Historical Case
AUDIO
As with most audio clips, spirit EVPs are often barely more than a whisper and are best heard while using headphone/earbuds (noise cancelling are the best to use). We selected the audio clips below so that those who do not have headphones/earbuds should still be able to at least hear that there is "something" there, although it may not be as clear as it would be with headphones/earbuds.
Over several investigations at this location, we believe we have connected with spirits of at least two different children and that of who we believe to be one of the teachers at this school, Miss Carrie Osgood.
Storrowton Schoolhouse Whistle
00:00 / 00:15
One of the investigators is explaining to spirit how a piece of equipment works. At 0:03 a whistle is heard. The whistle was heard during the investigation, by one person, but not by the remainder of those present. The whistle is heard here, but cannot be explained.
Storrowton Schoolhouse - give them a nud
00:00 / 00:07
One of the investigators is telling spirit if they possibly nudge a piece of equipment, it may go off. At 0:05 there is a very low and breathy "no" heard.
***This one is difficult to hear without the use of earphones/ear buds
Video
This video shows the group sitting at desks throughout the schoolhouse. In the process of asking questions, the mini-Maglite turns on to indicate a "yes" answer.
This happened several times throughout the investigation and indicated at least one of the spirits present recognized several people in the group.
This is a fairly long clip, at 3 minutes and 37 seconds, but shows not only a variety of activity, but also gives a glimpse of what kind of questions take place during an investigation.
As the clip begins, the SLS camera is mapping out a figure standing in front of the stove. In the background, the ParaScope can be heard going off, as it sits on the teacher's desk. It is heard that the mini-Maglite also turns on at this time
-
At 0:15 the SLS appears to map out a figure on the desk that an investigator is sitting at. The investigator notes that her thigh is freezing cold. (It should be noted that it is possible the SLS was mapping out the desk and not a spirit. The SLS picks up on a figure on the desk again later in the clip, but it is never sustained). The figure disappears at 0:40
-
At 1:22 a member of the group asks if anyone whistled. the group confirms no one whistled. The whistle is only heard by this one person and is not captured within this clip, but was captured on one of the team's audio recorders and is the first audio recording on this page
-
At 1:52 an investigator asks spirit if they can "nudge" a piece of equipment. It is noted that the mini-Maglite turns on, but no other response is heard in this clip. There was a low, breathy response of "no" captured on the team's audio recorders and is the second audio clip listed on this page
-
3:13 the SLS again maps out a figure on the desk in front of an investigator
