Empress Theater EVP’s…

We are excited to start reporting on our investigation from our investigation at the Empress Theater. I want to start by once again thanking those people who were so kind as to grant us access to the theater, and allow us to investigate. We had a good time, and felt blessed to be given this opportunity!

This first EVP was taken in the basement of the theater. We hit a very‘Cold Spot’ and decided to start an evp session. One of our investigators named Holly was in the room with us and she was sensing something was with us in the room…..you will hear one of our investigators asking questions to see if there are any entities in the room. He is asking them to use our energy to speak to us, and as he is telling the entity to draw from us you will hear the entity say “Holly”….. We looped the feed so you can hear it at the end.

This next EVP takes place later in the evening…..WE are near one of the costume closets also located in the basement. This is an area where there have been reports of activity, things moving, things being taken etc. We all heard a loud noise coming from the closet as something was thrown at us. You will hear the object hit the ground behind us, and then one of our investigators asking….”What was that?”

This final EVP was taken at almost the end of the evening…we were wrapping things up and you hear one of our investigators saying  he hasn’t sensed much, but would it be funny it we ended up with four or five EVP’s……You then hear an eerie laugh coming from behind him.

As with all our EVP’s please take them for what they are worth, and let us know what you think! Also stay tuned because we are not done evaluating our data…

Empress Theater…..

We are very excited to have been granted access to the Empress Theater in Historic Magna, Utah. This is an investigation that we have wanted to do for some time now!

A little background onThe Empress Theatre; This majestic theater opened in 1916 originally as a Burlesque show for the local miners at Kennecott. In 1917 it began showing silent movies. The theater remained open as a movie theater through at least 1930.

The theater sat vacant for nearly 50 years until the late 70’s when it was purchased and an extensive renovation began. The theater then passed through multiple owners and it was nearly 30 years later before it finally re-opened in 2006.

This theater is full of history, intrigue, and multiple ghost sightings, and we hope to uncover some of her mysteries!

Ogden Exchange II…

We have been posting about the Ogden Exchange investigation for a few weeks now, and after going over all the evidence we would like to present this EVP for you…

Here is some background; our little team of investigators was doing an EVP session in the main lobby of the Exchange building. Part way through the session, we could see something moving down the end of one of the long hallways. 3 of us saw the figure (or outline) of a woman coming in and out of one of the rooms, and stepping into the hall. After watching it for a few minutes we went down to the end of the hall and proceeded to ask questions.

You will first here one of our female investigators asking if the entity wants the men in the room to leave…..you will then hear another of our investigators say “There it is” (we were doing the mag light test, were you turn off a mag light and set it on the floor. You then ask questions for the entity and ask it to turn the light on for yes or off for no).  When our female investigator asked if the entity wanted the men to leave…..the light turned on. That was why our other investigator Sais,” There it is”. You then hear one last question, “Do you want the men to leave? If you want the men to leave turn it off again and the men will leave.”

If you listen closely you will hear something / someone starting talk behind the final question….and then you will hear a very distinct female voice say, “Yes Sir” …. We looped the audio, so that you can hear it a few times in a row.

WE feel that this was a direct response to the question being asked.

Shadow Figures / Shadow People…..

Shadow figures, and shadow people are one of those “controversial” subjects; (However, let’s face it…if you decide to become a paranormal investigator EVERYTHING about this field is controversial)… But shadow people and shadow figures are at the top of the list.

I don’t usually turn to television programs for examples, BUT this scene from The Ghost Adventures, has got to be one of the very best examples I have seen caught on film. Some may say its all a hoax, and I cannot say whether this particular example is real or not..(However I believe it is). I can say that I have indeed seen such shadow figures for myself, and so I know they are out there.

Please take just a minute to watch this, and let us know what you think!!

Passive Infrared Motion Sensors Anyone?

Motion sensors are used in ghost investigations to monitor activity and to alter the investigating crew of potential activity. The model we use (and will be testing out on our next investigation) uses a basic sensor to detect both heat and motion (within a 3’ radius of the device). If there is either a sudden increase of heat or if there is movement around the device it will light up for 30 seconds.

Other investigators have used them in rooms that didn’t seem to have any activity, however after reviewing their data they discovered there was in fact activity. Both the sensors were activated, and they reordered EVP’s that went along with the triggered sensor.

We will let you know how it goes, and give you our feedback!

