Tri-City Paranormal Investigators

First Investigation



This EVP is confirmed to be a true EVP.  This sounds like someone yelling "sombody take my dog."  It has a southern draw to the voice.  All investigators are confirmed to be elsewhere and no other devices recorded this sound even though some were only a few feet from this recorder.  Think this EVP is saying something else or are you interested in how we could prove this is paranormal?  Contact us and well tell you more.




This EVP was recorded on two recorders at the same volume even though the recorders were 30 feet apart.  The camcorder that was only 2 feet from one of the recorders did not pick this up however the camcorder was by the only entrance to one of the rooms proving that there was no one near one recorder during the capture of this EVP.  It sound like someone saying "Here In" or "Here Is".  


 



This EVP was captured on two different recorders also, but not the same two noted above in the "Here In" EVP.  The DVR system did confirm that at the time of the recording no investigators were moving their mouths and the closest female was downstairs in a room with the door shut.  It was captured on both recorders 35 feet apart at the same volume but not on a computer or camcorder that were close by.  This sounds like a woman humming.
 



Violet Bank Second Investigation


The following EVP'S were caught on the second investigation at violet bank.  There are two not listed.  One is while trying to provoke, and the second appears to be a child saying "where is my locket" that wouldn't go to mp3 format without being distorted so it is not listed.  If you are over 18 and would like these to review please use the contact us form and we will send them to you in WAV format.  Thanks!



This clip sounds like a woman saying "mmm, hmmm"  at 2 seconds like she is agreeing with someting we are saying.  We had just turned on the recorder and there were only males in the building at the time.  The building also had a rope barrier around it and there were people outside watching the building the whole night so there could not be anyone sneaking up on the building and making noises that could be mistaken as an evp. 





The next clip sounds like a woman saying hi at 3 seconds.  No one was speaking at the time and no one commented on it. 

 



Violet Bank 10-23-2009-In the news.


 On this investigation we had Chai Gallahun from the news papers with us.  Chai was there when this evidence was captured which helped to authenticate the evidence to him.  Violet Bank always seems to have EVP activity that cannot be explained.  This is the fourth investigation we have done here and we have deemed the place to be haunted with residual type activity.  Violet Bank is the only location we have deemed to be haunted thus far.  This is because of multiple scientifically document investigations. 

This was an interesting investigation.  We usually do not have so much "activity" on an investigation at Violet Bank; however, this night was very interesting.  We had a ton of personal experiences including one of our DVR cameras moving, hearing a woman speak that was not there, and seeing a shadow move after being seen by an investigator.  While these are just personal experiences (and we cannot count them as evidence) we did capture some of these sounds on recorders both as EVP's (Electronic Voice Phenomena) and disembodied voices.  Below is the evidence we did capture.


Below is an EVP that was captured in the Shore Room.  You hear the investigator talking in the distance and then you hear a voice next to the microphone say "It's not your house".  This is at about 4 seconds.  What do you think?







The next EVP was captured in the Cold Room and no one was in the building at the time.  It sounds like someone saying "run through".  Tell us what you think.  This is at about 4 seconds.







The below recording is a possible disembodied voice.  An EVP is a sound that is captured on a recorder that is paranormal (meaning not normal) and the investigators did not hear the sound at the time it was recorded.  A Voice Phenomena (or disembodied voice) is a sound or voice, believed to be paranormal, that was heard by the investigators and captured on electronic recorder.  The below VP was heard by two investigators.  It sounds like a woman saying "not me" or "help me". and then a "No".  When one investigator ran down stairs to see where the voice was coming from a shadow was seen darting in to the next room (this cannot be used as evidence because the shadow was not captured, it's just an experience).  This recording was captured downstairs in the cold room and all of the investigators were upstairs at the time.  Let us know what you think.  This is at about 1 or 2 seconds.
