In addition to photos and Evp's, other evidence collected was recorded in the report as influx in Geo Magnetic fields which indicted energy fluctuations that supports spirit energy. These readings are in direct correlation to data collected by this agency and those others that utilize EMF meters and the evidence collected falls within the area identified as spirit energy present. Thermal probes and scanners indicated several drops in temperatures that were such a drastic change that no normal or realistic explanation other then the paranormal could be given. They fell within the parameters and data supporting such changes and would indeed lean toward that of the paranormal. These readings were present and noted in this investigation.

This home stands tall and proud as the day it was built. Standing the test of time, the home stands with elegance of a true Victorian home. Still glowing with pride, it is filled with all original woodwork, giving one a sense of being in the presence of elegance. But the woodwork is not the only thing within this house that has stood the test of time. For inside dwells several spirits that still cling to this homes elegance. These spirits are believed to be those of the homes previous owners. The spirits appear to be positive energies that just want to enjoy the home as they had before. Only now, they are sharing with the living and at times this breech into our world tends to bring a few chills to ones skin as the spirits make themselves known.
This is true as Brian, Linda and Derek begin the investigation with some photos of the exterior. As Brian stood across the street, witness, was a circular sphere like object, the size being that of a basketball, come out from one of the upstairs rooms. Brian tracked the sphere as it made it's way toward the upper railing of the porch, at which time, Brian was able to capture the below photo.

Brian took this photo with the Olympus D360L Digital Camera as it was witnessed with the naked eye as it appeared to come out from the upstairs level window and traveled to the spot, in which it is, as we were able to capture this photo. There was a brilliant light that illuminated from this object as it moved with intelligence. Copyright Missouri Ghost Hunters Society. All Rights Reserved. All M.G.H.S.

After getting photos of the exterior, we met with the clients and were given a tour of the home and given some of the homes history. The Attic room was one of the rooms that contained most of the reported activity. One such report is several of the family members and those guest that have stayed in the room while visiting, have heard the soft sound of a woman crying. This woman's crying can also be heard at times downstairs as well. We thought this would be an ideal place to set up an EVP and the Sony NightShot. After getting the equipment set up, we decided to turn off the lights in that room for the sake of the Nightspot video camera. There was one light that illuminated the room and the only way to turn off the light was to unscrew the light from it's socket. So Derek unscrewed the light bulb and we headed to the second floor to get some initial readings with the Trifield Natural meter. After being down stairs for about 10 minutes, a light shown down the stairs from the attic room. Derek and Linda went upstairs to find that the light bulb had been screwed back in the socket. We must state that nobody, besides us, was on the second and upper floors. On playback, the Sony Nightshot picked up a very faint whisper 10 seconds before the room lights up from the light bulb being screwed back in the socket. This incident was one of a few that took place that night.

The Trifield Natural Meter was positioned in the room and on several occasions the needle spiked in an unsystematic movement. During which time, those near the meter could feel a cold spot pass by.

The Next photos require some explanation. In the living room is an old Vector Phonograph and Caryl decided to play a record in the era of the spirits that dwell in this home. Not long after the record began to play through the crackle and pop of the old Vector graph, the Trifield Natural Meter began to spike back and forth, chills and goose bumps raised on those around as a cold spot passed by. Derek and Brian took two particular photos that picked up some very good spirit energies. This happen three times with the Triefield Natural Meter and two of the three times produced excellent photos.

This online brief of this investigation does not give all the accounts and/or evidence of this investigation. We post these briefs as a means of learning, support for those that are experiencing activity of the paranormal. It is a means of support to ensure that you are not alone in situations like this. We want to thank the owners of this wonderful home for their hospitality.
We believe that this home houses those spirits that have dwelled within the home in the late 1800's. We do not believe that these spirits are evil or negative, but rather positive and friendly. Although their acts do appear to be bothersome and child like at times, it is believed this is due to their attempt to communicate with the owners. We hope to be ale to break down the EVP that was captured and post it here on the Internet, we also hope to bring a video of the light coming on by itself in the upper attic room that was indicated at the beginning of this brief.
Case Open for disposition
