S.P.I.R.I.T. and the Woman in White (Villages of Vilano)

We were called to the Villages of Vilano with the report of a woman in a white civil war era dress that is seen walking between and through three houses.

We were invited to investigate to of the three houses as the other owners were out of town and were not available.

The first house we went into is one of the three on the end.  She is seen coming through their side door, into the house and walks through furniture and walls.  She doesn't say anything but she will turn and appear to be looking right at one of the people who lives in the house. She has also been seen walking down one of their hallways before disappearing.

During this investigation, none of our equipment really too much response to anything in the house, but again the dousing rods did lend some information.  There were no results when they were asked about the woman in white, however, when they were asked about a relative who had passed.  But through the course of investigation we were able to identify the name of the relative who had passed and were able to verify some information around their birth date.  We do this to validate our findings for the client. 

At one point we did ask them to point toward good friend and they did accurately point toward that person who had joined us for the investigation.

We also had some dimming of lights somewhat frequently, which we determined were not related to air conditioning as it nor the heat were running.  Also some knocks on walls like someone was really trying to get our attention.

Once things started getting quite, we packed up our equipment and moved on to the other house which was at the other end of the three houses.  It's the middle house we did not get to investigate.

As we came into this new house, our investigator noticed some Christmas decorations were laying on the floor.  They picked them up and the home owner told us that the woman in white had just come through there and knocked it off.  She stated that it happens a lot.  We checked with the other house owners and they said they had not had any reports of noises or things moving, just seeing her walking around.

As we talked more with the new home owner, she informed us she had a LOT of antiques in her house.  Mostly from all of her relatives.  She was the keeper of their memories.  She had a whole closet full of photographs, she had a tea setup from the 1600's, furniture from the 1700's and much more.  She said the woman has been seen multiple times in her house including coming into the bedroom and looking in her cabinet like it was a chest she was bending over and looking into.  Often the lights flicker on and off and noises are heard and things are moved. 

She explained that she had been able to sense spirits since she was young and she was not worried and had no fear from this lady being in her house.  She even stated her dog, was not too concerned by her appearance there either.

We broke out the equipment and did our walk throughs, but nothing really hit on anything as far as our equipment was concerned.  But you could feel all the energy that was in that house just coming from all the historical items.  Is that why the lady in white was stronger in this house as opposed to the first house we investigated?

We did something a little different during this investigation and tried to ask questions with a crystal.  However, we couldn't get it to stop moving at all so we could ask it questions, we did do some EVP recordings which did say a few things, however, mostly we got Spirit Box responses to questions.  During this session we ALSO received a response that one of the people coming through was the loved one that had passed from the first house.  We got confirmation by name.  Was he not able to get his message through when we were at the first house?  Did he travel?

The home owner mentioned she had lost a relative young, so we did try to ask if they were with us.  However, the response was more questioning the relationship of that person to the home owner.  Not responding as the person.  Does that mean the energy there intelligent?  Sure seems that way.

We felt nothing uncomfortable or uneasy at either place.  As a matter of fact, we felt love and welcomed from both families and their home.

We want to go back and maybe setup some trap cameras between the houses, just to see if we can document the lady in white that way...

S.P.I.R.I.T. goes to Riverside Cemetery

WOW what a night this was!

Riverside Cemetery was very unique and an exciting night.  We went at the invite of another Team!  War Party Paranormal!!

As we were waiting for everyone to get there and gather the environment started right off delivering a large black mass that was seen by three SEPARATE groups of people that were no where near each other when it showed it's self.  As we got together to tell each other what we saw we realized that all three sets of people had seen it at one time!!  Started out really well!!

Next we gathered to sit and do some EVP sessions and they were still lively even there!  We were getting some responses to our questions and noises when we asked for some of the gates to be moved.    We also had Lizzie the doll along for this investigation, did she attract attention?  Not sure but the air was alive! (snicker)

We then split up and went our separate ways.  Some of us went to see Perry Como!  Yes his grave and his wife's are in this cemetery.  We performed some EVP sessions there and did get responses to some of our questions, but he did appear to be a little quiet and apparently normally he was not.  But we did see some strange lights floating near his grave that were the size of small plates.  Apparently this is a frequent sighting as well at this cemetery.