Is Paranormal Investigating a Passing Fad?....

For those of you who think that investigating the paranormal (or ghost hunting) as it has been dubbed is a new thing introduced through the modern “reality T.V.” phenomenon, take a look at this:

The first recorded ghost investigation was in 100 AD by Pliny the Younger, a lawyer, author and magistrate in ancient Rome. He wrote about the investigation of a haunted house in ancient Athens. Even before that, in biblical times the followers of Jesus though Jesus himself was a ghost walking on water. That reference has to say something about the ancient belief in ghosts.

In 168, one of the first full time ghost investigators was Joseph Glanville. He was a chaplain of King Charles II, and he investigated paranormal activity all across the British Isles. His most famous case was the Drummer of Tedowrth, and he even published his results in Saducismus Triumphant.

The first recorded organization (formed for the purpose of investigating haunted locations) was the Ghost Club, founded in London in 1862. In the mid 1880’s the American Psychological Association suggested applying scientific method to paranormal investigating and the idea gained strong support fro England. As a result the Society for Psychical Research was formed in order to study the existence of ghosts or spirits. This group is STILL in existence today!!

So when people say that paranormal research is bogus, and a passing fad that will die with reality T.V.…. you know it’s been around a lot longer than anyone of us!!

Thomas Edison….Father of the modern EVP!

Thomas Edison was one of the most respected scientists in modern history, and he believed that it would one day be possible to build a machine that would help humans communicate with the dead! In a 1920 essay, Edison wrote: "Now what I propose to do is furnish psychic investigators with an apparatus which will give a scientific aspect to their work."

Eddison is also quoted as saying: "If our personality survives, then it is strictly logical or scientific to assume it retains memory, intellect, other faculties and knowledge we acquire on Earth.
Therefore...if we can evolve an instrument so delicate as to be affected by our personality as it survives in the next life, such an instrument, when made available, ought to record something."
~Thomas Alva Edison~

Early EVP’s have been recorded since the introduction of sound recording in the early 1900’s At first these unexplained voices were dismissed as anomalies, but as early as 1936 scientists began looking at EVP’s as possible “Voices from the Universe”

In 1982, Sarah Estep developed a rating system for EVPs: Class C are the faintest recordings, sometimes indecipherable; Class B voices are louder, clearer, and make more sense; and Class A voices are clear, can be heard without headphones and can even be duplicated onto other tapes. This system gives a new researcher a way to describe the EVPs he or she discovers to others in terms they will understand.

Ghost, Mist, Smoke, or Light???

Believe me when I tell you the list of non-believers is immense compared to those that do believe in the paranormal. This is why we do our best to prove as well as disprove everything that we can.

That being said I wish to present another photo taken from our Ogden Exchange Investigation last month. The interesting thing about this photo is that one of our investigators saw something moving in the corner of the room. None of the rest of us saw anything so a few of our members started taking pictures. In a group of probably 6-10 photos taken one after the other this photo was the only one that had anything show up on it.

To us it appears to be a paranormal mist; which is believed to be swirling energy that resembles fog, illuminated by light. It is something that can be seen by the human eye (but typically it is captured by camera because the phenomenon happens so fast).

As with all our evidence, we present it to you and want you to make your own conclusions!!

Ogden Exchange Building…

Last month we were privileged to do an investigation in the Ogden Exchange building. This building is reported to be one of the most haunted locations in Utah. This building was erected in 1930 and used as a livestock exchange until 1959 when Weber County purchased it and converted it into the Weber County Mental Health Institute.

There have been murders, suicides, and one reported death due to a heart attack.

We did get some very compelling EVP’s…(coming soon)….But we wanted to present this picture. The first picture is the original. At the time it was taken one of our investigators stated that they could see something in the hall.

At first glance this is what the photo looked like. Our tech manager then started lightening up the photo to see if we could get anything from the shadow.

So here is the same photo lightened up a bit……Look closely on the left (you can click on the photo to see it in a larger frame). Upon seeing an outline our tech manager zoomed in on the now lighted photo and this is what we got.

As always, we are not claiming that this is necessarily paranormal…however we did have an investigator see something in the hall, and there does appear to be the outline of a person coming out of the doorway.

It was a really good investigation, and we will be posting more about it soon!

Welcome To The New Team…

We want to welcome all of our Salt City Ghost Seekers friends! This will be their new home. We have combined forces to create a bigger and better team of like minded individuals.

