Paranormal Activity Eyewitness Reports
The cottage has been owned for the past 20 years by the same occupants. They have experienced a number of strange activities that they believe are linked to the paranormal.
They have heard strange noises throughout the property, and have found that the dog will bark for no apparent reason. Several people have also felt uncomfortable as they have had the sensation of being touched whilst in the cottage. The owners have also found that items have moved without any interaction from them.
Investigation Report
Due to the fact that the team we unable to stay late at the Jail, they scheduled to perform this investigation on their way back. The team arrived at the property at 23.45 and instantly unpacked their equipment.
The team performed the standard base line checks in various locations, but were limited to only the ground floor as the occupants we using the rest of the premises. The results are listed below:
Living Room
TEMP: 23
EMFS: Normal
Dining Room
TEMP: 24.5
EMFS: Normal
Hallway
TEMP: 22
EMFS: Normal
KITCHEN
TEMP: 24.4
EMFS: Normal
Once this was completed, and all the cameras were set up, the team gathered in the living room and sat for a little while. The idea of this was to allow them time to adjust to their surroundings, like the noises of traffic coming from outside, and the boiler in the kitchen. This was followed by the team performing their "Protection" procedure which involves a private thought, and is normally done before all investigations to prevent anything "bad" entering into the investigation.
Whilst the team were sat in the living room, they tried to summon spirits by performing the "Glass test" by placing a glass on the table and placing a single finger each on the top. They then asked a few questions out loud in the room, and waited to see if there would be any response either in the room, or through the glass. The team found that they had no response.
They then spread out a little and touched hands, and started calling out again. After a short while the team started to feel the presence of something in the room, like a cool breeze and then started to hear various noises in response to some of the questions they were asking. Sandra had hot rushes of energy go through her legs on two occasions.
As the investigation continued, the team found that the room was starting to heat up and that most of them could feel the temperature increase, except Gill who found that she had started to feel very cold without explanation.
Conclusion
The team experienced several unexplained activities, and also caught many floating orbs on the night camera's, which has convinced them that there was definitely a presence of some kind in the cottage. They found that most of the responses happened when the names of previous owners where called out. They also believed that the heat felt by Sandra under the table could have been the presence of a dog that once lived in the cottage, as the current owners had confirmed that their own beloved pet had passed away in the house.
They found that there were no other photos displaying anything unusual, but do feel that with more time spent investigating the whole property, they would be able to gather more evidence of a paranormal presence.
