Private Residence - Lisbon, Ohio
Investigation Notes

5:00 pm - 2:45 am   
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Introduction:  
We were invited to investigate this private residence along with another Ohio Paranormal investigation group, due to
possible demonic activity.   Property includes home, barn and horse pastures on 22 acres of land.  Homeowner states the
pastures are located on Civil War battlefield.  Homeowner searched out an investigative group due to family member
complaints of a very strong sense of someone watching them when no one is visible,  dark moving shadows seen in and
outside of the house, horses being disturbed during the early morning hours in the barn,  individuals being awoken during
the early morning hours by the feel of someone touching them or standing over them, strange smells within the home, etc..

Equipment used by LT members:     2  Digital Cameras
                                                                   2  IR Thermometers
                                                                   4  Digital voice recorders
                                                                   1  K-ll  meter
                                                                   2  EMF detectors
                                                                   1  Compass
                                                                   2  Video Cameras with IR external lighting  

Notes:

Rick, Lori and Patti C attended this investigation.  Members were given a tour of the house and property, at which time
they gathered their base readings for temperature and electro-magnetic fields.  During the tour of the barn, homeowner
decided it was a good time to bring the horses and one donkey in for dinner.  In doing such, there was one particular
horse who seemed to be out of control once near Rick.  Rick gained control over the horse and said a prayer over the
horse to release any possible evilness about or within,  and to our surprise the horse instantly calmed down and laid his
head on Rick's shoulder.  

After chatting with the other group and their members, LT members decided to begin investigation of the upstairs
attic/bedroom area.  Once again temperature and EMF readings were taken, and it was noted that each time the EMF
detector was set down it would spike off the scale- no matter where it was set!  Members have never experienced this
before.  At one point, Lori reported a strong sense of someone standing behind her while she sat on the bed. She began
taking pictures behind her and captured the following:
 
   


































Notice how the first photograph is very foggy and how it seems to disperse within the next few photos taken immediately
thereafter in secession.  Members also reported K-ll meter spikes when asking for communication through the k-ll  by
making it spike if a statement was correct.  Highest spikes were noted when asking if they were female, heart problems and
when asked when born and spiked heavily on 1830.  Please note, this is not conclusive proof of a spirit but members do
find this a point of interest.

After 90 minutes of investigation in the attic/bedroom area of the home, they moved down to the basement where K-ll and
EMF detectors spiked off the scales continuously.   Investigation of the home wiring was carried out and noted to be the
source of the high EMF readings and was recommended to the homeowner to have an electrician come out to evaluate
the current wiring situation.  This very well could be the answer for some of the family's complaints and concerns.

Members also spent some time in the barn investigating and did note a few unexplained EMF and K-ll spikes, along with
sounds of possible mice or rodents moving around in the straw and other debris in the barn.   Rodents moving around in
the morning hours could very well spook the horses and donkey, debunked?  Below are a few photographs from the barn
that we find of interest:


































After everyone was finished with investigations, LT members were informed by the homeowner that she was interested in
having her home blessed and cleansed before our departure. Members agreed to carry out this request and in doing so,
captured an EVP while cleansing the basement.  (
click hear to listen ).  Cleansing of the barn turned out to be a bit of a
learning experience for members.  Rick began by blessings and "closing" all the doors and window areas, leaving only one
door open which lead into the garage area.  Then he returned to the far end of barn and began moving to the front while
praying, blessing, etc..  The only animals in the barn at this time were one horse (photo above) and the donkey (Lori's
buddy, lol).  The horse was stalled on the  left side about three stalls down from the donkey on the right side of barn.   As
Rick came up to the horse and passed, both the horse and donkey began bellowing out and carrying on very loud as
though they were scared, freaked out and just wanted out of their stalls and barn.  Rick continued on with the cleansing
and when he came up to the donkey, he said a different prayer and both animals calmed down almost immediately.  Rick
then carried on cleansing the remaining area of the barn.  Cleansing of the entire property was carried.

Upon follow up conversation with the homeowner, she states that things have quieted down and the family feels more at
peace. They also invited us to come back out to do some horseback riding and possible investigation of the pasture area
of the property due to reported sightings of "men" walking about.  We appreciate the invitation and are very happy that we
were able to help this family out.  That is what we are here for!
