He previously investigated with Night Light Paranormal of Grand Forks, North Dakota. Although the group is no longer active, Eric and one other investigator continue to conduct occasional investigations when requested. His HauntGears articles emphasize practical equipment use, careful documentation, historical context, and checking ordinary environmental explanations before treating an experience as unexplained.
