Kudzu Paranormal's first investigation was the Davis House at Strawberry Plains Audubon Center. To learn more about the history of this house click this link. A story of the group's adventure in this house is posted below:
January 21, 2016 – Davis Mansion,
Strawberry Plains Audubon Center, Holly Springs, MS
The mini swamp behind the Davis
Mansion was our first stop before going into the house. Well built
wildlife viewing bridges and walkways made it easy to maneuver while watching
the sky for severe thunderstorms that were to hit Holly Springs later that
evening.
After unloading equipment and
sleeping bags, we set up our ‘headquarters’ in the 1970’s addition to the
house, better known as the den. Then began our initial new equipment
training and see what the GoPro with IR and Full Spectrum light would do.
We did a full sweep of the Davis
House to get temperature readings and just to get a feel for the different
rooms including 2 parlors with some “original to the house” pieces of
furniture, back porch with full bird viewing windows, formal dining room,
massive staircase, a large stair landing, 4 full bedrooms and 3 ensuite
baths. Lots and lots of 19th century period antiques, all room
appropriate, and amazing period artwork as well. John J. Audubon prints
adorn the home.
This particular night became more of
a field day than a ghost hunt. No video activity captured, no
footsteps, no cold spots. We did capture a little audio evidence upstairs
on our SB-7 Spirit Box. It continually said one of our investigator’s
names and we caught a female voice EVP saying “one” right after an investigator
says “one”. The strangest feeling room to all of us was the “Baby Room”
upstairs where there is an antique crib and double bed. Just felt a
little heavier in there.
Our engineer investigator has
discovered many ways to get K-2 and Mel Meters to react to cell phones.
He had a few good laughs before letting us all in on the joke after we became
excited to see lights blinking and sounding off. After we beat the crap
out of him, the storm began with spooky lightening and thunder as you see in
haunted house movies.
The ghosts were few, the hunting was
such a great experience, and the friends were even better.
Stay tuned for our next
adventure! Hopefully in February.
