The Setting
Central Oklahoma, Oklahoma City
We were contacted about this house via Email. They stated in the email that they were having activity throughout the house and needed assistance. I (Logan) made phone contact with them and got the details on what was going on. The house consists of Larry, Debbie, Ashley and Mookie.
Larry and Debbie have been married for 25 years and have two children Ashley and Mookie. They have been living at the residence for the past 15 years. About two weeks after moving into the house, they found a clock in the attic. This clock appeared to be and older model clock that you would wind up. They decided to use the clock and set it on the fireplace mantel. Strange things began happening after the clock was activated in the home. The family began hearing their names called out. Some of the family members were physically attacked by an unseen presence. Others would have the sensation of being touched. Objects would disappear then reappear in the exact same spot they were left.
They finally decided they would get some assistance and find out what was going on so they contacted us. I talked with Ashley and set up a time that Erik, Laura, and I could go out for a preliminary investigation. I set up a time and date. We arrived at the house and introduced ourselves. We talked with Larry and Debbie briefly to gather more information about what was going on. After the discussion we started our first sweep of the house. In the dining room area we encountered an interesting EMF reading at several locations of the room. All of the readings were very high. We also noticed a high EMF reading at the end of the hallway when the hallway light was on. We made our way through the house taking readings and video documenting the sweep. We conducted a small sitdown session in the main living room area. No noticeable anomalies to report.
When we reviewed the first tape of the walkthrough, we did capture some strange things on film. A light anomaly in the main living room area was spotted in the movie. Also there was a point where Erik was walking down the hallway and the hallway light appeared to have come on by itself. We conducted a second investigation of the home sometime after that only this time Logan had an idea. He asked if he could take the clock home with him and monitor the activity at his house. This was a rather difficult task since his home is already haunted.
A few weeks passed before the clock was returned. Logan reported several things happening that revolved around the clock. Once he was his bathroom in his bedroom and he heard a noise. He walked out of the bathroom and the clock door was open. This door was latched prior. It somehow came unlatched (which isn.t easy) and opened on its own. There was another time he reported the clock made a strange noise, he followed with a comment to the clock, then his door started shaking violently. He unlocked and opened the bedroom door to find no one in the hall or in the house for that matter. Another time he awoke to find spiders all over the room. When he got up and turned the lights on.nothing was there. The clock has since been returned to the residence. We will be checking back with the homeowners to see if anything new has been happening with the house and/or clock.
Interviews
Larry's Interview:
Born in 1958 in OKC. Larry and Debbie have been married for 25 years. They bought their current house from Jane Thompson 15 years prior. They moved in the house in January and found an old antique clock in the attic. Since then the family had been hearing and seeing strange things but they didn't talk about it. Larry would leave for truck driving on Thursdays and come back and the clock's pendulum would stop. The striker for the "ding" would be bent out forward. Occasionally you would hear your name being called. Debbie's friend blessed the house. A seance was performed in house by oddball friend. Larry's father passed away 6 years ago. He has felt his presence in the back seat of his car once. He also heard his father say his name in the attic. He had an OBE in the hospital when he had spotted fever. One night he called the spirits out. The spirit said "get out" very deep and dark voice. The spirit grabbed him by the throat and held him up against the wall. After that he left the home and went across the street. He saw a lady in white standing at the foot of his bed who woke him late one night. The lamp also came on by itself once.
Ashley Du's Interview:
Born in 1983 She also moved in the house 15 years ago. On night she was setting on the floor and heard a noise outside and heard her name called twice from outside. This was her first experience. She was creeped out. She has seen things out of the corner of her eye. Something flicked her earring one night while she was watching TAPS. Heard knock type sounds all through the house. And finally, several times she quoted "I don't know, I don't know"
Debbie's Interview:
Born in 1962 in OKC area. She experienced light switch coming on by themselves. Something touched her ear as she was laying in bed one night. She heard loud TV type noises coming home one day coming from inside the house. When she entered the house, everything went quiet. During the seance a friend saw an old woman's face in the window. She was wrapping Christmas gifts on the floor and her scissors disappeared. She then got up to get a new pair and the scissors returned to their original place.
