Publish America

Publish America, American dream or worst nightmare? I am conducting a study about this publishing company. The reviews seem to be mixed.

Among the complaints I have heard,

1. Books are overpriced and not competative.
2. Shoddy editing.
3. Breach of Contract.
4. Charging disgruntled authors to void contracts.
5.Books not being available in physical bookstores.
6.Books not being available to libraries.
7.Authors not being paid their due royalties.
8.Inquiries ignores or rudely answered.
9.Have you found your books continue to be published after your contract ran out or was otherwise void?
10. Has your book been sold under another name other than which you wrote it?
Had you been asked to change the title of your book after they have acccepted your work for publication and a contract drawn in the name of the original title?
11.Did you write your own press releases?


There are so many other complaints and rumours that I would be here all day typing out a list of them. However, we would be very interested in hearing from anyone who has been published with Publish America and would care to share their experience postive or negative with us.

Haunted Holy Symbols


One of the first great lessons that I have learned as a paranormal investigator, was to stop thinking like a Christian. Christians strongly believe that holy objects and images can protect us from evil. For instance, those under possession are said to have an aversion to Holy Water and a crucifix. Do these objects work if the entity in its earthly life was not Christian? Churches and cemeteries are hallowed grounds, so why then are these locations have some of the most active spirits? And certainly, not all of them are Holy. The Miami Paranormal Research Society investigated Woodlawn Park Cemetery in Miami and experienced first hand a haunted statue of the Virgin Mother. We determined that this was a malevolent spirit. How could this be? I wondered. Would God allow an unholy spirit to masquerade behind a holy object? God’s permission is a whole other topic, but as far as malicious spirits attaching themselves to Holy objects, I say yes, that can and does happen. We all know that demons are deceptive and what better camouflage than a Holy symbol?

The year before last, our team investigated a house in North West Miami. I have detailed our experience in the Dark Side of The Sunshine State. In this residence, I uncovered the fact that a double homicide had taken place there within the last three years and the current owner did have full knowledge about it. Problem was, the tenants were oblivious to that fact. All they knew was that there were many strange things going on. This was as real and as terrifying as it gets and could surely write an entire book just upon my experience with this residence. While at the residence, I was attacked twice. Once while in a bedroom that was used for storage and the second time, while in the laundry room. While in the laundry room, I felt what I can only describe as a claw clenched around my throat. Then I felt a strong tug at the black silk cord around my neck. My crucifix, pictured above, was suspended from the cord. I heard the sound of metal hitting the concrete floor and when I looked down, there was my cross. I picked it up and made a hasty exit. Only after leaving did I realize that my cord was still around my neck. No damage was done to either the cross or the cord and yet were separated. Someone asked me, “Are you saying that two solid objects passed right through each other?” I replied,” Yes, that is exactly what I am saying.” I cannot explain it, but that is what happened. I had the cross cleansed with Holy Water and since it was my favorite piece of jewelry and my protection, I continued wearing it.

Over the next year, I became very sick. I have been plagued by nightmares, insomnia and physical illness. It had become so difficult for me to breathe that I feared leaving my house. I must use a nebulizer, since I cannot tolerate the new HFA inhalers as a result of the US ban on CFC Albuterol inhalers. New medication had been prescribed with little to no benefit. I turned to Chiropractic treatment, again with little to no benefit. I was slowly becoming weaker and yet my doctor could not find any cause. I was having asthma-like symptoms every day and at night, I would awaken with a smothering sensation. My lungs were filling with fluid as I slept.

About two weeks ago, I finally removed the cross from around my neck. I planned to clean it and perhaps replace the black cord with a purple one. I immediately began noticing an improvement in my health. There have been no other changes in my lifestyle or diet. The following day, after removing the necklace, I had a warm achy sensation in my upper back that gave way to clear breathing. My appetite returned big time lol. I am only using the Albuterol once a day with no other breathing medications.

A case of spontaneous healing, or is it possible that a Holy object touched by a demonic hand was the root of the mysterious illness?

To Jason

Jas, I know you sometimes get the chance to visit my website. I found this video and thought you would like to see it.


