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.

Bare trees engulfed the fence that surrounds the cemetery. Leaves gathered on the ground, near the base of the now hidden fence. Somewhere within the bowls of this intense underbrush lies a barbed wire fence that surrounds the graves like a protective shield. Numerous lights shoot from the tombstones as our van headlights reflect dancing lights within the shadows of the graves. It was going to be a good night for an investigation. We pulled through the weather beaten gate that now sits on end, from the weight of broken hinges. 5:00 P.M. 27 October 2000: Deciding to sit in the van for awhile, we scanned the area as a hint of nightfall began to come upon us. A light breeze tilted the waist high grass, as it swayed in time, back and forth. Shadows appear and disappear as the shadows of tree limbs move in rhythm to the breeze. A check of the current weather, before we left home, was prime investigation conditions. Solar x-ray's were active with an M-Class Flare and the Geomagnetic Field showed the earth engulfed in a Geomagnetic Storm. Temperatures were in the 60's with no rain, mist or fog present. The moon could barely be seen, for the shadow of the full moon would enclose the lunar rays into a new moon. We stood at the end of the van, conducting another check and the cleaning of equipment. We had an Olympus D360L Digital Camera; Sony TRV 37 Night Shot 8 MM Camcorder with an attached 100 foot inferred light, Nikon 35 MM Camera, Kodak Digital Camera, Tape recorder with an exterior microphone for E.V.P.'s, E.M.F. Meter and a compass. Standing at the end of the van, I panned the cemetery from left to right. All I could think about was the history that held inside these rusty gates. I pictured the church that use to sit across the street and how ravaged the fire was as it destroyed this once small local church. Looking at the tress that has swallowed up the fence that surrounds these monuments. I could see a hint of the creek that runs along the backside of the cemetery, imagining the historical facts that Indians camped along the banks of this creek. But, something more was taking place within the barbed wires. Remnants of parties were noted, as they appeared to have had parties on the bottom of a small crest. One thing was for sure; "This Cemetery" was a prime location bundled with historical events that would lead this place to possibly be haunted. A lone tombstone stood near a tree to my left. This would be an excellent spot to set up an E.V.P. I placed the E.V.P. and we began to walk around to get a layout of the cemetery. No unusual feelings were present. It just felt like a cemetery out in the country, peaceful and serene, but this would all change at nightfall. Nightfall was setting in and things began to change, as the shadows of night covered the daylight with a blanket of darkness. An overpowering odor of burning rubber or plastic emitted from one spot near us. We moved around and finally decided that it was coming from one small, 6 foot in diameter, area. It was a very intense and foul odor of burning plastic or rubber. We took photos of that area and revealed several Orbs within that 6-foot diameter. As sudden as the odor came upon us, it left in the same manner. We continued to complete our layout check, when my wife, Linda, came over to me and reported a strange feeling was detected by her in the South East corner. I grabbed the E.V.P. and positioned it near the empty whiskey bottles and we started walking to that corner to check it out. This is where things changed dramatically. Almost immediately, we all got the feeling that we were being watched and followed. A look over my shoulder showed me that no earthly person was behind us. But, this feeling was not that of one unseen pair of eyes watching us, but maybe that of hundreds. It was almost like standing in center field of a stadium and every pair of eyes in that stadium had their eyes affixed on you. Your eyes were drawn to the partially naked trees, as they stood almost bare from fallen leaves. The feeling came very strong from within the branches of these trees. We stopped and looked at the trees surrounding the cemetery and yes, no doubt about it, the feeling was coming from the trees. We were standing right smack in the middle of that stadium. We arrived at that corner, when a strong overpowering smell of a woman's perfume engulfed the area. It was a sweet lingering odor and it appeared to be coming from right where we were standing. Within moments the odor was gone. I began to walk a small parameter around that corner. I had Linda record that corner with the Sony 8 MM. After just a few minutes, I called over to Linda and asked if she was all right. A comfortable reply of "Yes" followed and I continued to note the parameter. It couldn't have been two minutes, when Linda called for me. I could sense a feeling of distress in her voice. Without thinking, I leaped over a tombstone and ran up to her. As I got closer to her, I could see she was standing very rigid and facing south. The Sony 8 MM was slung over her shoulder as she stood there. I made my way to her and asked what was wrong. A crackling voice replied that "I cannot move, I feel like I am being drained of every ounce of energy in my body". She said, "I want to leave, we have to leave now"! I grabbed Linda's arm and literally had to pull her to get her to move, as her body was still stiff and rigid. I pulled at her and almost dragged her out the nearest gate. We walked down the center of the county road to go to the other gate and get in the car. Linda felt as though we were being followed. With one hand, I turned the camera behind us and snapped a photo; several orbs were behind us. I helped her in the van, recovered the E.V.P. and we decided that we needed to go somewhere and talk about this. We all agreed and left the area.

