Jen’s House
Date: 10/29/05 (10:45pm – 11:40pm)
Equipment: Digital Audio
Investigators: Jen, Harmony
Report by: Harmony
Background:
Jen has many stories about the spooky things that happen in her house, along with some pictures. One of the odder
pictures was that of a man standing in her window, his hand and a necktie most visible. I wasn’t sure what to
make of the stories or the picture, considering how skeptical I am of even the things I’ve seen myself, but we
decided to take a walk with the digital audio while I was over to visit and play DDR one night.
Investigation:
The investigation started at around 10:45pm or so, when
Jen gave me a tour of the ‘hotspots’ in her house. My first impression of the home was comfortable and rather
non-threatening, but that all changed when she took me to the basement.
I was immediately uncomfortable upon descending the stairs and had to repeatedly turn around to make sure I wasn’t
being followed. Then Jen told me about how she and her sister always feel as if someone were watching them. I didn’t
feel observed, so much as followed. Jen took me to the extra bathroom in the basement; the
room where she always felt most uncomfortable. I asked some questions to any spirit that may have been in the room
with us, especially after Jen told me about how her family had
found a dark red substance on one of the curtains in this room when they first moved in. On a personal level, I especially felt
observed in this room, later I told Jen that it very well may have been uncomfortable down there for entirely scientific reasons,
like an increased electro-magnetic field. Still, I couldn’t help but turn when I heard someone coming up the stairs behind me;
of course, there was no one to be seen. We came up to the kitchen, and Jen refreshed me about the
photo she took of the man in the window, and how she often heard pots and pans clattering to the floor. Always, upon
inspection, the pans and pots were in place in the drain board. We asked more questions, then, moved to the second floor.
In Jen’s bedroom, she told me about her television turning itself off (which could be explained by an electrical issue, and may
be related to the eerie feeling in the basement,) and a light bulb blowing while the lamp was turned off. However, when she felt
her bed compressing from someone unseen sitting at the end, I wasn’t so full of explanations, especially since I’ve had the
same experience in the past. Again, we asked more questions, and then went back downstairs to the living room.
We sat down on separate couches and began to visit, but I left the recorder running, just in case. We talked for
a while, when we were interrupted by the sound of the dogs’ food bowl scrapping across he kitchen floor. We paused
and took inventory of the dogs, and found them both sleeping in their cages next to us. We were the only
people awake in the house, and were sitting at the only way down from the bedrooms on the second floor.
After a few moments, we heard the sound again, but
louder. In a few moments, we decided to investigate and were able to re-create the sound by shoving aside
the dog bowl with a foot. However, we failed to
explain how it could have moved so by itself. We continued to joke around, and I remarked that
I needed to pack up my PS2 and dancepads before my ride arrived. We began packing, but I left the recorder on the
arm of the couch across the room.
During the course of the evening, I kept remarking how I thought I saw something in the computer room,
but it was probably just my imagination since I had worked all that day. Jen offered me some Halloween
candy, and we went and got some in the computer room. Shortly after that, I put on my coat, and in a
little while, I left for the night. The next day at work, I listened to the tape.
