Ghost Walk 11/22/2011 Evidence Part #2

Photographic Evidence

Kyle and Shalise Lamb were two of our participants on the October 22 Ghost Walk.  They and four friends drove in from Utah to join our hunt.  While we were preparing the group Kyle took a few random photos while standing in the Gallery area towards the main library.

At the time nothing was noticed out of the ordinary.  A few days later Shalise Lamb and her friend Vicky called me very excited.  They asked for my email and this is what I received.  The first photo is regular, nothing notable.  The second shows a small figure hiding behind the wooden display case to the right.

Do you see the little girl? (click on photo and enlarge it on your computer)

We did right away.   During our time at the library we have hear stories about a little girl, around seven years old.  This little girl seemed much smaller than we would have expected, but it does look like a small little girl.  She appears to be white, in a cream or light colored dress, and some think she has her hair in ringlets.  She seems to be hiding behind the New Books display.

After receiving the photos, I asked if they had any idea she was there.  They stated on, but Shalise did say during the tour she felt a little girl with her.  Remember, we had not seen the photos yet and had no idea the little girl was hanging out with us.

Like Paul Harvey from radio……Here is the rest of the story-

Not long after the Ghost Walk the local papers contacted us and asked if they could use the photo.  The Lamb’s agreed and the Rocket Miner did in fact print the photo along with an article about the library and the Ghost Walks.  About a week later I received a call from up-state Wyoming.  A lady that had grown up in Green River was calling to relay a story about a little girl.  The woman said that she and a couple friends were playing in the area of the old city cemetery when they were young.  They saw some workers unearthing the graves to move them up the hill to the current city cemetery.

They were curious as you might guess and asked to look in.  What they saw surprised them.  In one grave was a big man, but in the other was a two to three year old girl.  She was dressed in a cream dress, with blondish ringlet hair.  The lady stated that she knows the girl in the phone was the same girl.  She said “It looks exactly like what we saw”.

I was stunned.  How amazing to have a call like this.

Special thanks to Kyle and Shalise Lamb for sharing the photos and Liza for the informative call.

This is what this blog is all about, evidence and the truth.  Thanks so much!!!

Seeking Spirits: The Lost Cases of the Atlantic Paranormal Society

December 30, 2011 on 8:05 pm | In Article | No Comments

seeking spirits TAPS

New on the book shelves is “Seeking Spirits: the Lost Cases of the Atlantic paranormal Society”, another interesting works by Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson of the SyFy Channels “Ghost Hunters” fame.  These two gentlemen have previously penned the book Ghost Hunting.  In the new publication they have teamed up with Michael Jan Friedman to put together stories from the early days of investigating.

TV’s popular Ghost Hunters reveal all-new never before-told stories from their spooky early investigations!

For the first time ever, Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson, founders of the Atlantic Paranormal Society (T.A. P. S.), share their most memorable and spine-tingling early cases-none of which has ever appeared on television.  Beginning with the previously untold experiences that sparked their passion for ghost hunting, Jason and Grant’s bone-chilling investigations uncover.

A Connecticut woman who seems to exist in two places at once

A little girl whose invisible playmate retaliates against her father’s punishments

A man overcome by an evil entity as Jason and Grant survey his home

A distraught woman who dreams of paranormal events before she experiences them….and much more!

Jason and Grant didn’t always have the fancy scientific equipment and experienced team that fans now watch on their smash-hit television show.  As they share their hair-raising first experiences, they offer essential tips for budding paranormal investigators-including how to use an electromagnetic field (EMF) meter and an infrared camera, determine if a supernatural phenomenon is good or evil, and deal with spirits.  Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, these fascinating and frightening true stories will keep you up at night!

Features eerie full-color photos from their investigations!

Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson are the New York Times bestselling coauthors of Ghost Hunting and cofounders of the Atlantic Paranormal Society (T.A.P.S.), featured on the #1 SyFy television show, Ghost Hunters. Both plumbers, they live in Rhode Island with their families.

