Cases of Ghosts Affecting Children

I'm one of the mediums in the Inspired Ghost Tracking group. Since I joined the group a couple of years ago, I've been on several home investigations. Each one is different, and it's always unsettling whenever an earth-bound ghost is bothering children. 

    Inspired Ghost Tracking is dedicated to investigate, document and provide help and intervention with paranormal and supernatural phenomena to clients in need. Inspired operates in Maryland and service surrounding communities within our areas of operation. 

  Recently I went on an investigation where two children kept seeing a figure (it was a male ghost). Children have the ability to  see,  hear and sense ghosts., where adults have lost the ability. WHY?  Because a child's logical thinking has not developed. 

  As a child, we have not yet learned to try and explain everything by "normal means," - that is, try to provide a logical explanation for everything that happens in the physical world. As we grow older and are educated in math, physics, science, etc. we look for logical explanations for things that happen in the atmosphere, or noises made - like tree branches rustling in the wind, or houses settling, or steam coming out of heat vents on cold days. 

  Children don't look for those explanations, so their open minds see ghosts and spirits more easily, because they don't immediately discount them. -

  So, whenever a ghost is bothering a child, and adult really must pay attention and ask the child questions. Ask: Is it a man or woman? Is it a boy or girl? What is their name? What do they say? What do they look like? Did they live here? Why are they  talking with you? When do they come to you? * Remind a child that a ghost was once a living, breathing person and are likely looking for help to move to another place and be with their relatives. 

  If the child is scared, then go easy with the questioning and learn as much as you can. Then, call a group like Inspired Ghost Tracking to investigate, confirm and help cross the ghost over.

She has seen and heard things in the home. This photo was taken during a birthday party for her oldest son. She couldn't believe what she saw in them. Her grandaughter seems to be looking at a ghost.

My Investigation on the Streets of Baltimore

One of the cool things I do is investigate places that may be haunted. Yesterday, I joined Margaret and Ronda of Inspired Ghost Tracking (the group I belong to) and Barry, who is a co-owner of a great Scarborough Fair Bed and Breakfast in Baltimore, to walk the streets of the Federal Hill neighborhood and see what kinds of ghostly activity I could pick up.

Rob tells Barry and Ronda about a murder that happened on this spot.

  I've been to Federal Hill many times, and have never sensed anything, usually because I was paying attention to the people I was with or the event I attended. This time my focus was tuning in to the energy and events of the past.
  I honestly didn't expect much, but walked away with about 12 different entities all with distinctly different stories. Most of them were outside, because we didn't go inside buildings -  which is somewhat unusual, because ghosts usually linger in places they were familiar with, unless they died outside, as several people did, and still lingered.
CONFIRMATIONS:   I'm not going to give any details here, but I will say that I was able to confirm several of them!  In one case on a certain street I sensed an accident (long ago) and identified the type of person killed and how- and Ronda, the group historian, said she had read about that very accident in her research!   In one of the places, now a bar and eatery I sensed a shadow man and it was confirmed by the bartenders. 
WHO WERE THESE GHOSTS?  I received messages from dead people from all walks of life: a politician, warehouse worker, rum-runner from Prohibition, a prostitute, banker and more. I was able to sketch several of them out, too.
  In short, this event was very much like my experience in England - there were a lot of ghosts around. I just had to tune in an pay attention. Eventually, all of these stories, once proven by Ronda as she continues to search through historic records, will be published or put into a tour (Which is why I can't disclose any details now) . I'll keep you posted.

Who made the First EVPs?

Margaret and Ronda of Inspired Ghost Trackers asking questions on digital recorder

According to Wikipedia, "Electronic voice phenomena (EVP) are electronically generated noises that resemble speech, but are supposedly not the result of intentional voice recordings or renderings. Common sources of EVP include static, stray radio transmissions, and background noise. Recordings of EVP are often created from background sound by increasing the gain (i.e. sensitivity) of the recording equipment.
  So, who made the first recordings of ghosts or spirits? According to George Noory's book Talking to the Dead, it was Waldemar Borogas in 1901. He was exiled to Siberia and used a Thomas Edison phonograph during a session he was beating drums. Between the drumbeats he heard disembodied voices!
  Working with the Inspired Ghost Trackers, we've recorded several of them, including one from the Book Escape in Baltimore where we investigated. At the time we got the EVP, I thought I heard a man's voice briefly. When we listened to the digital recording later right after I thought I heard the sound, we all heard "Go away!"
  Pictured here are Margaret and Ronda of Inspired Ghost Trackers asking questions during an EVP session. The hardest part is listening back to the recording to see if anything or anyone speaks up!

Thomas Edison and Contacting the Dead

I've been reading George Noory's book "Talking to the Dead." George is well known for being the host of the amazing and widely syndicated radio show "Coast to Coast AM." I was honored to be his guest recently and really enjoying talking with him.
 - George's book talks about the history of EVPs, and obtaining audio from ghosts and spirits. One of the things that piqued my interest was his discussion of Thomas Edison. He said that Edison said several times that he may have thought communicating with the dead was possible. At one point, Edison said "There is a doubt. I am not sure. That's the reason I am experimenting. But if I didn't believe, I wouldn't try."  Noory said that if Edison tried to work on a prototype, none was found when he died.

Thomas Edison

  Ghostvillage.com wrote an arhttp://www.ghostvillage.com/ghostcommunity/index.php?showtopic=19802ticle about Edison's communications:
  Noory's book is filled with many people who tried creating "telephones" to talk with the dead, including an inventor in Scotland who put a telephonic apparatus to the throat of mediums in order to "hear spirit voices" coming from within the medium. That invention came about in the late nineteenth century.
  Interesting stuff- and check out George Noory's book "Talking to the Dead" for more info on trying to obtain electronic recordings and EVPs.

VIDEO: Ghost at The Book Escape: Part 1 (Baltimore, 2012)

Author and developing medium Rob Gutro talks about his abilities to communicate with those who passed. Part one is a general overview of what ghosts and spirits are, and the difference between them.  -Toward the end of this 4:44 minute video, Rob talks about the happenings of the Book Escape. IN PART TWO: More Clues about ghost is that haunts the Book Escape.


**NOTE: There were some children in the audience- so the talk was toned down as not to scare them. (One thing I mentioned was that ghosts can't harm you. However, the negative energy they give off can adversely affect the emotions and tension in a household.

Article to Consider - Can Dealing With Evil Spirits Kill You?

I ran across this article to consider: Bad Vibes: Can Dealing With Evil Spirits Kill You? http://whofortedblog.com/2012/07/15/bad-vibes-dealing-demonic-affect-health-kill-hurt/ 

I just learned that Ryan Buell at 30 is dealing with pancreatic cancer. He was the team lead for Penn State's "Paranormal State" television program. The article suggests that several paranormal researchers that dealt with demonic entities became extremely ill. It's something to think about. It's also a good idea to mentally shield yourself before going on investigations- picture a white light of safety around you.

My feeling is that negative energy, and depression within the person weakens someone's immune system. I have a friend in Virginia who has now battled four different types of cancer (starting over 26 years ago) and because he's optimistic and doesn't get depressed, he continues to beat physical ailments. Other people, however, who are battling depression are often sick with various things. That doesn't mean that depression causes illness. Not by any means. It means that depression and a negative attitude will weaken your immune system and make you more susceptible to an illness. - That's been proven for decades. 

I sincerely wish Ryan the best. He's an incredible guy and has inspired so many. Now he's inspiring many in his battle with pancreatic cancer. Please send him positive thoughts, and keep YOUR thoughts positive to help yourself.
