Today we’d like to introduce you to Marika Simon.

Hi Marika, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?

Since I can remember I was always looking for ways to entertain. Being an only child inspired my imagination and my creativity, I knew growing up that I wanted to tell stories to the world. The first time I knew I wanted to pursue a creative path professionally came when I was very young. I remember being absolutely mesmerized by storytelling—the way it could transform reality, evoke powerful emotions, and even make you feel like you were experiencing something completely otherworldly. Growing up, I was that kid who was always staging little performances, immersing myself in characters, and creating stories that brought magic to everyday life.

But the real turning point came during a friend’s trip to an old cottage. I had a strange, unforgettable encounter that I couldn’t quite explain; it was a moment that felt intensely real but intangible like I’d brushed against something from another world. That experience left me with so many questions, and it sparked my fascination with the supernatural.

From that point on, I knew that I wanted my career to combine both creativity and exploration of the unknown. It wasn’t enough to simply tell stories; I wanted to understand and even experience them firsthand. This journey eventually led me to acting and paranormal research. Bringing the two together felt natural like every experience had guided me to this unique path where I could share these mysteries with others. Looking back, it feels like that early experience was the universe giving me a nudge, and I’m so grateful that I listened.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?

As an actress, my journey is driven by a deep desire to connect, inspire, and sometimes even challenge the audience. I want to bring stories to life that spark curiosity, evoke emotions, and leave a lasting impact. Every role I take on is an opportunity to explore different facets of human experience and bring authenticity to each character. Whether it’s on-screen or on stage, my mission is to immerse myself fully and give audiences a story that feels real, engaging, and thought-provoking.

As a paranormal researcher, my mission is rooted in a commitment to uncovering the unknown and sharing these discoveries with an open mind. My goal is to bring authenticity and scientific curiosity to every investigation, bridging the gap between the unexplained and the understandable. I want to shed light on experiences that might otherwise be dismissed, providing audiences with compelling evidence and stories that make them question and wonder. At the heart of my work is a desire to honour the stories and energies of the past while encouraging viewers to explore the possibilities that lie beyond what we can see.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?

I’m an actress, paranormal investigator, and spiritual guide. I’ve always had an interest in the supernatural and the unseen, which has naturally drawn me into the world of paranormal investigation and spiritual exploration. My journey into this industry began with my deep curiosity for the mysterious and a passion for understanding what lies beyond the physical world. Over time, this fascination grew into a career that lets me bring real stories and encounters with the supernatural to life, especially through my work on shows like Repossessed.

In terms of what I offer, my work involves investigating haunted locations, helping people make sense of paranormal experiences, and portraying these encounters in ways that resonate emotionally with audiences. I bring empathy, intuition, and a fierce dedication to every investigation, connecting deeply with the stories and experiences of those affected by the paranormal. I aim to bridge the gap between the physical and spiritual worlds, making these complex experiences relatable and accessible to viewers.

What sets me apart is my approach to paranormal work; I combine my background in acting with my skills in spiritual work, which allows me to bring both emotional depth and authenticity to what I do. I’m most proud of being able to create a safe, open space for people who might feel isolated or misunderstood because of their experiences. Through my work, I hope to validate those experiences and create a sense of community and understanding.

For anyone interested in what I do, I want them to know that I’m here to share real stories, honour every experience, and build a deeper connection with the unknown. I’m passionate about bringing a genuine, heartfelt perspective to the paranormal and inviting others to explore these mysteries along with me.
