CASE INFORMATION AND BACKGROUND
This was SJGR's first overnight investigation at Fort Mifflin and our 3rd investigation of this historic location over all. The team again obtained a high number of EVPs which seems to but the pattern here. The percentage of positive photos was low given the high number of photos taken. Once again EMF readings were obtained in areas that have been reported to be haunted for years.
On the psychic end, there were many impressions obtained by investigators including ones from investigators here for the first time which coincided with previous impressions we have gotten here. There were a few apparitions sighted and shadowy movements along the walls of the fort. One sensitive may have made contact with one of the resident ghosts, Elizabeth Pratt.
