Together, they visit locations that are said to have had instances of paranormal activity and then produce programming for their own independent internet program called monstervisionTV.
Lick and Lancaster's interest in paranormal investigation heightened when "strange occurrences" started happening at work. "One employee said he saw a shadowy figure or apparition pass in front of him," Lick says. Another co-worker had a similar experience and they were so intrigued that the two friends began to bat around the idea of starting their own paranormal investigation collective.
"As a kid about 6 or 7 years old, I had my own little happenings," recalls Lick about living in the swampy terraces of Lake Blackshear. Later, when his step-father and mother, Charles and Dianne Davis moved into a 150 year old house on South Lee Street, Lick recalls “having the feeling that there was something around." “I snooped around the spookiest places in Americus like the old hospital on Dodson Street, and from there my interest just grew.”
The mission of the "P.I.T. Crew is to provide "raw information to prove or even disprove the presence of paranormal activity,”says Lick. "We have a lot of equipment and tools including electromagnetic field detectors, analog audio recorders, ion testers and temperature readers.
Lick and his associate were recently in Charleston at Poogan's Porch, which is number three on the Travel Channel's most haunted places in America, and “the crew” conducted an investigation as the local CBS affiliate recorded live. Last month, NBC studios contacted Lick and Lancaster in order to acquire footage to be aired on the Maury Povich Show.
Such attention has come to the P.I.T. Crew and their website, monstervisiontv.com, from what Lick refers to as "massive networking." "We have found youtube.com to be the best networking tool by far." "More than once, we have been youtube.com’s most watched educational video in a day's time,"Lick says. In one year the site has had over 300,000 hits with no money going toward advertising.
"We want to remain entirely independent," says Lick, and create the most honest product as far as paranormal investigation goes.” “We also invite the opportunity to work with others in our field."
