Editor's Note: In an effort to get to know some of the recognized and respected people within Paranormal Pop Culture, we're launching the frequent column "Paranormal Profile," which allows these folks the opportunity to introduce themselves to you, in their own words.

This week we'll introduce you to Scott Gruenwald, one of the reporters on Travel Channel's Paranormal Paparazzi airing Fridays, 7 p.m.

Comic books, tree forts, video games, hide and seek, action figures ... catching frogs? These may be things you would use to describe the average fifth grader, or myself. You see, I’m a player.

Hold on a minute.

When I say player, I mean I live to play - from the moment my Batman alarm clock wakes me up to when I rest my head at night in a fort made of couch cushions. I love life and playing keeps me young. When I was asked to do the Paranormal Paparazzi project I jumped at the opportunity. Well, I went home and asked my wife. With general concern, she asked about leaving my current job. When I told her how much money I'd be making (not much), she simply said, "bring extra socks." So, off I went on this whirlwind adventure, and what an amazing ride its been.

Rachel Fine's time to shine

When Aaron Sagers asked me to introduce myself to you guys, I wasn’t sure where to start. I have, like, a million jobs. If you’re a Stern fan, you probably know me as the host of  "Fine Time” on HowardTV. If you’re a music fan, particularly in the genre of down-tempo neo-soul and trip-hop blends, you may have heard my album. If you’re an avid reader of The Huffington Post, perhaps you read my articles on wedding preparation disasters. And if you speak German, maybe you can tell me what the heck this says.

Here’s the point: I need a nap. But if there’s one thing to wake up for, it’s exploring the paranormal.

This week we'll introduce you to Branden Wellington, a friend who is also one of the reporters on Travel Channel's Paranormal Paparazzi - premiering Sept. 28, 7 p.m.

Who Is Branden Wellington?

If you have that question on your mind, it's fair game. I often find myself asking the same thing. Like ghosts, it would appear I came seemingly out of nowhere and - prior to 2007 - you'd be hard-pressed to find a trace of my existence.

For all my "googleites" out there, you probably dug up Branden Wellington the actor, or the poet, or the model in jeans or underwear showing off his abs. I say that facetiously but it is there. So, what does that have to do with the paranormal? If you can contain your curiosity cats for a few more sentences I'll work it all in.

The Legend of Joshua P. Warren
(One of the Top 5 Most Beautiful Men in the Paranormal)

OK, I'm joking. When Aaron Sagers asked me to write something about myself, as an introduction to you, I figured I may as well give it a title that has never been used before!

Obviously, if you want to truly appreciate the paranormal, you must appreciate the inherent absurdity of it all. Don't get me wrong, I take my work in the paranormal extremely seriously. I've eaten, drank, breathed and snuggled with it all of my adult life. But that's because I love it. I have fun. And if you love what you're doing - it makes you smile and laugh - you'll do amazing work.
