October 15th Ghost Review







Set-up by PIHA was intensive as they ran monitoring equipment from the basement to the upstairs -- the museum was wired! Sarah Frederick patiently waits for recording equipment to be set up. Former Log House Museum resident (1959-early 1970's) Marcy Johnsen tells tales of the building to investigators and staff.

Paranormal Investigations of Historic America




We just completed a survey from PIHA (Paranormal Investigations of Historic America) last night. My questions were 1) why are these ghost hunting ventures always done at night, and 2) why do the lights need to be off?

And, for the public record, during the day I don't believe in ghosts, but at night in the dark it is a different story.
A big thank you to Vaughn Hubbard of PIHA, Electronic Voice Phenomena Specialist Dave and Sandy and Russ Wells -- radiohosts of Para Explorers and Dark moon rising talk shows.
