Before You Apply

OC Ghosts & Legends is dedicated to the responsible study of reported anomalous and paranormal phenomena. We intentionally maintain a small, professional team where every member plays an important role in supporting our mission.

Regardless of your position, we believe the strongest teams are built through active participation. Whether you’re assisting with investigations, historical research, evidence analysis, tours, media, or event operations, every role contributes to the success of our organization. We value teamwork, reliability, professionalism, and a willingness to learn.

All new team members begin with a 90-day probationary period. During this time, we evaluate participation, communication, professionalism, and overall commitment to the team. Membership may be discontinued at any time during this probationary period if expectations are not met.

Successful participation extends well beyond attending investigations. Preparation, documentation, evidence review, and other behind-the-scenes responsibilities are essential parts of what we do. We invest significant time in training our team and ask applicants to carefully consider the level of commitment expected before applying.

Selected applicants must be willing to sign liability waivers, confidentiality agreements, and other onboarding documents as part of the membership process.

Thank you for your interest in joining OC Ghosts & Legends. Qualified applicants will be contacted as positions become available. If you have not received a response, you’re welcome to follow up with us, as response times may vary during busy periods.
