Paranormal / Spiritual News: Family Endures Terror, Famous Poltergeist and Hollywood Haunts

Family endures series of terrifying events

mcdowellnews - More than 30 years ago, a family in New England started to experience a series of terrifying events that would seek to drive them from their home. Most families who went through what they went through would flee their house. But this one did not.

The series of weird events took place in the late 1970s through the early 1980s. Websites devoted to this legend don’t seem to specify the location but simply state that this family lived in a New England town. Paranormal researchers have also not disclosed the actual name of this family in order to protect their privacy. Instead, investigators with the Psychical Research Foundation have given them the last name of Berini. Their first names have also been changed.

It all started when the father, who is called Joe Berini, decided to move his family into his ancestral home in the unnamed New England town. Joe had grown up in this house and some of his family members had died there too. Joe moved in with his wife, who is called Rose, and her two children from a previous marriage, who are called John and Daisy.

One night in May 1979, Rose reported hearing a strange disembodied voice in the house. It sounded like that of a little girl, she later reported. The first time she heard it, it said, “Mama, mama, this is Serena.”

None of the Berinis knew who Serena was or what this message might mean. But later, Joe learned that his father had a sister named Serena who died in the house at the age of 5 more than 50 years before. The very next day after Rose first heard Serena’s voice, her daughter Daisy was taken for a scheduled appointment to have her tonsils taken out. Something went wrong during the surgery. Daisy’s heart failed and she nearly died on the operating table, according to a website.

The girl’s voice was heard on several more occasions and it appeared to become an omen that something bad would soon happen. The family heard the voice the night before Joe’s grandmother suffered a stroke, and again right before the grandmother passed away. On another occasion, Joe was awakened by Serena’s voice to find his wife Rose choking in her sleep. When he awoke her, Rose said she had been having a nightmare about her ex-husband trying to strangle her.

Then, the ghostly voice stopped. From late 1979 to March 1981, the family encountered nothing more out of the ordinary. But in that spring of 1981, a new series of weird phenomena would haunt the Berinis. One night, Rose was startled by seeing the ghost of a small boy, dressed completely in white, walking along the upstairs hallway. The boy’s spirit appeared again a week and a half later. This time he spoke to Rose. “Where do all the lonely people go? Where do I belong?” the apparition asked her, according to a website.

Joe would also see the mysterious boy in white. He went to the place where the ghost appeared and began to check it out. Curious, Joe pulled up the floorboards and found a medallion of the Virgin Mary underneath. He remembered that his father’s younger brother called Giorgio had died in the house at the age of 8. The boy was buried in his all-white suit from his first Communion.

The spirit of Giorgio began to appear frequently to Joe and Rose over the next few months. The ghost would respond to their questions and seemed distressed. It would mention family members that Joe had not thought of for a long time. As the ghost vanished for the last time, the telephone next to Joe and Rose’s bed was thrown off the night table by an invisible force. This was the beginning of the weird poltergeist activity that would terrorize the Berinis in the weeks and months to come.

Poltergeist of Alex Higgins Haunts Belfast Apartment

thesun - A mum who moved into the flat where Alex Higgins died says she is being HAUNTED by the snooker legend.

Amanda Miller, 40, is terrified as the poltergeist of the potting ace nicknamed Hurricane breezes through every night.

The apartment was cleared after cancer-stricken Higgins, 61, was found dead there in July.

Amanda said: "Most of his stuff may be gone but his presence lives on."

There are mysterious bangs - and a painting falls from the wall at precisely 6.30pm each day.

One morning she even found the old fridge that Higgins left behind had been shifted and plugged in.

Amanda, who moved into the small Belfast flat seven weeks ago, said: "I thought it was a great move because it is so handy for the shops.

But since I moved in it hasn't felt right and all these unexplained things are getting to me.

I sleep on the sofa in the living room because I can't bear to sleep in his bedroom."

But she is staying put. Amanda plans to ditch the fridge and redecorate the flat in a bid to banish the spook.

Paranormal / Spiritual News: Mother's Poltergeist Fears, Christmas Ghost Story and SRI Northeast Connecticut Case

A Mother's Poltergeist Fears

wigantoday - A young mum is calling in an exorcist amid fears she is sharing her new home with a poltergeist.

Student midwife Holly Taylor and her two-year-old daughter Willow will no longer sleep at the apartment in Pemberton town centre after a terrifying series of events.

And few people the 22-year-old has told are doubting her because many have witnessed ghostly goings-on too.

The building stands on the site of the former Pemberton Police Station in Ormskirk Road, which had a reputation for being haunted.

An officer who used to work there today confirmed the station was notorious for unexplained footsteps and doors banging, and that the culprit was believed to be the ghost of an inspector who hanged himself in a cell.

In the last four months Holly has experienced:

Plates flying off the kitchen work surface and smashing on the floor;

Ornaments and other objects being moved around or knocked over while she is out;

Footsteps and the front door being opened despite her having the only key;

All the flat’s lights being switched back on after she has gone to bed;

The electric smoke alarm going off randomly;

Drawers in Willow’s bedroom being opened and emptied while the tot sleeps.

Holly said: “I love this place and I don’t want to move, but something needs to be done to give me peace.

“It is scary what is going on but I also feel like my privacy is being invaded.

“I have spoken to several people and some have experienced or heard of things happening here when it was the police station.

“The lady in the next flat said that a cup had flown at her out of a cupboard once but she had tried to convince herself that it was some kind of accident.

