I know everyone is eager to hear about our adventure in Iowa. So here is a quick jest of what had happened.
I have to say we all were very tired when we got there.
We started late at the Axe Murder house so we skipped the grave yard tour and went strait to the house. (the grave yard would be checked out the next day)
When we toured the house, I really didn’t feel anything funny except when I ended up being alone. (Which was several times) Then I had a strong sensation of someone being there watching me. At one time I was having a problem setting up the camera in the children’s room, frustrated, I sat down on the chair and tried to figure what I was doing wrong. ( I was having a problem focusing the camera) As I sat there I suddenly had an over powering feeling of …no escape….no way out….
The big question was why didn’t the kids run, scream do something to try to escape…My feeling was that they were trapped, it happened so fast.
After that feeling subsided, I managed to get the camera working after making sure it was pointed correctly I felt a man was standing just beyond the door way. I thought Todd had came up the stairs. As I looked up and no one was there, I heard a man’s voice saying “Get Out”
Jack remarked that he too heard a man’s voice. Kathy A. and Barb stated that in the parent’s bedroom they felt creepy.
Could have this been the time when the killer broke into the house to hide?
We took turns going into the house. I was outside on the short wall having a break and Todd was in the barn. I saw a shadow of a person walk up to the barn. When I looked up I did not see anyone or hear anyone. Once again I saw the shadow. It looked as though someone was standing there. I stood up to see who that was. I thought that perhaps someone was sneaking around the barn. No one was there. I checked to see where Todd was and he was in the barn. No one was on the porch area. What had made the shadow I do not know.
Another time when I was alone in the kids room, I took the black light and was looking at the floors to see if I could see the blood spots. I saw some staining on the floor but not where I expected to see it. I thought maybe the beds were placed right or perhaps they had linoleum on the floor. (this, or some form of it, has been around since the 1860’s) I had a sudden feeling of don’t do that. I put back the black light and took some photos. I planed to check the parent’s bedroom with the black light, when I felt once again, don’t do that. At that time I heard Kathy A and Barb come into the house. I took a few more photos and started heading down stairs.
As I walked down stairs, I had to go slowly as the steps turn twice and on the turns were small angled steps, I had a small flash light in my hand which I was pointing it down. As I walked down the steps, I saw a small bright orb slowly traveling in front of me. Puzzled, I stopped and checked to see if it was something that I was holding that was causing the orb. When I stopped the orb stopped too, just a few steps below me. I moved my hands, moved my arms the orb still was there. When I started up again it also walked slowly down the stairs. Ok I thought, maybe one of the girls was taking a temp reading on the stairs. Though the light was white and not red like the thermo temp readers I we have. I called out to both Kathy and Barb and asked if some one was taking a temp of the stairs as I was walking down it.
As Barb approached the stair well the light zipped out the doorway leaving me in the dark. I was upset as I wanted someone to see this orb and I was upset because no one was answering me.
When I got down the steps I told them what I saw. Barb went into the pantry and said she felt a cold spot there. I quickly took a few photos hoping I could pick up something. I wondered about the little light. Was it one of the kids walking down the stairs with me to make sure I did not fall?
Another time I went in the house, Todd and Rosey were upstairs. I didn’t want to disturb them so I sat in the living room. I brought in some toys for the kids to leave there. I think all of us brought something for the kids. I intended to leave the toys in the down stairs bedroom but Jack had a camera going and I did not want to disturb it so I left the toys in the living room. I sat quietly on the sofa and listen to the noises of the house. Rosey and Todd left the house and I was once again alone in the house. I was absorbing the atmosphere and trying to get a feel for the house. I then called out to the spirits. You know if you want us to leave you have to do something. Soon after that I heard what sounded like a marble dropping, bouncing several times, and then rolling away. I hurried out the door to get my tape recorder then came back inn. The group was saying that nothing was happening and maybe they should start to go. I said that things were just starting to happen and turn back into the house. Jack followed me and we sat in the living room.
I asked several questions, the house seemed quite. I asked Jack if he had any questions and he said no. So we sat in the dark and the quite for a short while. All of a sudden we heard a loud crash. It sounded as though it came from the kitchen. Jack checked and nothing was wrong.
As Todd, Rosey, Kathy, and Barb went upstairs to get the equipment, they noticed that the toys that were on the table were all knocked down. As they were talking about it, the closet door opened a little then shut. Todd said, it was as though someone peeked out to see if any one was there and saw him then quickly closed the door. Barb said the ball in the bedroom started to follow her around.