Angelofthynight’s Ex Girlfriend Exposes His Fraud

This is too funny. Poor Ricky. A couple of weeks ago, a post was made on angelofthynight.com from Millie. The post is titled “Millie’s Response to The Rickyrant” This was a retort to his latest Rickrant where he went to battle with a lady because she had the sense to dump him. I would not otherwise be reporting on this matter, except for the fact that she did expose the fact that Rick was not homeless. What have I been saying here, folks? I do not believe this poor, homeless act for one second. Its just a scam to make people feel sorry for him and donate their hard earned money to him. Since I have started warning the public about this paranormal leech, he has made another post on myspace, declaring that he received some type of settlement and that his financial woes are over. I say, he never had any financial problems to begin with.

Then Rick had the audacity to label himself a “Stalking Victim” when in fact he has been stalking my family. Let me tell you something. Because of the nature of Rick’s posts and his nasty internet show, both myself and Paul have beefed up security at our homes. Paul now has an arsenal and three dogs waiting for this dude to show up at his house. I would really like to know just what the hell is going on here and why my name and the names of deceased family members have been dragged into this drama. ANYONE is free to Google this information and find Rick’s nasty posts about us and you will certainly understand why I am so furious. Thank you to all who have already done so and shared with me your personal stories about this guy. Please keep them coming. Rick wants to brag about how famous he is, well, this is the celebrity treatment. Oh, yes, Rick who asserts that he is GOD when he is less than a man. He is more like a DOG. I apologize to canine lovers everywhere, as we all know that dogs are a more highly evolved species than this guy.

But, there you have it Rick. The “beautiful” Millie as you used to call her, Admitted to you that she founded the angelofthynight.com site. So who is she Lord Lulz? Judge Phantom? You know now that she did pretend to be on your side for how long? Nothing gets past you, Rick. But instead, you blamed me. You accused me and my dead family members of the most vile things imaginable. You conspired against me. You created bogus sites to imposter my research corporation and diminish our good names. Worst of all, you somehow obtained personal information about my family and dragged them into this crap. You have no honor and no morals and yet you have relentlessly harassed those boys over on the angelofthynight.com website, just for speaking their mind about you. I am writing all about you, under no screen name. I am standing right here in the open, unafraid of you. You have posted all the lies about us and you hide behind a screen name! Only a coward attacks a little boy and dead people from behind a pseudonym. And that goes for you too, “Smoochie.” I would like to know if Ricky claims that he does not know who Smoochie and Paul are, then how can he possible make the statement that “Smoochie is not my informant.” Bullshit. You are all in this mess together now. Now you are standing there looking like a bigger moron than you were before. Anyone who strings someone along for that length of time (Millie) cannot be trusted by anybody and for that reason, I do feel that Rick is entitled to his anger. I would feel angry and hurt too.

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn’t it his lovely co-host Millie who took part in those libelous internet podcasts against me and my family? What kind of person knows that they truly are the founder of said website and yet participates in a public show that accuses another person that she knows is innocent? I say, she played with fire, got burned. Now learn from it and move on. When asked by Rick if he thought I was a fraud, at least Mike Digital refused to answer. At least someone associated with Rick had some dignity.

Wiki What?

However, there is no excuse to justify what you have done to my family- The lies you have spread about us. Accusing me of having MPD, being psychotic etc. Going over to the Wikipedia article and having someone post and me and Thomas over there. Like I would really say, “this is Sinthyia Darkness herself.” Who the hell talks like that? Then Rick makes the snide remark about MPD on my article. I have been contacted by the news media who have seen that mess and urged me to file suit. Really I should. I would not be the first person who was the focus of malicious attacks on wikipedia. Hank Harrison former manager of the Grateful Dead is a personal friend of mine and he had the same problem with someone going over there and trying to get his page deleted. That’s the trouble with Wiki and over the years has really lost all credibility because ANYBODY can edit those pages. Their “authors” are unknown and virtually untraceable.

At my age, considering that I had been in the entertainment business since I was eight years old, I thought that I was beyond shock and hurt at any negative press. After all, if you do not have a thick skin, you never last as long as I have and I challenge the likes of Rick, Paul, Smoochie etc, to come anywhere near my lifetime achievements. Those real achievements of course, never made part of the Wiki article. I had a rather high opinion of Wiki some time ago, but it lost my respect long before my article was created. Silly me, I believed that Wiki was factual and a good source of information on the net. Then I began hearing otherwise from other historians, researchers and a professor friend who informed me that Wiki articles are written by and edited by people with no expertise on the subjects for which they write. No knowledge is needed, no experience, no credentials and sometimes as clearly in my case, these articles attract nasty, vindictive people who edit them chockfull of innuendoes, half-truths and complete and utter lies. I am not angry with the “biographer,” and have already received an apology. We do know Rick was there and he left his calling card, a link to his libelous message board about me and my family.