The man down the corridor says he has heard footsteps while there’s no-one there.

“I’ve heard about the hanged policeman, but also about a child who might have died even before it was a police station.”

Holly moved into the flat in June, and says that while she had occasional uneasy feelings over the first few weeks, the first dramatic incident took place one August evening when she and boyfriend Jordan O’Neill were watching TV and Willow was asleep.

It was while a trailer for the movie The Last Exorcism was on screen that Holly said, “I’m not watching that”, and turned away to see several plates in the kitchen crash to the floor

In late October, Holly was in the flat on her own.

She said: “I tidied up, switched off all the lights and went to bed at midnight.

“I had become scared of the dark since moving in, so as soon as I was in my bedroom, I turned on the telly for comfort and went to sleep with it on.

“I was woken up at 3am by the sound of the front door opening and thought someone was in the house.

“I rang the police on my mobile and when I came out of the bedroom to answer the door to them, I found all the lights had been switched on, and the security chain, which I had fastened before going to bed, was hanging down and still swinging.

“I was convinced someone had been in my flat so I rang the letting agents Reeds Rains the next day. I wanted to know who else had a key, but they assured me no one else did.

“I am getting so paranoid that I am beginning to take pictures of things in the flat on my mobile before I go out to see whether they’ve moved when I get back.

“My mum (Diane McKay) felt a presence very early on, and refuses to babysit here.”

Reeds Rains is on the ground floor of the building and staff know about the hauntings.

Negotiator Denise Edge said: “I’ve not seen or heard anything but other people have.

“Our mortgage adviser was in on his own the other week and had locked up before doing some work when he heard footsteps.

“But when he went to look, no one was there.”

And the police officer, who asked not to be named, said: “The old Pemberton Police Station had a reputation for being haunted.

“Every time there was an unexplained noise around the place, everyone would say ‘it’s Bert the ghost again’.

“There was one officer who refused to be in there on his own.”

Northeast Connecticut Haunting - SRI

Case Description: A family experiencing major activity throughout their home, but especially on the 2nd floor. The client, who is a paranormal investigator, had collected EVP evidence and conversed with the spirits. Alarmed by the recent events, the client contacted me today (after finding the Astral Perception group page on Facebook). Irene and I were able to talk to the client via Skype and speaker phone.

The client was instructed to go into the most troubled room on the 2nd floor so Irene could remotely sense the entity. She was able to move the entity away from the client and into an adjoining room. Because the energy of this entity is so high the client could physically tell where it was and told Irene the sensations she felt. As well, I was getting the same electric sensations as the client though I was almost 400 miles away from her.

Irene and I suspect this malevolent spirit may have attached itself to the client during one of their recent paranormal investigations. Because of that, the earthbound spirits that were already in or near the house are clashing with this new entity...causing intense disturbance and unusually high energy.

We have asked the client to forward the EVPs and to take photos through the house in order to determine what we will be facing. After the evidence has been examined Irene will attempt to remotely clear the house with the assistance of the client and myself. We will post evidence as soon as possible...we're still working other cases.

----------

EVPs were forward by the client...unfortunately, these were of little value to the investigation due to quality and previous editing by the client. The links to this evidence can be found at Northeast Connecticut Haunting - EVP links

----------

Irene and I conducted a remote view on this case on Monday, 12/6/10.

Irene set the target coordinates for me and monitored the session. We systematically executed 4 phases in order to perceive the target and to gather as much information possible.

In Phase 1, the coordinates (a set of two - four digit numbers) were given to me...from which an ideogram (a graphic symbol that represents an idea or concept) was developed. The target was a chosen point in time which may have been contributing to the problems that where being experienced in the house. This does not mean that this was the actual cause of the problem but that it could have proffered to it. By probing the ideogram, 'descriptors' (the function of describing) were used to determine the nature of the target. Several attempts with the same target coordinates were done in order to get a average assessment.

In Phase 2, the target vignette was narrowed by probing for sounds, textures, temperatures, colors, luminescence, contrast and smells. Through this information I was able to focus in on any verticals, horizontals, diagonals, topography, mass and energetics as well as my overall 'feeling' of the target.

In Phase 3, I made a rough sketch or drawing of what I was perceiving. At this point, the sketch included a hallway with a stairwell and a small door nearby. There were other open doorways throughout the hallway.

In Phase 4, I went into a deeper perception of the target. This included sense, magnitudes, emotions, physicals, subspace and concepts. There were other specifics used...but at this point there was no systematic procedure because the observations are starting to come together into a primary deduction.

The overall impression was that there was one entity present at that time, a large man dressed in blue denim overalls. This started at a point where I perceived that this entity (in life) had killed a pet dog because it had attacked him or someone else. The entity was very distraught because of this and walked up and down the hallway, changing emotions throughout...becoming curious and looking into the rooms on one side of the hallway then becoming emotional again when approaching the area where he killed the dog.

I also perceived a group of 3 people sitting on the floor in one of the bedrooms. I recognized at least 1 of the people as a girl or young woman and thought the other 2 may have been female as well. I noticed a burning candle which was cone-shaped placed in the middle of the circle created by the 3 seated people.

There was a dark apparition floating above the trio and would constantly change shape and clarity. After a few minutes, I heard dogs barking and noticed that the first entity was running down the hallway towards the stairwell and simply vanished through the wall to the outside. It was like the entity had been frightened by something.

