Investigation

This case comes to us out of Raleigh, N.C. We arrived to the location at approximately 7:30pm on October 11th.  Upon arrival we were taken on a tour of the home so the client could show us where the reported activity had been taking place.  This is a fairly large split level home that consists of about 2200 square ft.  After the tour we set up equipment (See Tech Manager notes for locations).  After equipment set up was completed we began the investigation. 

 

Since the activity primarily happened during the client's normal nightly routine, we asked the client to start getting ready for bed.  We wanted to see if anything would happen as she is usually attacked while asleep, or going to sleep.  While the client was going through her bedtime routine we began downstairs in the kitchen by conducting an EVP session, and Religious Provocation. (David did talk to the client about provoking and received her permission prior to the investigation) While in the sunroom, next to the kitchen, we started to use a mild form of Religious Provocation while doing the EVP session. While doing this, the team heard two loud bangs coming from inside the attic above us.  About a minute later the motion sensor in the attic was triggered. (It is important to note here that the attic was sealed off completely and there was nothing in it that could have moved to trigger it)  About a minute and a half later the client came down from her bedroom and reported being poked in the head and her hair being pulled while she was lying down.  For the rest of the investigation she remained with the team. Before finishing up the EVP session in the sunroom, Anne heard something moving around in the front living room twice, and she felt a very cold spot behind the couch on which she and David were sitting. We then decided to move into the front Living room to conduct an EVP session in there. While in this room Anne reported being touched on the elbow by something behind her. We looked around behind her and there was nothing there for her to have brushed up against or hit.  After finishing the EVP session in the living room we took a short break and straightened up the sunroom (the reason for this will become apparent shortly) then proceeded to the client's son's current room to conduct an EVP session in there. While in this room Chris detected a cold spot about two feet off the floor near the door, moving slowly towards the bed.  At this time the air was off, and was felt by everyone in the room. This cold spot lasted for about 5 minutes.  Chris was also touched on the arm while we were in this room. After finishing the EVP session in the son's room, we checked on the equipment around the house to make sure it was still functioning.  We discovered a cushion on the couch in the sunroom had been moved while all of us were in the son's room doing the EVP session.  The sofa had been straightened up before heading into the son's room, but now a cushion had been stood up in a complete vertical position.  This personal experience will be investigated further on a future investigation.

 

We then broke off into teams of two. Chris and David proceeded to the daughter's room (this room was formerly the son's room and where the window pane shattered on its own from the inside out), and Anne and the client went back downstairs to the sunroom area. While Chris and David were upstairs, David noticed that a cubby door that he had closed and locked was open with the lock still in the locked position. While Chris and David were in the girl's room conducting an EVP session, they both heard movement in the corner of the bedroom next to a dresser. A few minutes later the motion sensor in the attic was triggered for a second time. After completing this session in the girl's room we all met in the Master bedroom for a quick EVP session before ending the investigation. We finished up around 11pm as the kids needed to get to bed for the night, and we headed out around 11:30pm. During the tear down, the cubby door was observed opening and closing on it's own.  It was discovered that the pressure that was created when the front door opened and closed caused this door to move, however does not explain how this door was opened after it was locked.  This will also be investigated in more detail on a future investigation.

 

During this investigation we also tested each TV to try and recreate them turning off and on, even leaving the TV on in the master bedroom for some time.  It did not shut off on its own.  We were not able debunk this personal experience.

 

There were many shared and personal experiences during this investigation. Below you will find some of the EVP's collected during this investigation.

 

Evidence:

 

 

(*) This EVP was captured in the Kitchen area.  What you are going to hear is the demon speaking and then whistling.


 

(*) This EVP was captured in the Kitchen area too. You are going to hear very loud and defined scratching.

(Tech Manager note: The recorder was set on a chair with a microphone attached, hanging off the edge of the chair...  No one was near the recorder when this EVP was picked up) 

 

(*) This EVP was captured in the girl's room while Chris and David were checking out the window in which the pane shattered.

(*) This EVP was captured in the girl's room also, however, there was no one present in the room at the time and it was closed off. The talking in the background is team members in another room.

(*) In this EVP you are going to hear the demon saying the name of one of the people that lives in the home. The homeowner has given us permission to play this EVP as it is not her name, nor can anyone find out who the client is by this name being said.

 

House Blessing - 12/2/08

David arrived at the home on December 2nd, 2008 at approximately 8:00 a.m.  It is important to note here that since the date of the investigation, the home no longer has any occupants, or power. Instead of renewing the lease for rent at the end of November, the client took the opportunity to move out and stay with family until finding another place to live. The N.A.D.P team has been able to continue to have access to the home so that it could be blessed.  

 

Upon arrival, David was the only one present at the home. He began setting up the audio equipment in the family room, front living room, the girls old bedroom, master bedroom, and attic. He then began the house blessing by starting in the crawl space of the home, and then moving from there to the main part of the house which consists of the kitchen/ dining room area, and living room. While performing the house blessing in the kitchen area he heard what sounded like knocking or thumping coming from above him in the attic. However, this was not captured on the audio from the attic.

 

While he was performing the house blessing in the family room, he had the feeling that he should not be in the home. This feeling did diminish though as he continued to bless the rest of the home. Upon finishing the downstairs portion of the home he moved upstairs to bless the bedrooms. David did not experience any other type of activity while upstairs, or throughout the rest of the house blessing. He finished at approximately 9:10 a.m. and left.  Due to the fact that this was such a strong demon, David feels that the home will need to be blessed again. The fact that only three EVP’s were captured is a good sign that the house blessing did weaken the demon significantly, thus, a second blessing will hopefully drive the demon out completely.

 

 Evidence:

 

This EVP was captured in the family room while David was blessing the bedrooms upstairs. We can not however understand what its saying.

 

This EVP was captured just before the attic was blessed. What you will hear is the demon mimicking the voice of the former tenant, by saying David’s name in a whisper around the 3 second mark. David believes it did this to let him know that it was still there, and to remind him of how powerful it is. This is just one example of why the home will need to be blessed again.