Let this be a lesson to all of you out there who cite Wiki articles. It is not a responsible research source. Wikipedia is more like the internet version of the National Enquirer, which is fine if all you want is mindless stories to pass the time, but for academic research, look elsewhere.
**************************************************

Angelofthyfraud.


Then Angelofthyenvy Urged people not to buy my books and all that. He also accused me of self publishing my books, which I have not. Never self published. Never paid one cent to publish. He thinks that an ISBN costs 100.00 LMAO! Only after I started my own press, did I learn that an ISBN costs nowhere near that.Be that as it may, I NEVER had to pay for my ISBN, nor did I pay a cent for publication. How much did you pay for yours Rick? Too bad you burned this bridge. You may have had a publishing option besides your 70.00 Lulu specials. But alas, the bridge is a flame and any submission from you will be “recycled.” Oh, speaking of Lulu.com, their base price for their books is 10.00. The self-publishers are allowed to mark up their wares. So, Ricky has a 60.00 markup on his book.

Oh yes and I do recall those nasty internet podcasts about us, where you named deceased family members and ridiculed them. What the hell is wrong with this guy? I recall a show with you and your lovely co-host who thought to make some nasty remarks on your show about me.. all the while knowing that SHE was the one who started the AOTN site about you. But sure, just continue to let me take the blame and ruin my good name since I am the only one who has one. I am glad that at least the truth has come out. However, none of his lies have been removed.

The paranormal community is certainly marred by people like this snake oil peddler. Take a look at how he publicly treats a woman he claimed to love and imagine how he must treat his enemies. Rick obviously thinks I am his adversary and after his horrible, unprovoked and disgraceful attacks on my family and personal life, he is right to think that. I want to make it clear to everyone who reads this that this saga is not about rivalry between two paranormal groups, another problem that plagues our field. This is about a paranormal con artist defrauding the public and libeling the good names of many successful researchers. He cannot differentiate between freedom of speech and responsibility of speech and as far as I am concerned handing somebody like this a microphone is like putting a weapon in their hands. This guy was so jealous of me, that he created several sock puppet accounts and posted very defamatory statements on my Wikipedia article and insisted it be deleted. We know it was him. Everything that he does online leave a trail straight back to him. Trouble did not start there until he found out about the article. He has some kind of weird obsession with me and he really hates the fact that I am in a relationship with Thomas. He created another sock puppet account and has admitted that he joined my Yahoo group with this account. He made romantic advances toward me and I brushed him off, not even realizing at the time that it was angelofthyfraud whom I was really dealing with. You should be ashamed of yourself Rick! You are no Lord or God. You are even less than a man. Get over yourself Rick. We all know you have no legitimate career or future in the paranormal.Rick, you have no career in “radio” as you are NOT on the radio. What you have is a cheesy internet podcast that can be had by anybody with a computer, a webcam, a microphone, a telephone and virtually no talent! What a waste. Why don’t you donate your equipment to a needy child ?

You also do not have a career in “parapsychology.” To make that distinction . By your own admission, you wrote that you never stepped foot in a University. Stop trying to ruin the good names of those of us who do have good names and futures. We have been around a lot longer than you have. This looks like this guy is literally out to sabotage the paranormal community.

