Date: Wednesday 10-28-98
Time: Started: 8: 15pm and ended: 10:15pm
Location: Trevose Fire House, Trevose, PA
Equipment: Canon Sure shot camera with 800 max film, Night owl Cyclops night vision scope, Radio Shack wireless infared motion sensor.
Weather/Temp: Inside investigation. 70 degrees inside
History: I didn't ask for any history of the building prior to going to investigation.
Those Present: Joani S., Lew & Sharon G., Bob & Elaine R., Rachel G., Kenny & Donna B., Danny & Nancy S., Jen J., and Andy K.
Report: We began the investigation in the banquet hall area of the fire house. As we began to set up our equipment, Lew saw an orb with his night scope. He said it was up around the ceiling. I took out my scope and began to look up at the ceiling area. I also saw an orb move from the area around the vent over into the ceiling. I wanted to use my camera because I seem to have better results with that so I gave my scope to Kenny. He also saw an orb above the other members of the group. Kenny said that it was moving pretty fast, so I didn't even try to take a picture of it. I saw Andy sitting on the floor using his scope, so I went over and sat down next to him. I asked him if he saw anything, and he said that he hadn't. I told him that Kenny and I saw an orb over his head. We sat for a while and he used his scope and I took some pics. I did see some "lights" in my flash.
Most of the members went upstairs after we set up. I asked Andy if he wanted to take a walk up there. As we started up the steps, I got the chills when I got up towards the top. This was the only time during the night that I experienced any really strong feelings. I did feel drawn to that area and spent most of my time there the rest of the night. I felt especially drawn to the ceiling area also. I did take a lot of pics there. After I checked out the upstairs, I went down to get another roll of film. Kenny came over and told me that he had just seen a figure of a man walking down the hallway close to the kitchen. I went over with my camera. Donna, Jen, and Nancy were there also. Nancy and Jen took some pics. Donna scanned the area with her thermal scanner. The area remained 70 degrees. Kenny explained that he saw a large man walking down the hallway, as he watched him, he walked into the wall at the end of the hall. I thought this would be a good place to put my motion sensor. I placed it at the end of the hallway. We didn't get any results from there the rest of the night (that I know of) .
I went back upstairs to check out the rest of the areas up there and I found Lew, Sharon , and Rachal sitting in the back area where the bar is located. When I asked how everything was going, Lew told me that he had experienced chills in the area of the stairs. I found this interesting since I had the same experience.
I spent the rest of the night shooting pics of the ceiling and balcony area. The only thing we did different at this investigation, was that we used a strobe light. Lew thought it would be a good idea to try it out to see if we could see anything in the lights. I didn't notice anything. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed anything.
Impression: My impression is that this fire house is haunted. We were there around 2 hours and were lucky enough to have members see orbs through the night vision, and also have members see figures with their eyes. My strongest feelings were on the stairs to the balcony, and also the balcony area.
