EVP's & More
Calico Ghost Town EVP
This EVP is from the Calico Cemetery. The digital recorder was placed on top of the tombstone marked as "Dora (Brown) Townsend" There was nobody nearby and none of us has this name. You'll hear a strange sound in the recording then what sounds to us like "SHARON". Then myself picking up the recorder to go to another site.
This is an example of over editing your digital voice recordings. This is a fake EVP, just a slip of the finger while recording. As you can hear, kind of sounds like "get out". When you over clean your recordings typical scuffs and vibrations could be misinterpreted as words and voices, so be very careful!!!
This was captured in December of 2007 during night 1 of the Darkness Radio/ Taps Event on a mini DV camcorder (which some say is rare to get this good on camcorder). Nobody around except my wife and myself. After using our K2 EMF meter and asking questions regarding the lights on the meter. I say thank you then my wife, next a third very faint "Thank you" then "We have lights" (not us and not heard at the time).
These are some links to EVP's from a Para Friend on Twitter Joeandrasi93
"When we first moved in back in 1999, had some objects moved around including furniture. Captured in my home during a burst of paranoramal activity lasting about 5 months."
This will help clean up your EVPs and works with Mac and PC. If you over clean, your recordings will sound digital / mechanical and create sounds that your mind will interpret as words and human-like sounds. Similar to the EVP gone wrong sample at the top.
If you have some evidence you would like posted then send it in. Also keep your eyes open for more from the Dementid minds at Parachasers.
JUST IN!
This was submitted by a Yucaipa CA resident and was one of many photos taken during the firefighters efforts to battle the '09 Yucaipa fires, however this was the only one with the unique face falling amongst the fire retardant. Parachasers reviewed this photo for many hours and adjusted the color saturation and contrast lightly, otherwise untouched. I know it almost looks too good to be true. Is it something paranormal or is it just a form of mind matrixing as when we see shapes in clouds. You be the judge!
New Mexico is home to numerous ghost stories, some famous and some personal. The Double Eagle Restaurant in Mesilla New Mexico has a long history. It's housed by a 150 year old building that was the site of the treaty signing that ended the Mexican-American war in 1848. It's also where Billy the Kid was incarcerated, and where secret lovers Armando and Inez lived, died, and reportedly haunt to this day.
The first set of paranormal photos are from the Double Eagle Restaurant. Stories were told to Parachasers of dishes being stacked and moved as well as candy being placed about six inches apart around the entire gift store located in the same building, all while nobody was there!
This second set of photos are from a private residence where there are reports of seeing and smelling deceased grand parents, also in Mesilla. We included the zoomed and circled ghost face on top of the original as well as a shot from the other side of the home. This face was not seen at the time of the photo!
The third set is from a repoted haunted abandoned home of which we could gain no legal access so we stopped at the front door, however when trying to take a photo of the inside through the broken glass a growl / moan was heard almost as if saying "WHO".
This is a picture of Alcatraz as well as a video of a light anomaly captured in the cell blocks.

The woman in the picture is a clairvoyant as well as myself she had been staying with me here in Christchurch New Zealand for 6 days, I had arranged a number of readings for her to do prior to the birthday party of my sister, where the spirit is located is to the left of her right shoulder, its behind two score boards at the local rugby club and that is a wall behind her there is no cut out of any sort there or person standing there as we had a chair set up there with flowers and curtain's which you can see above the woman from the original photo, Kathy who is in the photo tells me this is one of her guides who has been with her for many years. nobody at the party has any idea who this is or had seen anybody at the party that even looks likes this.
This photo was taken at the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose CA. This is one of the many architectural oddities commissioned by Sarah Winchester, widow of William Winchester maker of the Winchester Rifle. She had tried to please the ghosts of people killed by Winchester rifles by having doors that lead to solid walls and windows in floors and stairs that lead to ceilings as pictured below built for the spirits. This type of construction was non-stop and lasted for over 35 years.
The first photo is of the hanging area behind the Whaley House, it was being excavated when we were there as they had found some artifacts buried in the ground. The second photo is from inside the haunted Whaley House. As you can see this is our reflection and not spirits or shadow people. This will happen in most parts of the house as there is plexi-glass blocking you from entering most of the rooms. Unfortunately the Whaley House does not allow video and audio recording but do allow photography.
When we had been there before Chaser had an experience when a velvet rope that blocked one of the main rooms all of a sudden swung towards him in a push like manner and then back away until it came to its resting position. Chaser had been about three feet from the rope at the time. This happened when nobody was near the rope and no breeze was blowing through the area.
This is the famous spiral stairway at the Mission Inn in Riverside CA. Numerous stories have been told of ghosts haunting in specific rooms at the INN. On some rare occasions they open the Mission Inn catacombs to paid ghost tours. In the mid 1990's a male teen fell to his death from the top of this spiral courtyard. Many rumors were told of his death including a lovers spat which lead to him being pushed over the edge while sitting on the railing.
This is typical orb/dust video footage!
Here is a typical orb/dust photo taken at the Queen Mary Pool!
With orbs/dust you will notice that some may appear to be somewhat transparent while others may look like they are their own light source. Some claim to see faces in orbs in which most cases turn out to be our minds creating a familiar image like shapes in clouds (matrixing). When conditions are right you may find an orb/dust that just sits in the right place on a shape in the background to create what looks to us to be a head on a body. Then there is the orb/bug which in video may look like some sort of spirit energy flying through a scene. Most camcorders will not be able to focus on the bug as it is too close to the lens or too fast to be captured for the frame rate of the camcorder especially if the infrared light is shining on it. Keep in mind when taking photos and video these possible factors: Dust, Bugs, Rain, Do Not Smoke, Fog, Breath on a cold night, Fingerprints on lens, Photos from behind glass, and water spots on the lens. I once saw a photo that looked semi-paranormal but was fortunate to see the camera. On the lens of the camera was an extremely small dried water spot which correlated with the photo based on the angle of the sun so it only showed up in certain photos. This person as well as others were convinced it was paranormal regardless of the water spot evidence. These are some of the battles you will face trying to prove or disprove Paranormal Evidence. Some will see the reasoning and others may not! Not to say there are not real orbs.
