Phenomenology has been the "go to" paranormal event for many years. Sadly, we have learned that this was to be the last one.
On a personal level, Bob & I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dana, Chris, their family and NEPI for all of their dedication and hard work throughout the years. We have made so many friends and contacts through this event. We have also learned a great deal from some truly amazing people in the field.
As always, a number of readings and group investigations were available to be purchased for an additional fee. This year we chose to investigate the very haunted and historic Haldeman Mansion in Bainbridge, PA.
The History:
The mansion is situated on sacred Native American land. One can only assume the mansions close proximity to the Susquehanna River and active train tracks also have something to do with the energy one can easily feel surrounding the Haldeman.
The oldest part of the property was built in the mid 1700s by the Galbraith family. Further building and improvements were made by the prestigious Haldeman family who inhabited the mansion in its heyday.
Most notable are many stories of a little girl and an older man that often make their presence known among the many other spirits that still roam the home, property and nearby burial grounds.
The entire group participated in an intriguing ITC / Spirit Box session led by Chris Fleming during the first part of our investigation. This session took place in the old smoke house, which is now referred to as the summer kitchen.
As we made our way into the mansion, the groups became smaller and everyone went their separate ways. Bob & I made our way into the basement and began setting up our REM Pod, Vibe Pod & new UV Pod from Pro Measurements.
As we sat down and started an EVP session all of the pods started going off, but the odd thing was that it sounded like someone was creating a tune. This went on for quite a while, and was quickly turning into one of the more profound interactions we have had with the REM and Vibe pods. We were truly astonished because we were testing the UV pod for the first time! There was even a moment where I could feel the UV pod being accessed. I know that sounds crazy, but I felt and envisioned the spirit over the device right before it went off multiple times.
We decided to bring out the SLS Camera toward the end of the session and to our amazement, we also captured stick figures moving about.
Its a good thing we did, because unfortunately we had a technical issue and lost the vast majority of this footage. It was still an excellent experience to pass along; one we will never forget.
What we do have to share with you is a 5-minute clip containing the audio and video from the SLS Camera along with the video only from our Sony Handycam.
We plan on returning for a private investigation in early November 2015.
We are eager to explore the rest of the mansion, as we never even made it out of the basement!
Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection
against the wickedness
and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him,
we humbly pray;
and do Thou, O Prince
of the Heavenly Host
by the Power of God-
cast into hell,
satan and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruins of souls
Amen.
