son of a gun. We have one thing planned other than Thanksgiving and it's 11/20/10 at 7:30 on South Blvd. in Charlotte, NC. Phooey1!!!!
-
Darn! Wish we could have done this while I was at Dianna's.
-
hmmm... i'm not sure what that weekend hold for us... we might be in!
-
Sounds good to me. I'll have to dust off our equipment and check the batteries.
I linked the topic to the calendar so it appears there as well. :BigGrin:
-
I'm in.
-
sounds like a group that will get into trouble to me. I'll be busy and won't be able to bail you out.
-
I can't promise we will find anything but I can promise pound cake, banana pudding for after the investigation.
-
Oh my.
-
Sounds like fun.
-
I am really looking forward to this, Lagree. :grinnnn: As it gets closer to time and we find out all who are coming, we will be trying to get organized on who will be doing what during the investigation so we can possibly capture your spirit visitor on video or audio... :good2:
-
I poked around at plane tickets.. the only cheap one doesn't fly there (southwest). The will start having flights to Charlston in March of 2011. I'm afraid that isn't soon enough.
-

ok, scott and i can't come. i've been notified of a work event and scott has paid ball games (as in he gets paid :grinnnn: ) so next one, i hope.
-
I guess we need to dicuss time and directions if anyone needs them.
-
I got your pm with the address and phone number, Lagree. Thank you...:)
Jim has ordered some more equipment to bring with us. We will, also, be trying out Frank's Box during this investigation... :BigGrin:
So far it looks as if it will be Jim, Aunt Bonnie, Lagree, and myself for the investigation. Is anyone else coming? :ScratchHead:
-
I wanna.. just now way I can get there.. What is "Frank's Box"?
-
I think Shaman is going to be there also.
-
Y'all be sure to take pics where appropriate and post. happy hunting.
-
Good to hear that Shaman may be there. Looking forward to meeting him.
I ordered some cameras that I had been talking about ordering for capturing video at different spots in the house. Also grabbed a USB input device in order to capture the video from the cameras using a laptop. We'll see how they work.
We need to nail down a time to meet as well. Probably around 7 or 8 would be good. You can give us a short tour, identifying the spots where you are having activity and then once we get everything set up, go lights out!

I modified a Radio Shack radio to make it into one of theses and we have never tried it. Here is the topic on the board about it:

Sounds like a plan to me. You have my number if you need anything.
-
so with this device you can potentially talk to a spirit?
-
Y'all be sure to take pics where appropriate and post. happy hunting.
I would love to see some pictures, if you can get some.......good luck, and stay safe!
-

Well, that is the theory. We have yet to prove it out though.

We will take lots of pictures and post any "good" ones.
-
Packing up things this morning. Will be heading down to pick Aunt Bonnie up about 2:00. Of course we will visit with her a bit before we head over to Lagree's house. Might even go out to eat before.
We will start a new topic to summarize the investigation once it's complete. I'll put a link here when we do so you can find the pictures, etc.
-
have fun, be careful!
-
Looking forward to the pictures... may the spirits be with you all.
-
Good luck on the ghost hunt. It would be cool if y'all caught something with your equipment. Looking forward to the pics.
-
How'd the hunt go? Inquiring minds want to know.... :grinnnn:
-

yes, they do :grinnnn:

Well Bonnie, Jim and Dianne, showed up and did the investigation. They are still going over the data they collected, so we will see what they come up with. I really enjoyed having them and visting with them. Dianne brought me a beautiful poinsettia, that I now have sitting next to the fireplace. I look forward to visiting with them again and investigating.
-
I haven't checked my pictures yet. I am trying to get my cord for the computer to work, but for sure we found an immaculate house, filled with beautiful antiques, a delicious home made pound cake and warm hospitality. I just love Uncle G's house. Thanks Uncle G.
-
Still reviewing the pictures. I got some strange footage with the video camera that I will need to clip so that I can upload it. It's probably nothing but it is different from all the others. I haven't reviewed the EVP session either. Doesn't appear that I got anything at all in the still shots though.
-
Did you all sense any presence?
-
Thanx Bonnie...I half way expected to find you sitting at the table having a cup of coffee when I got up Sunday morning. LOL :mornincoffee:
-
I would have stayed in the garage, even it was super nice. I finally got to go through my pictures, but I didn't get anything. I do believe you have something there from everything you say, but unfortunately ghosts don't perform on comand. Did we stir anything up?
-
The lights in Kitchen were on when I got home from work Monday. I think we may have disturb it a little, hopefully we will have better luck on the next investigation.
-
Did you all sense any presence?
Good question...........so did you?
-