Michael Jan Friedman is the author of more than sixty science fiction and fantasy novels.  Ten of his books have hit the New York Times bestsellers lists.  His latest works are the Ultimates:Tomorrow Men for Pocket Books and Wolf Man: Hunter’s Moon for Dark Horse Press.  Friedman lives with his wife and two sons on Long Island, where he spends his free time kayaking, playing handball, and rooting for the New York Yankees.

2011 The Paranormal Investigations Team of Utah Final Report / Part II

December 15, 2011 on 5:23 pm | In Article | No Comments

2011   The Paranormal Investigations Team of Utah

Sweetwater County Library

Date of Investigation: July 27th, 2011

Case Number: 07272011

Location: Sweetwater County Library, Green River, Wyoming

PI Team Members Present: Jennifer, Robert, Jenny, Josh, Nate, Joel


Continued Report

Unexplained Equipment Malfunction/Battery Drain

None Reported

EMF Evidence

We took baseline readings of the entire building prior to beginning our investigation.  Everything was within normal limits, nothing was higher than a .5-.6.

All night long we had very interesting activity with our K2 meters.  Our team split into 3 groups of 2 each and spread out throughout the building, each focusing on a hot spot.  Whenever we would start EVP sessions and would start asking questions the K2 would light up in response to certain questions.  This happened throughout the investigation and a lot of it was caught on video.

What we found most interesting is that the K2 activity would only happen for the male members of the team.  If jenny and Jennifer started to ask questions all activity with the K2 would cease.  This happened numerous times.

Video & Photographic Evidence

One of our most interesting pieces of video captured to date occurred on the investigation.  We normally do not us e a ghost-box because a ghost box is basically a radio that has been altered to never stop at one particular station.  The theory is that the spirits can us the radio interference to “speak” though the ghost box.  For us that is just too random as we try to use equipment that lessens all outside interference as much as possible.  However we brought one along on this investigation to more or less play with.  Jenny and Jennifer brought the ghost box to the upstairs staff break room and started an EVP session.  Jennifer began by asking whatever might be there to show us what they can do, let us know that this ghost box is really something and not just random words blurted out.  Jenny asked what is your name and shortly after we hear a fairly clear voice say me?  Jenny laughed and said yes you.  Shortly after Jenny spoke the words my –name – is, came out one right after the other.  Jennifer was shocked and asked Jenny if she heard it and as soon as Jennifer finished speaking the name Jenny was spoken. They were both shocked because not only were they getting direct responses to questions asked but it also called Jenny out by name.  Jenny continued with “Well that’s my name, what’s yours” and the name Anne was spoken.  After that nothing else came over.  Can we say this is paranormal? No.  But by far this is some of the strongest evidence we have ever had as far as answering specific questions.

Audio Evidence

We had numerous audible occurrences during the investigation.  One of the biggest occurred in the Multi-Purpose Room.  We had our home base in the Multi-Purpose Room and there was usually at least 1-2 people in the room at all times.  The curtain on the stage was closed and behind the stage were various pieces of equipment such as a piano and also a cart on wheels.  Every member of the team heard what sounded like the cart wheels squeaking.  This happened numerous times throughout the night.  We had a voice recorder approximately 3-4 feet away from the cart and it very faintly captured the sound once.

While the entire team was in the Multi-Purpose Room taking a break to eat dinner the anti-theft alarm at the front door started going off.   We got up to see if we could find an explanation for the alarm going off but could find none.  The only way we could recreate it was by bringing a book through.  It could’ve been a quirk however it only happened once during the entire 5 hours we were there and the library staff says it doesn’t normally go off by itself.

Jennifer and Joel heard a voice in the Women’s Restroom during an EVP session.  Jennifer asked the question “How long have you been here” and at first she thought she heard a sigh or heavy breath.  However, upon review of the audio, the “breath” was actually a very breathy “forever”.

