Phenomena witnessed by investigators:

A. While investigating on the main floor of the house, The lead investigator had their flashlight flicker. An EMF reading was taken around the investigator. An EMF field with a spike of 2.0 was discovered. If the investigator moved the field would disappear and reappear where they had moved to. This was backed up by another EMF meter.

B. At 23:10 while investigating the master bedroom, the battery in the Sony Handycam (Hi8) went from 40 minutes remaining to dead.  Around this time we have the KII meter showing some activity on this cam.  We also have EVPs from this time of the investigation that we caught on 2 Handycams and backed up by a digital Voice Recorder.

C. We also had a static voice recorder with only seven hours of audio stored on it from a previous session, shut down. When we went to retrieve it the message full was flashing on the display. This recorder will hold 17 hours of audio on it's highest quality setting. When we reviewed the audio from this recorder, you can hear the investigator place the recorder and walk away. After that we captured nothing more.

Evidence:

Audio EVP's captured
