OSR Investigation notes Ohio State Reformatory aka: Mansfield Reformatory
JUNE 24, 2006
L.T member, Lori, joined Vanessa and Kevin from RIP-OHIO on an overnight investigation of OSR. The evening began with some excitement as Vanessa won an OSR T-shirt. WTG V!
Equipment used included; 3 digital cameras, 1- 28mm APS (advanced photo systems)camera, 2 digital video cameras with IR (infrared) lighting, 2 EMF detectors & 2 thermometers.
Orbs were very plentiful on photographs. Many of these photos have been discarded due to the conditions of the site, such as pealing paint, dust, bugs, etc., (A few of the "better" photos will be posted on "our reels/reeling" page, for those who like orbs).
Video recordings rendered nothing of interest. A couple of "cool spots" were recorded by thermometer, one in the long shower room and another within a small room in the basement area.
While in the long shower room, Vanessa picked up the feeling of which a "severe beating had taken place at the far end of the room". Later another investigator stated, history does carry a story of an inmate who was beaten and stabbed at the far end of the room. Injuries sustained from this attack resulted in the death of the inmate.
We spent some lengthy time in the "Jesus room". Many orbs were captured in this room. There are two smaller rooms, one on each side of main doorway into room. Vanessa experienced the feeling of having a gritty substance thrown into her face while entering the room, to the left, on one occasion. Just as we were considering moving on to a different location, we heard strange sounds coming from the room to the right. We ventured into the room to debunk the sound which we all had heard, and soon after Lori began to feel a strong sense of nausea as well as anger. She had to leave the room. In the meanwhile, Vanessa also experienced; a strong sense of a very angry soul, a serious case of chills and hair standing up throughout her body, accompanIed with a heaviness in her chest. She too had to remove herself from the room. Kevin, while in the main room- taking EMF readings, had felt someone or something pat him fairly hard on the top of his head. Lori had just taken a photo, before Kevin had stated his experience, and a bright orb was caught in photo right above Kevin's head!! Kevin did have a few EMF spikes register while taking his readings.
I would recommend a visit to this site for anyone who has not had the opportunity to do so as of yet. L.T., will plan to visit as a group in 2007 so that our members can also enjoy the experience at least once.
