Correspondence between the client and FPRF continued almost daily. Ms V______ sought the assistance of Dr Andrew Nichols of the American Institute of Parapsychology but did not receive the help or answers she sought. It was eventually decided to sent a point person to the home to investigate the case in person. Mr. Tyson Anderson was assigned to the case. Below is his report.

Report by Tyson Anderson - 22 Sept 03
Location: Tampa, FL
Client: Kris ______
Arrived at the clients houses at 2:05 in the afternoon and was warmly received by Miss _________ who had been dozing outside by her pool. The reason for this she said was because she was afraid to go inside, that it hurt her when they were around hugging at her and pushing at her. She said that the house had been so full of energy earlier that it had seemed filled with mist. After accepting a glass of lemonade I brought out the forms and had her sign the release from first. I then started with the other forms, as this was not a single phenomenon we were dealing with I found the forms a little hard to use and decided to go with the first time she noticed it and generalized information about the multiple phenomenon. Her first phenomenon happened while she was sitting in the living room chair and it came to her attention that her legs where very cold, much colder than they should be. At first Ms. _________ thought it was due to poor circulation. However the feeling persisted and she felt surprise. As to the end of this phenomenon she says that she still feels cold. After ward she was feeling overwhelmed and pleased. Miss. _________ wears reading glasses which had been worn at the time of this phenomenon. She is not color blind and due to medication is sensitive to light. Miss _________ also maintains that she has very sensitive hearing doe not use a hearing aid and was not actively listening at the time.. She also maintains that she has a good sense of smell and can normally identify odors. She is allergic to penicillin and was not and is not suffering from a cold.
Several times in her house she has smelled two different odors, that of stale cigar smoke, and that of what Miss _________ described as expensive perfume. Neither smoke and I can only assume that it was not her perfume. The stale smoke smell appears in and around an old chair and the smell of perfume in the computer room hallway. The odors have not changed and lasted about 10 minutes she said. The apparitions do make physical contact with her and this causes her physical pain. Other physical phenomenon that have occurred are heat cold, and electric tingling, physical touch, and once the feel of a dogs nosed pressed against her cheek. This she said was Bear, her old dog, at this I felt a little skeptical. No identifying marks have been left. Ms. _________ is currently taking prescribed pain medication due to a car wreck she was in and she does not drink.
Having established these facts I went onto the second questionnaire, once again covering several different phenomenon. The only witnessed event took place on August 18th around 2:00PM when Miss. _________s friend Helen Cook came to visit her friend. Miss _________ said that someone was with her. Said spirit then sat on Miss. _________ crushing her into her seat. The person turned out to be Miss. Cook’s grandfather. They then proceeded to ask questions to which Miss _________ claimed to know have been able to already know the answer and she got them right. I have yet to contact Miss Cook Regarding this incident. The weather had been hot and humid with no lightening or thunder and no precipitation. There were not any accompanying temperature variations or electrical problems.
A second incident occurred on an August Monday of indeterminate date under the same atmospheric conditions. No witnesses other than Miss _________ were present .at the time. She was doing cleaning in the attic while on a ladder. While she was working a dark, large, male, figure which she mistook for her husband came up and stood behind her. As there was no reassuring greeting she felt that her husband was mad at her and turned to ask him what was wrong. However nothing was there, the figure had vanished. Due to Miss _________’s position at the time she was unable to ascertain whether it cast a shadow. The apparition did not move objects or make eye contact. The apparition did not try to make any recognizable form of contact and moved from behind her to a closer position to her also behind. Despite this she said the apparition was clothed in jeans and a T-shirt. It was visible for 15-20s. She had not been sleeping before the sighting but was tired as she was working. She did not scream as she had originally mistook it for her husband. After it had vanished she said to it “don’t tell me your one of those men who stands around watching women work.” No picture or video was taken of the apparition and she did not attempt to approach the apparition. Miss. _________ believes the apparition was watching her and has experienced similar instances before although she does not know of anybody who has had similar experiences before. During this sighting no animals were present, no objects broke and no noises were heard.
However during other instances to which she made reference the pet ferret reacted to an unknown forces presence.
I then asked if I could do a walk through with my camera. As we had been outdoors on her patio because she felt safe there we moved inside. Once inside I started taking pictures. Miss. _________ constantly urged the spirits to come out so I could get pictures of them so that I and Mr. Tedana would see she was not insane especially since she had taken so long to get a hold of us. As I walked through she warned me that I had stepped into a portal, 2:45PM, where I felt a cold draft. Upon investigation there was a nearby AC vent not necessarily pointed at the spot, however I felt it necessary to discount this occurrence as supernatural. As I entered the computer room she said that one of the spirits liked to hang around there and that it was there. She removed her necklace and started to use it as a pendulum instructing the spirit as to what was yes and what was no. During this instead of observing the necklace I took pictures. On one of my pictures an orb like object appeared. However as this bright object appeared over a computer screen I believe I might need to discount it. As I poked around in the rooms I started getting an electric creepy crawlie feeling, 3:10PM. The TV had been left on an oldies music station to which I had not been paying attention. Miss. _________ and I adjourned once again outside in order that I might listen to her EVPs and see some photographs. Only one EVP was able to be located, it was on magnetic tape and a separated unidirectional mike was used to record the sound. On it a heart beat is clearly audible while Miss. _________’s voice sounds in the background. After once of her questions a edgy electric noise like a voice mated with Stephen Hawking’s voice program on acid sounded. I could not make out what had been said. After this I came back in and took some more pictures Miss. _________ remained outside for a bit and when she came back in she asked what I was listening to. What I did not take note of was that the station had somehow switched to blue grass a single channel away. The remote lay on top of the TV where it had been left and was undisturbed. I walked through again taking pictures. Then we moved toward the bedroom where she said most of the activity took place. I took some pictures and she then took out some dowsing rods and proceeded to use them asking questions of the spirits. The rods would cross or spread apart in answer to her questions while I kept shooting, none of those pictures revealed anything. Miss _________ claimed to be speaking with 4 different entities within the dowsing session. One was a woman, one was a young man named Tim killed in a motorcycle accident who she claims owned a cherry red motor cycle. This was the only one who wanted something she claims. There was also an old 96 year old man named George, and an unnamed “mean man” who she claimed kept grabbing hold of the rods to refuse anyone to answer her. This mean man was shoved out of the way by George. It is this “mean man” that is the focal point of our investigation as Miss. _________ claims it has attached itself to her and wants it removed as well as the others removed. During this at approximately 3:45PM there was a perfect crystalline ping which came from the adjacent bathroom. I went to go see what it was but could find no solution. I checked the faucet heads and shower head yet all were dry. There were no cracks in any of the glass. And no noticeable temperature difference might have caused a sudden flux in the glass. Miss _________ said this sound was produced occasionally when one of the spirits came through the glass. After this and taking a few more pictures I left around 3:56PM and let her know that we would keep in contact with her.

7 Nov 03 Case Status : Closed - Findings Inconclusive
Last contact with client was made on 3 Nov. She stated that while she still felt an energy in the house she was learning to deal with it via some spiritual teachings with local metaphysical groups and reading books. At this point in time she has decided that a new phase of her life is opening up and has decided to learn to deal with this herself, indicating a full blown investigation would not be required at this time. Case is closed for now as 'inconclusive' only because findings of an actual haunting could not be documented from several sources as a science team was not formed. Initial preliminary photo's taken on-site by Tyson Anderson during the initial interview however, did show a presence of an anomaly.
