brewing Company in Stratford, CT last night!
After the lecture, a woman named Melissa shared the following story and video:
"I used to manage a tavern/restaurant in Stratford. It’s a bar-restaurant, and it’s one of the oldest taverns in the state. The story I’m about to tell you happened a couple of years ago, and the owner had passed away a few years earlier.
The restaurant was closed at the time, and there were stacks of beer in the basement. The employees came in the next day and found one of the stacks of beer on the ground. We couldn't figure out why the stack would have fallen, but there are security cameras down there so we decided to take a look at the video from that night.
On the video you can see something grey that comes from the right and moves to the left that looks like a spirit coming along. As soon as it got to the stacks of beer, it literally knocked over a stack of about fifteen cases of beer. You have to see the video, it’s unbelievable. There was literally no one in the restaurant at the time."

I conducted an amazing investigation at a haunted house in 2020 in Ulster County, New York. The following video clips are from a home security camera showing lights turning on and off in the empty house. The activity went on for a full 40 minutes.
(Clip 1) The sunroom lights on the far right side of the screen are on a dimmer switch inside of the sunroom just to the left of the window. As you can see, no one is in there.
(Clip 2) The floor lamp that is turning on and off in the second video is behind the camera. It was left on so it would look like someone was at home while the family was away. You can actually hear the switching turning on and off.

Welcome to Connecticut Ghost Hunter. My name is Barry Pirro. I have been studying and investigating the paranormal for more than fifteen years. I run paranormal investigations, give lectures on a variety of paranormal topics, and I have been interviewed by several radio programs. The producers of the paranormal TV shows Ghost Adventures, Paranormal Survivor, Ghost Nation, and Kindred Spirits have expressed an interest in airing some of my case files.
I provide professional, private investigations to anyone who is experiencing paranormal activity in their home or workplace. This includes, but is not limited to, reports of hauntings, poltergeists, residual energy, and other forms of supernatural phenomena.
My goal as a paranormal investigator (aka "Ghost Hunter") is to help clients understand the phenomenon, to share evidence that either supports or disputes claims of paranormal activity, and to try to help remedy the situation. I am very sensitive to paranormal activity and rely not only on scientific instruments, but on my inner intuition to pinpoint areas of activity. If your house is haunted ... I will know it.
My paranormal investigations run the gamut from ghostly sightings to spirits who make themselves known in terrifying ways. On my Case Files and True Ghost Stories pages you will read about:
