Psychic Impressions:
When Virginia arrived at this residence, she noticed a lot of activity to the left of the home, towards the bedrooms. As Virginia started walking towards the bedrooms, she was greeted by the Spirit of the client's father. The Father began to give Virginia information about the owner's childhood and names of different people the owner could identify with. The Father also gave Virginia his name, which was Frank.

During the walk though, Virginia also encountered a few entities moving around the home as if the home did not exist, as if there were no walls. At that time, Virginia identified this to be a residual haunting. The entities were just moving about, doing the same thing as they did years ago, before there were homes. Virginia picked up American Indians on the property, a farm and an all girl school/camp around the 1930's. Virginia also felt a drowning of a small boy, Samuel, in the back of the home, where there is a babbling brook around the late 1890's to early 1900's and felt Samuel was still there.





Conclusion:
During the investigation on this particular date, investigators did not have any personal experiences nor were they able to document any physical activity leaning towards or against a haunting. Investigators did note that a constant hum was present in the son's room from a guitar amplifier. Upon reviewing a recording from that room during analysis, investigators noted a distinct oscillation when the playback speed was increased or decreased making it more prominent. This “sound pulse” has the ability to interfere with normal brain waive states when sitting quietly or sleeping which may cause imagery or altered dreams, strange feelings or perceptions.

From a metaphysical perspective, Psychic Medium Virginia Centrillo revealed to the owner that his father, who was a very strong Spirit, was trying to make contact with his son to help him heal from his childhood. Virginia felt Frank was not trapped. Virginia believes that with help from The PPA and the clients, they were able to help the spirit of a small boy named Samuel cross over. Virginia gave the clients information on how to keep the energies up in the home and some advice on how to coexist with the residual Spirits of the past.
