‘Who ya gonna call?’ David Franklin Farkas

Visitor to town clears visitors for a living
By Nate Hansen, LARSON NEWSPAPERS

In 1984, people would have called Dr. Egon Spengler, Dr. Peter Venkman. Dr. Ray Stand and Winston Zeddemore to their home to rid themselves of a ghost.

Times have changed. Today, when Ray Parker Jr. sings the famous lyrics. “Who ya gonna call?” nobody answers, “Ghostbusters.” Instead, people may answer, “David Franklin Farkas.”

Farkas, from Massachusetts, was in Sedona last weekend to spend time with local resident and fellow dowser Michele Fitzgerald. He came to speak about his profession to a group of people at the Jewish Community of Sedona and Verde Valley on Sunday, Oct. 15, but had time for a private discussion at Fitzgerald’s home beforehand.

Farkas was dressed much differently than what pop culture has told us “ghostbusters” wear. He wasn’t donning the white jumpsuit, black boots and nuclear accelerator on his hack. Instead, he was wearing a yellow T-shirt advertising his business.

Farkas sat down in Fitzgerald’s living room and looked directly into his guest’s eyes, awaiting questions on the peculiar pastime. He looked like a smaller version of actor and director Rob Reiner and carried the same jovial personality and wit.

“The irony is, me calling myself a ‘ghostbuster’ is like a carpenter calling himself a ‘nailer.” Ghostbusting is one skill in what I do. Farkas what I do is house healing.”

Farkas led into a more in-depth explanation of his chosen path. He said he works on three different levels focusing on the energy of houses. Each level is a step to make the home more comfortable and interactive with the resident.

The first step he used is called “Quantum Grid Restructuring.” Farkas described his ability to sec an “energy matrix,” somewhat like the visual effects of the film, “Matrix.” He said he can see energy fields and tell what areas of the home are in need of repair. If a grid looked damaged or full of holes, Farkas could assume there is a history of of traumatic experiences, disturbances or perhaps a ghost or demon lurking.

In a certain case, he was in the process of healing a new office complex, but found one hallway in complete disarray.
He said, “it looked like a bomb went off.”

Later, Farkas learned the office was rebuilt and renovated from the destroyed aftermath of an abortion clinic that once stood in its place. The building was once bombed, which not only put the clinic out of business and traumatized people, it also left the signature of hatred, anger and sorrow intermingled in the permanent energy matrix.

Farkas commented on people’s intuition, aside from his own. “So often people buying a home walk into a place and say, ‘I don’t know. There’s something about this place that doesn’t feel right,”‘ he said. “Well, they’re usually right.”

After analyzing and, in most cases mending the grid, Farkas steps into the second level of his house healing.

He began to explain how his shamanic ghostbusting” allows him to connect to the other side, to beings who are haunting people and places. Before he continued, he elaborated on how most ghosts don’t know they’re dead.
Ghosts assume they’re still living and try to go about their daily routine.

It is his job to talk to the spirits and persuade them to leave. ‘I convince them  to cross over” Farkas said.

At times it isn’t easy. Farkas said he’s had moments where he’s faced near-death experiences. One time, in his amateur days, he entered an abandoned psychiatric hospital and tried to talk to spirits. He was attacked.
“I was thrown against the wall and choked,” he said. “If it wasn’t for the other person with me. I wouldn’t have made it out al is

This brought Farkas to his third step – the assistance of others. With the help of seven Archangels, he is able to clear a home, bless the space and take care of any demons that could be dangerous. Farkas says he uses their strength and power to eliminate those ghosts who don’t cooperate.

Luckily, in his profession, he has earned the respect from the after world. He’s won enough battles with his Archangels to develop a tough reputation, in turn making ghosts volunteer themselves to pass riven

Farkas reflects on a particular confrontation th his own home and how the Archangels defeated a stalking demon.
He then describes the “whoosh” sound of spirits entering a portal.

With the approaching Halloween and novelty of honor and fright, people are sometimes interested in keeping their ghosts around. People think the antics are cute. Farkas emphasizes two points why ghosts must go.

First of all ghosts physical bodies are dead. They have to continue into a new life cycle. But can’t if they hang around pretending everything is the same.

Secondly. it isn’t healthy. The “boo factor’  keeps people scared. In turn, wearing on their immune system and making them susceptible for colds.

Farkas doesn’t work like those portrayed in “Ghostbusters,” nor does he enter homes like the exorcist from the movie “Poltergeist.” “That’s inaccurate and it scares people,” he said.

Farkas works remotely, entering areas through his mind and clearing homes from intuition and a psychic gift.

He is a spiritual housekeeper and maid of mysticism, cleaning, clearing and blessing homes for people to live well.
Like Ray Parker Jr. would sing about this present-day plunderer, “He ain’t afraid of no ghosts.”
