two cats.
Reported
Activity: The
clients have reported almost daily activity including hearing
footsteps up and down their stairs, being touched, hearing voices on
every floor and seeing black masses and apparitions throughout the
house. Over the past two years, the family has reported seeing what
they believe are up to about 10 different apparitions. The
family has had a local research team in on two prior occasions who
reported capturing evp’s but did not help the family try to
minimize the activity. The family was requesting assistance reducing
the activity by The PPA

EMF
(Electro Magnetic Field): Standard
baseline readings were taken throughout the residence with expected
spikes near electrical appliances. Elevated fields were measured at
the top of the staircase believed to be caused by the electrical
wiring leading to the light switch at the top of the stairs.
Associated high fields were also measured in the adjacent room on the
other side of the staircase wall, coming from the same wiring.

Michele
– (Psychic
impressions) Michele picked up impressions of what she believed was
the client’s mother creating sounds going up and down the
staircase. Michele felt the presence of two men, believed to be coal
miners in the basement. The presence of a former homeowner was also
felt in the home along with a young girl on the second floor. Michele
also believed a woman who was unable to walk was present in the 2nd
floor rear bedroom. Along with these living spirits, Michele related
sensing a residual haunting or an “imprint” on the second floor
of a man and a woman, believed to be former residence of the home and
an imprint of men working in the attic area of the home. Finally,
Michele stated she felt like along with all this activity, she
believed that the residence had some drifting” spirits that would
just walk through the home from time to time.
Conclusion: During
the investigation on this particular date, investigators were not
able to document any audio or video evidence of paranormal activity.
No notable personal experiences were noted by any of the
investigators, except for the information gained through Michele’s
psychic impressions and the home appeared to be very quiet.
The
clients reported seeing apparitions in the front, 2nd
floor bedroom in the area we found to have elevated emf levels. The
elevated levels, combined with what Michele believes is an energy
imprint in this area, is most likely the cause of the apparitions
being witnessed in this area. The high fields could also be a
catalyst for the activity surrounding the footsteps on the staircase,
helping to allow a manifestation in this area.
Based
solely on this one night investigation, there is insufficient
evidence to determine scientifically if a haunting is taking place or
if other factors are influencing the location and its residents.
However, based on the large amount of witness accounts, the
overwhelming amount of psychic impressions that the family validated
as being correct historically and correlating with current activity
and factoring in the client’s request for help, The PPA moved
beyond the scientific investigation to try and bring some closure to
the family. We asked psychic medium Michele Jones to help the family
cross over the spirits that she felt were present. Some time was
spent working with each of the spirits believed to be present and
Michele felt that she and the family were successful in crossing many
of the spirits. The family indicated that they felt a noticeable
difference in activity on this night and the home appeared to be much
quieter. Michele also advised the family that the energy imprint she
was feeling would not be easy to remove and that the family would
most likely continue to notice some effects such as seeing a man and
woman in the front bedroom area on the second floor and hearing
knocks and bangs coming from what she felt was an imprint of workers
in the attic area.
The
PPA will continue to work with the family and monitor the location
for future activity. |
