About Us
Why the Glen Tavern Inn?
The Glen Tavern Inn is particularly special to me because my student and friend, who has since passed away, Natasha, was the first person to introduce me to it. - Melissa

Who We Are
Welcome! Meet your hosts, Melissa, Cheryl, and Shana.
Co-Chairman
Melissa St. Hilaire
Melissa St. Hilaire is an award-winning author of the bestselling book 30 Real Signs from the Afterlife (Callisto) and an expert in spirit communication. Raised in rural Massachusetts, she had her first mediumship experience at age 3, was taught by her grandmother to communicate with animals, plants, and fairies, began reading tarot cards at 12, and has been fascinated by the paranormal ever since.
She's released a well-received documentary web series, Secrets of the Craft, co-hosted live paranormal investigations with The Dark Zone and The Spirit Realm Network, and has her own podcast, The Circle Cast, which will return soon. She also offers intuitive and mediumship readings at the popular Green Man store in Burbank, CA, as well as animal communication, custom spells, mediumship training, and more.
Her mission is to help others connect with their intuition and spirit guides.

Cheryl Plumb
Cheryl Plumb is a dedicated and seasoned paranormal investigator with a passion for uncovering the mysteries that lie beyond the realm of the living. She started her paranormal journey as a child, going on impromptu investigations with her mother, and has since been working to bridge the gap between the ordinary and the extraordinary.
Cheryl’s love of solving puzzles and a desire to help people led her to a degree in Criminal Investigation. Once the paranormal became more mainstream, she was able to utilize that training, build her network, and learn from the best in the business.
She believes in the importance of thorough research, skepticism, and a scientific approach to understanding the unexplained. She has been involved in numerous investigations across the globe and continues to seek answers to the questions that elude conventional explanation.
Co-Chairman
Shana Leilani
Shana Leilani is an initiated priestess, intuitive guide, and lifelong student of the mystical arts. Her spiritual roots are grounded in the magical traditions of her Hawaiian and Italian ancestry, and her work blends ancestral wisdom with modern-day tools for transformation and empowerment.
Her work as a spiritualist and paranormal investigator has been greatly shaped by her childhood, where she grew up in a haunted house, and the family gathering to watch shows such as "Fear" and "Ghost Hunters" was a common occurrence. She has taken these childhood experiences and expanded on them by training with multiple paranormal investigation teams, conducting séances, collecting haunted objects, and visiting some of the most notoriously haunted locations in the US.

Podcast Producer
Lori Ott
Lori Ott is a psychic medium, intuitive coach, and co-host of the podcast Beyond Dimensional. Her work helps people find connection, clarity, and validation beyond what we can see, through private and event readings.
What began as unexplained knowing and a deep sensitivity to people and energy became, through years of practice, something Lori could trust and intentionally develop. She works primarily through clairvoyance — images, symbols, and scenes — alongside other intuitive impressions. Readings may include communication with loved ones who have passed, intuitive guidance, and insight into where a client is and where they may be headed. She also draws on tarot and runes when useful.
Lori's style is warm, conversational, and grounded — mediumship, to her, shouldn't feel mysterious or inaccessible.

In a special episode of Dead Air, we present the conclusion of our exploration into the crossing over of a spirit at the iconic San Paula, Ca. inn , we welcome back Melissa, Mikey, Cheryl and Natasha to take us through the process and how a sense of closure was reached for a woman trapped in her surroundings by a malevolent entity with a gruesome secret.
Dedication
This paracon is dedicated to Natasha, a fearless paranormal investigator, a talented medium, and a beloved friend.