********************************************************
All Aboard the Crazy Train!



I noticed that since I started posting about Rick, the focus has shifted to a man named “Jason.” Rick admits in one of these posts that he did think this was Thomas but now he knows it is this other guy. He also states that he knows Jason is a co-owner or founder of the angelofthynight.com website. Previously, he blamed Thomas and I. So now this other man, who most likely is innocent, gets accused of doing all the fiendish things that he was accusing us of and now he has accused Millie of having been one of the main authors on angelofthynight.com. He is now accusing HER of having MPD, having been molested and having other mental illnesses. Oh yes the alleged MPD also makes her not recall that she is really posting to the AOTN.com website too lol! Yep. Its all the same shit he wrote about me! Rick, its really time for you to stop the Crazy Train. Its old and tiresome. You do not have a degree or any formal training in psychology or psychiatry. Therefore, stop attempting to “diagnose” people. Want people to stop laughing? Then stop belting out laughing gas aka your hot air. It IS funny. Rick, if you stepped back and took a good long, sober look at yourself, you would see how ridiculous and unprofessional you truly are. The problem is, it looks like Rick doesn’t really know WHO is or was involved with that website but he pointed his cannabis stained finger at me just to get publicity for himself. He accused me of owning the website, which I do not and never have. He blamed the wrong person and the wrong family. Take that as you will. He posted horrific things about me on a news article about my run for Mayor of Miami and ruined my chances for election. Rick now admits he was wrong, but no apology and the posts about my family are still up there, including his “evidence” that would be laughed out of court. Hey, Rick, take those screenshots and shove them up your fat ass. We all know you are the king of photoshop anyway.
***********************************************************

Get Off the Tracks, You Idiot!

Rick uses the same shoddy techniques in his train wreck of “investigations.” Some investigator he when, he cannot even accuse the right people of owning a website-which is easy enough to find out. We’re expected to believe he has the sense to understand the afterlife?


Furthermore, Jason is now the focus of death threats. You can read the threats and vicious statements toward Jason and Millie here: . Sounds like two (er, make that Rick and sock puppet) delusional and psychotic rants. Anything I write here about Rick is the result of his own vile actions. He dragged an innocent family into this drama and we are fighting back. By the way, does anyone know why Rick calls everybody “son?”

I mean it Rick, knock it off. Take those boards down about my family, while you still have the chance. This is not funny and no one in my family is the least bit amused by your ignorance and stupidity. This shows you what kind of a person we have lurking in the paranormal community. First he starts a dirty internet rumor that I have a potentially deadly disease (cancer) and then proceeds to make fun of me for supposedly having this disease. I mean he scandalized it like I had some communicable disease like an STD or something that was otherwise contracted as a result of my own actions. Who laughs at cancer? Rick does. And yet he complains when people laugh at him. To be involved in the paranormal, first and foremost, in my opinion, you should be someone who loves life and loves people. This guy is just so negative about everything. Its no wonder why he claims that demons are drawn to him. After reading his nonsense and listening to his voice, which I liken to nails running across a chalkboard, I have no doubt that demons are drawn to him. It’s not his 1,000 rad tattoos, as he claims either LMAO, it’s the negativity that permeates every thread of his miserable existence.
***************************************************

Ohmynews and Mothers United

Let me tell you what else this guy did and now I have proof that it was in fact him. The ohmynews board that I previously blogged about. The one where Rick showed up at and after he did, someone started posting as “Sin” which was supposed to be me, I guess lol. Only Rick calls me “Sin” like this is really my nickname or something. It isn’t. In one of those posts the link was posted to mothersunited.blogspot.com which was Ricky’s big screw up. You see, I did own a blog with a similar name but I do not have anything at all to do with this “Mothers United” blog. Rick, then posts on his PGS website that “Mothers United at blogspot” is my blog (which it is not) and accuses the owner of said site as misleading the public. Rick, the only one misleading the public here is YOU. I did run a group called Mothers United. However, I simply did not have any time to devote to it and it was closed down now for at least two years. I see that there is a blog at that address but it isn’t mine and it is a private blog. So tell us Rick, just how could you have so much information about a private blog unless you are a member (or the real owner) of it? Could be Rick created this imposter website himself. Who knows. I mean, take a look at my previous posts about this guy and his sock puppet Brian Smith. Rick created a bogus Yahoo group baring the name of my research group so this is totally his style. He is notorious for creating bogus profiles and impostering people online. At every turn, all this drama points right back to this angelofthyfraud guy. It is funny though. I am still gathering information on this drama. Ricky apparently did such a good job with the blog that he has been labeled a “feminazi”. Of course Rick believes in women’s rights. All women have the right to get a job, earn a substantial amount of money to take care of his rotten, lazy ass.

As we see from Millie’s intelligent post, she was too smart to fall for that. She apparently saw through Ricky’s charade and found a real man. I don’t even need to know him to know that he is better than Rick. Good luck to you Millie! I wish you and yours all the best.

