Eastern State Penitentiary EVP
(2001)
The following EVP's were obtained at Eastern State Penitentiary.
This first one was obtained by Sharon during a PGHA investigation of the
prison. After seeing a figure walk by Cell Block 2 and hearing something
loud being dropped in the area, they (Sharon and Rachel) decided to try for
some EVP. However, it was a bit windy outside on this night so Sharon took
a test recording to see if the wind would interfere. It did not. All was
quiet on the recording. Except, however, for the following voice which was
picked up during this recording session. We believe it say's "It's OK now".
"It's
OK now" (click to listen).
This EVP was obtained by PGHA member Toni in the Administration Building
at ESP. She asks: "In what year did you come here?" In response we hear:
"76".
"76"

This one was also obtained by Toni but this time in Death Row. Andy can be
heard asking: "Can you tell us your name?" In response we hear: "No".
"No"

EVP
As of now, we must keep the location of this EVP confidential.
This pertains to 'Confidential 2'. Lew obtained this EVP during an
investigation at a location which we cannot tell you about. In this recording,
you will first hear Andy ask from a distance, "Are you married". You will
then hear Lew ask the same question closer to the recorder. Following Lew,
is when you want to start listening for a response, which shouldn't be hard.
On this investigation, and during this particular recording, Andy was in
one room and Lew in another (and on separate floors). Both had their recorders
recording. The purpose was for Andy to ask a question first, and loud enough
for Lew's recorder to hear, Lew was to ask the same question after Andy.
This is why you hear them both asking the same question.
* SPECIAL NOTE: Lew was in the basement with a female investigator
and our female host when he obtained this. He was the only male on the floor.
The EVP is clearly a mans voice but it isn't Lew's.

First, click on the .wav file to listen to the EVP. Decide for yourself what
you think it says. Next, click the bottom link to see what other PGHA members
thought was being said for each. Each member is required to evaluate EVPs
on an individual basis, unaware of other investigator's opinions. This eliminates
power of suggestion by other investigators and insures that EVP interpretations
are strictly their own. Although investigator responses may vary, there is
no doubt these voices are unexplained.

Bolton Mansion
The following series of EVP were obtained by PGHA member Andy K. during
our recent overnight investigation (8/28/99) of the Bolton Mansion. Andy
used a digital recorder.
In keeping with scientific method and to eliminate the potential power of suggestion, we are now taking a new approach to presenting EVP. First, click on the .wav file to listen to the EVP. Decide for yourself what you think it says. Next, click the bottom link to see what other PGHA members thought was being said for each. Each member is required to evaluate EVPs on an individual basis, unaware of other investigator's opinions. This eliminates power of suggestion by other investigators and insures that EVP interpretations are strictly their own. Although investigator responses may vary, there is no doubt these voices are unexplained. As with other PGHA methods of investigation and presentation, we think this, our new method of EVP inquiry, will quickly become popular among other researchers.

Confederate
Cemetery
This EVP was captured via digital recorder by PGHA member Andy K. Although
this was not an official PGHA investigation, this is what Andy had to say;
"The 'David' EVP was recorded on July 31st [1999] in the Confederate
Cemetery near Carnton Mansion in Franklin, Tennessee. The cemetery
is the final resting place for 1500 soldiers killed in the Battle of Franklin
fought on November 30, 1864 - A confederate defeat. I was the only one
in that part of the cemetery when the recording was made. Carnton Mansion
was behind the lines during the battle and was used as a
hospital."

Inn at Jim
Thorpe
This EVP was obtained during our Jim Thorpe investigation. In one of the
rooms on the second floor, Andy and Sharon stood discussing whether
or not the room next door was adjoined to the one they were in. Unsure
of this fact they decided to leave to go check it out. As soon as they
stepped out of the room you can hear a man's voice say "No, don't leave".

