In the first episode of ParaPower Mapping, we introduce the topics of this initial series: a secret history of the occult in colonial New England, the influence of fraternal secret societies on the Sons of Liberty/ American independence movement, and the formation of the Massachusetts mercantile & textile dynasties that would wield considerable power and influence over American affairs—whether at home or abroad—in the early days of the republic and the lead up to the Civil War. Over the course of the next 100 minutes, we'll embark on a psychogeographic tour of downtown Boston, exploring the United States' sus origins through famous landmarks and haunted locales, such as the Green Dragon Tavern, the Union Oyster House, the Boston Massacre Site, the Parker House hotel, and King's Chapel Burying Ground. We'll discover the outsized importance that some of these sites had for the power elite of their day, numerous uncanny synchronicities linking some of the darkest moments of American history (from the Salem Witchcraft Trials all the way to 11/22/63 and the assassination of JFK), and all kinds of unexpected weirdness along the way. We'll learn how the Parker House, the longest running hotel in the United States, not only hosted John Wilkes Booth and his brother Edwin 8 days prior to the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, but was also where Ho Chi Minh learned to bake and Malcolm X worked as a busboy as a young adult... Not to mention where John F. Kennedy delivered his first "speech" as a little boy, later held his bachelor party, and even announced his candidacy for the U.S. House of Representatives.

The Omni Parker House in Boston, Massachusetts, is one of three romantic historic hotels with haunted 10th floors. (The other two are The Skirvin Hilton in Oklahoma City and The Drake in Chicago.) However, the Omni Parker House may have the most active 10th floor of them all. Even better, the Omni Parker House is very open about its restless spirits. The concierges keep a “Ghostly Encounters” handout handy for your reading pleasure if you care —or should I say, “dare”— to read it. Of the eight stories on the sheet, half of them are about paranormal activity on the 10th floor. Are we now among those who experienced some? Perhaps. Which we'll get to, both in this description and the second half of this episode. Anyway, one of the stories on the sheet was about a Harvey Parker ghost sighting in room 1012. During my research into the haunted hotel, I came across Unpacked: A blog by Omni Hotels and Resorts. In 2016, they did a Haunted Hotels series. One of the hotels they featured was “Boston's Omni Parker House.” This part of the article caught my eye: To those who knew Harvey Parker, such sightings — which have not been reported for two decades now — could hardly come as a shock.It reminded me of the “Most durable ghosts” entry in the 1989 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, which I'd picked up to verify whether they really had named Pluckley the most haunted village. (They did. See "Related posts" below if you want to read more." But the "Most durable ghost" section began: Ghosts are not immortal and seem to deteriorate after 400 years. I don't know how durable ghosts are and whether or not they deteriorate after 400 years but say that was true. Harvey Parker died in 1884. He's only 136-years-old in ghost years. So where did his ghost go? BONUS: EVP? I also included audio from a video recording when I was exploring the various allegedly haunted floors. It happened when I was on my way to check out room 1012. I wasn't investigating. I was just having a look around, but did I accidentally catch an EVP? Give it a listen and see what you think.

The Omni Parker House is one of the most historic hotels in Boston. It's hosted every United States President since Ulysses S. Grant and was the meeting place for literary giants such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and other notable novelists, authors, and poets during the 1800s. But the hotel is also extremely haunted. From the tenth floor to the elevators strange paranormal tales abound about the historic hotel. Stephen King was so intrigued with the Parker House and Room 303 it actually inspired Stephen King to write a short story called "1408". It was later made into a film.

Today on Cause Talk Radio, Megan and Joe talk to Peter Strebel, Chief Marketing Officer at Omni Hotels & Resorts, about Say Goodnight to Hunger (#SayGoodnightToHunger). This action-triggered donation program feeds a family of four dinner for an entire week whenever guests book a stay directly at OmniHotels.com. Since the programs launched in June, Omni Hotels has donated 3 million meals. Donations support Feeding America and local food banks in the 42 communities where Omni's 60 hotels are located. On the show, Megan, Peter and Joe discuss: Joe's love of Boston Cream Pie and its connection to the Omni Parker House in Boston. How Omni Hotels got involved with Feeding America and the kick-off ofSay Goodnight to Hunger in June. How Omni Hotel employees have supported the program in their communities. Feeding America's local footprint made it a perfect nonprofit match for Omni! How the program is geared toward Millennial customers and employees. 45% of Omni employees and 25% of Omni customers are Millennials. How being the father of a Millennial (who works at TOMS!) inspired Peter to take the next step in Omni's social responsibility efforts. How support for this program began at the very top of the Omni organization. What has surprised Peter the most since the launch of the program. What Feeding America brings to the table as a partner of Omni Hotels. How Omni Hotels is communicating with employees about the program to show the impact of their efforts.
