Prolog: In February 2007 Long Island Paranormal
Investigators was invited to investigate this residence in the Bellport, NY
on Long Island by the residence of the home. LIPI members performed a
lights out investigation using digital
video recorders,
digital and
analog audio recorders,
IR and
thermal thermometers,
IR vision
systems, EMF and other electronic sensors.
Historical Background: The home's residence state
they have seen faces in the mirrors of the main bedroom. The mirrors have
been cleaned repeatedly but the faces return. The also state objects have
moved, mainly in the upstairs part of the house; Object have been seen
apparently tossed down the upstairs steps when no one was upstairs; The
report very uneasy feelings when sitting in the upstairs den area; The
residence state something shakes the bathroom door handle and sometimes they
find the bedroom closet doors open. Some electronic devices in the living
room have repeatedly malfunctioned for no apparent reason.

LIPI empathic specialist Peter Ferarro takes EMF
readings in the den area where the residence say the feel uneasy.

Cardinuto take EMF and thermal readings in the den area.
The Investigation Team: Seven
members of Long Island Paranormal Investigators
took part in this investigation. This investigation was lead by LIPI lead
investigators Michael Cardinuto, Rob Levine, and Moshin Marghoob. Additional team members were investigators
Jaiem Fleischmann,
Peter Ferraro, Cheryl Wittmann, and Justin DiGangi.
The Equipment Setup: Long Island Paranormal
Investigators performed for a lights out
investigation at the residence. Two DVR cameras where setup in the main
bedroom upstairs where the residence say they have seen faces in the mirrors
and doors/draws seem to open on their own.

Lead investigator Mo coordinates the setup of the DVR
cameras.

2 DVR cameras in the main bedroom
where the residence say they have seen faces in the mirrors.
A third DVR camera was setup looking up the main stair case in the house.

where object appear
to have been tossed down with no one there.
A fourth DVR camera was placed in the
upstairs hallway facing down the hallway towards the den area. Finally, we
placed a digital video camera in the living room facing the kitchen area.

We placed our
digital thermometers in the living
room and in the den area and suspended the probes to
constantly monitor the room temperature, checking for unusual changes.
Finally, we placed a digital audio recorder
on constant record in the den area next to the digital thermometer to try to
pickup any EVPs.
Throughout the night's investigation we used our
IR Thermometers to check for
cold spots in the various rooms. The
wireless motion sensor was not used on this investigation due to the small
size of the home.
Finally, the main hall way area was setup as the LIPI
command center for this investigation. This would be our location to monitor
the DVR cameras, coordinate investigation teams throughout the night, and
centralize our investigation equipment.

The Investigation: Long Island Paranormal Investigators performed
a 3 and a half hour investigation of this residence. Our group was divided into investigation teams
that took turns investigating the upstairs locations. Teams remained in contact via
Motorola-class walkie-talkie radios.

readings with the Cell Sensor in the
main bedroom.

LIPI investigators swept all the rooms for anomalous EMF readings. Investigators also swept all locations continuously with the IR thermometers
looking for cold spots (or hot spots) and recording the time and
temperatures of the living room and den area from the mounted digital
thermometers. Throughout the investigation several LIPI investigators took
numerous photographs with digital
cameras.

Lead investigator Rob Levine and Investigator Cheryl
Wittmann take notes
on EMF and temperature readings in the den area.

Lead investigator Mike Cardinuto checks
the video camera in the living room.
Finally, after over 3.5 hours of investigation it was
decided to conclude the investigation.
Findings: This investigation revealed the following evidence and
experiences:
|
Observations and
Personal Experiences
on Site |
-
On several occasions during the night temperature variations were
detected in the main bedroom. The room however is a corner room which are
typically colder than inside rooms. The night was also a very cold and
windy night. And the room has a ceiling trap door to the attic crawl
space. Digital audio, photography and EMF sensors did not detect any
paranormal activity.
-
EMF readings in the house didn't change much from the baseline
readings. Most rooms were from zero to under 1.0 with a notable exception of
a "hot spot" in the wall of the upper hallway near the den area. The
reading was very steady, probably the result of wires in the wall.
-
One item of interest: During an EVP session in the bathroom with Lead
Investigators Mike Cardinuto and Moshin Marghoob when Mo was trying to
provoke a response the EMF
Electrosensor jumped significantly. The jump appeared to be in
response to the provocation. It only happened once however.
-
Digital photography and DVR video showed only dust orbs. 35mm photography was not used
in this investigation.
-
EVP recording on our digital audio
recorders were inconclusive. Due to the small size of the house sound
traveled easily and talk in other rooms of the house contaminated many of
the recordings.
-
On several occasions we invited the home residence to take part in the
investigation, specifically to be present during EVP sessions, hoping this
would draw out any entities in the
area. The residence said they felt uneasy during the sessions, however no
EVPs were recorded.
|
Conclusion: While the jump on the
EMF
Electrosensor during the EVP provocation attempt is curious this alone can not be held as conclusive proof of
paranormal activity. The cold of the evening and draftiness of the
residence make temperature readings unreliable. LIPI is unable to confirm or debunk the
existence of paranormal activity at this location. We will remain in close
contact with the home owner and may schedule an additional investigation of
the house if further activity is reported.
