History
The current building where the tenants live was once a school building built back in the 1960’s. This school, however, has not been the first school built on the property. There was another school before it that was torn down, and the new school built upon the old foundation. The old school had a basement, but it was filled in with the bricks and debris of the first school and is no longer accessible. The property ownership has changed hands quite often over the years, resulting into the conversion of apartments.

Investigation
C.O.P.S. team members present: Tony, Russell
N.O.R.I.P. team members present: Brad, Allison, Donald
OKCGC team members present: Logan

N.O.R.I.P. invited COPS and OKCGC out to investigate this residence near Ponca City. N.O.R.I.P. has been to the site many times and their first EVP was recorded in one of the more active rooms.

All three teams arrived at the site and met with the homeowner and went over some of the procedures of the night’s investigation. Russell asked the homeowner a few questions about his personal experiences there. Meanwhile, the rest of the team started setting up equipment and was ready to run through a sweep of the north hallway and rooms. For complete details on all the baseline readings, please click here. No major anomalies were documented during the sweep, save for a small degree drop in one of the rooms.

After the sweep the team moved into Room 10, a room believed to house much activity. Logan set out all the AC EMF arrays while the team members sat down around the perimeter of the room for IRC’s. Tony began asking standard EVP questions. Throughout the sit-down in Room 10, the team kept hearing knocking sounds coming from the adjacent room. It was later discovered to be externally caused by the wind.

Once the Room 10 sit-down was concluded, the team moved into the north hallway to conduct another sit-down and IRCs. The Sony Handy Cam was placed on one end facing the doors on the other end. The same arrays were set along the walls of the hallway and were easily seen. Two arrays were placed behind the Handycam as well. Only Logan, Brad, Tony, and Russell were present in the hallway sit-down. Donald, Allison, and the homeowner went into the cafeteria to document and listen. Tony administered a knock test and the team did have a response at the far end of the hallway by the doors that led outside. Irregular tapping was also heard throughout the sit-down in the hallway. Once the Handycam ran out of tape the team packed up all the equipment and performed the last sit-down in the cafeteria.

Arrays were placed all along the stage on the east end of the cafeteria. The team set up chairs in the middle of the room, while Brad and Russell sat on the stage itself to listen and watch the west end of the room. As soon as Logan asked for any sign of the spirit’s presence the entire team heard a knock from the back corner of the room by the kitchen. After a few more questions were asked, the team sat in silence to listen for anything out of the ordinary. Towards the end of the sit-down, Logan commented on how all the green LEDs of the arrays were slowly fading. Tony and Brad both agreed to watching the lights slowly dim.

After the final sit-down, the team packed up all the equipment and thanked the homeowner for allowing the investigation. The video footage as well as the audio is still under analysis from this location.