I realized I was still in the hallway outside the bedroom door when I noticed a entity form nearby. It was a tall thin man dressed in a 1830-40s dress suit with a high top hat...seemed to be English. Then shortly, this clothes changed to those of a American whaler's uniform. The word 'Newburyport' was prominently sensed. He appeared to be a very confident person with a wide grin on his face. He stood by me in the hallway peering into the same bedroom the 3 people were seated.

At this point, we stopped the session and discussed the findings. Irene suggested that this house may have been built on a ley line or energy line and that spirits of all sorts where able to move in and out of the property.

Irene and I don't feel that these entities are dangerous but are bothersome to the client in the form of astral chatter.

Stay tuned for more information in this case...Lon

----------

Irene contacted me today and stated that she thought she had moved at least one entity from the house last evening (10pm-2am ET). I contacted the client who stated that she had witnessed light anomalies in her bedroom between 10-10:30pm and said that the activity then suddenly ceased.

It is our opinion that the location is situated on an energy line or ley line (possible multiples) that either runs directly through or near the house.

We will continue to monitor the location as well as provide support to the client...Lon

A Christmas Ghost Story: The Enfield Poltergeist

Londonist - Throughout London’s dark history and ghost lore, the case of the Enfield poltergeist remains one of the most bizarre and astonishing. Between 1977 and 1979 this haunting was investigated by one Maurice Grosse who, two years previous had lost his daughter in a crash. He felt that the Enfield mystery was meant for him, but little did he realise just how potent and everlasting the story would remain.

The three-bedroom semi-detached house was was run by single parent Peggy Hodgson, and inhabited by her four children. Eleven-year old Janet was the first to recognise strange utterings in the form of odd knocking noises but such disturbances were considerably minor in comparison to what was about to occur.

Larger objects in the house began to be pushed around, doors slammed, windows opened, loud banging noises reverberated around the home, alarming the children more and more as they intensified. Then, the unknown shifter of objects dealt a violent blow to one of the young children, a small boy, and WPC Caroline Heaps visited the house, and was shocked to see a chair floating in the middle of a room.

Then, things became extremely serious as children, particularly young Janet, were attacked in their beds, strangulation was attempted, bed sheets were strewn and Peggy’s nine-year old son Billy had a lucky escape when an iron grate crashed onto his bed as he slept, thrown by an invisible assailant.

Despite the serious nature of incidents, many locals believed the ‘ghost’ to be nothing more than a hoax perpetrated by the family, but the Society of Psychical Research, and leading member Maurice Grosse, suggested something unknown to blame. When Janet, and her sister Margaret began speaking in demonic tongue, the case took a disturbing turn. Pools of water began appearing throughout the house, and in the end more than fifteen separate cases were witnessed by many people.

Why Janet was singled out we’ll never know, but investigators believed that it was the spirit of an old man who died in the house which may have caused the torment. His name, a Bill Hobbs from Durant’s Park graveyard. Unfortunately for Peggy Hodgson, she had to put up with the awful phenomenon until one day it ceased, never to return, making the Enfield poltergeist one of London’s most fascinating yet eerie events.

Minnesota lounge offers fare not on the menu

fox21online - Speaking without a voice, a spirit communicates with paranormal research team PROPHET Minnesota.

"Can you give us a sign?” Investigators said into the dark.

At Two Harbors Blackwoods Lodge, employees, some fearing identification, say they have already seen proof.

"A security camera blinked on, there was nothing, then all of a sudden we had an apparition that was floating about yay-high off the ground,” the employee, wishing to remain anonymous, said while putting his hand near hip-level.

"Is what they're experiencing really paranormal or can it be explained by a more logical sense,” PROPHET investigator Brian DeLong questioned.

Employees continue telling tales of hauntings.

"[A waitress] was over here [by the tables] and right here she saw a little girl,” the employee said.

"You're thinking only three cameras maybe?” an investigator asked DeLong.

“Probably five,” DeLong said. "And, then one at the very bottom where supposedly a girl would be laying."

As the story goes, way back when Blackwoods was still an orphanage, a little girl slipped down some stairs and snapped her neck. Her ghost, affectionately known as Sarah to staff, now apparently roams the building.

Although employees have never had a problem with Sarah, she still has free range of the entire kitchen including access to dozens of sets of knives.

"Some people,due to Hollywood and stuff, automatically start thinking demonic," DeLong said.

"Do you not like this area?” Investigators asked the darkness. "The stairs are kind of dangerous. Maybe we should shut the door."

Using infrared cameras, sound recording equipment, and electromagnetic frequency meters, PROPHET members say they can search out the entity causing anxiety.

"Things moving, just the occasional odd feeling of not being alone in a room,” DeLong said.

Near the bar, a flashlight clicked on and off during the search.

"I think we got that captured pretty good,” DeLong said review video.

Next, PROPHET captured an audio-recording which they interpreted as saying “fall”.

It was recorded by the killing stairs. But, without any dramatic evidence, results can't be fully conclusive for Blackwoods employees.

DeLong, however, has a warning.

"Every now and again, you'll catch a shadow that ain't supposed to be there." - www.fox21online.com

This restaurant located in the heart of Two Harbors, Minnesota, has a few unseen patrons who like to roam around the premises. While this location has a short past history since it was built in 1994, that doesn't mean that it isn't a home to ghosts.

Located a short drive off of scenic highway 61 along Minnesota's North Shore, Blackwoods Restaurant offers its visitors a ghostly experience in several ways.

One ghost is said to be a lady in white who mysteriously disappears in front of your eyes! Several staff members have been spooked by this mysterious female and have no explanation for her residence in the restaurant.