Attacking people is not my style. But once you throw down the gauntlet, you had better be prepared. The reason for these posts about you is simple. If I am going to be accused of making critical posts about him anyway, I may as well be guilty. At least I can vent my frustrations and make people laugh in the process. Again, you opened this can of worms, not I.

Rick The Whiner

Somebody just sent me new information that Rick is continuing his attacks against me on his website. Here are the highlights.


“As far as the wisemen go, here is my message to you. You use my author name to make a site out of malice and vindictive behavior. I am going to do the same thing to all of you hell ill buy sinthyiadarkness.com and do them all and make php boards I really don’t care.” Rick


Ricky, Ricky.. where do I start with this? First off, leave my name out of this. I have nothing to do with this “hate website “ as you call it. Stop making accusations against me and my family. Secondly, what would you buy my domain with? You claim to be broke. Thirdly, the domain is not for sale. I already own it. Grow up Rick

“If you stop I stop that’s how it works very simple.” -Rick


That’s a lie you could have kept yourself from telling, isn’t it Rick? I never started until recently as you can all see, I finally started fighting back. I haven’t been attacking anybody but you have continued to stalk my family and write horrible things about innocent people on your website! Again, like I said in my last post, this guy accuses others of doing what he himself is doing to others.

“If the site {angelofthynight.com} goes then I have no more reason to update any of the sections on them accept for serial killers, jokes and future people I add to this site” Rick


Well, I remember a time when the site was down. And just for the record, I have never operated that website, nor have I ever posted there. Ever since you started harassing me I have gone to the site to see if they are reporting on any further attacks by Rick to my family. The site was down for several months and yet during that time, you DID continue to write and talk about my family. As for “Millie” and your accusations, I do not know who this woman is. But I know it won’t be long before you start accusing me of being her. You are the one who gets in between family natters, Rick, not I. You know damned well who Paul is and you are using him to get inside information on me and my family.

“Its wrong what they did you don’t make a site using someone’s author name it would be like me creating a website that says sinthyidarkness.org see what I am getting at…”


Umm, no I don’t see what you’re getting at Rick. Besides the fact that you continue to be obsessed with me. He is really, he is. (Check out his myspace page and you will see what I mean. He keeps posting creepy messages about me over there. “Darkness Falls,” “Darkness is my breath…” His radio show all of the suddenly becomes “The Darkness.” His nowlive slogan became “If there’s Darkness I’ll show thy way…” “Behind the mask of Darkness lays free spirited power and strength to conquer all.” (from Pretend ghost society) Darkness of course he spells with a capital D, which if you have read his rants, you know capitalization is a rarity.

This is the second time in this thread that you said you were going to register a domain baring my name. It would not be the same thing because Sinthyia Darkness is my LEGAL name. Whomever registered and owns this angelofthynight.com, registered it in your screen name. HUGE difference. Now had someone opened a website in your legal name, then that would be a fair comparison. You need to look up cases where cyber squatters have registered domain names in other people’s legal names and what the legal ramifications have been for those who have done so. Rick, you know if you are so incensed about this angelofthynight.com, there is a rather easy way to get it shut down. I would tell you, but seeing as how you have threatened to cyber squat domains in my name. Figure it out for yourself. But I doubt you can, since your mind is focused on being vindictive. You have burned this bridge!

You see everyone? Rick by his own admission, paid his web hosting one year in advance to keep his libelous message board about me going and says {if he could} he is going to register and pay for hosting on domain names in my legal name! This coming from a guy who claims to be so broke that he asks people to send him flashlight batteries and gas cards. That is an awful lot of money to blow on a message board of which he is the only poster. (Joker and Dark Knight are both Rick’s sock puppets). Gee Rick, you sock drawer must be empty by now.

I do think this man is hoarding all these donations (from this Paranormal Entertainment Group) and has more money than all of us put together. That makes him a fraud. Think about this folks. Wouldn’t a poor, unemployed man who does not have a stable place to live (allegedly) concern himself more with bettering himself than entangling himself in petty internet crap like this or spending his money on web hosting?????? To me, computers, internet service, domains, web hosting, internet webcasts etc… are all luxuries. A reasonable person would make sure they have all necessities covered before acquiring luxuries and this is especially so if children are involved and this 100 dollars in monthly welfare benefits (so says Rick). How many children does he have anyway? None of my concern really, but my point is that 100 dollars a month would barely cover toiletries…you know the necessities! And what about all the money for gas? Tattoos aren’t cheap either. I know, my father had a lot of them. And yet, this guy complains that he does not know where he is going to rest his head at the end of the day.

