Brief History

Formerly known as “Singapore Paranormal Investigators”, the non-profit Society was officially formed and registered in May 2005 to introduce democracy and a more formal way of addressing the interests of the public and its members. The Society is the first of its kind in Singapore to be a registered Society with the Government. The Society functioned on the domain “SPI.com.sg” from the time it was registered till May 2007, where it relocated to the current domain, i.e. “PARANORMAL.org.sg“.