Other employees have claimed to hear phantom footsteps in the restaurant when no one else is around. The odd thing is that these footsteps often follow the staff member around the building.

A former book keeper at the establishment felt that the ghost followed her home one night. When laying in bed, her husband claims to have felt the impression of a body getting into bed next to him. Assuming it was his wife, he turned over and said hello, only to his surprise that no one was in bed!

The waitressing staff has had experiences of what they claim to be someone breathing on their neck with a very cold chill.

One of the cleaning staff members at the restaurant claims to have seen this young woman in the restaurant during her shift one night. The apparition appeared to have wiped her hand across the top of one of the tables as if she was inspecting the cleanliness of that table.

Another member of this cleaning staff has had an experience while organizing the coat hangers on the coat rack. She turned around and found out that her organization was ruined by unseen hands as they were all pushed to one side of the rack. - www.minnesotaghosts.com

Comment to the article: Nothing was mentioned in the article about the spirit of the little girl... I've heard all those stories, and I've experienced the cold chill on my neck as well, but the largest part of my Blackwoods experience involved the little girl. From what I have heard around Two Harbors, there was once an orphange in that location and a little girl fell down a staircase to her death. Apparently, this girl targets women with long hair (which I have, and it was definately involved...) and she even has a name, Sarah. I didn't know this during my visit (lucky for me, my name happens to be Sarah!!!), but I found it out later. This little girl is a troubled spirit, but I don't think that she is harmful. She is not as powerful as the spirit of the woman, but she is still a spirit none the less. After my visit, I had several strange dreams involving a young girl that I believe to be the spirit of Sarah. She wears a yellow dress and her hair is long and dark. In the dreams, she was clutching a blonde baby doll in a dirty white dress. She never spoke, but she looked extremely sad and very lost.

This Two Harbors bar harbors more than just employees and patrons. In the early 20th century, the Blackwoods Bar and Grill's building was an orphanage. Rumor has it that a young girl living in the orphanage fell down a flight of stairs and died. Reportedly, the spirit of this little girl likes to make contact with long-haired women. The staircase remains in the building, as of 2010.

Another ghost allegedly dwelling in the Blackwoods Bar and Grill is a woman in a long, white dress. She appears as a transparent figure and then fades. She has been seen on the top floor of the building as well as in the dining room after hours, trailing her fingers across a table top. Other mysterious occurrences include unexplained footsteps and voices, as well as dishes falling randomly from shelves and hangers being shoved from side to side on the coat rack. - www.ehow.com

Spooky sightings in Cassiobury Park, Watford

watfordobserver - Spiritualist Jamie Burnell claims to have found "compelling evidence" of paranormal activity in Cassiobury Park and is now looking to investigate more locations in the Watford area.

Jamie was encouraged to investigate the popular Watford park after viewing a photograph in the Watford Observer earlier this year.

Since then, the 29-year-old has taken similar photographs and is adamant it is not just a coincidence.

The Watford resident said: "I'm 95 per cent certain that Cassiobury Park is very, very haunted. From a rating of one to ten, I would say it is a good eight.

"Paranormal is the only word to describe the photographs. I feel excited if not a bit apprehensive when dealing with this kind of thing but you can't be scared when dealing with the paranormal."

The spiritualist has created a Facebook page called the "Watford Paranormal Group" where those interested can see the pictures taken in Cassiobury Park.

Many of these photographs include orbs, which are balls of light that are caught on camera and which some believe are spirits and paranormal energies.

Jamie said one of the photographs has an unexplainable mist surrounding him just as he was speaking about the old English urban legend of 'Spring-Heeled Jack'. He believes this mist is Jack's spirit and also claims the ghost of Lord Capel can be found in Cassiobury Park.

Following the success of the last investigation, Jamie is now looking to research other Watford areas such as the All Saints Church in Leavesden and the Leavesden Hospital cemetery, where Jamie said he has heard a voice asking "who are you?" through an Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP) recorder.

Lord Capel

The ghost of Lord Capel is said to be a regular visitor of Cassiobury Park. It is told that Capel was a Royalist fighting for Charles I during the Civil War, and eventually surrendered to General Fairfax. According to legend, Capel was beheaded in 1649 and his heart was buried in Cassiobury Park, although the location was lost over time. Many have claimed to have seen his headless spirit at night in the park, especially about March 9, though some have seen him with a head of long hair and a large moustache.

Spring Heeled Jack

Spring-Heeled Jack is a character from old-English folklore with the ability to jump abnormally high. It is said that he had a terrifying appearance - claw like hands, distorted facial features with eyes “as red as fire”. One report claimed he was tall, thin and wore clothing of a gentleman. The alleged sightings of the “devil-like figure” were promenent during the Victorian era, especially in the suburbs of London where his capability to make great leaps came in useful to make a quick getaway.

Team investigates the paranormal at Southern Vermont College

benningtonbanner - Speaking before a packed house of spooked Southern Vermont College students, members of the Vermont Spirits Detective Agency presented their findings Saturday from an overnight investigation of the college grounds the night prior. Reluctant to say definitively whether or not they encountered the paranormal at Everett Mansion, the investigators nonetheless experienced cold sensations, disconnected voices, and strange smells during their stay. The latter of which, SVC students were able to account for on Saturday.

