A LESSON LEARNED FOR GHOST INVESTIGATORS.
DAPI was contacted to perform an investigation on an area business. The employee’s were experiencing touching, shadows and unusual noises
We were informed earlier in the week that there would be 2 extra guests connected to the business coming to the investigation. When we arrived we found that the word had spread about the investigation and the 2 guest grew to 13 people. That made a total of 21 people. It was very confusing but we managed to get somewhat organized and preformed the investigation. It was a great learning experience for us. It’s always a good thing to remember to limit the amount of people there are on an investigation. When too many inexperienced people get involved it gets noisy. And that could cause problems such as tainted EVP Even people 2 floors away could ruin a night’s EVP work. You have loud talking, laughing, squealing, floor board creaks, and bumps. All kinds of noises that could cast doubt on what the sound is.
One of the things that helps make an investigation successful is the frame of mind of an investigator. You need to be in a positive mood with a clear head. If you have someone at the investigation that has a negative attitude, thinks it’s a joke or just looking to get scared could affect the outcome of the investigation.
Another consideration you have to be aware of is a sprit attaching itself to someone and following them home. It’s always a good practice to say a protection prayer prior to and at the end of an investigation. We as investigators could handle something like that happening but the average person probably could not.
You also have the problem of some of the guest not respecting the client’s property. This will usually come from the same person that thinks the investigation is a joke.
Just remember, keep the number of people to a bare minimum. If you have a lot of people that are interested, invite them to the reveal. It’s much more interesting for them and lets you do your investigation with out distraction.

House Investigation 10.18.2008

House Investigation 10.13.2008
On October 28th the members of DAPI performed an investigation in which a person had died. One of the reports we received from the owners is of someone walking in the upstairs hallway. We set up a Sony Hi8 video camcorder that has infrared lighting capabilities that enable us to film with little or no light. When we reviewed the video we found that we caught an orb that comes out of the stair way. It moves down, and as it reaches the bottom front of the dresser that is sitting on the left side of the hall, it turns to the right heading away from the camera and goes up about a foot. It then picks up speed as it enters the bedroom on the left. You can view the video from that night Here
Watch closely. Best to watch in full screen mode.

Church Investigation 8.2.08

On 8.2.08 DAPI investigated a church that has been the site of all types of paranormal activity, including full body apparations, cold spots, shadow figures, and disembodied voices. Our team broke into 3 investigation groups, and we broke the facility into four areas. This report includes some of the highlights of the investigation.

For the EVPs, you should have external speakers on your PC. Some have a combination of an investigator speaking, followed by an EVP. For these, you will need to turn down a bit for the live talking, and then turn it up for the actual EVP.

In the upstairs social hall, one of the investigators encountered a cold spot. In that area, he also got an EVP of a woman saying "Hello." This sound has also been heard live.

Click here for the EVP.

We got the same EVP on a video camera running in the room. Click here. When it runs, it will take a while to download. When it's done, hit play again, and it will run at full speed.

More EVPs and pictures to follow. We're still building our blog site. Stay tuned!
