You feel or see your first ghostly presence, capture your first EVP,
photograph or video and it makes you realize
there's more to the world around us than just the one we live in.
That's when the journey begins
and it's different for every person. One aspect of doing
research and investigating is the possibility that our friends
and loved ones who have crossed will come through on our
evidence.
Listed below is some of our "proof"
that helps us believe that ghosts/spirits do exist .
shared by Rhonda Burton
My spiritual evp research started after reading Sarah Estep's,
Voices of Eternity.
I then
joined the AAEVP which later became the
Association of Trans Communication. This research
was to try and confirm that the soul's personality survived
after death. I learned much
from the members and directors of this association, for which
I'm forever grateful.
The evp below is from my daughter who passed in 2007. The
Christmas after she died
I was trying to decide on making her an angel or halo Christmas
ornament. That night
when I recorded she spoke the words, "mommy, I'm an angel."
When I do my sessions I ask if there is any spirits who would
like to communicate.
I never ask for names unless we're on location and are specifically trying
to communicate with someone.
"mommy, I'm an angel."
The following evp's were recorded on a super moon night at home
and was amazing. You will hear my daughter and myself asking
questions and responding to spirits, I was using the SB7 (Spirit
Box 7)
"I
love you"
"
I do"
"I'm
Edward"
"What's up Heather"

communication with the deceased through
modern technology. This is a very informative video
and worth watching.

Experimenting with different
techniques is part of learning to communicate
with spirit. One of my favorite methods was created by
Margaret Downey and it's a form of ITC (Instrumental
Trans Communication).
This method is time consuming,
but can be
very rewarding. The technique is using a pan or bowl of
water, video camera/camera and a flashlight. You shine the
light to the side of the bowl and stir the water with your
finger causing a ripple effect, then ask spirit to show
themselves. Record no longer than 30 seconds, upload video
and review frame by frame. You will be viewing 30 frames per
second and spirit will show up in one frame, if they choose.
You can also use a camera shooting continuous shots. I captured
the images below at different locations.
1.Woman in Black 2. Eagle Head 3. Female, face in
hands, leaning on elbows.
Series of faces in one frame,
male face, dog, woman with child or animal, a man wearing a hat.

The below
locations have been investigated by AGC numerous
times over the last 10 years and have a very special meaning to
us.
Circa 1889
History: Frederick & Frances
Hanger created this
beautiful, American Queen Anne style home
after remodeling an older structure dating to the late 1860's.
The Hanger home stayed in the family for 4 generations and was
listed on the National History Register in 1974. The
current owners have original furniture and items owned by the
Hangers, given to them by Hanger family members. They also
love this beautiful home, spirits included.
Activity: The
current owners saw Mrs. Hanger on the first day as they were
moving in. She has
appeared in a misty form and as a full bodied apparition
standing on the stairs. The owner told us, "she makes her
presence known in a gentle and comforting nature. She is ever
present and would absolutely never miss a party."
Proof: First visit
to the Hanger House. Owner was trying to find a photograph
of the grandson
of Mrs. Hanger. You will hear her talking, then a male's voice
say, "back here." The photograph was
on the end of the table where we were sitting. No men were
present during the visit.
"Back
here"
"Back here" enhanced
Rhonda asked, "do you go back to heaven?" A male spirit
responds, "I do."
"I do."
Female spirit says, "I love you." Then you will
hear Rhonda and owner responding because
dowsing rods were crossing after owner had asked a question.
This was not heard real time.
" I love you."

Circa 1910
History:
This historic hospital was opened in 1910 and closed in
1973. In 2006 it was listed
on the National Registry of Historic Places and also listed as a
Arkansas Historic District.
Today the buildings and grounds are being used as a secure area
that provides protection for the clients that reside there.
Only one building is available for investigations and does not
interfere with the clients.
Activity: Shadow
people, full bodied apparitions, loud noises, evp's of men,
women and children, being touched, doors being slammed shut, these are a few reported activity
from employees and paranormal groups.
Proof: Rhonda & LaDonna
were trying to take a picture of themselves and laughing.
You will hear Rhonda say, "perfect" then the female spirit say,
'this is silly stop."
"This
is silly stop!"
A loud bang, sounding like a gunshot,
happened inside a room with Valerie, Debbie &
Cathy. Towards the end of the recording you will hear
Debbie say, "did you get scared?" Valerie replied,
"when you started screaming I did." You will then hear a voice
say, "it was me."
"It was me"
Rhonda was using the SB7 (Spirit Box
7) asking for a name, the response was heard real time, he
responded with, "Brad."
"Brad"
Rhonda & Debbie were the only ones in
the building, you will hear Rhonda say, "will you please try and
talk to us?" A male voice says, "I'll try." The SB7
was also used during this evp session.
"I'll try."
___________
Circa 1842
History:
Walter's-Curran-Bell House (or Curran Hall) was built in 1842-43
and
is one of the oldest residential structures in Little Rock.
Activity: Rocking chair on
back porch moving, picture in hallway falling off wall, feeling
of being watched and touched, coffee pot turning on, employees
locked in shed and bottle in curio cabinet moving.
We have recorded many spirits at Curran Hall, two have
been past owners.
Proof:
On our first visit to Curran Hall, during an evp session, Rhonda
asked several times who was visiting Curran Hall and could they
tell us their name. During this time Linda was dowsing and
getting
responses, when the temperature dropped. Debbie detected a
7 degree difference in the area surrounding Linda.
We believe this is the voice of Mary Walters, the original owner
of the house. She says, "Mary,
that's who I am."
Mary,
that's who I am."
Averell Tate was the last descendant of the Bell family
who lived in the home. Below is an evp
of a spirit saying, "Averell."
"Averell"
On the last visit to Curran Hall Rhonda and Linda
recorded the following evp's and were the
only people present. The "Woman in Black" Water Video
Photograph above was also taken at this time.
"Get
out of here I'm talking"
"Alex"
"Tommy"

These are the first recorded deaths. Two other women would die
in the 70's and in 2004.

the same woman's reflection standing behind her as she was
looking in a hall mirror. This woman
was a good friend of the family and was murdered in Residence

Residence #2 - Cold spots, noises, back stairwell very
uncomfortable at times. Full bodied apparition
seen sitting on the living couch then disappeared.
