Smalls Cemetery
is located near Cooperstown Pa
just off of Rt. 427.
There have been many urban legends that
this cemetery is the final resting place of a group of witches. Through all of
the research that O.R.P.I.T. has done and that other people have contributed to, we have found no evidence of this.
The only record of any type of witchcraft
performed was found in local newspapers reporting of the possibility that people were entering the cemetery recently to “practice”
witchcraft.
Throughout the years this cemetery has
vandalized over and over again with people shooting the headstones, breaking headstones and leaving wax buildup on headstones.
The investigation took place on September
23, 2007. We arrived at the site at 10:15 p.m. to find that the cemetery had
a heavy duty metal gate at the access point and the entire site surrounded by wire fencing that had holes throughout. The cemetery was in very nice condition as though individuals had been doing the upkeep
for some time.
Due to the closed gate we stood on the
outside of the gate and fencing during the time we were there.
For this investigation there was no electrical
source in the area so we were constricted to using battery operated equipment.
- Infrared Camera System
- Digital Voice Recorders
- E.M.F. Detectors
- K2 Meter
- Digital Camera
- Infrared Thermometers
It was pretty chilly so we only stayed
for about an hour. After investigating for an hour we left to go over all of
the documentation that had been gathered.
78 minutes 50 seconds of audio recordings
58 photos
40 minutes of video
During the investigation we only had one
“odd” feeling.
It occurred as soon as we arrived and were
standing at the gate. Scott had the E.M.F detector out and had his hand
through the gate. He stated that he was getting a cold spot as he waved the meter
around and the meter gave a reading of 1.4 through 1.6 and lasted only for a few seconds.
I snapped a photo, reviewed it and saw three orbs.
Due to the fact that we were outside walking
around we have to reason that these orbs are nothing more than particle orbs. Plus we do not believe that any of the
three orbs have the makeup of a true energy orb.