While the entire team was up in the staff room we heard a scratching noise on a lampshade that was approximately half a foot behind Jennifer’s head.  None of us touched the lampshade at any time and we have no explanation for what we heard.  This was captured on our voice recorders.

Lastly we captured what sounds like a woman screaming while in the Multi-Purpose room.  This happened at the same time we were getting responses to questions with the K2 meter and Josh was experiencing the cold chills/electricity feeling.

Conclusion

This was one of our more active investigations.  We were experiencing things from almost the minute we arrived until we packed our equipment up.  We feel that the library definitely has paranormal activity.  It has been well documented by library staff, patrons, other paranormal investigation teams, and the PI-Team of Utah.

I also received one video clip of the PI-Team of Utah in action.  Check it out.

Special thanks to the members of PI Team of Utah for taking the time to travel all this way to investigate our library.  They are a professional team in all ways and I hope to keep a strong working relationship as time progresses.

2011 The Paranormal Investigations Team of Utah Final Report / Part I

November 30, 2011 on 5:16 pm | In Article | No Comments

I have just received the final written report from the PI Team of Utah.  Here is the report as I received it.

Any EVPs or other audio or digital evidence will be included later.

2011   The Paranormal Investigations Team of Utah

Sweetwater County Library

Date of Investigation: July 27th, 2011

Case Number: 07272011

Location: Sweetwater County Library, Green River, Wyoming

PI Team Members Present: Jennifer, Robert, Jenny, Josh, Nate, Joel

 

History of Location:

The library was constructed on land that was once the first city cemetery.  The cemetery was active on this site from 1892-1926.  In 1926 the city decided to move the bodies to the current Riverview Cemetery.

For approximately 14 years the city used site of the prior cemetery as a park, and then in 1944 they turned the park into houses for Veterans returning from the war.  During construction of the housing, a few bodies were found and reinterred in the Riverview Cemetery up the street.  The construction of these houses would start the trend of bodies being dug up over the next 39 years.

Construction on the Sweetwater County Library began in 1978.  At that time 12 bodies were found and relocated to the Riverview Cemetery.  The library officially opened in 1980.  A few years later in 1983 as the landscaping was being updated, more graves were found and like before moved up the street.  All of the bodies that have been found since the original relocation of the cemetery have been put into mass graves of 12-14 bodies each.

It wasn’t until 1985 that paranormal activity was reported.  It is unknown whether the activity didn’t start until sometime in 1985 or if it was always present but not reported or tracked.

Reported Activity:

The staff of this library has kept an activity log of the paranormal activity since approximately 1993.  The activity reported here ranges from odd noises and voices to full bodied apparitions.

Pre-Investigation:

The PI Team arrived at approximately 5 pm and after a quick update from Micki Gilmore, we were left in the building alone and began to set up our equipment.  We had 4 IR cameras, two handheld video recorders, and a “ghost box”.

Because we had previously investigated the library and Micki had informed us of the most recent activity we focused on the following areas of activity:

Head Librarian’s Office, Upstairs Hallway, Upstairs Break Room, Women’s Restroom, Multi-Purpose Room, and Young Adult Section.

Personal Experiences

A few of our investigators reported at least one personal experience during this investigation.  Here is a breakdown of personal experiences by investigator:

Jennifer: Saw what appeared to be legs in formal black pants walking through the stacks near the Young Adult area.  There was nothing from the knees up and it lasted only a second or two.

Robert & Nate: Felling of being touched and cold spots in upstairs break room.  (This occurred in conjunction to unusual EMF activity)

JoshLIn his own words) One of my teammates, Joel and I were in the Multi-Purpose Room where the PI Team had set up the command center.  At the time we were regrouping and gearing up for the next part of our investigation.  He mentioned that we didn’t have any coverage in that room and it would be a shame if something went down in there that went unnoticed.  At that very moment a K2 meter sitting on the table next to us lit up like a Christmas tree and began pulsing rapidly.  We proceeded to have an “intelligent” conversation via the K2.  We asked baseline questions and then contradicting questions to make sure we were dealing with something other than bad wiring or a faulty meter.  “Are you a male?” it goes dark, with “Are you a female?” it lights up.  This went on for about 5 minutes before Joel asked if they “would like Josh to get closer”.  As soon as he asked the question it went dark.  He then asked if it would like for me to back up and the K2 lit up again.

