Supposedly the Most Horrific EVP Ever Recorded.

LISTEN TO THE EVP HERE

On that weekend in January, CNYGH founder Stacey Jones and several members of the group went to the hotel on an overnight stay for what they thought would be a routine investigation. They had no idea what they were in for.

Originally built in the late 1800s, the building was in its colorful history the site of some nefarious activity, a fact that might be key to what is heard in the EVP.

On Friday night, Stacey and her group set up their equipment – audio recorders, video recorders and other electronics – and settled in, hoping to document some evidence for the haunting the owners had claimed. Most investigations are relatively quiet, but this night was filled with paranormal activity, including muffled voices of unknown origin, footsteps from unseen bodies and more. Members of the group I spoke with confirmed that it was the most active haunting they had personally experienced.

The real shocker came the next day. On Saturday afternoon at about 3 p.m., two female CNYGH investigators and a member of the owner’s family (also a female) sat on the staircase of the hotel with a digital voice recorder, intending to capture some EVP. They chose the stairway because they had heard soft conversations and footsteps on the floor above, although no one was up there.

When they later played the recording back, however, what they heard were not soft voices and footsteps, but something totally unexpected and completely terrifying.

THE EVP: WHAT YOU’LL HEAR

Stacey Jones describes what you’ll hear on the recording:

“You can [faintly] hear the three females talking throughout the recording. You will hear a female – the family member – say, ‘Hello, baby,’ and another long conversation. Those are all human voices. But what sounds like a struggle or attack is going on as well.

“The male [voice] you hear was not present at the hotel. You will hear a cuckoo clock (which was not present) a ticking of a hall clock (which was there); you will hear what sounds like the microphone being moved (which was not touched) and then the sound becomes clearer.

“You will hear a creaking door and slamming of the door, which is real. Then you will hear a [unknown] woman say, ‘Get off me,’ and what sounds like the woman being attacked. The struggle continues for awhile, and during the EVP you can hear some of my investigators’ conversations. After interviewing my investigators, they said they went and sat on the stairs of this hotel, because they heard from an above floor, what sounded like footsteps and conversations, not what you hear on this recording. When the noises stop, you hear the investigators participate in a lulled conversation. They stated that they started to talk when the noises stopped. In their conversation, you will hear a male voice say, ‘Help me’ several times.”

I’m not sure how authentic this is, but it’s pretty terrifying. I wish the paranormal group that captured this would have also released a “non-edited” version, because at times it’s hard to tell what’s investigators talking, what’s spirits talking, and what the slamming and the screaming is. Seeing some video recording of this EVP session would help as well.

Still, definitely worth a listen!

The Hinsdale House

In the 1970’s a new family moved into what they believed to be the perfect home.  Immediately the strange happenings began.  Mr. and Mrs. Robert Fletcher and their four children moved into this 100 year old house that at one time had been a roadside inn.  In the home there was a supernatural terror that had the family scared for their lives.  They turned to exorcism and Fr. Alphonsus Trabold for help.  He believed that the Fletcher home was possessed by a supernatural entity.  
    Mrs. Fletcher and the children first noticed a mysterious chanting sound when hiking in the hills near their home, which disappeared 3 weeks later.  The phone would ring with no one on the other line, the family heard pounding noises, and money and other things would be displaced or completely disappear.  Lights went on and off by themselves, the kitchen stove would turn on and off while cooking dinner, windows opened mysteriously and water faucets would turn on and off by themselves.  One of the children heard dragging noises in the attic, only to have Mr. Fletcher check it out and find the chimney dismantled.  
    The family also witnessed things moving by themselves.  The Fletchers, along with their friends, also began seeing apparitions, mostly of women dressed in long gowns, both inside and outside the house.  Once the family saw several faces looking at them through the window, and when they went outside to check it out, the same faces were looking back at them from inside while the lights flickered on and off.  They also witnessed other apparitions of strange animal-like creatures that were not of a known species.  According to Fr. Alphonsus, apparitions can be caused by hallucinations or by a psychic force.  “If the person is of a stable mind and the apparition is witnessed by others, you can eliminate the possibility of hallucinations,” he said.  
    As the strange happenings progressed, the apparitions began leaving physical evidence behind.  There would be indentations on chairs and beds when no one had sat on them, and the animal-like apparition jumped into the daughter’s lap.  Two family friends caught an apparition, that was in the process of disappearing, walking outside the house on film.  Fr. Trabold and other priests thought it looked like the figure of a tormented American Indian.  
    After that, the haunting grew violent and the family began fearing for their lives.  There was a large family photograph hanging in a room, and once the family found a letter opener suspended over the picture, pointing at one of the girls.  It fell to the ground as the family tried to approach it.  Another time, a lamp flew across the room at another one of the girls.  The Fletchers cleaned up the glass and locked the door to the room, and when they returned sometime later, they found the ace of spades lying in the middle of the floor.  Two of the children woke up one morning with strange burn marks all over their bodies.  
    A few days later, the grandmother heard the Fletchers’ son Randy’s car in the driveway.  She looked out the window and saw Randy and a blonde haired woman drive up to the house and then drive away.  Later on that day, the grandmother found out that Randy’s car had been in the garage all day and was not in operable condition.  A couple days after that, Randy was involved in a near fatal car accident when apparently his car went out of control and hit a tree.  While he was semi-conscious in the hospital, he kept asking about the blonde woman, but she was never found.  However, there was evidence of a passenger because the dashboard contained the indentation of a human head.  A mechanic could not explain the nature of the car’s malfunction.  Randy has complete amnesia about the accident.
    Fr. Trabold performed an exorcism on the house, with family members, researchers, and a film crew present.  During the filming of the exorcism, the lights kept flickering.  The house was calm for a few weeks after, but after the effects of prayer wore off, the strange occurrences began happening again, and the family eventually moved out.

I’ve seen this gif a million times and I always love it because the people are walking backwards down the stairs.
