Brief
Home and Property Description & History: A ranch style home probably built in the late 1940’s or early 1950’s. The house consisted of 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom and full basement. The house was purchased approximately 6 years ago by the current owners. They lived at the home for about 4 years. The male homeowner retired and it was decided that they would move back to their hometown and use the house as rental property for extra income. The home has been rented for the past two years and has been rented to at least 3 separate individuals. All have made claims that the house is haunted and have moved out because of the ongoing activity. |

Current
Owner Reportings: +
One renter moved out after only living there for 1 week claiming that she
was constantly awakened by a dark shadow holding her down on her bed. Her
roommate stayed on and later moved out making the same claims. +
The homeowner and several renters have reported seeing a dark figure in
the basement that comes up to the top step of the basement and then
disappears. +
Renters have reported seeing objects being thrown around in the basement. + Renters have reported seeing strange lights hovering near the basement ceiling. |

Reported
Findings and Experiences: +MPR had a very interesting and active night in the
house. +
While setting up equipment, Brenda was descending the basement steps when
she heard a loud bang come from the basement area. The basement was empty
except for a few paint cans left by the previous renter. The source of the
noise could not be determined. This noise was heard several times
throughout the night. The furnace and air-conditioning units were turned
off. +
An unidentified anomaly was observed on the surveillance camera which was
positioned on the basement floor, aiming up towards the basement steps.
Unfortunately we did not have a recorder attached to this camera. This
anomaly was witnessed by both Brenda and Misty. Brenda described it as
looking like a piece of white PVC piping that was being swung while Misty
described it as looking like a shoulder and an arm. This anomaly was not
picked up by the other camcorder recording in the basement however there
was a moth flying around. Although this anomaly did not look like a moth,
we cannot rule out the possibility that it flew low enough to the ground
and close enough to the camera lens to cause a disillusion. +
Video audio picked up almost constant noises in the basement which could
not be explained. Early in the investigation, these noises sounded like
someone was working down in the basement, moving things around, etc.
Later in the investigation, these
noises changed and became the sounds of someone constantly running up and
down the basement steps, panting, a low growling sound and something
slapping concrete. While viewing the video’s it was first thought that
the sound of the team moving around upstairs was echoing through the duct
system, but the more audio and video tapes we listened to, the more we
were able to determine that these sounds were not being created by
movement upstairs. There would be a series of what sounded like something
running up and down the stairs that would stop for awhile. Then you would
hear the sound of panting (sometimes accompanied by a low growl.) After
what seemed like a short rest period the footsteps would start up again.
Sometimes it sounded like the steps were being taken at a normal stride
while other times the footsteps sounded more rapid and frantic. This noise
was almost constant, continuing even when the team was outside. The only
times it stopped was when the team actually entered the basement. After
sharing this information, Misty felt that these sounds were created by the
negative entity that was revealed during the clearing. After the team
settled down for the night, noises continued in the basement but became
more like the sounds of someone working and dragging something around in
the basement. +
Just after two orbs were recorded on video camera in the basement, what
looked like a partially formed foot was recorded coming from the center of
the basement, rounding the basement steps and walking towards the camera.
This anomaly was very slow moving. It moved too slow for a moth or an orb.
+
While Misty was walking past the northwest bedroom a loud knocking sound
came from inside the northwest bedroom door which was closed at the time.
This was witnessed by all team members present who were sitting in the
living room when the incident occurred. Listen to audio recording of these
knocks: “Knock,
Knock, Mother…” +
While in the kitchen preparing some snacks, Linda heard the basement door
rattle. +
24 EVPs were recorded throughout the evening. This included 14 EVPs in the
living room, 3 in the north bedroom, 2 in the south bedroom and 4 in the
basement. The majority of these EVPs sounded like an elderly gentleman,
however a few sounded like a young man, possibly in his late teens or
20’s. The younger voice seemed to be present for just a short time, as
if just dropping by for a visit then leaving a short while later. These
EVPs are listed below with a short description of what was occurring or
being said at the time of the recording. There were no male investigators
or guests present at anytime during this investigation. The
following EVPs were recorded in the living room: +
Not long after arriving, Linda was asking how the EMF meter worked when a
raspy male voice responded with “Jumbles
Electric…” +
A young male voice is recorded saying “Hi Everybody”
after
some of the team members returned from running an errand in town. +
This being Linda’s first
overnight with us, she mentions that she brought extra underwear just in
case she needs them. The younger male voice is recorded saying what sounds
like “Sexiness.” +
While the team was taking a
break outside, several EVP’s of the raspy male voice were recorded in
the living room saying “Yeah” “Deadly or Headley” “Heard
He Had a Month Up Here” “My Down Spouts”
and “Yeah,
I
Like My Roof”.
You could
hear the team talking in the background but could not make out what was
being said at the time. It is unknown rather he was responding to
something said during our conversation or possibly speaking with the
younger male spirit who seemed to have dropped by. Based on the comments
made, it would seem that he was conversing with someone else. +
Misty was asked to listen to a recording of a female voice that was
recorded at another location. After making a comment about the EVP the
male voice said, “That’s How You Play Along.” +
The former tenants had turned the water off and the toilet had some stale
urine in it which began to smell. After one of the team members made a
comment about the smell, the raspy male voice responded with
“That’s
Terrible People.” +
It was decided to move Misty video camera to the basement after the
surveillance camera picked up an unidentified anomaly. While Misty was
retrieving her camera from the northeast bedroom, Brenda was in the
hallway walking towards the living room when the raspy male voice was
recorded saying, “I’m Right Behind You, You’re Walkin Away.” +
Later
in the evening the team went outside for another break. Linda, who is a
police officer was sharing a story about being nice to someone she had
arrested earlier that week. Apparently we had unseen company as a male
voice made the following comment, “That’s All He’s After.” +
Linda
was goofing around and pretending to flirt with the male ghost present
when Ali made a comment about him possibly being a boob man. Just after
her comment, the male voice was recorded saying what sounds like, “And
a Bush.” +
The last EVP recorded in the living room was recorded just after the team
lay down to get some sleep. We were laughing amongst ourselves as no one
wanted to sleep by the basement door. Our male ghost apparently enjoyed
our presence as he made the following final comment: “Have
a Good Time.” Other
EVPs recorded throughout the investigation: +
Shortly after we arrived and while setting up the equipment a male voice
was recorded in the north bedroom saying,
“Hold
On.” This
same male voice was recorded two more times in this room saying “After You Left Me”
and “I
Know One.” There
were no team members present in the house during these two recordings,
however in the south bedroom and about the same time as the previous EVPs
were recorded a female voice was recorded saying, “I
Know”
and “Will You Help Me.”
This
was the only recordings of the female voice during the investigation. +
4 EVPs were recorded in the basement along with several unidentified
sounds. The EVPs are as follows: After changing over tapes in the
equipment running downstairs, Misty decided to try shake up the energy and
asked the old man to try to bring his energy to her. While doing this a
male voice was recorded saying, “Do
You Want It To Be More of That?” It
was just after this incident downstairs that the loud knocking on the
bedroom door occurred upstairs. While the team was outside on break, there
were several unidentified noises which sounded similar to someone working
downstairs. You can hear a bang and then a male voice saying, “Dang
It.”
Later during another equipment check, a male voice was recorded on audio
video saying, “Wait Til Tonight.” When
Brenda returned to do the last check on the equipment for the evening, a
male voice was again recorded on video audio saying, “You’re
Pretty.” Because
we do not currently have the equipment necessary to transfer video to
computer files, these two EVPs are not available as audio files.
+
A series of orb photos were taken in the hallway after Misty stated that
the old man was standing there. This orb was captured on 5 different
cameras at this time and several of the cameras captured this orb in
sequential photos.