Friday’s investigation was conducted by agency members Matt Borden, Bryan Hallett, and Gloria DeSousa, joined by recent newcomer Hannah Hawley, and the Peacock family of North Hero: Bill, Joanne, Sophie, and Willie. Of approximately 30 investigations the group has done to date, the Peacocks’ abandoned building in North Hero was one of two, Borden says, that was, without a doubt, haunted.

Friday night at Everett Mansion

"As a group, we had a very interesting night," Hallett said. The college’s Everett Mansion, circa 1910, and surrounding grounds have built a reputation over the years worthy of paranormal investigation, with purported sightings of the spirits of a black-hooded monk, Edward Everett himself, and multiple wives. SVC students relayed encounter after personal encounter to the paranormal investigators Saturday, some eerily similar to what the group experienced themselves Friday night. But haunted?

"Unfortunately we can’t say," said Hallett. "There was stuff we question, but nothing we’re willing to say," definitively. The group spent an hour wandering the campus grounds, four and a half hours at Everett Mansion, and had not yet had time to review all of their digital audio and video recordings.

Static infrared video shot overnight played during Saturday’s presentation, facing the audience and giving them a taste of the more tedious side of the profession. "A lot of paranormal investigation is fairly boring," said Borden, who began the group several years ago after professing a wish to start an agency while on-air as a contestant on the TV show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" with Meredith Vieira.

Soliciting for personal experiences from students in the audience, Hallett said that the difficulty of paranormal investigations was separating the rumors from the truth. "If you go in with the preconception that [the building] is haunted, then you’re going to see it everywhere," he said. "Matt and I take all of these stories, and keep them in mind, but we don’t expect anything to happen."

Hallett said that they typically ignored floating orbs recorded on video, and used electromagnetic force (EMF) detectors for the most part to discount hauntings. The rears of refrigerators, alarm clocks, and old houses with wiring grounded to water pipes are all potential sources of high EMF fields, Hallett explained, which, with prolonged exposure, can cause paranoia, hallucinations, and strange sensations.

Friday’s investigation saw the team split into two groups, employing digital infrared video and audio recorders, "looking for things we really can’t explain," said Hallett. At Everett Mansion there were unattributable mumbling sounds, phantom sights, and odors -- none of which seemed to be digitally recorded. Paradoxically, "when we do hear something\, it won’t be recorded," said Hallet. "And when we don’t hear anything, it is."

At least one inexplicable phenomenon from the SVC investigation was laid to rest on Saturday, when the group alluded to a smell in a specific area of one room in Everett Mansion. A student asked if it smelled anything like cat urine, which, in hindsight, it did. That would be the cat, the student said, that steals into the building at night.

"That might explain some of the noises," said Bill Peacock, the designated sceptic of the group.

The most disquieting experience of the night went to Hallett, who felt a deathly chill on his back in room 203 of Everett Mansion -- the same room and experience recounted by the SVC security guard who let the group in earlier that night. "It was the coldest feeling ever on my back," Hallett said. "I felt wired, very uncomfortable, nervous. I had to get up and move around." His skin was cold to the touch, the window exhibited no draft, and it was, Hallett professed, "one of the coolest things to happen to me" during an investigation.

Unable and unwilling to rule one way or the other in regards to SVC’s hauntings, the group spoke of more evocative past experiences. These included electronic voice phenomena (EVP) of a distinctly Scottish accent, recorded from the Peacocks’ abandoned house, before anyone knew of a previous Scottish owner. Borden played the best audio EVP the group has yet to record, a voice command to "get out," and another, unmistakably the sound of a child humming the song "Happy Birthday" -- sounds not to be mistaken with your average earthly house cat.

Spirit Rescue International - Surrey, UK Haunting Investigation - Updates

UPDATE: Friday 11/19/2010

OK folks...the evidence is starting to trickle in. The master bedroom seems to be the main area of activity and possibly contains a portal. Jamie and Barry left a recorder in the master bedroom....I was able to listen to the first part of the recording and found the following sounds and one discernible EVP.

Master bedroom 1 - this was a recording of over 20 minutes condensed down to the parts where sounds and the EVP (3:34) were heard. Note the heavy footsteps / banging throughout the room. I have felt that the attic area above this bedroom is active as well....it seems that some of the sounds are emanating from the attic.

Master bedroom - EVP - this is the EVP isolated from the longer clip. Irene and I believe there are 3 spirits / entities in this house. The identities, perceived through the RV, are believed to be a father (died in 1986) and daughter (died in 1993) as well as another entity that is a male who is most likely causing the problems and disturbing activity. We will go further into this scenario and the history of this location after we examine and present the evidence...Lon

UPDATE: Saturday 11/20/2010

I listened to the remainder of the audio recordings...the following are from the child's bedroom. I am assuming that this was also the bedroom of the daughter who had died. More on her later:

Child's bedroom - there are 3 EVPs and numerous clickings and bangings. There is also a 'pinging' at one point...sounds like somethings hitting a bottle or glass.

Child's bedroom EVPs - there are 3 discernible EVPs edited from the longer clip....best listened to with headphones.

The following was recorded in the sitting room:

Sitting Room - a few interesting noises including (I presume) an EVP

Sitting Room - EVP - hard to make it out

Please don't copy or reproduce these recordings - ℗​ sound recording copyright - SRI

The entity perceived in the RV and suspected of causing the activity is circled

Well, we got him! This photograph was the first taken on the evening of the on-site investigation...one day after the remote view of the location. The RV target was the last day of the daughter's life (in 1993). What I can currently say is that I felt what the daughter felt and witnessed before and after she died. This photo captures the exact same entity that I saw and described to Irene during the RV. The apparition was standing in the doorway of the master bedroom observing Jamie while the photograph was taken...the reflection of the entity was captured from the window. Jamie was the only person in the room.

