Chief of Staff

Andrew Brooks

Case Worker & Lead Researcher · SPIRIT since 2016

I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area, but have lived in the Indianapolis area for the last 18 years. I became interested in the paranormal at a young age, when I was visited by a family member the night she died.

Married with three kids. My day job is selling chemicals in the packaging industry, but I have been part of SPIRIT since 2016, serving as Case Worker and Lead Researcher.

In my free time, I enjoy touring the famous well-known paranormal sites around the country. Most of my family vacations include at least one ghost tour. I can't tell if my wife and kids humor me, or secretly enjoy these tours too.

Finally, I am a natural skeptic, but I work hard looking for my personal "blinding light of the obvious" in paranormal experiences.
