Harmony School Surprises PP-SC Investigators

Harmony Rino protected by Spirit Orb

Investigators set up "trigger object" in center of gym to attrect spirits.

I think all of our team members were surprised at the amount of paranormal activity in the school, although we probably should not have been considering the amount of human energy absorbed by the school’s environment over the many years the building has been used.

We saw shadows darting between the rooms, orbs appear in photos, then disappeared when the next photo was taken, and moving orbs in a couple of photos.  Most of the orbs appeared in the classrooms and in the gym and around the stage. Some people discount orbs as just being dust, but some of these appeared when we called out to the spirits and disappeared after the pictures were taken. We also obtained some weak EVPs at the same time and/or personally heard voices during the time the orbs were present. The audible yells such as during a ballgame, and the sounds of children playing, and faint whispers in response to our questions are on some recordings, but not of the Class “A” EVP types,

When the shirt was tugged and later a leg brushed, this occurred to the two young men we had with us.  During both instances an orb was pictured with them and in one incident, a voice was heard – a giggle.

I wonder how long the residual spirits have been playing the ballgame in the gym – and who is winning!? More than a couple of us heard the cheers and we obtained an EVP to back us up.

 All this occurred during our four-hour hunt.  Harmony was not disappointing to our team.

Harmony is a wonderful school for all who attend – even for the playful little spirits who apparently attend 24 hours a day. There is nothing to be frightened of in the building, and now Harmony students and teachers can use the excuse for lost papers or misplaced items on the little spirits who reside there.

Thank-you Harmony, Taylor, Sandi, Jay and Trisha for an enjoyable evening.

Harmony Hosts Spirit Realm

     When we were asked in January to come to Bloomington, Indiana to Harmony School to talk about the paranormal and our investigations, I was very happy to oblige. When we were asked to perform an investigation for and with a twelve-year-old student as part of her yearly speech project, we became excited for the privilege to hunt at the large and historical structure located just south of the Indiana University campus.

     Harmony School is a private institution with enrollment of approximately 200 students from early child development to twelfth grade. Located in the historic Vinegar Hill Limestone District of  Bloomington, it was originally known as the Elm Heights School. Closed by the public school system, it was reopened  as a private school in 1974.

     On April 14th, seven Paragon Paranormal investigators  invaded the halls of learning. Joined by four representatives of the school (two mothers and two students) in the official four-hour hunt (a short one because of the nature of the location and the fact that we had younger students with us) we did find evidence of some paranormal activity.

     We’re all still going through our data taken on the recorders that evening, but we do have little children’s giggles, the sounds of children shouting and whispers of what sounds like older kids. I’m sure we will find more as we listen and look at our recordings and members confirm each others results.

     Keep looking back to this website for more information!

     A quick thank-you to Taylor and Sandi, Jay and Trisha for helping us!

Latest Pre-Investigation Shows Promise

We had been anticipating the investigation at the Quillen Plumbing warehouse in Martinsville, Indiana, for several weeks and finally on a warm Friday evening, March 16th, we were able to do a preliminary three-hour search to see if the location has any paranormal activity that could be captured on our equipment and make it worthwhile to perform a longer and more intense scrutiny.

First, I would like to thank the Quillen’s and Gary, for giving us the opportunity to enter their property and hopefully we can ultimately give them an answer to their questions about what is causing the apparent paranormal activity in the building.

The evening started off slow as we positioned our team members throughout  the building, but at the end of the allotted time, almost everyone on the team had been “touched” or “poked” by unseen hands. New, in-training  investigators Travis and Natasha, both experienced touching within minutes after we turned them loose on their own in the main hallway where most of the reported activity was reported by the Quillen’s and their workers.

 

Quillen Plumbing in Martinsville, Indiana

Front of Investigation Site

There were a couple of episodes of scraping noises of an undetermined origin occurring at the same time touches were felt by two investigators in a section of the building previously used as an apartment.  A weak EVP, (one I would consider a class “B” which requires headphones)   of a female voice saying “no-no” in response to questions asked by investigators Bob and Cindy, was also obtained at this time.

Footsteps were heard from the upper level apartment, but the resident who lives there was not at home at the time we were doing our investigation.

We do intend to return to Quillen Plumbing warehouse to do a more intense, all night,  investigation sometime in the near future.

New EVP’s and Photos, Investigating Local Event

For those of you who have been anxiously waiting, we have added a few more EVPs and photos on the website. Enjoy them - they include an older photo from a local cemetery which is well-known in the paranormal circles, and among the local teens – Stepp Cemetery, in Morgan – Monroe Forestry. It’s a very good example of a spirit energy form that occasionally shows up in photos – in this case, a 35mm.

We’re also investigating an event that occurred locally, near our home close to Paragon, Indiana, on Friday, February 17th, around 9:15 p.m. I felt the shaking of the floor in my house, then heard a low-level blast. Being a geologist, I initially thought when the shaking started that there was going to be an earthquake, but the blast noise immediately afterwards that changed that thought.         I have since heard from a few other individuals who live nearby that they heard it too and one has said she saw a blue light at the same time.   The sheriff’s department received several calls about it also.   We need all the information we can get concerning this event. Let us know if you have any details.

If you have a location you think is paranormally active and need an investigation, contact us through the website or directly to me at carol@paragonparanormal.com,  and we’ll help in any way we possibly can!

Good Hunting!

Paragon Paranormal – Whispers Estate Investigation

On Groundhog Day,

 Paragon Paranormal – Shadow Chasers  invaded the Whispers Estate in Mitchell, Indiana for a night of investigation. We saw shadows, used Gwen’s glowing superballs to play with the children, heard groans, and thumps all night and at least one really good EVP in Dr. John’s bedroom.  

  There were several personal experiences and one of being touched. These are the reasons we will be investigating the Whispers Estate again in the future.

I’m still going through the data, but I’m sure we’ll be posting some good evidence really soon.

Thomas House Investigated by “Ghost Hunters”

Thomas House Inn Entrance

The noted paranormal group of the SyFy Channel, “Ghost Hunters” invaded the Thomas House of Red Boiling Springs last December, finally airing the show on Feb.1st.          And— It was great! The spirit known as the Whistler made himself known 2 times and Sarah was not to be left out either. We at Paragon Paranormal – Shadow Chasers, are very familiar with both of these spirits since they both have spoken to us during our many investigations at the Thomas House. (You can hear Sarah telling us “Nighty-night” on one of  our EVPS.)

If you can catch the show on the reruns, please check it out.  I guarantee that if you are interested in the paranormal, you will be making a trip to Red Boiling Springs, Tennessee very soon.

Good Hunting!

Mission Statement

Mission Statement

We conduct our investigations in a controlled, scientific manner, by trained investigators, first looking for known and natural causes of the circumstances causing the complaints. If no natural reason is found, then we investigate the paranormal causes and ascertain the types of phenomena, spiritual or otherwise, which are causing the events. We do not “exorcise” or try to stop the activities, but in most cases, we can recommend someone who can assist. We do not charge for our services, but we do ask to use the information obtained from our confidential investigations for use in this website, personal appearances, and in print. All investigations are assigned a project number since we do not disclose names and addresses of private homeowners, unless specifically asked to do so.