Psychic
Readings: +There’s
an older male that died in this house. He’s upset because he was a left
alone and nobody cared about him. His kids didn’t want anything to do
with him anymore because he didn’t really have anything left to leave
them. +There
was either a step-child or a child he had from another relationship that
he hadn’t seen for a long time. +
He was angry. He doesn’t like a whole lot of people in his house. He
does like kids. He doesn’t want to hurt the kids. +
He likes hanging out in the corner of the basement. It’s almost like he
wants to grab your feet from underneath the steps. This is his spot.
(Northwest corner of basement.) +
When he goes upstairs, he’ll leave this corner, go under the steps and
go to that corner (Northeast corner of basement) and float up to the
bedroom. +
He had a stroke and they didn’t find him for a few days. He had the
stroke upstairs in the hallway by the bathroom. He lay on the floor for
two days and couldn’t call for help. Then he died. It was two more days
before anyone found him. +
I’m getting the last name Grant. He doesn’t want to leave. This is his
home. +
He can go up the stairs, but it’s like when he gets up the steps he
can’t go past the doorway. +
He’s not trusting of us. He’s not sure what we’re going to do to
him. +
He’ll hover upstairs in that northeast bedroom. I think that’s
probably the bedroom where the tenants have seen him. +
The man is about 71 or 72 years old. He is tall, heavy-set, has grey hair
and is wearing a plaid shirt. He also has on some sort of work pants. He
used to do a lot of work in the basement. + Following the investigation, Linda did some internet research which turned up a newspaper article that was published in 1964 concerning a death that occurred in the town our investigation took place. According to the article, a 71 year old man was found dead in his home several days after he suffered a stroke. The entire newspaper article was unavailable without a subscription so the exact address or name of the victim is still unknown. However archive files from the area are in the process of being searched. |

MPR
SUMMARY +
Evidence supports that the house was indeed haunted. We captured numerous
EVPs, photos of the same orb from several cameras taken at the same time,
knocking on the bedroom door, recorded and/or witnessed some unexplained
noises and anomalies in the basement, etc. We feel this investigation was
one of our better investigations, had a great time and wish to thank the
current owners for allowing us the opportunity. +
MPR conducted a clearing before leaving the house. During the clearing,
Misty indicated that a negative entity was present and when MPR brought it
into the circle, Ali became very nauseated and pale. She did not recover
until after Misty had finished smudging the house. + MPR will not know if the clearing was successful until the house is occupied by another tenant, however we did feel that the house felt much more comfortable after the clearing and smudging. |