I took a step back and it felt like I had backed into a meat locker.  I chilled up from head to toe and every hair on my body stood on end.  The interesting part is the feeling intensified into an almost electric feeling.  It somewhat reminded me of rubbing a balloon on my arms as a kid having fun with static electricity, except the feeling enveloped me entirely.  This continued for about 2 minutes until I took a couple steps in the direction of the meter and the feeling went away as quickly as it came on.  I have never felt anything like that before and to be honest it changed the way I feel about personal experiences.

Part II

Once I made the decision, I had a group of friends who went out of their way to help me make it happen.  Josh helped me come up with questions I would want to ask people who wanted investigations done and questions I would want to ask those people who wanted to become members.  Thus the “client interview” and “member interview” forms were born.  From there, we developed many more forms: the information release, member liability release, member application, preliminary investigation report, code of conduct, procedural standards, etc.  I did all the equipment research and buying on my own.  At the age of 27, I procured my first credit card (only a $1500 limit) and proceeded to max it out.  I bought a DVR system with 4 IR cameras, a television, an EMF detector and an audio recorder.  The day the DVR system arrived, I spent HOURS figuring out how to work it.  My poor, neurotic sister had to put up with cameras and cable EVERYWHERE.  She’s a saint for dealing with me!  And to store everything, I had a trusty Rubbermaid bin.

Once I had spoken with friends about who might be interested in joining, we set up a time to investigate a couple of their homes.  At the first investigation, we had seven “members:” Josh, Tom, Keith, Preston, Anne, Liz and myself.  We spent four to five hours investigating this house with quite a history and many ghostly happenings.  A big chunk of that investigative time was spent learning how to set up, get organized and get started.  We caught one EVP that night.  Nothing too exciting but again, we were green.  There could have been quite a number of things that we may have missed.  More importantly this first investigation showed us how efficient we needed to be.

Then the second investigation at another member’s house; It was a pretty quiet night but this was the night I saw the debunking side come out of us in force.  There had been complaints of lights in the living room and an incident that involved a TV “blowing up.”  We used our cars to drive down the streets around the house and discussed many possibilities about what may have caused the TV to explode.  We could not find answers to either of these scenarios.  This investigation brought out our goofy side and made the audio recordings extremely fun to listen to.

Our first “real” investigation came after seeing an article in the Casper Star Tribune about John Huff’s Yellowstone Street apartment building.  The article mentioned a number of ghostly happenings within the building while they were remodeling.  I had an “in.”  One of my old co-workers was good friends with John’s brother.  I got John’s number and called him.  I told him that we were new to investigating and that I had recently read the article in the Tribune.  I told him we were interested in checking out the place.  And he was game!  This was our first investigation dealing with someone outside of the group so things had to go smoothly and professionally.  I was NERVOUS!  I must have gone through all our equipment to make sure we had everything.  And did I have everything…?  Nope.  I was missing a power cable.  Man, I felt like a doofus!   But John proved to be very nice and patient.  He had some great stories about the location and I could feel the passion for what he was doing.

We started out alright.  Set up was done within an hour.  I broke everyone up into teams.  One person was at command the entire time; teams of two roamed the large apartment complex where hidden dangers lurked.  And not all of the ghost kind either.  More like large holes in the floor where you could fall through to the next floor.  But it was fun and creepy and exciting to be in an old building with a history.  It was a cold night though and people were getting chilled and needing potty breaks.  And in an old building with no heat nor working bathrooms, this made the hours-long investigation seem even longer.  John stayed the entire time in another building down the street and would let us come in to get warm and use the bathroom.  Hours later we called it a night, packed up all our equipment (by this time we had suitcases donated to us by another member), rolled them to our cars and headed home.

