Investigators Notes
​
Becky Ray:This was the final investigation for the season through the Atchison Chamber of Commerce. Many thanks to them for the opportunity to lead these investigations!
The house seemed less active than usual during this evening. It may have been due partially to the deadly grain elevator explosion in Atchison at the beginning of the night. We didn't know what had happened at the time, but we all heard the boom and felt the house shake.
During the investigation I set up the laser grid in the living room. At one point it looked as if someone else with a green laser was shining a dot on the ceiling. We all saw it move irrationally and independently from the grid. I'm not sure what may have caused this. ALTHOUGH, at the end of the night it was discovered that someone in the group had purposely re-arranged letters in the nursery and moved a stuffed animal to give the impression that something paranormal had happened. It was obviously a hoax, although no one owned up to it, so I'm curious as to if maybe someone was also playing a trick on us with their own laser pointer.
One thing that happened with each group as we moved through the house was anyone that sat in one area of the dining room experienced unexplained itching and/or extreme cold. I checked the area and the actual temperature around those chairs was the same as the rest of the room, however everyone that sat there had this experience.
I hope I am able to continue doing more investigations at this location, as each time I go it seems something different takes place.
