| The house we investigated in Quitman was the home of the city’s most infamous resident. We agreed not to use the real names of the family or the neighbor in this story. We will refer to main party as G., the first initial of his given name, in our narrative.
The team arrived at the site at 7 p.m. and was met by a neighbor, Mrs. X., a sensitive. Long before they became neighbors, G’s mother was in the hospital recovering from an injury. She was befriended by Mrs. X. During the time G’s mother was in the hospital, Mrs. X. had to request that G. leave the hospital premises. G. would not leave so Mrs. X. called the police and had him removed. Years after the sordid activity at G’s home ended, Mrs. X. moved into her present home across the street. When Mrs. X. moved into her new home, G's mother was deceased and G. was incarcerated. Purportedly, G. showed signs of abusive behavior and animal cruelty about age five. G. was seen from time to time by neighbors hanging small animals up on the porch. G. continued this behavior until adulthood, when his penchant for abuse extended to his parents. G. never worked at a job outside his home; however, he was reported to have an IQ of around 130 and was the author of a couple of books. G. also engaged in growing marijuana and distributing drugs. Although reportedly not a user himself, he took pleasure in watching others use drugs. In the early 1980s, G's drug dealings subsequently led to a police raid of his home which revealed marijuana as well as the abused carcasses of about twenty animals. The advanced state of decomposition of the carcasses was so bad that the flooring had to be replaced in the two rooms where they were found. G. was convicted and incarcerated after the raid. As if drug trafficking and animal abuse were not sordid enough, it was reported that G. was either responsible for or involved in the death of his father by pushing him down the stairs. It was related that the father and mother had been locked in a room by G. and that he regularly mistreated them either by abuse or neglect. Somehow, the father was able to leave the room and either a tug-of-war to restrain him or a push from G. caused the father to fall down the stairs resulting in his death. G. was never charged in the death of his father. Ironically, G. met his death by a drug overdose. There were a lot of discrepancies regarding the death. During our investigation, communication with G’s spirit indicated that he was murdered by two men and because he was so disliked by the community an autopsy was never performed. We tried to acquire the records with out success; however, information related by a former member of the police department verified the spirit communication. An autopsy was not performed and there were conflicting reports as to cause of death. One report related natural causes while another related drug overdose as the cause of death. Another spirit we encountered during our investigation was that of the son of the original architect of the home. Named J., he has been seen by both Mrs. X. and by a member of the investigative team. Mrs. X. has seen the spirits of G., J., and G’s mother frequently. G’s mother has been seen walking inside the house, on the front porch, and in an upstairs window. She appears as a younger woman though she was at an advanced age when she passed. The spirit of G. has been seen in various areas inside the house. G. appears as a child of about fourteen years of age even though he was about fifty at the time of his death. The spirit of J. appears a WWI soldier having wavy hair, an officerÂ’s cap and a handlebar mustache. In addition to the spirit sightings, there have been incidents involving the tossing of coins; specifically, pennies and dimes. The last owner reported one incident in which multiple coins were thrown at those present. Mrs. X’s home is reported to be haunted, too. It turns out that the two families that originally owned the houses were related. J’s father was a doctor who gave the land across the street to his sister. J’s brother-in-law, a Chemist, or Pharmacist, built the house across the street. The Doctor’s house and G’s house, were built in 1856 and the sister's, Mrs.’X's house, was built in 1890. Photos taken with digital cameras captured a few orbs in motion during the spirit communication with G. and over the duration of the investigation. An interesting digital photo showed an orb at the top of the stairs. Camcorder footage showed orbs that responded to the investigators. In an upstairs bedroom, a team member had the sensation that a large man was standing behind her. One of the Investigators said he communicated psychically that he wanted to use her body to communicate with the investigators in the room. She mentally told him that he could speak to her but not through her. As if to show his displeasure, video footage caught an orb forming behind her head and going through her, pushing her head forward. Another team member was in a room alone and was “rushed” by energy that he felt was G. Gauss meter and thermal readings showed spikes and temperature changes throughout the investigation. The team agreed that the house was one of the most haunted locations we have visited. Note: With the acquisition of a new computer, sound cards and software the tapes from these investigations have been resampled recently. EVPs validating some of the activity will be posted soon. |