It took us over a week to go through the evidence.  I learned that to get everyone together on one night for the investigation was work but to get everyone together on a second night to go through evidence was next to impossible.  We found one EVP from the investigation (which is still on our website).  I met with John a week after that to show him what we found.  He and his brother were both very receptive and enjoyed us enough to have us out again for a second investigation.

From this point on, I was the contact person for lining up investigations.  The next year required me to cold call people to ask if they would be willing to let us investigate.  Even though I started the group to investigate the paranormal, deep down I wanted to help people whether it was educating them on other naturally-occurring possibilities or putting them at ease because we experienced the same thing they did.  So to cold call people was a little disheartening.  I wanted people calling us because they needed answers.

There have been some wonderful and some not-so-wonderful things to come out of this group.  I love the people that I’ve met.  I have finally had my “Holy Grail” moment.  I’ve learned how to manage difficult people.  I’ve had to “fire” some people.  I’ve had to play mediator between different belief systems and investigative methods.  I’ve debated about what information to offer people after an investigation.  I’ve argued about the proper scientific method involving psychics.  I’ve had tooth and nail battles about orbs.  I’ve seen my name on websites that don’t say nice things.  I’ve been disappointed with members.  I’ve been close to quitting.  Yes, I’ve had to deal with some things that are extremely irritating about running this type of group but in the end, if we can help one person then it has all been worth it.

Now, the last year has been so busy that we can rarely do those locations that people always ask us about!  But we’re doing exactly what I originally set out to do; to help people.  And folks…that feels good.

Part I

Our tree was a Weeping Willow.  Our song was “Midnight in Montgomery” by Alan Jackson.  We even had secret names.  This was the club I formed when I was eleven.  We were all about ghosts.  Scaring each other with stories; daring each other to go into the basement alone; even using the Ouija board in hopes of contacting a spirit. 

When I try to pinpoint the exact moment I became interested in the paranormal I have some difficulty.  I remember as a child borrowing every book I could get my hands on from the school and public libraries.  I’m sure the librarians and my teachers had an idea about what I might do as a hobby in the years to come but at the time, I just wanted to read anything I could find on the subject.  I loved anything about ghosts, fairies and aliens.  Some of my favorite stories included that of the Bell Witch and another called Angie. 

My grandmother was a huge influence on my paranormal obsession.  She was an avid reader who would buy or recommend books that I might like.  I still have her copy of Time Life’s “Mysteries of the Unexplained.”  Photos and articles of UFOs, aliens, exorcisms and ectoplasm filled my head when I stayed the night at her apartment.  She would tell me stories about being visited by my deceased grandpa at night.  I would stay up in the bedroom just across the hall from hers and listen as hard as I could to see if I could hear him talking to her.  I had a hard time opening my eyes though!  And I will always love her gift of my first Ouija board. 

And I cannot mention my ghost hunting passion without mentioning my older sister, Dana.  Because her mother lived in Douglas, she only stayed with us for short amounts of time.  When I was twelve years old, she came to live with us for a year.  She came from a ranch that had a permanent, spiritual resident named “Barney.”  But Barney apparently followed her to our house.  We were also told that he liked Reba McEntire and hated George Strait.  Whenever either of the musical artists would be playing on the stereo, the volume knob would turn up or down accordingly.  Little did I know that Dana had a remote that controlled the stereo system; she would use to scare my younger sisters and me.  The funny thing about knowing this now is that my parents had paranormal experiences while Dana was living with us.  My mother would hear footsteps upstairs on the wooden flooring; they would continue into the kitchen, down the stairs and come back up.  And this would continue for almost an hour.  She also felt someone watching her while she was in the bathroom.

