INVESTIGATIONS
013-01. Richmond Community Theater
Rockingham, NC
Thursday, January 24, 2019
PDRP's long-awaited investigation of our local community theater did not disappoint. Claims from this famously haunted location include everything from apparitions and phantom knocking to women being touched by an unseen entity.
008-02. Undisclosed Residence
Concord, NC
Friday, February 22, 2019
PDRP returned to Concord to re-investigate a property with reportedly increased activity since our last visit. While the team's new Ovilus got some interesting results in the garage, evidence overall was inconclusive due to high tension power lines overhead and potential faulty wiring causing a "fear cage" effect.
014-01. Undisclosed Residence
Wadesboro, NC
Thursday, May 23, 2019
One of PDRP's most fascinating cases yet! A slew of paranormal activity ran a family out of their home and PDRP was called in to help. Reports of a presence in the master bedroom were confirmed by images of a shadow person, and one investigator was scratched! The team worked late into the night to clear the home and educate the homeowners on how to protect themselves.
015-01. Undisclosed Residence
Rockingham, NC
Thursday, July 11, 2019
A fellow paranormal investigator invited PDRP to investigate her purportedly haunted home right here in Rockingham! Activity centered in the basement, where the team took turns conducting EVP sessions and captured a number of direct responses.
016-01. A Southern Touch at The Estate
Rockingham, NC
Thursday, August 15, 2019
PDRP was called in to investigate a local event venue and quell the owners' concerns about some haunted happenings. A number of excellent EVPs were captured, and we even caught a door closing by itself on video!
017-01. Old St. David's Church & Cemetery
Cheraw, SC
Friday, October 25, 2019
A private group investigation brought PDRP to one of the oldest churches in South Carolina and its surrounding cemetery. With such a rich and fascinating history, we were not surprised to hear a myriad of different voices when we ran the Phasma Box in the church. We also had some luck communicating with flashlights in the cemetery, which even puzzled some of the skeptics who were present.
018-01. Undisclosed Building
Darlington, SC
Friday, January 31, 2020
PDRP investigated a historic Darlington building with a gruesome past and plenty of restless spirits to go around. The third floor proved to be the most active, as the team repeatedly heard footsteps and talking/whispering up there, accompanied by battery drainage throughout the night. Some of the voices even gave audible intelligent responses (without equipment). It was a very strong case for personal experiences.

EQUIPMENT
EMF Detector
Detects electromagnetic fields and displays the reading in milligauss (mg) on a digital screen. A normal room will typically read 0mg to 1.5mg, where a room with a ghost or spirit present may read 1.5mg to 8mg.
K-II Meter
Detects electromagnetic fields and lights up from green to red based on the EMF level detected. Often used as a method of communicating with ghosts or spirits.
Digital Thermometer
Reads ambient temperature and used to determine if a spirit or ghost is drawing energy in a room, or creating "cold spots". A paranormal reading is considered at least 10 degrees below the base reading of the room.
EM Pump
Device that uses spinning magnets to generate an electromagnetic field (EMF) that ghosts or spirits can use to manifest.
SLS Camera
The "Structured Light Sensor" camera uses an infrared RGB camera with 3D mapping technology to give shape to a spirit's energy in the form of a stick figure. PDRP utilizes an Xbox Kinect to perform this function.
Spirit Box
Generic term for a device with a speaker that uses an audio feed, either by scanning radio frequencies or a stored bank of audio clips, as a means for ghosts or spirits to communicate. PDRP uses a modified version of Steve Huff's Wonder Box, known as the Static Box. It consists of a mini amp, reverb pedal and noise suppression pedal, and connects to an SB-7 radio to scan different frequencies. Spirits can manipulate this audio to generate discernible words or phrases, often in direct response to questions or actions.
Ovilus
Device used to communicate with intelligent spirits by measuring temperature and electromagnetic fields, then combining the readings to correspond with a built-in database of words. This effectively allows the spirit to speak without the need to decipher audio recordings.