As we walked around there was a strange peacefulness in one place, but then you walk to another it seemed like a totally different place.  You could feel in the air that some things were not resting in peace there.  We went to one area where during a previous investigation by War Party a large black mass had been spotted.  When a couple of our investigators walked into this area between two graves, they could feel like...an unsetteled feeling also of being watched.  There was a bench in front of one of the mausoleums and as an investigator went there to sit, they were over whelmed with a since of dizziness.  Pictures were taken and EVPs were done, but no response.  When the feelings continue and grew in intensity, one of the investigators stated out loud, "You don't have permission to touch me or harm me in any way, but we would like to TALK to you".  Still no response, however, all of a sudden the feelings went completely away.  We had others on the Team that are sensitive to these types of events and we asked them to check out the area, not knowing what had previously occurred and they said the area felt fine.  Was there something there originally?  Who knows, but the investigators surely thought there was!

This cemetery is also known for a whistler.  Where you whistle and you receive a response.  We didn't get to hear that during our investigation, but we sure do want to go back to try again. 

This is a place we will want to visit again and we thank War Party Paranormal for letting us in on their investigation!  Check out our pictures on FaceBook!

S.P.I.R.I.T. and Declaration and Company - St. Augustine Florida

Hello!

One of our latest adventures found us going to St. Augustine Florida!  We investigated an old building which is now the home of Declaration & Company!  If you love to shop this is a great place to find that unique gift........or spirit.

Our Team prefers not to find out too much about a place until we have at least begun our investigation, this way if something comes up during the process, it allows us to validate our findings.

 We came into the shop in the evening and began our initial walk through.  One of the first things we did is our base line readings, as well as having the empath on our Team walk the building to get a "feel" for the place.  One of the things they picked up on is the back room just felt full of energy.  When they opened the door it seemed to rush out.  You could feel it like wind on your arms.  There was no open window or air conditioner vent and when we as a Team with the owner went back there during the investigation, there was no such feeling since the doors had been left open.  While we were later investigating the space we did here a disembodied voice, but at this time have not identified any EVPs from that space, we have more to review.

Next place that was identified is the stairs going up to the second floor.  As you started walking up the stairs and got to the third stair, it had a different feeling.  The way it was described was a feeling that your feet were heavy, like wearing really heavy boots for the third and next few stairs.  We set up a vibration sensor on those stairs and watched it for the first part of the investigation.  As we moved through the investigation, we did share the feelings of the back room downstairs and the stairs coming up to the second floor.  The client then did confirm there was something a little off about the stairs.  When they first moved into the space, there was a piece of plywood covering up the first through the third stairs.  They had to remove it due to code requirements.  Could the heaviness been related to that?  Not sure but seems surprising it was the same steps involved...your thoughts?

As we discussed our thoughts about the place with the owners and his friends that joined us, we told them of a feeling when walking into one of the back rooms of the top floor of being thrown to the right.  We saw nothing wrong with the floor and there was no visible incline / decline.  But the feeling was really extreme.  They then explained that they had had the building reviewed when they bought it and in fact the very back part of the building was added on and it did have a 20% slant to the right.  Not sure if normally a 20% variance would be felt as extreme as this was felt but wow...we were pretty spot on.

We also performed EVP blast during that time and did get a few things, we are still reviewing to isolate them.  We also spent a good deal of time doing dousing rod sessions with the owner and his friends participating.  During these sessions our static electricity devices kept going off randomly as well as other equipment.  We couldn't get them to go off with any consistantcy or in response to any questions we asked.  However, during the dousing rod sessions, we did get some responses and not all were related to the building.  Again, some personal things came through for those participating in the sessions.  This is always exciting.

Have you ever used the Iphone "live photo" mode when you are doing your investigations?  We have caught several things when doing that and find it very interesting in what it catches.  This time we caught a light bar traveling along the floor. If we didn't have the live photo we wouldn't have identified it as traveling.  Really cool!  Check out our facebook site for the postings!

This investigation was a lot about the feelings, both the feel of the building and the participants.  Reactions to the information we were obtaining and the response to our equipment.  We beleive we helped them and they are now more aware of what is in their building and how to address them as they go about their day to day activities.  We hope to go back soon for an update.

Until the SPIRIT Talks again............................