Let me first say that we have extensive photographs that we have ruled out any man made or natural explanations. These photos contain orbs and ecto fog. Our E.V.P. picked up two messages, one in each location that the E.V.P. sat. (1) "Come to me to see the beautiful bright light" was captured in the second E.V.P. location. (2) "Why do you come to me" was captured at the first E.V.P. location. Although our first trip out there consisted more of our feeling of a presence with us, several odors that could not be explained, and the physical effects that took hold of our bodies. E.M.F. meter readings, E.V.P. recordings and photographs, all captured paranormal events and support what we experienced out there. After careful review of our evidence, we have determined that where Linda was standing, could be that of a portal and would need more investigating. When I set Linda up in that corner to videotape with the Sony 8 MM and I continued to note the parameter. When we got home, Linda had not filmed one frame of film. Linda described what her body was going through as she stood in this possible portal. She stated that she felt as if drained. The longer she stood there, the more energy that was being taken from her. She also described that her body felt as though it weighed tons and she was not able to move. She fought desperately to move and managed to get one step. Right after the step, she heard a step behind her. She thought it could have been her own step she was hearing, but is was distant and echoed. This feeling that Linda Felt and the physical effects has been well documented throughout paranormal Investigators. This event, along with photographs, and our equipment readings, leads us to believe that we have indeed identified a Portal.

DAY 2
6:00 P.M. 28 October 2000: I backed up the van inside the gate closest to the Southeast Corner of the cemetery. Tonight's investigation would center on the possible portal. Standing at the end of the van, I panned the area once again. Both East and West ends of the cemetery have been mowed and partially taken care of, but the middle of the cemetery was still infested with growth. Grass was as tall as waist high in much of the center, with about a 50 foot mowed section that runs along the entire south end of the cemetery. With the maintenance condition of the cemetery, this was just one more thing to add to the energies of the unknown. We conducted a check and cleaned our equipment, making sure everything was according to our Standards and Protocols. We stood at the back of the van and discussed our plan of action for the evening. Yes tonight, we would stay in the Southeast corner and devote our resources to the possible portal. Making our way down the path to the corner, each of us walked without conversation. Last nights occurrences must be going through each and every one of our minds, wondering what lies ahead for us this night. Nightfall was closing in and we had to get the equipment set up. I found the perfect location to set the Sony 8 MM Night shot Video camera. Raising the tripod to get the perfect height and angle, I set the function to record. We decided to set an E.V.P. near the extreme south end of the portal, in hopes of reenacting last nights voice phenomena. I noted the current conditions as no rain, mist or fog. Temperatures in the 60's, Solar X-rays: M-Class Flare. Geomagnetic Field: Storm, with a New Moon. Conditions, once again was prime. Linda was reluctant to go near the portal and had attempted to walk near it several times. Each time, as she drew closer to the area, a feeling of energy draining took place. We were definitely dealing with an energy source here and we had to annotate everything that was taking place. We took E.M.F. reading and photographed the area. Orbs were present as the night began to engulf the daylight. We were ready and now all we had to do was wait. With each passing minute, the night drew closer. The last remaining rays of light were now a recent memory. We waited in anticipation, but yet, nothing was sensed or present. What seemed like hours had passed, even though it had only been about 30 minutes. Linda felt as though unseen eyes were watching her. This was not a feeling like the night before, when we felt as though in a stadium. The faint sound of footsteps was heard by all, and we determined the sound to be coming from the far southeast end, where the tree line begins. This distance was only about 50 feet away. We watched through the darkness, in hopes of seeing the cause of the footsteps. Nothing was seen; just the continued sound of every step being made. The sounds stayed in that general area and gave the impression of someone pacing back and forth. This event occurred on and off throughout the evening. We took photographs of the area and in one particular photo that I took with the Olympus D360L digital camera, I captured and seen in the viewfinder a Supercharged Orb when the flash went off. "Excellent proof that we were not alone". In the near distance a group of coyotes began to howl a song of fear, as it echoed throughout the nearby trees. One would think, this was set up to add to a feeling of a classic haunting. "Perfect Timing", I must say. No odors and no E.V.P.'s were captured or detected on this night. But a continued feeling of being watched, unidentified footsteps, Numerous unexplained noises, a quick glimpse out of the corner of my eye, to what appeared to be a shadow dart from one tombstone to the other. For the next few hours, we continued to film, photograph and note what was being seen and felt. At about 9:00 P.M. we decided to pack it in and go home to evaluate tonight's evidence.

