Client Report:

Clients report that they moved in to the residence, which was built in the late 1890’s, in September of 2006 with their four children.  Both clients state that they loved the house and for them it felt like home from the first time they did a walk through of the residence.

They report that their one child, a female adolescent, stated that she disliked the house the moment they were doing the walkthrough and asked that they not move in to the residence.

Clients report that when they moved in to the residence that the family seemed to be struck with a lot of bad luck.  This included the one client breaking an ankle halting any remodeling, a member of the extended family passed and a serious work related accident.  All of these occurred within a few months of moving in to the new house.

Soon after all of these happenings the client’s adolescent daughter began showing signs of depression and was later diagnosed with a form of depression.

Clients report that their daughter has reported the following to them and feel that if there is something in the residence that it is attracted to her and affecting her in a negative way.  (This member of the family was not available to be interviewed by our investigators.)

The client reports that her daughter has told her of not being able to sleep, feelings of always being watched, hearing voices, seeing black and white forms in her bedroom and hearing a growling noise from the closet area in her room.  Also she feels very uncomfortable with the basement and third floor areas.

The client states that over the past few years that her daughters encounters have become worse and she contacted our group for an investigation to either rule out or find some type of evidence of a malevolent force that may be forcing her daughter to do certain things.

We asked the clients if they had ever experienced any type of paranormal occurrences in the residence.  The male client said that he had only experienced a few unknown happenings in the residence.  He stated that he was in the kitchen and heard the outside door open and thought it was the mail man putting mail in to the mail slot.  He said that when he looked there was no mail in the slot and that he didn’t see anyone.

Both clients reported that on one occasion that all of the cups in a kitchen cupboard were placed on one side of the cupboard as if someone took their arm and slid them over.

The female client reported that the night she was visiting our web site that a very strong feeling of oppressiveness came over her and that when she walked upstairs she thought she saw a form in the hallway.

THE INVESTIGATION:

The investigation was held on 1-30-09 and all members of ORPIT was present.  The clients opted to leave the residence during the investigation to insure that they would not interfere investigation.

The following equipment was utilized during the investigation.

DVR infrared 4 cameras.

Digital voice recorders.

Mini DV camcorders.

EMF Detectors.

K2 Meter.

I.R. Thermometers.

Digital Camera’s

I.R. Digital Camera

With the DVR system 13 hours of video was captured.

The mini DV’s recorded 8 hours of video and audio.

8.5 hours of audio was recorded on the voice recorders.

326 photos were taken between the standard camera’s and the I.R. camera.

After review of all of the captured evidence there was nothing recorded or captured that would suggest any type of paranormal activity.

The only personal experience that occurred happened in the third floor, during an EVP session.  Investigators were asking a series of questions when two investigators observed two lights appear on the floor in front of them then disappear.

Investigators searched for the source of these two lights but were unable to trace them back to anything and the lights did not appear during the rest of the investigation.

During the investigation there were no recorded temperature fluctuations, no interactions with the K2 meter and no EMF fluctuations that could not be traced to a source.

Investigation of the residence did reveal the following.

Throughout the entire residence there was a very high EMF with the exception of the basement area.  On the first floor the average EMF was at a 1.5mg with spikes in excess of a 2.7mg in some areas.

On the second and third floors our team found the same type of EMF readings that would spike in upwards to 35mg when around certain appliances and as high as 17mg in certain areas of the walls and electrical outlets.    

Investigators spent a lot of time in the adolescent daughters room where most of the activity was said to be happening and found the following.

On a nightstand at the head of the bed there was a boom box style radio that emitted a constant EMF of 37mg.  This boom box was within approx two feet from where the child’s head would be during sleep and also while lounging in the room.

We also were able to track an extremely high  EMF that was coming from the foot of the bed where a TV, DVD player and alarm clock was located.  This combo of appliances spiked EMF meters to 150mg at the peak and maintained a normal reading of 73.5mg.

In the middle of this room the EMF meters stayed at a constant 2.5mg.  This reading was the same for the daughters bed.

During the time that investigators stayed in the room some were overcome with feelings of nausea, pressure in the ears and some other slight discomforting feelings associated with EMF Hypersensitivity that was relived upon exiting the room.

At the end of the investigation we briefly spoke with the client about our findings and expressed our concern with the extreme EMF that was located in her daughters room that was being effected.

We suggested that she be removed from that room and placed in another room in the residence that we had checked and found the EMF levels to be at a 1mg or lower.

OUR OPINION:

It is the opinion of ORPIT that there is no paranormal activity occurring at the residence.  It is our feeling that the adolescent child is suffering from a form of EMF Hypersensitivity that is showing itself in the most common symptoms within the child.  We also feel that the child’s extreme symptoms are the cause of the prolonged exposure (2+ years) of this high EMF along with the child’s underlying mental status.

We have expressed our concerns to the clients and have advised them to keep their child in therapy that she is currently receiving to ensure the proper mental health treatment that she needs.  We advised the client that we have only a theory and advised them to attempt to correct the EMF issues.

UPDATE:

During the reveal we spoke to the clients and they advised that they immediately acted on our recommendation to remove the child from her current room with the high concentration of EMF in to the other room that was suggested.  They stated that their child reported to them that she slept peacefully and throughout the entire night for the first time in a long time while at the house.

We will attempt to update this case on the progress.
