Joe Avena
Position: Founder, Director, Board of Trustees, Treasurer, Lead Investigator
Joe’s fascination with all things paranormal started at a young age when he would see a shadow-like person in his bedroom doorway as a child. Since then, he has also developed an interest in cryptozoology and UFOs. He has lived in the Alpharetta/Roswell GA area for the last 23 years. Joe purchased the Roswell Ghost Talk Ghost Walk tour in the fall of 2005, and changed the name at that time to Roswell Ghost Tour. He is the proud husband to Dianna and shares her fascination with and love for the city of Roswell, GA. His interest in its haunted past has also grown since first taking the tour himself with Dianna in 2000. He is co-founder and co-director of Roswell Georgia Paranormal Investigations. Joe has worked as an actor/model in film, TV, and print since 1990. His main gig is that of supervisor in management with UPS.
