Case Summary: The Abandoned Leonard School House, now converted to part of the Haunted Acres horror tour, was an interesting case. Not only were the claims of activity spooky, but we were working a full-fledged spook house that was still set up from Halloween. Claims ranged from hearing voices and unexplained noises to seeing apparitions. Some of the information obtained during the interviews was later confirmed through old newspaper archives. We started our investigation, working the main areas with claims of activity. We did several EVP sessions throughout the building, including a large session with the owner. There did seem to be some strange occurrences during the investigation, but the real evidence came to light when we reviewed the footage. Several unexplainable EVP's showed up during the review. This case remains open due to the current lack of evidence to make a determination, and more investigation will be conducted to determine if this location truly holds paranormal activity.

Case Summary: This has by far been our most interesting case to date. Many personal experiences such as the sound of someone running up the back stairs when the entire team was sitting around the living room. Cabinet doors opened in kitchen opened as claimed although this piece of footage was contaminated earlier in the night so we had to throw it out because that kitchen wasn't on camera. This is also the case that we got the 2 good EVP's out of. We will be revisiting this location very soon.
