Images, Video and EVP's.

After much debating, we decided to see if maybe we could reach a common ground with our unseen guest. In a nutshell, this family needs some peace and quiet. So, this is the Video, pictures and EVP's that we captured during our "amateur" Investigation.
These images were captured during the flashlight turning itself off and on, seemingly in response to our questions. Notice the small translucent ball of light just to the top left of the flashlight. We're not saying that it's paranormal. But it is odd that these images out of 50 were the only ones to show this.

The flashlight seemingly turns off and on in response to our questions. I know if the flashlight is set to super sensitive this can occur. But that's not the case here. You will notice in the video that I actually move and readjust the flashlight without it coming on.

There is a small digital recorder on the table just to the right of the flashlight.

This EVP was a response to a "thank you," it appears to say, "OK."

On taking the advice of a friend, we were trying to find out which room in our home it was residing in when asked about Lacie's room.(Which is a Pit Bull) We seem to get get a direct NO. LOL! But we were aware it doesn't like the dogs. So why not just go away, right? Guess spirits aren't really that smart.....and I'm a blond! LOLOLOL

Fresh Ideas.

I was talking with a friend today, that had some excellent ideas for dealing with our "presence."
Some of them, I had never really considered. But, if this presence is doing things to get our attention, then there has got to be a reason for it to want to make contact. Right? (Made sense to me.) So maybe we can find out why it is trying to get our attention. Just possibly, it is upset because we are trying to force it out when it hasn't got its message across? (That made sense to me too.) So maybe we can find out why it's here, and what it wants. And if it doesn't want to communicate with us, and listen to what we have to say about this in our home, then it will have to leave.(This is something we haven't tried. And at this point, I'm willing to try anything, if it will just let up on its stupid spook factor that keeps me awake at night. NO, I'm not afraid of this thing. But I am highly annoyed with it not letting me sleep. I really don't think it can scare me, I mean, unless it slams me into a wall, or hurls me across the room. Then I might be a little shook up.LOL! But anyway, as a family, we are going to try this tonight. We will naturally have tapes and cams running.So look for the update tomorrow.(Wish us luck.

Blissfully quite, for me at least.

I finally got a good nights sleep.Which means, good for me. Bad for Marty.
Marty was waking up around three again this morning.It was about the same time that the scream had happened the night before.He didn't hear or see anything. He was just suddenly woke up.

Our DIL said she was waking up around two thirty to our grandson screaming horribly.That is something he hasn't done since all of this first started. She said it sort of unnerved her.There was no reason for him to be screaming that way.

So if this is how it's going to be for me to get some sleep. I will gladly be the one to be awake just so my family can sleep peacefully.
I've already gotten used to cat napping during the day anyhow. LOL!

Footsteps

As Marty and I sit at our computers having coffee. We are listening to footsteps walk across our ceiling.
This is a first.I haven't heard this before.Makes me wonder, how the day......and night are going to be.

Wonder why we're up at 5 am..

To start off with, we did go to the old school house to poke around a bit. We didn't get anything on the cam, but we did get an EVP that I will post later.

The scratching wasn't there last night, so I was looking forward to a good night sleep and finally sleeping in this morning. But noooooo, that's NOT going to happen in this house.I woke to our Boston growling at the foot of the bed. And my husband saying, Did you hear that?. I said I heard Levi. And he said, No, before that. I said, no, I was sleeping. He said something had screamed outside. We got up to go investigate. Just as I started down the hall, I met our DIL, she was in tears. She said, did you guys hear that? I told her to sit down at the table, and we would be right there. We had a quick peek out the back door, then went back to check on her. As it turned out. Her little dog that stays outside had started barking.Along with one of our older Pits that only barks at Thunder, gunshots and fireworks. This had alerted Marty while we were still in the bed.Well our DIL had gone outside to quieten her little dog.Just as she bent over to touch her dog. What seemed to be, a kid screamed beside her.(Which I think would have scared the holy crap out of anyone!) This is the same scream that Marty had heard earlier. We sat at the table for a bit and talked. Then we all went back to bed. Marty and I couldn't go back to sleep. So we're up now.
On a brighter note, there wasn't any scratching last night.Next time, I will be a bit more specific in what I ask for...

Later today, we're going to take a family trip up to Stump House Tunnel, do a bit of hiking.Naturally, i will have the cam and recorder.Maybe we can get some fun stuff for ya.:)

A haunted School?

Well, we are finally going to check out the old school house that is right above us.My mom said this place was old when she was a little girl. So, we're going to check it out.It could possibly be tied to some of our activity.I will be posting pictures, and any EVP's we capture a bit later. (Wish us luck!

Exhausted

The scratching started up @ 1:30 this morning. It seems to be getting louder. I don't think I got but a couple hours of sleep last night. It's going to be a rough day.

Scratching

I was sound asleep last night. All curled up with my husband and female pit bull. When i heard a strange noise that woke me from a deep sleep.I lay there quietly and listened.There it was again,a scratching coming from inside the bed room wall. This time my Pit Amy heard it, as she raised her head and alerted to it. Before settling back down beside me. Her actions let me know that it wasn't a mouse. Amy would have been off the bed in a flash, pawing and whining at the wall.While tilting her head back and forth listening to the faint mouse sounds. But this scratching had been pretty loud. Naturally i told myself it was a mouse, and tried to go back to sleep. It was no easy task...

At the same time, my DIL was up in another part of the house. She said she had woke up terrified, but she didn't know why. She came into the dinning room to smoke.Then didn't want to go back to bed. She said that she was actually afraid to go back to her own bed room.
No one in my home should ever have to feel uncomfortable. I don't like that at all.

A bit quieter

Things seem to be quieter now than they have been in years.The only thing that has happened recently is my being touched as I was trying to drift off to sleep.Other than that. It has been blessedly quite. (Makes me wonder, if it's going to pick up again)

Now here's the kicker. :)
My mother lives right next door to us. She and I were talking a couple of days ago.She said she had come home from church one evening, and went to her bedroom to change. As she was changing, she heard strange music playing very softly.She started looking around to see if she could find it.As she got closer to her walk-in closet, it got a bit louder.She opened the door, and there on the floor was the source of the music. It was our grandsons baby swing. It has been in her closet for months, wrapped up in a plastic bag. There is no way it can come on by itself. Two separate switches have to be turned to make it play music.But there it sat. Playing music! She called for my dad to come in there and see it. But just as he got to her bedroom doorway, it stopped. So naturally, I wonder, if whatever was at our house, is now next door? Is that possible? I know there is no way in the world my mother would ever lie about anything. She is the belief that she is not risking her salvation by telling a lie. This had her kind of upset. Now when the Investigators come back in the fall, she wants them to come to her house too. And I can't say that I blame her.

Marty has been doing a lot of research on the land and the history of it. He has found quite a few interesting things. But I will get him to post some time soon, and tell you all about it. Guess that's it for now. And I'm not going to say that I'm sorry I didn't have more creepy stuff to tell about. I'm kinda happy I didn't! :)