Don’t we worry we will still be investigating and posting our findings as usual; we will still be answering questions and doing our best to help “illuminate” the paranormal.

Please stay tuned for some really important updates and an exciting new chapter for all of us here.

Best Haunted Attraction Website for 2011….

Ok boys and girls, this was a VERY difficult one indeed…. There are so many really good haunted attraction websites out there, some are scary, some are funny, some are a total assault on the senses and some just tell a really good story! Sooooo we have come up with a two first place winners, (because it was just too hard to pick an absolute favorite). These two sites combine the best of all worlds, they are creepy, they are well put together, and they are entertaining all at the same time. Check them out, explore the links, and have fun!!

Dead Acres…(In Pataskala, Ohio)

“We set out to stand out: Dead Acres is a full sensory assault. Taking you by the throat and dragging you down the rabbit hole and into the realm of heart pounding in your face horror show….”

House of Shock…(New Orleans, Louisiana)

“THE BEST PART ABOUT THE HOUSE OF SHOCK OUTDOOR HALLOWEEN FESTIVAL IS THAT IT IS ABSOLUTELY FREE!*

So if The House of Shock was too intense for you before... Now you can come out to enjoy the festival and watch all of your friends, family and total strangers get the $#!T scared out of them! There is no better entertainment than that!....”

Best Haunted Attraction Promo for 2011…..

We have been reviewing the 2011 haunted attraction promo's from all over the nation. Some have been really well done, and believe me when I tell you some of them just plain stink…

What people in the haunting business (who make a name for themselves and are successful) have realized is that you have to market your product successfully. You may have the very best haunted attraction in the nation, but if you don’t market it well, and you do a poor job presenting yourself to the public, no one will come to see you.

It was a tough decision but we felt this years best Haunted Attraction Promo was The Headless Horseman Hayride and Haunted House in Ulster Park, New York..!!



The Exorcism of Annelise Michel…

~Anneliese Michel
(September 21, 1952 – July 1, 1976)~

(WARNING: This audio File is VERY DISTURBING in nature)…. It is actual audio footage from the REAL exorcism and should only be listened to by consenting persons.

Quite easily the most controversial exorcism of all times …. This is the real life story that the movies “Requiem” 2006 and “The Exorcist of Emily Rose” 2005 are loosely based on.

Anneliese was born in Bavaria Germany to a strict Catholic family. At age 16 she began having convulsions and was diagnosed with epilepsy. She soon began having hallucinations, and suffered from depression, and also began hearing voices in her head.

She was admitted to a psychiatric treatment hospital but her depression and overall condition did not improve. She was given various anti psychotic medications (and many specialists believed that this would help her condition).

Anneliese and her family became convinced that she was suffering from demonic possession and during a ten month period from 1975-1976 some 76 exorcism sessions took place. Once the exorcisms began (and at her own request) the doctors and medication were no longer used.

On July 1^st 1976 Anneliese died in her sleep. The autopsy report stated cause of death as malnutrition and dehydration….she only weighed 68 lbs. at the time of death.

Two years later the priest and her parents were pronounced guilty in a court of law of manslaughter resulting from negligence.

Doppelganger Apparitions, A Controversial and Hot Topic….

The word Doppelganger comes from German Folklore (Double Walker) is what the word literally means, and it refers to a paranormal double of a living person.

Here is where it gets a bit muddy….Some sources say it is an evil apparition that takes on your form (and the only entities that can do that are usually demonic in nature). Other sources say it is strictly an omen of death, if you see your Doppelganger it is the ‘grim reaper’ looking back at you, and will die shortly.

I have heard of instances however where people see themselves in past form (they see themselves in a residual haunting) meaning something that happens over and over with or without anyone noticing. And that is ALWAYS attached to a horrific event in the past. This however is not a TRUE Doppelganger, because you are not seeing yourself here and now.

The only way they have enough energy to move across the room, or turn on the faucet is if the are a very in-tune sprit, or if they are demonic in nature. A really strong ghost can move things (small things) turn on lights, etc. Only a demonic spirit can move heavy objects and hurt someone.

This is supposedly done by the manipulation of energy around the spirit. They take the energy (and negative energy is very strong) and use it to manipulate things around us.

Photographing the Paranormal…..