Although tonight's trip did not produce the overwhelming presence that was detected the night before, we did pick up on the feeling of someone there with us. Our video, photographs and equipment readings supported the idea that we were not alone. One particular photograph shows an ecto fog, as it appears to come from the portal. Yet, another photograph captured an orb as it moved in front of the Sony Video camera. Let it also be noted that the Sony Video camera also recorded, what we believe to be the same orb captured on that one photograph, as it passed in front of the lens. With the evidence that we have collected on both days, still support our portal theory. Further investigations would need to be conducted. We will keep this case in open unfounded status and continue to monitor paranormal events. We will add highlights to each trip at the bottom of this page. So please feel free to see new evidence, as it becomes available.

Not Alone

November 2000 - We had been to this cemetery on a regular basis now, as we attempted to record paranormal activity. We are in firm belief that there is an active portal in this cemetery and our data that had been collected pointed in that direction. Mysterious lights, ecto fog & mist, Odors, phantom footsteps, voices, Meter readings, etc. were all recorded here. Driving in through the gate, we had a plan of action for tonight. We were going to have the Sony Night shot monitor an area for us, as we would stand in the distance watching. With nightfall closing in fast, I set up the Sony Night shot and inferred was on and everything was set. We were alone in the cemetery, for this cemetery sits within the bowls of country woods and we have not run into anyone with any of our visits out there. What we want to share with you, is not so much what we experienced that night, but rather, what the Sony Night shot recorded. On play back, the screen is locked in a direction that picks up a lone tombstone and the screen is a glow in a flat green of the inferred. Within a few minutes, we watched as a single orb moved from the left of the screen and traveled to the right and out of sight. This orb moved as if it was in control of its every movement. It reminded us of a hovering action, but was moving at the same time. Very controlled and very exciting. About 15 minutes pass and we hear footsteps approach the camera. Remember, that nobody is around and we are up on the small hill while this is going on. These footsteps carried weight with them and they broke limbs that lay on the ground near the Night shot. These footsteps appear to move just behind the Night shot and always stay near. This goes on for about 45 minutes to an hour. Judging by the sounds, we would say this was something that was at least a 100 pounds or plus. The footsteps got so loud at times, you were expecting to see this unseen person to step around and in front of the camera. But this never happened. You can hear our voices on the tape as we are walking up to the camera to pack it up. The footsteps continue all the way up to the point when I reach the camera, then on the video you see a quick white flash of something as it passes in front of the camera and leaves. We must make sure everyone understands this. There were no animals, people or anything near the Night shot as it was filming. It set alone as it recorded that area. These footsteps stayed up to the point when we were at the camera, only then did they leave. There was also this mysterious white flash that passed in front of the camera lens right when the footsteps quit. Remember that this is November and there are no bugs out and the area was well monitored by us. We believe that this was indeed the sounds of a spirit that was checking out our camera and for some unknown reason, stayed at that location for nearly an hour. With this added evidence, we are in strong belief, that this cemetery is indeed home to a portal and many spirits that seem to dwell within this cemetery.