I gathered enough information about this being during the RV to realize that it is most likely an earthbound spirit that latches on to the living and the dead. Frankly, I was stunned when Irene pointed the photo out to me....I recognized it immediately and told her so. Nonetheless, Irene is happy that she's dealing with an earthbound...Lon

'More ghosts' after New Zealand earthquake

stuff - The "sheer strength and power" of the September 4 earthquake has more than doubled the number of reported supernatural events in Canterbury, a paranormal investigator says.

Christchurch Paranormal Investigators founder Anton Heyrick said his team had received an "interesting influx" of phone calls and emails after the 7.1-magnitude earthquake, with more than double the usual number of inquiries.

"People are calling us, saying that they had always felt like there was something in the house, but since the earthquake it had become more intense," he said.

Most cases related to strange noises, although one man said he had been attacked by a ghost.

Heyrick said the "sheer strength and power" of the earthquake may have been responsible for the increase in paranormal activity.

The number of old buildings damaged in the earthquake may also have been a factor, he said.

It was well known among investigators that when renovations on old buildings took place, "it tends to wake up dormant spirits, and activity tends to come out of nowhere", he said.

"With the earthquake, it literally smashed walls apart, and knocked down floors and ceilings, so you can imagine the effect that would have had."

The team, which did not charge for its services, had conducted two full investigations, and was planning to do several more.

New Zealand Skeptics chairman Gold said the reports may have been due to "people's minds playing tricks on them in the post-quake environment".

"You may not feel an aftershock, but it will still make things rattle. People's minds fill in the blanks, and they tend to fill in the blanks with fairytales, unfortunately."

A response to ‘Ghost hunting, pseudoscience and skepticism’

northern-iowan - In the recent critique of ghost hunting, Michael Dippold argued that paranormal investigation is merely pseudoscience. He wrote that "there's not a single shred of evidence to suggest that ghosts exist..." Despite being written in such elegant prose, this article is wholly lacking in any real substance.

His claim that there is no evidence could not be further from the truth; there is an absolute abundance of evidence on the paranormal that has been gathered by investigators who fully adhere to the scientific method. The obvious problem is of course that the real, authentic evidence is often drowned out by the many so-called "ghost hunters" who do not practice scientific methods and tarnish the professional image that many paranormal investigation teams fully deserve. A distinction must be made between these two very different types of groups.

Furthermore, as a student who has done extensive reading on the differences between science and pseudoscience, I can say with absolute certainty that there is nothing that precludes the use of the scientific method in studying the paranormal. By definition, pseudoscience is said to be "easy to recognize because it violates the basic criteria of science ... systematic empiricism, public verification, and solvability." Is there a systematic way to observe supposed paranormal locations? Yes. Over time have there been theories developed in regards to the paranormal that can be tested, replicated and verified by others? Yes.

In fact, there are many academics in psychology, physics and numerous other fields who have proposed such theories, some even dealing with the cold spots Mr. Dippold mentioned. Is it possible to prove the conclusions made regarding paranormal energies? No, but in fact one can never say anything is "proven" in science. What can be said, however, is that there is a growing accumulation of data to support them.

No one would presume that the investigation of paranormal energies is a simple task; it isn't. There is much yet to be discovered. Admittedly, the current level of technology in the field does seem rather crude for its purpose and leaves much to be desired. This does not mean humans should simply give up on the investigation. What it means is that individuals with an interest in the paranormal should continue to refine their methods, continue to gather data and ultimately help achieve a greater understanding of what these energies are.

Although I understand the ham sandwich and fairies analogy was intended to be humorous, in order for it to have been so it would have had to be in some way relevant to this conversation; it isn't. To assume that paranormal energies should be able to communicate within the exact same parameters as humans is to commit an attribution error at the most fundamental level.

Electronic Voice Phenomena can be very clear; characterizing it as a "low" threshold is entirely dependent on the standards that are placed upon it. If a so-called ghost hunter labels an inaudible murmur as evidence of a paranormal energy, then most people would agree that is a very low standard, but when credible researchers record very clear audio of words being spoken when it is known for a fact that no human could have possibly produced it, that is fairly solid evidence.

In closing, there is actually very strong, credible evidence that has been gathered using the scientific method; it is there, but it will continue to remain "hidden" to those who are ardently opposed to accepting it.

Lady Gaga's paranormal teamster

heraldsun - Lady Gaga believes she is being haunted by an "annoying" ghost named Ryan.

The ‘Bad Romance’ hitmaker thinks she is being followed everywhere she tours across the world by the spectre, who has “terrified” her with his constant presence.

A member of her touring crew told the Daily Star newspaper: “She’s been telling us all for months that she has a male spirit called Ryan who travels the world with her.

“She’s pretty terrified by this spirit, but more than anything he’s annoying her as he won’t leave her alone.

“He’s hasn’t been doing anything too violent or scary but she’s freaked out by his presence. She’s a very spiritual person and in tune with the spiritual world but this is a step too far, even for her.”

Although little is known about Ryan the ghost, or why he has chosen to haunt Gaga, she has held a seance while in Ireland for her ‘Monster Ball Tour’ over the weekend, in an attempt to get through and see him off.

The source added: “She contacted a spirit medium and organised a seance so she could communicate with him and tell him to go away.

