Location
Status:
Unoccupied,
three story federal style stone house built in the 1700’s.
Reported
Activity:
Workers
cutting grass in the yards around this building have reported seeing
a young girl on multiple occasions on the upper floors, looking out
the window and waving at them. The workers know this building to be
unoccupied and secure but when checked, no one was in the house. On
separate occasions, when workers have gone into the home, they have
had very uneasy feelings. They get the feeling that they are not
alone and are being watched. This is the second visit by the PPA to
this location. By having an additional investigation, the clients
hope to gain additional information as to what may be taking place in
this residence.

AUDIO
ANALYSIS: VR1- Digital Voice Recorder: Stationary in first
floor
living room
VR2- Digital Voice Recorder: Stationary in third
floor
end bedroom on
right
This
device recorded what appears to be musical notes. The notes were
physically heard by Stan at the other end of the house on the third
floor and reported
by Stan to sound like piano or harp notes. In the below clip, just
after Stan asks Nicole, in the distance, if she hears something, two
quick notes can
initially be
heard with a pop type sound right at 13 seconds and
then four more notes at 20 seconds. The loud clicking,
immediately
after the first two sounds, are from a thermal camera recalibrating
itself. The second clip is an amplified version with the last four
notes being repeated twice with better clarity. The clip is best heard
through headphones or higher quality computer speakers.
This device later captured what sounds like a short
musical melody or humming while Virginia and Kelly were investigating
on the second floor and not too long after Virginia reported hearing
singing and began to sing along. Virginia can be heard talking in the
background at the time of the recording. The sound starts at 4 seconds
into the clip.
VR3- Digital Voice Recorder: Stationary in second
floor
end bedroom to
the right
This
device recorded an anomaly that sound somewhat mechanical or
electronic after Virginia says, “Hey Margaret”. The sound is a
bit digital sounding but was not the result from any electronic
equipment present. The sound also was picked up on a camcorder
present with Virginia and Kelly but neither investigator had heard
the sound when it occurred. The cause of the anomaly is unknown but
it does not belong on the recorder as a normal sound of the home or
investigation. The sound can be heard at 12 seconds into the clip.

Investigator
Feelings / Personal Experiences:
Mark-
Witnessed a light appear in the rear, left end bedroom, against the
wall with no known origin. No outside traffic or lighting was observed
upon checking outdoors. The affect could not be repeated by
various illumination testing.
Nicole- Nothing to report. Kelly- Nothing to report.
Stan-
While investigating with Nicole on the third floor in the end bedroom
on the left, Stan reported hearing a few single tones of what he
described as piano notes being played. Stan indicated that the sounds
would have been coming from his left. To Stan's left is the hallway,
the staircase and the right end bedroom.
Virginia- Refer to Psychic
Impressions
Psychic
Impressions:
When
Virginia arrived at the home, the home felt as if it was saying hello
to her, as if the home was alive. Virginia felt like spirit was
welcoming PPA members back. During the investigation, Virginia
received the following impressions:
Basement:
When Virginia was in the basement of the home with Kelly, she
kept
picking up a male spirit hanging around the open well. Virginia felt
the name of the male spirit was Joseph. Joseph was very intimidating
and curious. Virginia felt he was a worker who helped run the home.
As the investigation continued, Virginia also picked up another male
spirit named Francis who told Virginia he wrote and illustrated
books. Kelly, the PPA’s Historian, confirmed this information.
Virginia also felt another male spirit named Thomas who, Virginia
felt, was a slave at one point but was also was working around the
home and land.
Third
Floor Bedroom:
Virginia felt more male spirits during this investigation
then the
first time but felt the spirit of the little girl named Margret who
was identified during the first PPA investigation at this property,
was very present in this bedroom.
Barn
Area:
When Virginia and Kelly were in the barn, they both felt very
uncomfortable much like the last investigation. Virginia felt the
spirit of a slave was hiding in the barn and was able to help him
cross over. Virginia observed another slave watching them from
darkest part of the barn but also felt that there were more slaves
moving around the barn at times that have not been seen or discovered
yet. While walking around outside, Virginia picked up a farmer moving
around the property.
Outside
in the back of the house:
While Virginia and Kelly were sitting on the bench in the rear of the
house, Virginia picked up on the spirit of the Mother of little girl
named Margret. Virginia felt that this was where she would sit and
morn for her daughter and Husband. Virginia felt great sorrow and
loss while sitting there. Virginia also pick up that this was the
residue of this spirits emotions. (Residual energy)
Second
Floor Bedroom:
When Virginia and Kelly were in the second floor bedroom on
the
right side of the house, Virginia felt the presence of a female spirit
that was hanging around the bathroom in that bedroom.
Virginia
psychically felt and heard singing, so Virginia began to sing along as
well.
Conclusion:
During
the second investigation at this location on this particular date,
investigators once again had a few personal experiences. Investigators
physically heard music that was captured by an audio
recorder and a light was observed at the end of a hallway that could
not be replicated. No inside or outside light source would have been
anywhere near that area to cause the illumination. Additional audio
anomalies, such as a musical melody and an unexplained sound were
recorded by our equipment in various parts of the building. The audio
recordings were quite similar to prior audio recordings made during
our first investigation at this location.
Metaphysically,
Psychic Medium Virginia Centrillo picked up several spirits that she
believed were present on the property. Virginia felt that a few of
the same spirits she identified from the first investigation were
still present, along with some additional spirits she had not
encountered before. Virginia once again picked up singing in the
right end of the home. This further corroborates the musical notes
and melody that was picked up by our recorders
The
PPA continues to collect information leaning towards paranormal
activity occurring at this location. Once again, Virginia felt that
there is nothing of a danger here and no reason for anyone visiting
or working here to be afraid. Virginia feels that all the spirits are
here because of their common love of the property and that they are
very content with being at this location. Additional visits would
prove to be valuable to further document ongoing activity.
