EASTERN
STATE PENITENTIARY
The following EVP's were obtained at Eastern State
Penitentiary.
1) This EVP was obtained
by PGHA member Sharon G. during an investigation of ESP. Rachel and Sharon
had been in the rotunda waiting for the rest of the group to return from
Death Row which is located outside of the building and behind the prison.
As they waited and talked until
the others returned Sharon heard someone walk up behind her from cellblock
6 (her back was to it). When she turned around no one was there. So, she
said to Rachel, "since we are waiting, let's do some recording". Rachel agreed
and they did so. They stood in the middle of the rotunda both looking down
block 4 with night vision while they recorded. As they stood there asking
questions they heard a loud noise coming from block 3. It was so loud that
it actually made them jump because it was so unexpected. It gave them the
impression that the door had been opened and had dragged against the floor.
When they looked the door was indeed slightly open. But, they could not say
for sure if that was the source of the sound or if the door was even closed
all the way prior to this incident (Rachel thought she was sure it was closed
before). Either way, a few more foosteps could be heard in the area but yet
they could see no one. In this EVP you will hear Rachel say: "Hello, come
out into the hall where I can see you. I'm here waiting for you". You will
then hear the loud sound that they heard.

JIM
THORPE
The following EVP's were obtained in Jim Thorpe Pa.
All EVP were obtained at the Inn of Jim Thorpe unless otherwise
noted.
1) The
following was obtained at a B&B in Jim Thorpe, Pa.

2) This EVP was obtained
by PGHA member Andy K. with his digital recorder during our groups 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!
3) This EVP was obtained
during our groups investigation of the inn. 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". EVP captured by PGHA member
Andy K.
"No, don't
leave"
4) This
EVP was obtained during our last seminar in November (2002). Our son attended
with us so we decided to allow him to ask some questions in our room. The
room we were staying in happened to be the same room where we got our "No,
no one's here today" EVP (above) a few years ago before the fourth floor
was renovated. You will hear our son ask: "What is your name?" You will then
hear an answer. We believe it says: "Frank"

22)
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"
23) 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"
24) The
following EVP was obtained by PGHA President Lewis Gerew in 1999. 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

25) The
following EVP was obtained by PGHA President Lewis Gerew in 1999. 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.

26) 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".

27)
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"!
28) This
next EVP was recorded at Devils Den in 1998. 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"!
29) This
next one was recorded while investigating the Farnsworth House in 1998. 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. The REAL name of this
song is "Colonel Bogey
March" You can hear this best 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"!
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.
During this investigation, there were no TV's or radios playing for obvious
reasons.

FORT
MIFFLIN
The following EVP's were obtained
at Fort Mifflin.
1) This audio recording
was capture by PGHA member Andy K. during one of our overnight seminars at
Fort Mifflin. Attendees on the first floor of the Officer's Quarters had
been hearing someone walking around on the second floor. Andy immediately
went up to check it out and found no one there. So, he did a recording session.
This is what he got.
I, Sharon, hear: "on the trail......let's get out of here."
Andy hears: "get out.....get out of here."
Lew hears: "watch out....look behind you."

2) This audio recording
was capture by PGHA member Rachel G. during an overnight investigation at
Fort Mifflin. This EVP was captured at the Commandant's Building where Rachel
and Sharon were investigating alone. Rachel asks: "Do you have any children?"
There is then a slight pause then a man's voice can be heard saying: "I don't
have any children".
"I don't
have any children"
"I don't
have any children" (cleaned up version)
3) This audio recording was capture
by PGHA President, Lew Gerew, during an overnight investigation of Fort Mifflin.
No one was talking during the recording. However, you can clearly hear "someone"
(we hear a man's voice) say the number "89".
89 Wav
4)
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"!

FARMHOUSE
The following EVP's were obtained
at a 1720 Farmhouse.
1) 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"

VARIOUS
CEMETERIES
The following EVP's were obtained
at various cemeteries.
Confederate
Cemetery
1) 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."

to make out what the voice is saying, but it is definitely there and not
of those present.

Bristol Cemetery
3) 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"!
MISCELLANEOUS
The following EVP's were obtained at various
locations.
1) 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.