One of our favorite “HOT” topics is catching the paranormal in photographs. I am sure many of you have taken a picture (more so in the past when you actually used FILM) and when it was developed you found odd light sources, and distorted faces. The question is; are these REALLY paranormal apparitions, or are they just defects in the film? Are they sprits, or are they just distortions of light?

The most common paranormal occurrences caught on film are;

• Orbs
• Vortexes
• Ectoplasm
• Shadow Ghosts

We have captured numerous orbs on our investigations, and I will agree some are dust, BUT I will also argue some are very debatable! Take this photo for example, taken on a calm evening with no wind… The light orb is in motion, and it appears to moving upward. Is it a bug, is it dust? Some would argue that it is…. I feel differently about this one. This orb was caught on film at the same time we cough the Edward Parr EVP.

A Haunting in Pennsylvania….Help us Decipher These EVP’s….

A really good friend of the SCGS came to us earlier this year with concern that her home may be haunted. We went back and forth on a number of possibilities and when we finally came to the conclusion that SOMETHING was going on, she decided to have her home investigated. Because she is on the other side of the country she had a local group perform the investigation.... (We would have loved to do it ourselves).

After the investigation she sent the evidence back to us so we could analyze it. We spent hours reviewing the EVP’s and felt like we came up with some good ideas of what was being said.

We would really like for YOU to listen to these EVP’s and tell us what you think is being said. We will post our response later on this month, but this is your chance to be a ghost hunter and help us processes this data.

You may need to turn the volume up to hear these.....

Edwin G. Parr EVP

We were doing an investigation at the Salt Lake Cemetery and upon asking if there was anyone around us who wanted to say anything we got this chilling EVP….

Upon further investigation, we found out that an Edwin G Parr died of pneumonia at age 13 and was buried in the Salt Lake Cemetery on June 10, 1906.   We are not decided if the EVP is saying Edward, or Edwin....(let us know what you think it says)...

Local Ghost Stories…….

This is Salt Lakes very own Jimmy Chunga’s (local DJ, Actor, and celebrity) ghost story. Those of you who live in Salt Lake may have heard this story from Chunga on 101.9 the end….and those of you who haven’t WILL want to watch this.

It takes place at the ‘This Is The Place’ monument and it is a very cool paranormal story worth watching!

HAuNTCON 2011……

For those of you thinking of starting your own Haunted House…..(Heaven knows I would love to) you NEED to check out Hauntcon. Hauntcon is an acronym for Haunted Attraction National Tradeshow and Convention. This expo is designed by Haunters, for Haunters. It is a three day convention with tours of local haunted houses, and a tradeshow floor featuring the latest gadgetry in the industry.

One key component of Hauntcon in education, workshops, demos and seminars set up to help you make the most out of your homes décor, to full fledged haunted house.

The 2011 Hauntcon is sadly over….BUT you can first in line for the 2012 Convention in Pittsburgh.

And The #1 Haunted Attraction in America is……

According to Haunted House Online (and Haunt World Magazine) the scariest haunted house in America for the 2011 haunted house season is........

Pennhurst Asylum and Bates Motel in Philadelphia PA. Both attractions are owned and operated by the same company, and are a short drive of eachother.

The Bates Motel is located deep in a 200 year old forest with overgrown trees and dark trails, this puts people on edge before they even make it to the main attraction.

The Pennhurst Asylum is on of the scariest locations in America do to the real paranormal activity that takes place within its walls. Both The Ghost Adventure Crew and the Ghost Hunters have investigated the Asylum and both teams have come up with truly haunting paranormal evidence.

Check out the 2011 commercials for each of these attractions!!!

Is My Home Haunted???

This is a question we get quite often, no one wants to jump to conclusions and declare a home haunted. The reality of paranormal activity is exciting for some, and terrifying for others. Here are some of the basic questions we ask people when confronted with this question…

Have you recently lost a family member or close friend?
Has anything like this happened before?
Do you seem to lose important items and they show up again later?
De pets (such as dogs or cats) avoid and seem afraid of certain areas of the home?
Do lights or televisions turn on and of by themselves?
Have you heard someone call your name when you are home alone?
Do you feel as though you are being watched?
Have members of the family used a Ouija board or similar items in the home?
Do photographs in the home appear with unexplained mists or orbs?

Is any member of your family involved with the occult or participated in any form of Satan worshiping?

Is your home built near any sort of cemetery, or otherwise sacred land?

Have there been any murders, or other dark activities take place in your home in the past?

