Subj: [ParanormalFlorida] Last Night's Investigation Report.....   Date: 2/13/2005 6:51:20 PM Eastern Standard Time  From: AngelOfThyNight@aol.com   To: ParanormalBuffalo@yahoogroups.com,  paranormalghostsociety@yahoogroups.com,  Paranormalflorida@yahoogroups.com,  ParanormalGhostSociety@groups.msn.com   Ormond Plantation We arrived here and my jaw just dropped this has got to be one of the prettiest largest mansions I have ever seen or visited since my move to Florida.  The mansion had a very gloomy feel but it was peaceful. Getting out of my car many different lights were on but Tanya gave me a quite outside tour showed me the pool house, the servants house, and grounds. We then entered the giant Florida room which is a giant porch all screened in but this was the biggest by Far Florida room I ever seen. Right away I felt something enjoy a seat here watching us enter into the mansion. Tanya then took me to the basement and whew I was very excited. This is one of the only mansions in the state of Florida with a full sized basement. There was a few dark areas down here and I turned the corner and said boo. There was an entity here and I just wanted to perhaps make a joke with it to let it know I sense its there perhaps to increase activity. Tanya then showed me the wine cellar, kitchen, dining room, a few offices in the mansion, the grand stairwell, and showed me the five fireplaces throughout the mansion. I was amazed by the grandfather clock, chandeliers, and glossy hardwood floors which was made with special wood found in a Louisiana bog.  But the mansion still had a very plantation look inside just walking around with the old antique furniture, giant oriental rugs, built in china cabinets, mirrors etc etc even the one bedroom had a canopy bed. I just really felt cozy here. Then Tanya took me to a bedroom where a lady had died and the light bulb blew. So the activity started to increase and I felt watched in some of the rooms. I been doing this for awhile so I could tell that at least a few of the rooms had some sort of ghostly presence rather peaceful but still there. We went to her room and worked on her computer then went downstairs to make a pot of coffee. I felt something looking at us through the window. I asked her about it how she felt about them watching her in the kitchen at night she said rather its peaceful but as an supernatural investigator there are areas you know something just stares at you but I felt something outside the house and they did not come in for awhile till later during the night after the investigation. I wandered around the house at times just getting a feel inside and the grandfather clock acted up a few times it rang when I walked past it. One time it just went off randomly she even thought it was weird.  Eventually she stayed inside and let me at it so I went outside to play with the dog. I have to admit it was pretty eerie going out there trampling around this giant mansion. The dog and I played a tinch then I had the dog walk around with me a tinch while I took photos. She was staring at something she seen what I seen which was perhaps ectoplasm or ghostly energy on the back deck which is really long and faces the pool house and servants cottage. I stepped off the deck and the dog would not follow me. She was very startled and in a stance. I kept walking and went around the entire mansion. I took photos and honestly the ghost here were so excited that I recognized them they were moving around me it did not matter where I turned I could see ectoplasm rush up to me real quick, swirling mist, and silhouettes including one of a ghostly figure sitting in a lawn chair.  Things just became interesting in my opinion the entities outside were very advanced and very aware of what I was doing. There was a feeling of happiness its as if they all wanted there pictures taken running up to me. The sprinklers then went on and guess what I got wet lol go figure. Eventually I hiked on back to the servants house or cottage which was more like a cabin with a couple rooms and entrances. I walked inside the first room very unsettling here it was like one of those situations where it felt crowded or like I was interrupting.  I took my photos and went into the other part of the cabin. I stood inside and it was ice cold and all of sudden I heard in the distance footsteps coming closer closer and more closer. All the way up to the back window. Then bam seen a bunch of ectoplasm in the flash near the window. Something walked right up to the window and peaked at me when I was inside the cabin it was pretty intense. I then exited and finished taking photos of the carport then Tonya came out and had me go out to the garage and pool to take photos. There was a real gloomy feeling and the dog followed me around near the pool. It was nice to have a little friend with me while walking around taking photos. I enjoyed the pool it was surrounded by giant oak trees and it was real dark behind the garage. You could feel some energy back here including by the pool itself. Eventually I closed out the investigation and went back inside to discuss with Tonya my experiences outside I had investigating. It seemed most entities did actually stay outside the house. I did go back down into the basement alone it had a different feeling when I was by myself I mean there were ghost down here.  Especially in the one area I said boo area I worked with more and I will tell you at the end of that dark corridor there was some heebe jeebes lol. Eventually I took some photos and in one of the rooms I seen a ball of light then closed out the investigation. Tonya and I were upstairs in the bedroom hanging out when we heard a loud unknown bang downstairs. We ran down to check out what it was and there no evidence of anything to make such a loud noise downstairs below her room. We did find her moms picture on the floor in one of the dens she thought that was odd. So yeah definitely alot of activity inside the mansion as well as outside. Before I left Tonya took out her digital and wanted a souvenir ghost photo. She asked if I could take a ghostly digital photo in her back yard because she wanted to make a poster for her collection. She sent me outside she was a little spooked and my first photo I took with her digital was a massive ectoplasm shot with three faces in it all staring at me. I ran back upstairs to tell her and she was like your back already hahahaha. She was amazed I said to her can you find a harder to favor to ask of me or task next time. She then printed it and made it into a glossy photo she was pretty excited. Eventually the sun came up I took some photos on the grounds and outside then headed home. I am very tired it was a long paranormal night and tonight we are going out of town to do quite a few places so I will not be back till tomorrow morning. So hopefully before I go I can get some articles and ghost stories out on the message boards because tonight should be another thrilling night. In conclusion to the report there was activity at all three places and when the site is updated you will see some of the best ghost photos in the world trust me when I say this. I worked very hard on these places last night and it was an all night affair so I cannot wait to share this with others especially the plantation. Peace, Rick