“She gathered all her friends over the weekend in Belfast, Ireland, and held the seance to find out what he wants. She’s convinced she picked this up as a bad omen.

“Although most of her friends were sceptical they agreed to take part.”

It has previously been revealed that Gaga, 24, has spent thousands of dollars on ghostbusters and splashed out $47,000 on state of the art Electro Magnetic Field meters to detect spectres.

A source previously revealed: “She believes in paranormal activity and won't take any risks when she is on the road. It's important to her to be safe from spirits."

Downtown Lancaster, Ohio Businesses Still Experience Ghostly Activity

lancastereaglegazette - The historic Mill building on South Columbus Street has all the looks of a haunted building, and now local ghost hunters say they have the proof.

Chad Houghs, leader of Earthbound Spirits Paranormal, a Lancaster-based group seeking to find answers to paranormal existence, spent a stormy October night investigating Mickey's Bar and Grill, 431 S. Columbus St., former location of the Tavern at the Mill.

Houghs said the team collected evidence that proves the existence of paranormal activity at Mickey's.

"There are definitely spirits, ghosts, whatever you want to call it," he said. "They are intelligent because they were answering questions we were asking them."

The finding confirms what Mickey's Bar and Grill owner Mickey Eaton said he already knew.

"It's definitely haunted, that's my take," he said. "Otherwise I'd be all right closing at night alone; it kind of freaks me out."

The team collected audio and visual evidence. During the video, the team members can be seen on infrared video sitting in the dark attempting to talk to the spirits.

On multiple occasions, a twist to turn on flash light turned on for a few seconds before being turned off -- all happening with no human being within a few feet.

Houghs collects two forms of audio evidence. One uses a normal audio recorder, and another uses a high frequency antenna to pick up signals that are then translated into words.

During various audio clips, team members can be heard clearly asking various questions and there are several responses heard softer than a whisper.

He said many responses went unnoticed by the team during the hunt because of the high frequency; words were heard after playing back audio recordings.

Two of the clearest sounds were that of a response that said, "Please be friends," and a slight cat meow.

"We caught some good evidence on this one. It just seemed like everything was happening perfectly," Houghs said.

At another point, the co-owner's name, "Mike," appears to be heard.

Despite the successful hunt, Houghs realizes skeptics will doubt the findings.

"(They should) get their own electronic recorder and go do it themselves. Then you'll answer your own questions," he said.

Mike Eaton, Mickey's father and co-owner, challenges skeptics to test their beliefs and strongly agrees the building is haunted.

"If there is such a thing as spirits, they're here -- believe me, they're here," he said.

NOTE: OK...when I post paranormal investigations involving groups other than those I am working with, it doesn't necessarily imply that I agree with all or part of the methodology used. I guess I'm 'old school' but the tried and true methods seem to work best especially when evidence needs to be gathered in order to clear or exorcise a subject and/or location. Frankly, many of the gadgets used in modern ghost hunting are simply parlor tricks IMO, ex. K2 meters, EMF meters, flashlight manipulation, 'Frank's Box', etc. Television ghost hunting is entertainment for the most part unless there is a REAL effort to fix a situation. I have always contended that legitimate psychic work as well as the use of other subspace detection is a priority when conducting a serious haunting inquiry. I know many of my readers are not going to be thrilled with my statements. Nonetheless, I will still present paranormal news and events as objective has I feel possible and leave the conclusions up to the readers...Lon

Several Lancaster, Ohio Businesses Coping With Eerie Events

lancastereaglegazette.com - Something mysterious, and perhaps paranormal, is going on in Lancaster.

A few local business owners have enlisted a local paranormal group to get some answers to some hair-raising events.

Tammi Jo's Café and Catering co-owner Tammi Neighbor has had several eerie events in her restaurant, 111 N. Columbus St., since opening less than a year ago.

"There's too many things going on for it to be a coincidence," she said. "One time the restaurant was full, and we heard a whistle come from the center of the building. Everyone turned and looked, but there was no one there."

Neighbor's list of spooky events include a vase moving from one location to another day to day, water faucets turning on by themselves and a crate of rags spontaneously combusting.

Neighbor researched the building's history and learned it formerly belonged to an occult group before they were driven out of town.

She contacted The Ohio Paranormal Seekers, which will make several sound and video recordings to determine if spirits roam the café.

The group will investigate four Lancaster businesses, including two places on either side of Tammi Jo's Café. They will analyze Tammi Jo's Café, Paperback Exchange and Westerman's Tuxedo Junction on Saturday. He will investigate the Tavern at the Mill Sept. 10.

"I was sitting there talking to Vicki (Westerman, co-owner) and heard someone talking upstairs. I apologized for keeping the owner from her other customer, but she said she was the only one there," he said. "I thought she was messing with me, but I went upstairs and there was no one there."

Westerman said she didn't hear the voice, but she also doesn't doubt the possibility of the building, 113 N. Columbus St., being occupied by some presence.

"It would be interesting if they did find something," she said. "But I wouldn't move. I've never felt unsafe here."

Tavern at the Mill owner Ron Hawk said the building, 431 S. Columbus St., has been known as a haunted building for many years. His employees discovered an old newspaper article detailing the death of a 19-year-old man named Luke who was killed in the elevator shaft in 1919 in the Tavern.

"I'm not the type of person to believe in ghosts or spirits, but a lot of my employees do," he said. "Nothing they find, or don't find, will surprise me."

He said employees have mentioned hearing pool being played while no one was by the table and the juke box turning on for no apparent reason.