That can be frustrating, but it happens. Spirits can be like stubborn children... :grinnnn:
Did you all sense any presence?
There is one time that I thought I felt something, but I believe it may have been anticipation of the event itself. :wink5:
I thought we would have to drag Aunt Bonnie out of there, kicking and screaming. Lagree has a beautiful home that could rival any in the home decorating magazines that are sold...:)
I am still waiting on Jim to edit the film and post it... :waiting:
BTW, Lagree makes a wonderful pound cake, too... :542:
-
Ok I finally got NERO 10 figured out and working properly so I'll post a bit of a summary here of our investigation while the first clip is uploading to YouTube.
This investigation took place on 11/20/2010 in Bonneau, SC. This was at the home of Lagree (UNCLEG), one of our members.
Those present for the investigation were Dianna, Bonnie, Lagree and myself. We arrived at the location at approximately 8:00PM. Outside temperature was 54°, relative humidity was 100%, with the barometer at 39.29 and rising. The wind was calm. The moon was full and the solar activity was normal, quiet.
Lagree gave us a tour of the house and pointed out the locations that he had experienced some things that were unexplainable. We set-up our equipment and went lights out at approximately 8:45PM.
We set one wireless IR camera pointed toward the kitchen doors where you could see the cabinets on the right where Lagree has some lights that turn on and off by themselves. You could also see the doors that open and close on their own. The videos that will be included are all from that camera, labeled Kitchen. We each had our own digital cameras and I had an opportunity to do an EVP session when Bonnie, Dianna, and Lagree were in the backyard. I did not get anything significant during the EVP session. We used several K2 EMF detectors during the night without any positive indications. None of the photos that I took had anything significant in the content.
We turned the lights back on approximately 9:45PM and then tried "Frank's box" for the first time during an investigation. I video-taped that and have not watched it, but I think it's usefulness was inconclusive. Aunt Bonnie recorded the session on a voice recorder so maybe she will weigh in as to what was on that if anything.
Ok here is the first video. It is the longest. Be sure and watch it closely to see the different orbs. I don't think any of these shots are conclusive there there is paranormal activity. The only reason I posted the video is because I think they are interesting. The movement and brightness of the orbs changes from time to time and that caught my eye. What do you think?

I saw a couple of orbs.
-
Here's the next one. It seems as if there were lots more orbs in the first one that the latter. I have one more video to render and that does it.

Here is the last one.

-
I saw orbs in the first one. Didn't notice any in the other two. I will have to watch again in a bit.
-
There was a marked difference in that area in temperature, but I attributed it to the glass doors. Maybe not?
-
OK, I've watched these several times. I do now see orbs in all of them, though much more so in the first one. Aside from that, I am seeing something in all three videos which might be easily explained by those that were there, or those that were operating the equipment, but... on top of the cupboards about half way down on the left, I swear I see an oversized cat's head that moves. I see it in all three videos, in the same place, which suggests there's an explanation, but I see it.
-
:Watching: :dunno:
-
I really don't know how else to explain what I'm seeing. It would be directly above the microwave. And its whitish/cloudish looking but shaped like a cat's head, but would be a really really big cat if it were one. I might have to check these videos out on the other computer.
-
OK, I watched these on my other computer and still see it. Maybe Jim, Dianna, or Bonnie will weight in on it.
Jim, have you thought about leaving that camera set up all night? There seemed to be a lot of orb activity in there.
-
Yeah I thought about it but remember it is streaming video to a laptop set up as a DVR. With the resolution that I set, the first file was quite large and would easily fill a 160 Gig hard drive in a few hours. I think it would factor out to about 1.4 GB for every 30 minutes.
-
I see what you are talking about Barb. There definitely looks to be a head about the cabinets on the left side middle that moves in and out of the pictures.
I saw the orbs as well.
-
Good, I'm not nuts. lol
-
Sun, its not a cat. No house pets. There are some silk grapevines and wine bottles up there, I am almost positive that it is part of the grape vine, there is a large clump in that area. Took me awhile to figure it out, been standing in the dark looking up to figure it out.
-
i was wondering!
-
Why would it move around? Is there a vent blowing that way? I'm sure I'm just seeing things.
-
It does look like its moving ?????? There are no vents up there and the ceiling fans were off...I even turned the heat off as to not interfere with the investigation. I want to think that it is some sort of an illusion caused by the camera of just by being shown on a computer. The leaves are variegated so perhaps the color difference appears as movement on film. I'm just guessing.
-
Can you shoot some more video of that area in the same conditions, focusing on that area rather than the whole room to see if you get the same reflections?
-
Nice video Jim, I did see alot of orbs in the video. To me it look like dust being stirred up when someone would walk by but, what really intrest me is the orbs that moved fast... since there was no air coming out of the vents to push dust and saw in the first video a dust partical actuall fall straight down onto the counter. Going off the video, I would say either you have something their not sharing the bills :giggle: or you got some visitors passing thru. Was there any EVP done while doing the investigation? And cant wait to the pictures.
-
Well I guess we will have to try again another day.
