Steve Ward has been fascinated by the unexplained for over half a century. There were two major events that inspired his interest in the unexplained. The first one being growing up in Michigan, the March 1966 UFO flap that occurred virtually in his backyard. Followed by, in November a winged humanoid chased two couples down a lonely country road near Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Hence, the legend of the Mothman was born.

From that point on, Steve would be chasing the Mothman the rest of his life. Influenced primarily by John Keel and Jacques Vallee, his views on UFOs became unconventional and moved more toward a more paranormal explanation.

Steve's main area of research is, what some call "high strangeness" or "window areas" (as Keel dubbed them) where disparate types of paranormal phenomena all seem to occur in the same location, and he believes that studying these paranormally active locations may be the key to understanding what the origin behind these manifestations are.

He has a podcast on the Paranormal UK Radio Network called, “High Strangeness Factor”. Steve is also writing a book, as yet untitled, that deals with the underlying patterns that connect different types of Paranormal Phenomena throughout history.