"A lot of my employees are afraid to go down in the basement by themselves," Hawk said.

He has no plans of moving his business from the 115-year-old building, regardless of the findings by the paranormal investigators.

"I have a lot of money invested there," he said. "I'm not going to let any supposed ghosts scare me out of there."

Paperback Exchange owner Leanne McClellan said on two separate occasions she left a piece of mail on her desk before closing and each time the items were gone the next morning.

"The first time it happened I thought I was losing my mind, but the second time made me think more," McClellan said.

"I'm the only one that works here. Unless we have a ghost, I have no clue where it went."

She said it will be business as usual even if ghosts or spirits are found to be staying in the used bookstore at 109 N. Columbus St.

"I don't anticipate they'll find anything, but it's all in fun," she said. "After all, everyone loves a good ghost story."

Re: ghosts in Westerman's tux shop........

"The shop which is now Westerman's used to be McClurg's. McClurg's sold and serviced musical instruments and sold supplies for them. Before that I believe it was a music store by a different name. I was young when I met the former owner of that place who used to be mean to everyone. After I and my younger brother interacted with him in different ways he became a nice man again. He passed away some time after and so it became Mr. McClurg's store. During the time Mr. McClurg had it, the employees from the previous store still worked there. We'd often hear this one employee yell about someone standing behind him that disappeared. My younger brother and I had gotten to know this employee from that former store and we'd gotten to know that former owner. The owner had been mean to this employee then turned to become very nice to him which unnerved him. He got into a habit of looking over the employee's shoulder to see him working on instruments. Their previous interaction was that of the employee not seeing the owner watching over him and then flying into a rage at the poor quality of work he was doing. So, then, when he turned over a new leaf the employee was still gun shy so to speak and would jump at realizing the guy was behind him. The owner passed away but according to this employee he didn't leave. It wasn't just that either. The owner was still looking over the employee's shoulder from time to time! The employee would yell before the ghost of the owner disappeared before our eyes! The ghost of the owner was looking at us and smiling like he'd done this as a practical joke on the former employee. The employee got so nervous over time that the last time it happened he said enough was enough and that he was looking for a new job. He gathered his things and walked out the door saying good riddance to the place. The owner went after him asking what he was doing. They argued but the owner couldn't talk him into staying. The man said he just couldn't take it anymore. The owner looked creeped out to be standing there in the place knowing he was the only worker there at the time. He did everything he could to get us to stay a bit longer, lol. Mom was doing errands that day and couldn't stay. Once in the car she said she didn't know what had gotten into him. My little brother told her that he knew what had gotten into him and filled her in. She tried to blow it off but then asked the owner about it when she returned to pick up her order. He told her it was all true and that he'd seen the former owner many many times in there still working on instruments. He often found the tools, especially the soldering iron, plugged in and hot. Mom trembled all over and told him she'd pray for him and have her friends pray for him. He asked her not to tell anyone as it would probably cause business to go bad. She understood and said she'd only talk to close friends and that they'd keep it quiet. My sisters who knew about this told all their friends and soon teenagers were filling the store but none were shopping or buying. The owner told each one if they weren't shopping they'd have to leave. He soon realized why they were there and chided mom for talking too much. He said that now no one would come to buy anything from him and he'd be ruined. It actually worked out well for him since people were very interested in the man's ghost. While they were there they would buy things too and business was great. In time it died down and the business was back to normal once again. So, that's the story about the ghost in Westerman's."

Update: Llanelli, Wales Haunting - EVPs / Activity

The activity in the house has increased....both mother and daughter were forced to sleep in the dining room on Friday night because of footsteps and loud bangs. They couldn't pinpoint where about in the house it was coming from but they were loud enough for her sister who lives upstairs to phone down asking them what in hell were they doing. This happened just after 1 am in the morning (10/23).

The sister upstairs said last night there was an awful smell in her place, so disgusting she couldn't describe it. She also heard footsteps coming up the stairs from downstairs...the stairs that are blocked off.

The client called Irene Saturday evening at 11:20 PM Wales local time because of the increased activity. The client also setup the tape recorder in the upstairs bedroom (directly above the bedroom Irene recorded) and left it for several hours. She played the recording over the telephone for Irene who described it as one of the worst haunting recordings she has ever heard. The loud groaning, moans, audible words, banging, footsteps as well as a disturbing buzzing she described as a 'large swarm of blue bottle flies.' Also, there was a heavy stench of sulfur in the bedroom.

NOTE: Irene and I would like as much feedback as possible on these EVP recordings - Upstairs bedroom 1 ℗​ sound recording copyright - SRI and Upstairs bedroom 2 ℗​ sound recording copyright - SRI - many discernible voices (terrible screams in #2) - recorded by client (background noise DB has been lowered a bit when I processed). We believe there are a bevy of spirits involved including at least one very malevolent entity

UPDATE: Upstairs bedroom 3 ℗​ sound recording copyright - SRI - we've known that one of the entities reacts to the dogs barking...yelling after the 2nd set of barks. The 'tweeting' sound is Irene's pet bird in the background while she was transferring the audio to her recorder (speaker to speaker...no port on client's recorder).

The EVP / noise recording links are available at Wales, UK House Haunting - Astral Preceptions forum

We will start researching the history of the house and area this week. As well, I will be conducting a remote view (from the USA) on Tuesday which will be monitored by Irene. A full overnight investigation will be assembled on Wednesday by Irene and associates. Use the Astral Perceptions forum for future updates...Lon
