Background
July 21, 2006 - FPRF received e-mail from a 46-year-old male living in Melbourne. He wrote from his lady friend’s computer, and asked that we phone him at her house to speak of strange events happening to her and himself at his residence. He did want to discuss his situation while in his home. FPRF Investigator Gail Works was assigned as 'Point' and responded to him, at which time a Scientific oriented investigation was scheduled.
Report by: Gail Works
August
5, 2006 - FRPF Science team, consisting of
members Krista Mattson, Jackie Duryea, and Mary Lou
Colga
n
and myself, arrived at the client’s home at approximately 8:25 p.m., where we
were greeted by him
and his lady
friend. We went inside and the team proceeded
to take base line readings of the home while I continued with
the interview process. A mini tape recorder was used to record the session, as
well as to pick up any incidental EVP phenomenon
in the immediate area that might have occurred.
The client initially
reported to me that the events that had been occurring for the past six to eight
weeks.
The majority of
incidents have occurred in the client’s bedroom between the hours of midnight
and 4:00 a.m.,
so that he was awakened from sleep. More than once, he reports being unable to
move because the sheet or blanket
was pressed tight against his body, almost as if something was lying next to
him. The most frightening incident
was when he awoke feeling a “presence” in the chair nex
t
to his bed. His back was turned away from it, so
he saw nothing, but he “felt” it wanted him to turn
and make contact with it. The client
was very frightened and would not turn toward
it, but prayed until the feeling went away.
This incident
lasted about one minute. Since that time, the client had not slept in the
bedroom. Most recently, his front door locked
by itself while he briefly went outside. He went to a neighbor’s home to phone
a locksmith, but when he returned, the door opened easily. His cat regularly
sits in the hallway, staring upward at the wall as though watching something.
Of significance is the fact that
the client’s stepfather passed in May of this year. While they were not on
great terms, there was no real strife in their relationship. However, in June,
the client went to North Carolina to
visit with his mother, and he was given some money with which to purchase a
car. He also transported back with
him many items originally belonging to the stepfather. He is pretty certain
that this is when the incidents began
occurring. He has stated that he wonders if his stepfather
might be angry because his mom helped him to
purchase his car. He confided in his mother just last week regarding his paranormal
experiences since this occurred. He stated, his
mother is now having her own unexplained
incidents as well. A new telephone she purchased in June has been playing some
sort of music every night at midnight for about one minute. The client
instructed her to call the manufacturer, but they informed her th
at
they do not have any music programmed into that model of telephone. The science
did obtained a few anomalies throughout the
night. Krista felt a strange sensation in the bedroom and noted that her
EMF was reading higher than the base line recorded earlier. She was
disappointed however not to capture anything else at that
moment for a double verification (photo, EVP or
temperature variance). Krista did capture a few photo's of unexplained
energy patterns near our team members in the living room area as they were
taking readings of the home. There was a mixed consensus amongst us
afterwards on whether the home is haunted based strictly on the hard data
obtained and the family dynamics involved. I will forward this on to FPRF
for the decision whether or not to proceed on to a Spiritual Investigation.
