Private Residence in Central Wisconsin

 

 

Synopsis

The structure is a ranch style home located in a middle class neighborhood. The home was built in the late 1960’s. The builders lived in the home until the mid to late 1990’s.  The male builder passed away on December 25, 1995 at a nursing home. His wife passed on July 3, 1998 in a nursing home as well. The family placed the house up for sale while the builders wife was still living and our client purchased it and moved into the residence in 1997.  A few weeks after moving in they began to experience paranormal activity in various areas of the building. During the past two years the activity has increased. The last 6 months even more activity has occurred with recent attacks to the client's daughter. She has experienced three claw like scratches to her right leg and left arm on two separate occasions.

The family has been losing sleep, especially the daughter. They wish for us to debunk some of the activity as well as validate some of the claims. They also hope that we can calm the activity down or stop it all together.

Investigation

The WPRS investigated the home on Friday February 24, 2012 from approximately 6:30pm to 11:30PM.  Investigators Blaschka, Beaudry, Duginski and Luisier were present.  The client gave us a tour of the property and explained where the above activity had occurred in the home.  The walk thru of the property was recorded with digital audio recorders. After the tour of the property was complete, Blaschka and Beaudry interviewed the client and her daughter in the client’s bedroom area.  After completion of that interview the client’s departed the property.

Basic equipment used during the investigation included digital cameras, digital voice recorders, Tri Field Electro Magnetic Field (EMF) meter, a 4 channel DVR camera system, K-2 meter, Infrared and Full Spectrum cameras and infrared/ambient thermal probes. A DVR camera was placed in the daughter’s bedroom and one was placed in the living room area.

We began by obtaining temperature, EMF readings and a sketch of the floor plan was drafted.  Also many infrared and full spectrum photographs were taken in various areas inside the home. The main level had temperatures between 62 and 72 degrees, with EMF readings at or near 0 Milligauss.  The basement temperatures were between 51 and 64 degrees with EMF readings between 0.2 and 0.6 Milligauss throughout.  There were no Geiger readings obtained during the evening.  During the collection of our base line readings we found no anomalous EMF or temperature variances. 

After our base readings were collected we formed a group of two investigators to perform an EVP session in the daughter’s bedroom and one session in the living room. Two investigators always stayed behind to monitor the DVR system and the other investigators used digital voice recorders to try to collect audio evidence of paranormal activity (Electronic Voice Phenomena or EVP.)  We switched out the camera monitoring persons during each EVP session and only one session was conducted at a time to avoid the chance of noise contamination. Upon later review of our EVP evidence we found several recordings that may have produced evidence of paranormal activity. During our walk thru tour a young female voice can be heard outside of the client's daughter's bedroom saying “hi”. Further into that recording a mumbling voice can be heard saying three separate words that were unintelligible. The second session (interview) was conducted in the owner’s bedroom. Beaudry and Blaschka captured several recordings during the interview of breathy gasps. Also during the beginning of Beaudry’s taping and near the end of Blaschka’s a tapping noise can be heard during the recording that was not physically heard during the interview. It should also be noted that Blaschka did not have Beaudry’s tapping noises on his tape recording and Beaudry likewise did not have Blaschka’s tapping noises on his recording. The EVP sessions in the bedroom and living room produced no anomalous sounds. Upon review of our photographs we found nothing anomalous.

During the investigation we spoke out loud several times to whatever presence may happen to be in the home.  We laid out ground rules about what the family would like followed.  We relayed the fact that the clients are uncomfortable with certain activity and asked that they abide by these basic rules when the clients are residing in the home. We also asked that it not scratch, touch or hurt the client's daughter or her mother.

 

Conclusion and Recommendations

Upon review and consideration of all the evidence collected we feel that it is likely that the clients have been experiencing paranormal activity.  The nature of that activity is somewhat uncertain.  There are two possibilities, one being more likely than the other. 

The first explanation could be that the family is experiencing an intelligent haunting. This type of activity is indicative of the experiences that the family has been experiencing. We have validated some of that activity thru the EVP’s that we have obtained.  Ninety five percent of the activity that has been reported is typical of this sort of haunt.  The basic cure for this type of activity would be to have the family talk to whatever is there, lay down ground rules and coexist with that spirit.  Generally things will quite down and the family will be more at peace and no longer frightened.

The second explanation and more likely the cause in this writer’s opinion is that the family has been experiencing the effects of a Territorial Demon. A territorial demon is a demon that has laid claim to a property. Put another way, the demon will know the entire history of the property. It will know who has lived there, what happened, when it happened, how it happened, why it happened, etc.  This gives it the advantage to mimic past events, and make the home owner believe that it is something other than a negative entity.  A key factor in determining if it is an intelligent haunt verses a demonic entity is the fact that a human spirit will not physically harm someone.

It is likely that sometime during the past someone unknowingly invited a negative entity on to the property. This could have been caused by the current home owner or previous owners going back several decades.

In closing I recommend that we locate any tool that may have been used to communicate or invite the unwanted entity and remove it from the property.  The family will need to have their house blessed by a trusted reverend or pastor of a church institution.  Any negative activity that may be occurring in the home must stop immediately. Lastly, the family must not be fearful or show any fear as the entity will feed off of this energy and become stronger. This being said the family should not provoke either. 

Following these simple rules and procedures may eliminate the current issues within the home.  Further follow up will be conducted with the family to try and resolve this issue.