What is at the root of this latest attack? Rick claims that somebody called CPS on his room- mate. He is telling people that it was me and somebody named Jason. Just you wait and see if he doesn’t start saying this Jason is my son, Jason. Why not? He already accused my grandfather, who has been dead now for eleven years of stalking him. How would I know your address, Rick? Why would I care so long as you stay far away from me and my family. Last I heard, Rick was still on the streets. Rick in fact is the one trying to track down my whereabouts threatening to contact the Miami Public Schools about me. LOL. That IS stalking. Again, be sure to post your correspondence to them and do let me know what they have to say. Be that as it may, Rick if there is nothing wrong with the care of the children then there is no reason to be concerned about CPS. If they show up, be cordial, but DO NOT let them in your house. Many people do not know the law when it comes to this. The only way any of these types of agencies can legally enter your house is when they show up at your door, and say something like mind if we talk? And you INVITE them in. I would say something in response like, sure we can talk but we talk out here. The only other way they can legally enter your house is with a warrant and for that they need to prove to a judge that there is just cause. It has been my experience that CPS and DCFS are both absolutely worthless anyway. I have worked with families that although the abuse was obvious, nothing was done to protect the children. Waste of time involving these organizations. You have to actually have something on videotape really, in order to get them to do anything. After the investigation, the reports are removed from the record. However, CPS in Florida is a completely different story. There is big money to CPS to remove children from their homes. I cannot recall the exact amount, but the federal government gives the organization so much per child. What they actually give the foster or adoptive families as monthly stipend is nothing compared to the money they have already made. I have very little respect for these orgs the way they are currently run and I do think there needs to be a reform. You see everybody. I do not think there is anything funny about CPS being called on people without good reason. Calling these people out of revenge or whatever takes them away from saving the life of a child who really needs that help.

I went to a seminar recently and found out that a staggering 85% of children who are removed from both parents and put into foster care, have been sexually abused. Usually by the parents or a live-in friend or relative. In the state of Florida, back in the 90’s DCF operated more along the lines of a shoot first and ask questions later protocol. Now, those children are in their teens and thousands of them have never been adopted. I believe Rick is really in Florida and so this information about CPS in Florida does apply to him and this situation. Not to worry Rick, removing children is more a problem of the poor because they do not have the funds to hire a top- notch lawyer to fight CPS. You, my friend are NOT poor. No matter what you say, I don’t believe it. This guy puts all these details of his personal life up on his public website and then cries foul when anybody questions the validity of his allegations.

But I think perhaps the most disturbing of all Rick’s quotations are the ones that reveal him as a bigot and racist. “Take me to court cracker.” He wrote this aimed at me. Anyone who is from the south knows this is a racially charged epithet. What you need to know Rick, is that this is prosecutable under Florida’s hate crimes act. Be VERY careful about the crap you put out on the internet. Look it up. Be that as it may, at first glance this looks like a case of reverse discrimination. After all, Rick is as lily white as they come. However, I am not as white as you think. With a last name like Darkness? Come on Rick. This coming from a guy who claims that he is running for president. Rick, let me tell you something. It takes more than signatures on an online petition to run for president. It takes money. You ran your mouth, posted nasty libelous comments on the news articles about my campaign for mayor. IF and I say IF anyone writes about you running for president, I will return the favor. Nobody wants a drugged up, bigoted nutcase as President of the United States. Rick cannot even persuade anyone to show up to a Halloween party, and he thinks he is going to be popular enough to win the Presidency? LMAO! Oh wait, let me guess, Dear fellow Americans, if you vote for me Richard Rowe and you myspace and on the pets game, then I will rock the vote with a cyber gift to everyone who casts their vote for me! Guess that leaves me out. I am not on Myspace. There aren’t enough cyber million dollar rings to go around. It didn’t work to land him a Halloween date and it sure wouldn’t work to rack up votes. But I am waiting for him to say this. Real rings might work, but then the only real ring Rick has is the one around his bathtub… oh make that his ROOMATE’S bathtub.

