09/07/2008 It has been slightly over four months since our last posted update, but work is being completed and uploaded to the site nearly every week. We have been slowly upgrading our photo galleries to Flash-based galleries that allow for optimal viewing and better control. We have also been upgrading links to EVP files from text to an embedded Flash player for easier playback. Videos on the site are being embedded as well using Microsoft Silverlight for instant playback. We will be adding new content soon, but in the meantime here are some photos from Iraq that have been added to the Times of War page in the Miscellaneous section. The photos include some of the bombed-out palaces and other interesting places that you'll never see in Ohio!
05/02/2008 While it has been three months since the last update, small tweaks were being made here and there. First up, regular visitors will notice that the banner has changed! It features the state of Ohio with the state flag in the middle along with a new font and shading. Now for new content. Several new cemeteries were uploaded. They are Luray Cemetery, Niesz Cemetery, Parkinson & Babcock Cemetery, Stewart Cemetery, and York Street Cemetery. All of the new cemeteries include complete photographic record of all standing tombstones. Results from a second paranormal investigation at the Greater Columbus Antique Mall have been posted, including four new EVPs; and results from an investigation at an Undisclosed Cemetery in Scioto County have been posted that include three EVPs. The structures section was refined once again to include more accurate titles for each subcategory of structure. And lastly, we are proud to announce that our very own Larry Copeland has opened a website to offer his intuitive mediumistic abilities to everyone. Take a look at LarryCopelandPsychic.com.
01/26/2008 Welcome to the first update of 2008, it is a big one! New cemeteries have been added today. They are Carlisle Cemetery, Greencastle Cemetery, Lilly-Dyer Cemetery, and Raver Cemetery. All of the new cemeteries include complete record of all standing tombstones. The Elisabeth's Grave page has been updated with new historical information and previously unpublished daytime photos of our trip there in 2004. The Structures Section has been updated with a new location key to avoid confusion of demolished versus renovated. RED still represents a building that has been demolished and ORANGE means the building has been renovated and is now under private ownership. The demolished Lakin Industrial School for Colored Boys (AKA Lakin State Hospital) has been added to the Prisons/Jails page of the Structures Section and is our first structure from out-of-state. Stories & Contributions in the Paranormal section has been appropriately renamed Contributed Stories with the following additions: Pleasant Home Residence, Magnolia Cemetery, Baylan House, Orchard Road Residence, and Norwood Middle School. Tidied up some hauntings and added new hauntings to Athens, Butler, Clark, Clermont, Cuyahoga, Lorain, Scioto, and Trumbull counties. Updated Doctor Snook's page with Theora Hix's and Dr. Snook's death certificates. And last but definitely not least, we added a link to our friends at The Ohio Society for Paranormal Investigation to the External Links page.
