CASE INFORMATION

This was SJGR's second investigation of the Grand Army of the Republic Museum and Library, located in the heart of Philadelphia, PA. 

A much higher number of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs) were recorded during this investigation than on our previous visit, many of which were interactive, answering questions posed by SJGR investigators.  While lesser amounts of anomalous EMF and motion sensor readings were recorded on this trip, results of the investigation were still in the above normal range.  Two temperature changes were recorded, and nearly double the amount of photos were deemed positive than from the 2006 investigation.

Again, many investigators sensed energy from both residual and spirit activity in the building.

AUDIO CLIPS

9:51pm – Investigator Kurkis recorded this EVP after the Tri-Field EMF Detector registered an anomaly.  After saying, “someone thinks they saw someone go by out here”  this voice is recorded saying “I didn’t come through here”  Click here to play EVP.

10:02pm - Investigator S. Carroll recorded this EVP on the third floor after asking the question, "Is there some other object you feel you have to stay here to protect?”.  It is a spirit voice replying what sounds like a long, drawn-out "No”. Investigator Davis received the impression of this answer at the time of the recording.  Click here to play EVP.

10:42pm - Investigator E. Smith recorded this EVP after Investigator Beaty received an impression of “war between the states” while Investigator Smith was asking questions if they were in the Civil War. It is an interactive EVP of a male voice saying "Yes" about 6 seconds after Investigator Smith asks, “Can you tell us what year it is?” Click here to play EVP.

10:45pm - Investigator S. Carroll recorded this EVP at the moment when Investigator Davis opens a toolbox in the basement.  It is the voice of a male saying “Don’t open it!”  Click here to play EVP.

11:07pm - Investigator Clendaniel records this EVP after seeing a male dressed in a grey uniform following Investigator K. Smith.  After saying flash to indicate she was able to take a photo, a man's voice is heard saying "Take me".  Click here to play EVP.

9:31pm - Investigator Beaty took this photo after Investigator Juliano heard a cough no other team member hears.

11:07pm - Investigator Clendaniel took this photo after seeing a white male with scruffy facial hair and wearing a grey uniform follow Investigator K. Smith  in the Meeting Room, trying to get her attention. 

11:09pm - Investigator M. Carroll took this photo after Investigator K. Smith feels chilled, and Investigator Clendaniel senses someone in very interested in Investigator Smith.

11:48pm – Investigator Davis took this photo after recording a 10 degree temperature spike.