These are just a few of the questions we will ask people when they think they might have something paranormal going on. If you answered yes to any or all of these questions then you might consider contacting a local paranormal investigator, or talking to your local clergy.

2011 Ghost Hunting Season

As the prime ghost hunting season is upon us our team is getting together to plot out our research areas. We will be returning to the old Miners Cemetery near Copperton, and we still have unfinished business at the Ft. Douglass Cemetery (last time out we experienced a total equipment failure due to a nasty electrical storm).

We are open for suggestions, that means YOU our faithful followers….(all 3 of you) Ha ha ha…If you know of any haunted spots in the Salt Lake area please feel free to send in your suggestions!

Jack-O-Lanterns

With our favorite holiday just around the corner we wanted to add a few fun posts about the season and its origins!

Here is some cool information about the Jack-o-Lanterns

A jack-o'-lantern is typically a carved pumpkin. It is associated chiefly with the holiday of Halloween and was named after the phenomenon of strange light flickering over peat bogs, called ignis fatuus or jack-o'-lantern. In a jack-o'-lantern, typically the top is cut off, and the inside flesh then scooped out; an image, usually a monstrous face, is carved onto the outside surface, and the lid replaced. At night, a light is placed inside to illuminate the effect. (Sources taken from Wikipedia)

• Since 1995, trick or treating in the town of Sandusky, Ohio, has been against the law for anyone older then 14.


• Pumpkins originated in Central America.


• It is very rare for a full moon to occur at the same time as Halloween. It has only occurred in - 1925, 1944, 1955, and 1974. The next time it is said to occur is 31 October, 2020.


• Pumpkin seeds can be roasted as a snack.
• The word Halloween appeared in the Dictionary in the 1700s.


• Eighty percent of the pumpkin supply in the United States is available in October.


• Dunking for apples arose from a practice of divining the future. It was believed that if you could hold an apple between your teeth you would have a fulfilling romance with whomever you choose.


• The name pumpkin originated from "pepon" – the Greek word for "large melon."


• According to ancient superstitions, if you stare into a mirror at midnight on Halloween, you'll see your future spouse.


• Colonists sliced off pumpkin tips; removed seeds and filled the insides with milk, spices and honey. This was baked in hot ashes and is the origin of pumpkin pie.


• The pumpkin is one of the best sources of Vitamin A.

Can an Object be Haunted?

This is a question we have been asked many times before, and the answer is YES…. The inanimate object in and of itself is not haunted, but it is referred to as a “Trigger Object”. A trigger object can be anything associated with a deceased person that is used to catch the attention of that entity.

These items can be, keys, toys, coins, photos, anything….There have been documented cases where a trigger object (such as a stuffed animal) was placed in a room and that object was seen moving. There is also a case where a ball was placed in a hallway and the ball was also moved from its original location.

Some trigger objects are not so innocent and can attract entities that don’t just want to roll the ball… In some cases these trigger objects have been known to attract poltergeists, and have also ushered in other entities besides the one attached to the trigger object.

IF you think you might posses an object that is triggering paranormal activity, try getting it out of your house for a while. Give it to a friend to hold, or put it in a safe deposit box at your local bank. See if getting rid of the object stops the activity.

What is a Poltergeist???

Poltergeist is the German word for ‘Noisy Ghost’. . Poltergeist manifestations can include (but not always) inanimate object being thrown or moved around a room, knocking, pounding, or banging noises. In VERY RARE cases the person witnessing the event has been physically attacked.

Because the study of the paranormal has no conclusive scientific explanation of this event..(And there are many who do not believe these events even occur) it is difficult to say why and how this phenomenon occurs. Some studies indicate that the troublesome spirit is trying to make contact with a particular person and is doing it in the only way they know how. Other studies suggest that these entities are simply mischievous spirits who like to scare the living.

One study that I have found to be rather interesting suggests that a poltergeist is brought on by the individual experiencing it. Through prolonged periods of unresolved or repressed stress the individual is allowing their negative energy to be used by the entity to fuel its ability to manifest. Often times when the individual seeks counseling (or other forms of help to relive this stress) the reported poltergeist activity stops.

In most reported cases the activity will only last from 1 to 6 weeks and then it will just stop. Once again (as stated before) due to the lack of scientific explanation all we can do is continue to study these cases and hop that one day science can help up understand why these things happen, and how to control the situation.

Your feedback is always welcome!!!