As I became older, I remember spending the night at friends’ houses or friends staying the night at mine and impatiently waiting until it was dark where we could tell scary stories, play “light as a feather, stiff as a board” and “Bloody Mary.”  The latter of which got me kicked out of a bathroom in 4th grade because I convinced a bunch of kids to try it with me.  Suffice it to say that my ghost hunting hobby has been a long time in the making.

Then throughout junior high, high school and college, my fascination was set on the backburner because homework and work took precedence.  However everyone knew that if they had a “weird” experience they could talk to me and find an engaged listener.  After graduating college, I moved to Vancouver, Washington for a year.  While I was there, I found a paranormal group online that was willing to let me tag along on one of their investigations.  I could not have been more excited!  I got off work at 9:15 PM and met them at an old hotel outside Vancouver.  There must have been around ten members.  We roamed the hallways, took a tour of the grounds and eventually wound up in a board room where they proceeded to grill me with questions.  By this point I was already disappointed.  Everyone had a camera and everyone was exclaiming about all the orbs they were getting in their photos.  Even ten years ago I was not impressed by orbs.  I don’t think the group was very impressed with me.  They didn’t like my answers to their questions and I didn’t like that their “proof” of ghosts were the orbs they found in their pictures.  We were not a good match.  I left that night disappointed to say the least.  I had found people that were excited about the same thing I was but I did not agree with their (and I’m using this term loosely) “investigative” method.  I surprised myself however.  I still called the group afterwards and wanted to be a member.  They would not return my calls (which I can laugh about now but at the time my feelings were hurt!). 

I moved back home in May of 2003 through a transfer in my company.  I was excited to be back.  I still spoke about ghosts and hauntings but I was never active about investigating them.  Finally in December of 2007 I became tired of waiting for someone else to start a group and started my own. 

Part II to follow.

Children are More Open

October 15, 2011 on 4:32 pm | In Article | No Comments

girlandghosts

 When my youngest son was three, he had a visitation.  My great-uncle passed away.  Both my boys were very upset.  That night my husband and I heard our three year old yelling.  We ran into their room which was just outside of ours.  He was sitting up and crying.  We asked him what was wrong.   He said that he didn’t want Uncle Wilson to go.  We of course hugged him and told him that it was ok.  We were all sad.  Now remember that this is a three year old. 

What he said next we will never forget…..he said “NO, he was right here!” and he pointed to the entry to the bedroom with great fervor.  Then he said “He said it was ok, that if I keep him in my heart he would never really go away”.  Every hair on our bodies stood on end.  We had never heard our son talk like this or say the things he had said.  We have no doubt that he saw our beloved Uncle Wilson. 

Since then when we have been talking with family or friends and this story comes up there is always at least one that asks if we are sure that he didn’t just get this from TV or someone else.  I have to say my husband and I have never questioned him on this.  There is no way to prove it of course, but if anyone could have seen him that night they too would not doubt this as truth.

One of my sisters also has a story involving a young child.  Her oldest granddaughter was just four years old.  We were all visiting them in Colorado and had taken our mother along.  The little girl walked up to her grandmother and told her that she needed to tell Great-Grandma something.  So they walked over to my mother and this little girl said “I talk to your mama”.  My mom said “Oh you do?” The little girl then said “Ya, she talks to me and she tells me to tell you hi and that she loves you and that she comes to your house sometimes to check on you”.  You could have heard a pin drop.  We asked her questions about our grandmother.  You might have known she nailed it.  The interesting part is she had never met this grandmother.  This little girl is adopted.  

Yes our family has had some interesting things like this happen.  But if you talk to people you will find that a large percentage of them do have stories just like this.  Why, you may ask do children see what we do not? From what I have read and researched, young children are more open to anything.  They have not learned this is not normal for everyone.  Young minds absorb anything that comes their way.  So if a soul or spirit is lingering or is just hanging around, whom else would you go to if you were that spirit?  My guess is the one that will acknowledge you.

Do you have a story to share?  Please send it in.  We would all love to hear.
