Due to Covid we won't be able to do house investigations. This does NOT mean we can't help. Fill out the Request Investigation form and we CAN help you with your activity. We will also add you to the queue once this pandemic is over, or all parties have been vaccinated, if necessary. UPDATE: If you own a business, depending on the type of business, we will be willing to investigate.

80 Investigations and counting

Welcome to MPF

Midwest Paranormal Files have conducted investigations in Minnesota, North Dakota, Iowa, as well as Wisconsin. We are based out of Detroit Lakes, MN, and have been doing this since October 2010. The group uses a common sense approach when conducting an investigation with audio, photography and videos.

This event has been cancelled for good. We have been opening the local Paranormal Conference at the Shooting Star Casino since it began. For more info on that click here.
