Warehouse On The Canal Investigation

Case #5002010OPJRQ

This investigation was conducted at the Warehouse On The Canal in Canal Fulton, Ohio on October 17, 2005; start time 9:00pm, end time 11:15pm.

General Information

There have been numerous paranormal events witnessed in the old building that dates back to 1906. The owners of the building often host Psychic nights and ghost tour nights, one of the only ghost tours held year round. A mysterious dark figure has often been seen named Lester. It is believed that Lester may be the ghost of an undertaker who ran a mortuary in the building's basement for years. The ghost of a disturbed young man is said to hang around a corner in the attic, along with a ghostly girl who fell down the narrow stairs. Many psychics have reported feeling sadness and loneliness in the attic. Broken tombstones from a nearby cemetery were kept in the attic for many years but have since been cleared out. Several specters haunt the second floor as well. One in particular may be that of a man who passed away in an office after suffering a heart-attack. It is believed there may be a vortex in the basement across from an old elevator shaft. A local television news station once placed a webcam on the vortex and many viewers saw images of faces appearing on the floor. Unexplainable footsteps can be heard, lights have turned on and off by themselves, and radios have changed stations without reason, usually to country. Thanks again to DeLuca and Charlotte of Q92 for giving us the opportunity to investigate with them!

Paranormal / Unusual Activity

During our investigation, the EMF Meter did pick up slightly high readings near the vortex area in the basement. It was also in this area where Investigator Matt felt a great pain in his stomach, as if he were punched. The event took place as Psychic Sonya was performing a summoning at the spot of the vortex. After a few minutes, Matt felt fine, but did state that he had never been hit so hard...by something living or dead! The video clip below is from a camcorder that was taping in the basement when Matt was struck. It is a large file, so it may take a few moments to load. Matt did manage to get two EVPs as well. The first was recorded just after we entered the basement. It insults Matt with profanity, saying "F*ck you". Maybe something just didn't like Matt for some reason. The second EVP sounds like a name, possibly Alex Green. An odd light did show up in one digital photo, but it was determined to be lens flare. Some video still needs reviewed and the film photos need analyzed. Any results will be posted here ASAP.

Evidence - Audio / EVP

	*Fck You:** This was recorded by Matt just after we entered the basement, and before he was hit.
	*Fck You Radio Edit:** This is the same EVP as above, just edited for sensitive ears.
	Alex Green: This was recorded as Psychic Sonya was beginning her summoning. The voice says "Alex....Green."