"No,
don't leave"
1720
Farmhouse
The following EVP was obtained in the attic of the 1720 Farmhouse near
Warrington, PA. by PGHA member Andy K. This investigation took place on Thursday,
August 19, 1999. The EVP is the sound of heavy breathing almost directly
into the
microphone.
"Breathing"
The Wheatfield
This EVP was captured by PGHA President and Cofounder Lewis Gerew at the
Wheatfield in Gettysburg, PA. While using his digital recorder, which is
voice activated, he captured this entire phrase: "Take the guns out of the
hands of the enemy". This EVP is exceptionally clear as compared to what
would be considered the norm. Special Note: The word 'guns' was typically
not used during the Civil War in reference to pistols or muskets. 'Guns'
was usually used in reference to the cannons. It was not uncommon for a brigade
to over-run another and turn their own weapons against them.
"Take the
Guns"
Gettysburg
Woods
The following EVP was obtained by PGHA President and Cofounder Lewis Gerew.
The area in which we were investigating is not heavily investigated but has
a reputation. The Park Rangers have been known to avoid this area due to
first-hand paranormal experiences. It has been reported that several of them
have been grabbed by the feet and ankles by unseen hands. The recording yielded
a voice whispering "quiet" just after another investigator, who was a good
distance away, laughed at something. Lew was off on his own with his digital
recorder when this mysterious voice was captured. However, the voice was
never actually heard while on location.
"Quiet"
Sach's
Bridge
The following EVP was obtained by PGHA President Lewis Gerew during the IGHS
1999 Gettysburg Ghost Conference. The EVP was captured with a digital recorder.
Although at the time we did not hear this strange voice while on site, it
sure did come out loud and clear on digital recording. It appears to say
"My children burn". Spooky!
"My children
burn"
** NOTE ** While at the IGHS 2000 Gettysburg Ghost Conference we had the
pleasure to talk to Ron Ogburn of
Ghosts of Adams
County. Ron had a very interesting story to tell us about the above wav
("My children burn") and Sach's Bridge.
Please

Wheat Field
The following EVP was obtained by PGHA President Lewis Gerew during the
IGHS 1999 Gettysburg Ghost Conference. A digital recorder was used.
The EVP includes answers to questions openly asked by Lew. While alone on
the Wheat Field, I initiated an open conversation. After a few questions
which received no response, I asked, "What Regiment are you with?" The reply
was "One-Seventy-Four". Next I asked, "How old are you?" This response is
difficult to make out a complete sentence. However, you can hear individual
words clearly at certain points. We think that the second response may say
"One hundred -- ha ha ha -- Seventy-four". Essentially, repeating the
first reply. The only problem with the information given is that regiments
at the battle of Gettysburg did not go that high in number. It wasn't until
after the battle at Gettysburg that Civil War regiment's numbers had gotten
that high.

Little Round
Top
The following EVP was obtained by PGHA member Andy K. with his digital
recorder during one of our visits to Gettysburg. At the time, PGHA President
Lew Gerew called out loud "Bayonet" to see if the spirits would somehow respond
either on film and/or audio. Well, as you will soon hear, Andy was able to
capture someone in a male voice repeating the word "Bayonet" about 10 seconds
after Lew had yelled it out loud. Since the recording would take up way too
much space, we had to cut the part with Lew out. On the recording you will
hear what appears to be a grunt of some sort followed by the word
"bayonet".

Inn at Jim
Thorpe
This EVP was obtained by PGHA member Andy K. with his digital recorder
during our recent investigation at The Inn at Jim Thorpe. While on the vacant
fourth floor, Andy and I (Sharon) kept smelling a citrus perfume smell that
reminded us of oranges. There was nothing on the entire floor that could
have been responsible for the smell. Yes, we looked. Besides that, the entire
fourth floor was used sort of as a storage area and looked as it may have
many decades ago. So, as you can imagine, this is not an area that is cleaned
too often. Also, some of the others members said that they too had smelled
the "oranges" off and on throughout the night. On the tape you can hear Andy
say, "Hello. Smelled your perfume. Is anyone here?" and right after that
you hear someone say "No, no one's here!" Listen to Andy ask his questions
in the beginning and then listen to the answer he receives.
No,
no one's here!
Trinity Oxford Church
Cemetery
This audio recording was captured by Sharon G., Vice-president of the PGHA
during our investigation of Trinity Oxford Church Cemetery. We haven't been
able to make out what the voice is saying, but it is definitely there and
not of those present.
Trinity
Wav
Fort
Mifflin
This audio recording was captured by former PGHA members Danny & Nancy
S. at our Fort Mifflin Investigation on April 28, 1998. They placed their
recorder in the Dungeon area of the Fort where much ghostly activity has
been experienced. The voice is that of a man yelling from a distance, what
we believe to be "Keep Away".
Keep Away
Wav "Keep Away"!
Bristol
Cemetery
This audio recording was captured by PGHA Vice-president Sharon Gerew during
our Bristol Cemetery investigation on June 10, 1998. It appears to be a voice
of a young child saying "Mom-Mom".