Rick has no portfolio. He has no prior experience running anything except his big mouth. Hell, this guy doesn’t even have Wal-Mart on his resume. His Pretend Ghost Society doesn’t count either. It isn’t a corporation. He does not have a board of directors. Rick has no leadership skills period. But what he DOES have according by Rick’s own admission, is a nasty custody battle and I can tell you something. A lot of people from the Vegas area have been doing online searches on you and they are finding my articles. They are finding obscene things that you have written and recorded. Maybe the judge? Maybe the ex’s attorney? I hope they do contact me. I will come testify or sign an affidavit. You really did choose the worst possible time to start trouble with people on the internet Rick. The great ghost buster should be worrying about his dirty laundry haunting him. Angelofthynight will be put under the microscope like never before, if he keeps up this presidential hopeful charade.

Some Guy At Bachelors Grove?

This is harsh but illustrates the importance of fact checking stories
you read on the net. On the Bachelors Grove blog, I recounted my AC/DC
Highway to Hell story here

Today I stumble upon a recent post made by Adam Bykowski on 10-15-09. You can read "his" story here

The purpose of Mr. Bykowskis post was to sell his photo of the
grove. Adam writes:

"I have been reading some stories about this place
and this one kind of intrigued me. This one GUY (guy=Sinthyia
Darkness whose name is on said article) says HE has only been out to
bachelors grove a couple times but HE said HE was driving up getting
close to the cemetery, ac/dc's highway to hell came on the radio both
times. HE said that was a little freaky"

Say Adam, you did see my
photos if you read my article. Yes, that is me as feminine as can be.
There are only two articles that mention this story.

If you Google the phrase Bachelors Grove Cemetery, both articles will
come up; mine followed by the one by Adam. My AC/DC story is unique.

What bothers me is that he told my story without citing the source- no
name, no link and I am not some guy! I think people interested in the
photo would want to read the entire story. He clearly had the sense
to name a band, a song title and a male author but then called a
female author and paranormal researcher a guy, he and him. I am
regarded as one of the experts on the grove and the founder of the
Miami Paranormal Research Society for God sake. There were other
historical info that Adam used for his story but no credit accept to
men. What does that tell you? Yes, Adam Bykowski, what a story you
told indeed and over there taking kudos for a story that was not
completely yours to tell. Would be nice if you learned how to credit
others for their knowledge. Repeat after me, Adam, Sinthyia Darkness;
not this one researcher or this one guy.

Haunted Watseka

Greetings everyone. After the completion of my latest book Dark Side
of the Sunshine State, I immediately went to work on my next
collection of real haunts. This book is about an unlikely place, the
town of Watseka Illinois. I have some great locations included. If you
know of a Watseka haunt that should be included, contact the Miami
Paranormal Research Society and tell us about it.

Is Angelofthynight Violating Nonprofit Laws? His Presidential Candidacy, Open Racism and Bigotry

Is Paranormal and Ghost Society owner angelofthynight aka Lord Rick violating the nonprofit, nonpartisan rules by announcing his candidacy for President without renouncing his membership?

The PGS founded in 2003 is allegedly operated from 11310 Prospect drive, Jackson California 95642.

Its founder is a rather " doobious " character who calls himself angelofthynight, ghost hunter extraordinaire and now 2012 Presidential hopeful. We noticed that there is no suite number listed for PGS so we did a search and discovered this was a shopping center. There is a motorcycle dealer, hair salon, a bar and a shipping service but no nonprofit business listing. Is Rick running this nonprofit out of a for profit business entity? While I will not publicly endorse or denounce any political candidate, I am merely pointing out facts of law. Does he even count as a candidate when he may not even qualify? I will let you decide.

Angelofthynight is an officer of PGS and is a key representative of the organization. Under IRS regulations, nonprofit organizations are not allowed to participate in political activities. Under the law, Rick cannot give himself recognition to become an elected official or even to promote himself because he is involved in a nonprofit that supposedly provides community service. A complaint to the IRS would undoubtedly result in a full audit which would include digging into how this organization is structured, operated and with what companies they do business. I am not saying I would file such a complaint but an audit is possible. It is important to note that this law applies only to key officers and not to employees. Ok, angelofthynight, since you claim to be running for president, it is time to fess up. Your PGS really is not the nonprofit that you claim. Is it? You do know that legally, you need to take leave of office? Let's take a look at
some of the serious issues involved in his campaign.

