Troubleshooters, Inc.

Founded in 1927, Troubleshooters, Inc. was the first paranormal investigative agency licensed by the City of Los Angeles. The group began operations in a garage on Fairfax Avenue, later moving to a downtown warehouse that was destroyed during the Fire Magic Wars.

By 1936 Troubleshooters, Inc. was the only paranormal investigative agency still in activity. Its owners apparently branched out into other businesses when the 1930s decline in supernatural activity resulted in less income from ghost hunting and exorcisms.

Though the business ceased advertising in the 1940s, and appears to have engaged in no investigative activity after 1941, records show its business license and other fees were maintained throughout the 1950s and well into the 1960s.
