Central Texas Paranormal Society

Our latest investigation brought many challenges with it. First of all we had a guest investigator with us and secondly this investigation was conducted outside. Our guest is a novice to the paranormal realm with several personal experiences that have spanned her lifetime, but until Kempner she has never participated in any sort of paranormal investigation. We will refer to our guest as “J”. Moving on to the family in Kempner who consist of several adults both male and female and a visiting 2 year old female. The claims made by our family are that they feel an uncomfortable presence while outside on the back patio of their home. They also state that this presence has been known to move objects and has been visualized by the 2 year old child. Obviously the child was frightened and has asked the “bad man” to go away. Understandably it was imperative that we act on this case quickly, whether we were able to prove the families claims or dispel their fears the child needed assurance and comfort. The night of our investigation was difficult to say the least the weather was changing and the wind was picking up. This made the tedium of analyzing video tape and digital sound and images more of a chore. We started by setting up both of the IR cameras on opposite ends of the yard. We set one up to record images of a shed where resident “M” says he feels a heavy oppressive sensation. The second camera we set up on the end of the patio. This is the area that Pami and Josh will do all of the EVP work with the occupants of the home. Something very interesting happened while we setting up equipment and checking camera angles, the cable that feeds the images from the IR camera back to our laptop somehow became disconnected. This seems far fetched I know but one minute we were receiving images on the laptop to calibrate and then there were no images. While tracing down the problem we discovered that the cables had been disconnected. Occupant “K” states that “he doesn’t want you here”. We are not going to be so easily swayed, so we continued to set up equipment and get base line reading for temperature and EMF. We got some very high EMF readings by the shed and by the corner of the yard on the opposite side. Both places the homeowners claim to be very uncomfortable. The average temperature that night was between 68 and 75 degrees and as I noted before the wind was really blowing. Pami and Josh sat down at the table on the porch with homeowners “M and K” as well as two other female adults and began their Evp session. Pop as usual manned the laptop, the IR cameras and his own still digital camera. I took our guest “J” and began to walk the property taking digital still photos. Upon initial review of my digital images and “J’s” images we caught many images of orbs, imagine that being outside in the wind. But there were a few that actually cannot be explained as dust as so many investigators are so quick to do. There is one orb image in particular that seems to be floating just above occupant “M’s” left shoulder while we are down at the back end of the property. This orb is green in appearance, and when this photo was taken “M” actually told us to shoot the picture at that moment because the spirit was there with him. While on the patio with Pami and Josh, multiple attempts were made to communicate with the spirit. We did not have much luck at first, but after several hours of trying we were able to get some compelling EVP’s. I was also able to get a photo of an orb that was so bright that it almost appears to be a solid image in the photo. And again I was directed by both of the homeowners to shoot in that specific location at that specific time. This orb is centered between occupant “K” and “M”. The EVP’s we recorded are fascinating. There is one particularly clear one that is male stating “I want to go home”, another that states “f__k you”, one that sounds almost like two women and then there is one that sounds as if its may be a child. We were also able to record a few yes’s and no’s. Throughout the night our homeowners expressed their concerns and distress over the presence of this spirit or spirits. Their fears seemed to be more from why the spirit is there and why does it need to communicate with them, since all they want is to have it/them go away. We encouraged the homeowners to ask the spirits to leave, to tell them that it is time to move on. After several hours we concluded our investigation and drove back to Waco. All the evidence was sifted through and only the genuine photos and EVP were reveled to the homeowners. When questioned about the activity around their home we were told that all the family members are no longer afraid and there is no longer the oppressive feeling they had felt before. As with all investigations our clients are told that the calm feelings may only be temporary and that we will be in touch to monitor the situation. All in all a positive outcome.
