Franke has said that he was first introduced to this line of work on a fateful night in 1986 when he met the Warrens at one of their lectures at the Holiday Inn in North Haven.

"Now, some 40 years on, I am the founder and CEO of the Warren Society for Paranormal Research and Education, an organization dedicated to continuing the life's work and legacy of my beloved mentors," Franke said.

Since his last event in Wallingford two years ago, Franke said he's been doing a "lot of traveling around the country, lecturing and appearing at large comic cons educating the public and the next generation of investigators on what I have learned over the last 40 years."

"I've got a few new cases I'm going to be discussing along with some of the recent movies that have come out over the last two years," Franke said.

Tickets for the event are $20 per person or $60 for a family of four.
