Walk Thru
	Christine and Angelia conducted the initial walk thru. There were no unusual readings on the EMF or digital thermometer, with the average temperature being 74 degrees. But when coming back downstairs, they witnessed what appeared to be the shadow of a small person, possibly of a child, pass through the bannisters on the stairs.

Investigation

When we first entered the house, there was a very strong sense of energy in the house, as if something was about to happen. We decided to begin our investigations in the upstairs area. As we approached the foot of the stairs, several things began to happen. We were getting very high EMF readings centered on an area about three feet high and foot wide, about the size of a small child. Christine was filming from the top of the stairs, and the camera began to go in and out of focus. This went on for several minutes, and then suddenly stopped. We continued upstairs, and split into two teams. As there had been reports of the spirit of Sallie playing with toys, we put some toys in the child's room, and some ping pong balls in the nursery area to see if we could get anything to move them. Lee, Angelia, and Tim started out in the nursery. They witnessed color lights coming through the doorway. Lee would ask for a certain color light to appear and it would do so. This went on for ten minutes, and did not occur the rest of the night. Later in the evening, they were in the back bedroom when they heard footsteps come up to the closed door and turn the doorhandle. The rest of the team was accounted for, and it was not them at the door. Towards the end of the investigation everyone was gathered at the top of the stairs, when Tim felt a burning on his arm and pulled up his sleeve to reveal several scratches on his arm. Christine also had her hair pulled. In the back bedroom we discovered a strange substance on the wall that had not been there before (see photo at left). We checked the photos from earlier in the evening, it was not visible in those photos. Late into the night, the energy that we had all felt before seemed to have vanished, so we wrapped up our investigation and returned home to begin our evidence review.

Evidence Review

We began by reviewing the video from our Camcorders. We discovered a few interesting phenomena. We captured a moving shadow by the stairs. When we were standing at the base of the stairs, we asked the question, "Is anybody here with us?". A voice answers, "I'm here". The voice is that of a woman. At several points indistinct whispering can be heard. Twice we caught unusual flashes of light. On our DVR's, we caught several EVP's. A child's voice can be heard when we were having all of the activity occur at the stairs. We have instances of whispering. We also caught the sound of footsteps in the upstairs hallway. Upon reviewing the digital photographs, the only thing that was captured were a few orbs. We did have some solid photos of Tim's scratches.

Conclusion

The Sallie House was the most paranormally active location that we have investigated to date. A lot of the stories associated with the home turned out to have a basis in reality. Everything from people being attacked to hearing the voice of a little girl, were also experienced by us. We are very confident in stating that the Sallie House is indeed haunted. Thanks to Les Smith for allowing to visit Sallie.
