Investigators Notes
​
Becky Ray:This investigation was part of a paranormal investigation offered through the Atchison Chamber of Commerce.
While not the most active I have seen this location, we had several first hand accounts of strange things happening to participants as we moved through the house.
A few people mentioned feeling touched in the basement, and one participant reported feeling something near her hair as she sat in a chair. EMF meters went off around her body when she felt touched, but not at other times.
Upstairs in the nursery we had a few people experience feelings of discomfort, and we had a positive response via several devices when we would address "Sallie."
A few EVPs were recorded during this evening and have been posted on the AUDIO page. I look forward to any photos, etc other participants may have captured!

While in the nursery the question was asked, "Sallie, did you have a dog?" There is an answer, and then "Did you have a cute little puppy?" was asked with another response. This may have been another participant and not paranormal.

As Becky was explaining that we need to remember to use terms from a time period the spirits would be familiar with as they may not know what a "green light" is, a breathy voice says something.
Submitted by Tina
A male asked what the "vibe" of the house was and if it was demonic or anything. Becky reassured him that there was nothing like that.

PHOTOS
This photo was taken by one of the participants of the investigation outside looking at the nursery window prior to entering the home. This is the same window where many people have reported seeing a child looking out, however the as of yet unexplained shape in this photo appears to be an adult.
