Investigation
results: For our investigation
we took pictures in and around the house and the mounds. We also
set up a video camera in the attic where frequent activity is
reported, but we did not capture any anomalies.
Impressions from Bronnenberg House by sensitive
investigator:
I picked up on a lady, in a bonnet, with two young
girls, that hang around the garden area (both present
and past). The lady is
upset
because the present garden is overgrown with weeds and needs
to be tended to. I feel she and the girls occupy
the bench in front
of
the garden. I picked up on a girl around the cedar tree in
front of the house, that was hurt at one time (very
strong emotions
overcame me in that area from her). I also picked
up an older black man
(torn shirt, bib overalls or trousers with suspenders, and
barefoot) in
the front room where the display case was. I felt he was a
transient at one time, farm worker but unsure if
he belonged there. Another
person from our group said he was a runaway slave from the
underground railroad in the area, which would make
him transient. I also
picked up on an older gentleman (black suit with
vest, gold pocket watch
chain, balding, with facial hair (mousache/beard), patriarch
of the house, that is concerned with the final
use of the house, he
was
concerned that it might be torn down. These entities are still
with the house. Some spirits are attached to the "attic" because
of the energy associated with the crystals in the box by the
window in the room. I feel there was another structure on the
property
where the house now stands, possible small cabin.
I noticed a couple of people being affected by the drain on them
by the spirit activity.
This is the
attic room, where they seem to get a lot of activity.
This is the root cellar.
