Reported Activity and History

This investigation covered a home in Chickasaw, Alabama belonging to Randy and Linda Whatley. They have reported voices, doors opening, bed shaking, toys moving and other common phenomena associated with haunting.

Preliminary Findings & Hypothesis
The residence has no historical evidence of death, or any type of turmoil. The location is in a small community away from overhead power lines. We established no hypothesis or had any other ideas of haunting other than what was told to us by the residence owners.


Baseline Readings
Outside Humidity: 86%
Outside Temp: 82 degrees F
Climate: Clear

LST: 8:15
Research done by James P. Spottiswoode suggests that there are higher incidences of paranormal activity at the 1300 hr LST then at any other time.

Planetary K Index: 1 Kp (K-indices of 5 or greater indicate storm-level geomagnetic activity.)
Geomagnetic: 98.8 nT
Scientific research done thus far shows there is a direct correlation between paranormal activity and the strength of the of the earths geomagnetic field.

There were no abnormal electric and magnetic readings to note.

Electric and Magnetic Field Readings
 
Reading Level Area Notes
0.2 mG Boys Bedroom No variances noted
0.1 mG Front Bath No variances noted
0.2 mG Master Bedroom No variances noted
0.1 mG Hallway No variances noted
0.1 mG Girls Bedroom No variances noted
0.1 mG Back room No variances noted

Average temperature per room showed no large fluctuations in temperature. Average temperature was 76.02 degrees F.

Resonant Frequency Analysis

Rooms were measured and calculated for resonant frequency. Due to the size of the rooms and objects within the room the resonant frequency was not a concern. Calculations showed that resonance fell well within acceptable limits.

With the infrasound threshold being around 140dB at 20Hz increasing to about 162dB at 2 Hz; many of the most profound effects of sound are attributed to infrasound in the region of below 13Hz and above or equal to 7Hz. This corresponds with the median alpha-rhythm frequencies of the brain. It is also commonly alleged that this is the resonant frequency of the body’s organs and hence organ rupture and death can occur at high intensity exposures.


Video and Audio Analysis

Video: none
Thermal: none
Camera: none
Audio: none

Experiential Analysis

None of the investigators had any personal experiences that would suggest a brush with a ghost or any other paranormal activity.

Conclusion

Based on the data collected and the experiences during the investigation, we feel that there is not enough evidence to say this residence is haunted.