I think that as a member of the news media, I owe it to the public to
look into this matter to answer these questions so that when the
debates commence, the other candidates cannot sling any mud at
angelofthynight. There are some serious issues that could haunt him in
the run for the Oval Office.

1. Is PGS a bona fide nonprofit?

2. If so, how are donations spent?

3. If it is not nonprofit, why does angelofthynight collect donations under the guise that it is? Even selling membership cards with his signature on them.

4. If PGS is not a nonprofit, angelofthynight has clearly misrepresented himself to the public.

5. Will he step down from PGS to show the world that his
candidacy is not just a publicity stunt?

6. If PGS is not a bona fide nonprofit or research group, why is he distributing copyrighted materials? The Fair Use Act only applies to Research, educational and Nonprofit entities. "Paranormal Entertainment" groups do not fall under this catagory.

7. If Angelofthynight is involved in a bona fide nonprofit, why did he
launch an attack on a political candidate and her family? Even stating
in writing that he would tamper with the election by way of his
supposed political connections

8. What employment experience has
this candidate?

9. What name does he plan to use on the ballot?

10. What exactly is Angelofthynight Enterprises? Is it the parent company
that operates PGS as well as some other questionable endeavors? Or is
it a division of Paranormal and Ghost Society? On his alleged
nonprofit website, there are numerous ads for his enterprise which is
involved in amateur porn, webcam porn, prostitution aka escort
services. These are obvious for profit dealings. Have you ever heard
of free prostitutes or volunteer strippers or porn stars?

11. If elected does angelofthynight plan to hire these people as advisors
thus turning on the red light at our White House?

12. During the campaign, how many people will he threaten to sue?

13. Will camera crews see through the pot smoke to catch a glimpse of
this presidential hopeful? Or will we just continue to see photos of
Mr. Rick taken himself with his camera phone?

14. Will angelofthynight wear the now infamous, "fuck me I'm fat" hat to his inauguration?

15. Will White House walls be adorned with cartoonishly large copies of the
Lords Prayer photoshop masterpiece? You can see it in all it's glory on the cover of his Lulu.com published, The Underwear Among Us book at a whopping 49.95! here
16. Will his campaign buttons and
bumper stickers feature Bigfoot, swords or flying saucers?

17. Will campaign donations be used by angelofthynight to fund message boards
about the people who speak out against him or refuse to vote for him?

18. Will reporters who write negative commentary be accused by this
candidate of running a hate site?

19. Will he threaten to sue newspapers nationwide for not reporting on him? 21. Will the people back a candidate who advocates reinstating slavery? This is a message
to the world from this candidate, telling us what he thinks of African
Americans. These clips were taken from Rick's internet Podcast on livevideo.com http://www.zshare.net/audio/680984899b13fff6/ . I guess he won't be getting Jesse Jackson's endorsement.


20. Will this angelofthynight candidate win the gay vote? Not with this :

21. Again, WHAT is the name he plans to use on the ballot? For some reason this angelofthynight is now calling himself Godofthynight. Perhaps we can just call him the CON ARTIST formerly known as?


What I am saying here folks is, I do not believe this man is seriously running for President. I think it’s a sham and a smokescreen just like everything else he does, particularly claiming to be destitute. I have never met angelofthynight in person, nor do I care to. But the general public needs to know that he is collecting public donations to fund his “Theatrical Clowns” message board, upon which he has attacked my son and my family. He posted bogus emails supposedly from me which were sent from an email address that I have never owned. He called my autistic son a filthy retarded maggit. In fact, the threat is still visible on the PGS website. The other possible suspect, adamantly denies having written these horrible words and so the finger of guilt, does go back to this guy. Be aware that there are laws in place that do protect children from predators like angelofthynight and those who choose to donate to fund a message board (which is nothing more than a sub-domain on PGS, that attacks an autistic child and a deceased war veteran are accomplices. These "donation" records can be subpoenaed especially when it involves a political candidate.

Miami Mayoral Election 2009

Although I had been out of the race opting to establish a nonprofit
paranormal research corporation, Tomas Regalado has won the election
in Miami. Sad in more ways than one. Only 20% of voters bothered to
vote. That tells me the people here have already lost hope. I have
never seen our economy this bad. Good luck Miami. You will need it.
Congrats Tomas.
