Ghost Hunter
Home is Where the Heart is

In Ghost Hunter’s recent episode Home is Where the Heart is, the ghost hunter team heads to Beardslee Castle in Little Falls, NY. Some interesting facts about this castle is that the owner had hanged himself in the house. Along with the hanging other individuals have died in the house. The team investigates to see if they can debunk any of the reported occurrences. The Ghost Hunter team wires the castle/restaurant with video surveillance equipment. By doing this they can go back and view the tapes to see if they had caught anything on camera that they couldn’t see while doing the investigation. Once the house has been wired they turn off all the lights and start to try to make contact with any ghosts that may be present in the building. The owner of the restaurant claimed that a kitchen door opened and closed by itself and that several employees had witnessed this. The team debunked that by proving that opening another door in the kitchen caused such a pressure in the room that they swinging door would move back and forth. The team also used an Emf device which stands for electromagnetic field. Emf devices make it possible to locate and track energy sources. It detects fluctuations and spikes in electromagnetic fields. The team does pick up some high emf readings in the basement. This lets the team know that there are high levels of energy readings in the basement. The team also used a voice recorder during their investigation. During the viewing of all their evidence the team noticed that a deep voice was picked up on the tape recorder. Any possibilities that this could be a team member were thrown out because everything was videotaped.

During the second half of the show the team travelled to Georgia to the Olson house. The Olson house was supposedly haunted by a former owner named “Nonie”. The team again set video surveillance in the house to record every room that was suspected to have high activity. The

    “That summer the strangest things began to happen in the rear of the house,” John said. “Doors and windows began to slam. I’d go back there because I thought someone had come in.” Upon inspection though, he would discover the screen door and windows were securely latched from the inside. “There was no way anyone could go out and relatch the door or windows,” John said. One of the more unnerving occurrences even stood his friends’ hair on end. When his friends hung out in the kitchen, which is located in the rear of the house, their cigarettes would mysteriously snuff out. This happened on numerous occasions, but never in the front portion of the house. “I was scared to death of that bedroom, “said john of the room from which most of the spooky happenings seem to take place. That room, which had a window to the kitchen, happened to be his late grandfather’s bedroom and the room in which he died of natural causes 16 years…

    “It was very cold so we had hung tarps on the doorways to this room on the first floor where we decided set up our base camp. We had a portable heater running but it was still extremely cold. I was leaning up against the doorway next to one of the tarps. We had all of our gear boxes and bags sitting just outside the room. I couldn’t get comfortable so I wasn’t getting any sleep. I began to hear shuffling outside the doorway and what sounded like someone rustling through our bags. Clint (Griffith), Adam, and Rick were asleep so I decided to take a peak because I thought it was Stephanie or the apprentice who elected to sleep in the truck,” said Todd. When he checked, there was no one there. He continued to try and get some sleep, but by this time the sun was already starting to come up and he knew it was a lost cause. “I began hearing the rustling outside the doorway again so this time I grabbed my DVR camera and went out. Again there was no one there. I traveled down the hallway where I was hearing noises and circled through a room to the opposite doorway to our base camp. This particular doorway had two tarps attached to it; one taped to either side of the door jam and was not used as an egress. Everything seemed to be in order and I found no one roaming about so I concluded it was just some curious spirits wondering what our bags contained,” said Todd. He returned to the other doorway and entered the base camp where he continued to try to get some rest. “Not three minutes after I got settled back down, a loud noise came from the tarp hanging on the doorway right next to me. The tarp was a heavy green poly material that contained a ridged pattern. The sound appeared to be a fingernail starting at the top of the tarp and running all the way down to the bottom, creating an almost zipper like sound. It was so loud it woke Adam…

    Due to this and all of the theories and stories above I do believe that something is haunting the Mckenzie residence. I do not know which I would agree with more. All three theories written here have good points and I understand why some think that their theory is superior compared to the others. I do prefer one theory over the others once I consider the circumstances. The third theory has more room for the train of thought to flow, which is why it is the one I take liking to. This allows me and the others who believe this to think about more possibilities of what this is and why it is happening.…

    The couple that kidnapped her, that she believed to be her parents, lived in the house as well. He was able to get in through the back door, and then he went about and started to plant some clues to warn the couple that he was there. When Lucille and Dallas arrived home for their lunch break they noticed some strangeness going on; for one thing, it was pouring outside, and somehow all the windows in the house were open causing water to seep through the frail screens. Also, pictures of their daughter were vandalized with a red marker expressing the word “mine” on them.

    The Ghost in the Darkness

    • 313 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The Ghost and the Darkness is a great movie that incorporates a historic struggle with conflict between man vs. nature, and man vs. man. Col. John Patterson is presented with the task of building a bridge to expand the British railroad in Africa. He is forced into leaving his pregnant wife behind while he travels to Tsavo, Africa where he must live and work. The colonel is then faced with a struggle between man and nature where he must protect the people from lions that are invading the camp. The reoccurring theme of man vs. nature dominates the story line. A white man is brought to Africa where he must build a bridge over a river, and is then expected to keep people safe from lions in the night. The colonel kills a lion in the middle of the night, and the camp praises him for making the night safer, but little do the people know there are more lions. The lion attacks scare the people and make them weary of putting their trust in a white man. The lions end up killing thirty or so people before an expert killer, Charles Remington, is brought to aid. Charles tells the colonel, “Everybody has a plan until they’ve been hit… and you’ve been hit.” The line refers to the lions acting more like beasts then lions at all. Lions normally do not attack humans, or hunt them as prey, so why were they doing this? Remington and Patterson hunt and kill a lion, but there is still another one. After a night of celebration, Remington disappears only to be found slain by a lion. This enrages Patterson, so he hunts the lion down and kills it. This struggle of man vs. nature is prevalent in the plot of the story, and makes for a great…
