During investigations, we use a common paranormal tool called an Ovilus which is an electronic speech-synthesis device that "speaks" words based on the electromagnetic waves in the air via EMF. An EMF meter detects electromagnetic energy that measures varying energy types like AC/DC; the reading is higher when the field is stronger.
​
The Ovilus has an embedded database of words and uses the EMF readings in combination to create a number. This number references the database of words and the Ovilus "speaks" that word. Interestingly, an Ovilus can operate in a phonetic mode that reacts to EMF variations to create words that are not in the database. Often, the Ovilus responses to questions asked as part of an investigation are eerily accurate and/or have a direct relation to the question or situation.
During this investigation, In between questions, the recorder picked up a dog's growl. We did not know dogs had been kept in the room by the previous owners until revealing evidence to the current owners later on.
While in another room the Ovilus responded to a question with the name "Paul", after our cameraman repeats the name (Paul) in the Ovilus, there is a quiet, disembodied voice repeating the name "Paul". This was the name of the person with the dogs who was buddies with the former owner of the "gun shop next door" (which is the location that is now the owner's garage)!
While in this same room, as Jenn started to speak to the ether on why we were there, the camera shut off. Our cameraman asked spirit if they shut the camera off, could they do it again... several seconds later, the camera shut off. As our cameraman was moving over to turn the camera back on (evidence we didn't even know existed until listening to the recording later on), a disembodied voice breaks in between the cameraman's voice saying "it might be a recorder"...
A Ghost Hunt at the Park Plaza in Boston, MA
In January 2025, team members Jenn, Steve & Peanut visited the Park Plaza Hotel which has long been rumored to be haunted. The large lobby clock often has a ghostly aura, rooms 1012 & 303 are frequently noted to have unusual sounds/activity, and elevator one randomly appears on the 3rd floor with no one inside...
During this investigation, Jenn and Steve used the Ghost Radar app which detects electromagnetic energies, sounds, and vibrations; including logging words it detects. However, before even being able to ask questions the app began sensing and tracking words!
Also in January, they investigated the Titanic exhibit which was deeply stirring. The most chilling experience for Jenn was the lone workman's boot on display. he was down in the burner room and never stood a chance after impact...