"Mom-Mom"!
Ghosts of
Gettysburg
The following EVP's were obtained during the 1998 IGHS Ghost Conference in
Gettysburg Pa.. Before downloading the wav's there will be a description
of where each EVP was recorded. At the time of recording we heard nothing
unusual. It wasn't until later when we played the tape back that we heard
these chilling EVP's.
This first EVP was recorded in the Homestead Orphanage. Everyone was broken
into groups of 20 or less, and led on a tour of four homes. Homestead being
the first. Rick Fisher, the Director of the Pennsylvania Ghost Hunters
Society had just captured an anomaly with his digital camera and had called
out to the others: "I picked up a couple in this room". A few seconds later
you hear a woman's voice whisper "They're in here". No one had been whispering.
As a matter of fact, everyone had just been reminded previously that
day to talk in their normal voice if they needed to speak during an
investigation. The reason for this is simple. If you were to get an EVP you
want to be sure that it's legitimate and not someone else attending the
investigation. Here it for yourself!
inhere.wav "They're In Here"!
This next EVP was recorded at Devils Den during the 1998 IGHS Ghost Conference.
No one else was present while recording this except Lew and I. I was the
one doing the recording. I just walked around with it on RECORD the whole
time. Sometime the previous day we had heard of the existence of caves at
Devils Den. Being naturally curious, we decided to go and try to find them
ourselves. These "caves" are not the caves one would imagine but rather deep
narrow spaces in between the huge boulders that house Devils Den. Upon looking
around Lew came across a rather narrow space between two huge boulders and
decided he would try and get down inside to take some pictures. I was a little
frightened that once he got down inside that he wouldn't be able to get out
again, so after he made it half way down and had already snapped a few pics,
I asked him to please come back up. He did! Later that night after playing
back the tape I recorded on while at Devils Den we heard something strange.
At first all we could make out was "I am dead ____ ____ ____ ____". We just
couldn't figure out the rest of the words. It wasn't till we returned home
and transferred this EVP to our computer that we finally heard the rest.
It say's "I am dead don't walk on me"! We couldn't believe it! It's actually
rather sad. We heard this best while listening to it through headphones on
the computer and playing it a few (hundred) times.
imdead.wav
"I am dead, don't walk on me"!
This next one was recorded while investigating the Farnsworth House during
the 1998 IGHS Ghost Conference in Gettysburg Pa.. Many people were having
strange feelings in the basement of this place from the time they walked
in. Myself included. Many cold spots were detected with thermal scanners
in this basement, others got anomalous photos. When we listened to the tape
later that night we heard men whistling a tune. You may remember this
as a silly song from your childhood. If anyone knows the REAL name of this
song please E-mail us and let us know. Thanks! You can hear this if you block
out the foreground noise. It should also be noted that this "march song"
lasted for a good 40-50 seconds on our tape. However, we could not include
this entire section because, as you may have guessed, it would take too long
to download.
marchsong.wav
"Men Whistling a marching Tune"!
*Note: Many of you sent us e-mail telling
us that the above marching tune was in the movie, "Bridge Over The River
Kwai". Since we had never seen the movie, we decided to do some research.
Turns out, you were right! The marching tune above was in the movie
and is called...."Colonel Bogey March"
Thanks Everyone!
One last thing. We know that this song did not exist
during the Civil War. This is yet another reason why this EVP is such a mystery
to us. Also, during this investigation, there were no TV's or radios playing
for obvious reasons.
One last thing, if for some reason you cannot download these wav's to listen to them, please let us know. We would be more than happy to send them to you via E-mail!
