February 2024 - Vol. 4 Issue 1

 

2024 is a big year for us! Ten years hosting group public events to benefit historic locations. Of course, we could not do this without you, so we cannot thank everyone enough! But, before we celebrate the big 'one-oh', I want to share some great news that many of you have been waiting for - EVIDENCE!

ALL EVIDENCE IS NOW PUBLISHED!

 

Great news! Our entire backlog of data review has been reviewed and evidence from all of our 2023 investigations is available to review! We also found some older events that were not yet published.

 

In this special edition of our newsletter, you can find and review all of the evidence published today!

 

Shanley Hotel - April 25-26, 2021

 

This was a private, small-group investigation of Shanley Hotel in Napanoch, New York. But, we're happy to share our findings. The creepy hotel never disappoints! In this investigation we were in the bordello around 3am when we heard someone walking slowly up the staircase. As usual, we received a number of surprising responses from our spirited friends at the Shanley.

A Spirited Evening at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum - October, 8, 2022

 

It was a rare quiet night at Ventfort Hall, but that does not mean we did not get meaningful responses from the spirits. We had an EVP from a little girl, the sound of billiard balls hitting together, and some fascinating Phasmabox responses. 

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - October 15, 2022

 

We met some new spirits during this event and the Phasmabox did not disappoint as usual. A bit slower than other investigations at the fort, but we did not leave without a number of interesting responses that will help shape our investigations there in the future.

A Spirited Evening at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum - October 29, 2022

 

I was so relieved to see the spirits once again turning off light bulbs again, after what seemed like an eternity that they did not. We had some truly remarkable Phasmabox responses during this investigation and was a great way to finish off our 2022 event calendar.

Shanley Hotel - November 10-11, 2022

 

This was a private and small group paranormal investigation at Shanley Hotel in Napanoch, New York. Our friends at Ventfort Hall joined us and were shocked at the activity in Joe's Room between 3-6am and as always, some very interesting responses and EVPs from this incredible and haunted location.  

A Spirited Evening at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum - April 21, 2023

 

This was one of the most eventful and exciting investigations at Ventfort Hall! There is amazing video of an extra special dining room light trick and some phenomenal Phasmabox responses! The spirits were very talkative and cooperative on this night! What a great way to start our 2023 public event calendar! Plus, we unleashed "Fester" upon the world, with a surprising result.

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - June 6, 2023

 

During this event, our guests were shocked by a shadow figure in the tunnels that was lurking in the space adjacent to us and at one point entered the space and was next to one of our guests. The spirits at the fort have started to know what to expect and have become impatient for their 'treats' or for our equipment to turn on so they can talk to us. This became apparent during this investigation. Plus there is a surprising - and TMI - moment from the infirmary.

 

A Spirited Evening at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum - July 8, 2023

 

I'll be honest and say that the evidence sharable from this event is minimal. It's not because things did not happen, but, it was because the spirits were extremely cranky. Most of the responses from the spirits were very vulgar and very insulting. I have never seen the spirits at Ventfort act this way, hopefully we never will again. In addition to the salty spirits, there was an overwhelming feeling of sadness over the mansion that may be attributed to being near the anniversary of Sarah Morgan's death. The one salty comment I left in was about my friend "Bruce" - someone was a little cranky towards my pal Bruce that night.  

 

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - July 13, 2023

 

Some of my favorite moments of this night was Scott who introduced himself in a very heavy Rhode Island accent, a surprising phantom whistle, a spirit who identified himself as a Civil War veteran, and meeting a number of new spirit friends that we hope to hear from in the future.

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - August 10, 2023

 

We captured three different paranormal entities on camera during this amazing investigation! The spirits were very impatient this evening wanting their treats and a chance to talk to us! Some amazing Phasmabox responses this night, but the visual evidence is superb! This night was also one in which a certain spirit said he took pleasure in the death of a young woman at the fort - not a response we expected. During this event, the spirits were driving us all bananas with how many times they triggered the motion sensor music box in the infirmary.

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - October 20, 2023

 

Another amazing adventure at the fort with several people touched, my crucifix around my neck was tugged and a large amount of spirits who introduced themselves to our guests. This was also the first time that a spirit threw a rock in the powder magazine when we asked it. (Unfortunately, I had battery drain on my recorder and that was not recorded - but the guests will never forget that experience).

A Spirited Evening at Fort Adams - October 26, 2023

 

This was a special group paranormal investigation for the Military Spouses of Newport - we were incredibly honored to provide them a night we hope they will never forget! Again, a rock was thrown - and unbelievably, my recorder experienced battery-drain for the second investigation at the worst moment! But we had a bunch of amazing and surprising responses on the Phasmabox!

A Spirited Evening at Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum - October 28, 2023

 

This one will forever be known as the night a fake skeleton attacked me surprising guests in the library. In Mrs. Morgan's room we were hearing banging behind us and the spirits were acknowledging this. I learned a few things about Bruce this night. Overall, the night was a bit quiet - didn't they know it was almost Halloween?! But, we had some meaningful responses and while the spirites were quiet, I'd like to think we shared a good number of laughs together. I think the problem is we heard a "He's coming" statement fifteen minutes into the investigation. When we hear this (usually later in the evening) the spirits seem to hide. And, I'm certain we captured Pastor Stevens voice!  

We hope you enjoy this evidence from previous events and hope to see you this year for what we hope is our most magical year yet!
