Roger's Christmas House
 
Beast and I drove all over looking for Springhill Cemetery took us probably almost two hours. It was funny because I had two sets of directions to it and both were wrong lol. Its not that its hard to find its that its easy to miss especially at night. We had to just play trial and error going down dirt roads...parking on dead ends shining our spotlights...etc
 
After driving down this long eerie woodsy road we met up with Mike and his GF. Mike is a good friend of Beasts so I thought it was cool that we were adding more people to our adventure.
 
We met up at the gas station and I was getting some hot dogs and a KrispyKreme Doughnut. Beast had got a couple hot dogs to we ate them in the parking lot took a break its something I tend to do on a lot of my trips will stop get coffee...food etc no rush ya know!
 
After this we again went looking for the cemetery no luck it was funny we pulled down this overgrown road and it dead ended at this guys house. Trust me it was not fun trying to turn around knowing uncle buck might come out with his shotgun haha. It was all good fun as they followed me down different roads. Eventually we took a break jumped onto the Roger's Christmas House investigation.
 
When we arrived here the pub nearby was kicking strong women were outside partying...people were out walking..drinking etc the village we were visiting has also ghost stories but its a must see as well. Its a all year around xmas village each home is historical.
 
We were disappointed that it was no longer vacant but we still walked the premises as Beast said its the type of place you could bring a friend and just find serenity at. The village is very private high fences all around and you cannot see a thing till you enter it.
 
It was very quiet in the village accept for the bar and hearing beer bottles being thrown out. The interesting thing about this place is that it has 5 large historical homes all of them either connect with halls or porches and in the center of this place is the gardens.
 
I am not sure there was any activity here I mean we looked in one of the basements under one of the houses...the grounds had an eerie feeling especially when we looked in different windows and seen wax figures and things. The grounds were beautifully done with a little water mill...tables...historical antiques and decor. One of the houses a shadow of an object was casts upon the wall which looked like a pirate skull no lie...even beast thought it was odd.
 
I felt a lot of people and quiet here although the one house seemed older then the rest. Perhaps it was more dreary then haunted seeing dim lights on...xmas figures...a computer running...etc Mike had to go with his gf so they could not stay for this investigation wish he got to see this place I thought it was a pretty good find.
 
I took EVP here and a lot of photos....as we traversed down various board walks...and exploring the various structures on site. I could not resist the beard went on what can I say its the holidays lol.
 
Anyway's another historical site another investigation in the books. I did hear something near one of the buildings on site who knows what it was sounded like movement maybe hard to say though. We then moved on to the best investigation of the evening which was Chinsegut Hill & Manor.
