Our latest investigations have included two abandoned schools, the Dian-Lee Bed and Breakfast, and a magnificent structure that is now the Bluefield, WV Performing Art Center.

The first school that we investigated is Ramsey School, in Bluefield, WV.  This structure has five floors, and includes a large open boiler room.  When we started the investigation, we used our Ovilus to try to see if any spirits wanted to communicate.  Immediately we started to hear the word fell, and nothing else.  So we continued investigating, and the word fell was heard on every floor we went on except in the boiler room.   We did not find out more on this until later in the investigation.  We all heard the sound of young voices, on three separate floors.  Our main area of activity was on the uppermost band floor.  Here we all heard young voices, mostly female, and one incident happened where I had a 9 volt battery in my pocket to use for dead battery situations.  It all of a sudden started to get red hot, and it was the only thing in my pocket.  Nothing else was there, no coins, nothing else.  I took it out and set it on a window ledge, and it continued to stay too hot to touch for nearly 10 minutes.  I have no explanation for this.  As we started our way down the staircase, on the landing from the third to second floor, we all paused when we heard a long terrified scream.  This scream was captured on handheld recorders, and also on the uppermost floor video recorder.  We all felt this was the scream from someone falling, since we had no other communication from anyone that spoke of a fall. 

I will show you two photos from this building that we could not explain. One of these photos has drawn much attention because it has so many images in it, where it should not have anything showing at all. 

This is the white wall with light streaming in on it from outside street lighting through window panes.  See if you can see all the images of people here that shouldn't be here.

This mist should not be here, more than 20 feet up in the air, with no air flow at all in the boiler room.  No explanation for this.

The next school we investigated is one of the most incredible structures in the city of Bluefield, WV.  This is Central Junior High School, and formerly Beaver High School.  It is known as the castle on the hill.  Reports from this building included a small ghost girl in the hallways, and statues of a boy and a girl on the building front facade, to remember some children that supposedly died from a fire here.  

Findings in this building included some stunning photos of ghostly energy.  In one of them, you will have to look closely, but can see a skull floating in midair looking at me as I snap a photo in the library.  It is very creepy.  Another photo is at the end of a hallway, and you can clearly see a man's face with combed over hair in a glowing part of the back wall and doorway.  Very startling.  While there I did notice the presence of a small girl spirit, that at times came up and touched my hand, and as she did, I reacted as if I felt a tremendous coldness on my hand.  This is verified on audio.  At other times, we all heard voices in rooms, and mainly in the library here.  Another instance happened when I asked the shadow figure to move across the motion detector sensor line, and he did.  This is also verified on video. ( I can also state that a story about this school will be on WVVA TV in July. )  This was a terrific investigation, that yielded nearly 7 class A evp's.  I will be loading some of these on the EVP page here soon.

This is a photo that has so much going on I can't even tell you all of it.  Primarily, look at the lighted area on the left side of the back door.  You will see the face of a man, with combed over hair.  Then, look and see if you see more ghostly images in this photo, they are there.

In this photo, you see me snapping a photo in a time lapse setting.  We twere trying to capture a shadow figure image.  To my right as you see me, look in the oval lens flare, to the left side of the flare.  There is an incredible image of something floating here.  See if you can tell what it is!

Our next investigation took us to the Magnificent Dian-Lee Bed and Breakfast, in Bluefield, WV.  This house has some of the most spectacular rooms in all of the city, and you can easily see why this is one of the countries most premier bed and breakfast houses.  We started out in the sunroom, and I immediately felt the sweet presence of a woman, almost as if she was seeing if I was worthy of being in her home.  She gave me a very calm feeling, and I felt it was as if she was accepting me into her place of residence.  I have verifiable female voices from this room, during this time also.  

We moved on into the other parts of the home, and found some unexplainable electromagnetic frequency readings on several of the beds in separate rooms.  Our Ovilus was also speaking to us, answering questions, posing some of its own, and seemed to be showing us that some spirit was accompanying us through the house.  Some of the most startling events of the night included what we think was Billy, the small boy of former long ago owners, come out of his bedroom when we asked him to, and set off the motion detectors.  He also kept telling us fell, as if he wanted us to know he fell, or his mother fell, which is a true account of her falling and getting badly injured one day hanging curtains.  He seemed to be some how brain deficient, as he was talking in broken syllables and repeating himself constantly.  He also seemed to like a curse word, as he kept using it in several rooms.  I will post one photo here of what we have tried to explain rationally but have not been able to.   Look in the right side mirror in this room, and see if you can figure out who is looking out of the mirror.

This is the original photo, very dark, and gave us a first indication of spirit activity, was the two glowing balls of energy on each of the mirrors. Obviously a flash from a camera cannot give off two sets of reflections, and this doesn't appear to be a flash reflection anyway.

This is the same photo after we have provided artificial light to brighten the darkness.  NOW, look in the right mirror.  And notice the angle of what appears to be a face!

Our most recent investigation took us to the Bluefield WV Performing Art Center.  This building has previously housed the city courthouse, and also the jail on the upper floor.  We were very excited about this building as there had been very recent reports of activity on the stage, actually while the latest play THE PASSING OF PEARL was going on!  So we went in and proceeded to investigate.  I should report that at this time, I am still reviewing evidence from this building, but I will leave you with a few photos that left us with mouths agape.  And I will be reporting more on this building as the evidence is reviewed and verified.

In this photo, there should be no reflection off the doorway on the right, yet there is, and absolutely NO explanation for the glowing mist on the left of the stage here. This was taken by a professional photographer, with a professional camera, including hooded lens.

This is a bizarre green image in the mirror, that could not possibly have been reflecting off anything in the small hallway.  We checked, and there was nothing this color there, and nothing that would have reflected back to begin with.

Stunning image here.  Look up high in the curtains, and see if you see the man's face looking down at the stage.  This is nearly 12 feet up in the air here.

A great shot here of energy moving toward the Ovilus onstage, and when I thought I had heard it say something also.
